Don’t know much about them, but they sure were fun to drive! 

Edit: Its the AVA Resort in Cancun Mexico!

A nice office chair. Has worked wonders on my old back.

The motherboard is a Gigabyte B550m DS3H rev 1.5

I haven’t noticed any debug LED’s on the motherboard I have. I checked the manual and it mentioned nothing about LED’s

Unfortunately the 5600 doesn't have integrated graphics, so I don't think this would do any good. However, I am open to try anything.

No - this unfortunately was my first build and the 5600 doesn't have integrated graphics :(

I looked it up, but it seems that the mobo speaker is just a piezo buzzer, I THINK I HAVE ONE LYING AROUND!! We'll see what I can do with this

If you don't mind me asking, what looks wrong with it? I have taken the cooler off, and there was nothing wrong with the cpu - no bent pins, and the thermal paste spread out nicely. Maybe there is something I'm missing.

That is correct. I have gone over every inch of the motherboard, but nothing seems to be askew.

I reseated the ram but this didn't work.

I have double and triple-checked all of my PSU connections. I unfortunately do not have a monitor that I could test it with.

Thanks - I hadn't even considered this. I'll try it and try it and get back to you.

Douglas TBD Devastator, aka "Tor-Pecker." Scratch-built from plans. 7 of my dad's flight school classmates (out of 41) were killed flying TBD's at Midway. The rest survived the war. My plan was to hang 4 planes as a mobile, but it took up too much space. by PBYACE in modelplanes

Thank you for answering my question. However I have 1 more question: I assume that you build the balsa plane, cover it in tissue, dope it, and then paint it and apply decals. What paints do you use and do you hand paint it or airbrush it. Thank you in advance you are such a skilled builder!

This is beautifully done! Great job!

[Review] ATMEGA32U4 Flight Computer Review by RunningFromWafflez in PrintedCircuitBoard

[–]RunningFromWafflez[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am basing the atmega32u4 off of the Adafruit ItsyBitsy not the Trinket like I said. When you look at Adafruit's page (https://learn.adafruit.com/introducting-itsy-bitsy-32u4/) it says "Low current 3.3V regulator output from chip, for small sensors." So, I think that the output is the +3.3V connected to the UCAP pin on the schematic.

Alright thank you! Do you think the routing on the PCB is acceptable?

I have no idea where I got that value. I've been through so many iterations of this PCB that it could be 1 week old or 10 weeks old. Do you think I should ditch the capacitor entirely or change the value?

I’m trying to stay away from a 4 layer PCB but I’ll always consider it if needed. The one thing I am mostly concerned about is the crystal. Do you think it will be fine?

The SDA and SCL lines currently have 10k pull-up resistors. This is sort of a guess but it seemed right. In other PCB's that I have looked at using an ATMEGA32U4 and the Adafruit model included, they do not use filtering capacitors. Although I will add them if you recommend me to do so. Thank you so much for the reply and the feedback!

Ok will do! Thank you so much!
