I am an engineer in trade now for over 15 years and it felt like Christmas when the hackpack arrived. Amazing integration and made me feel like a kid again.
I can see where you’re trying to go with this, but these videos are more meant to be tutorials on how to assemble what’s inside the boxes, not for entertainment.
Awesome project. I’m a data scientist and have been coding in Python and R for almost 10 years. I’ve been wanting to get into arduino for several years now but haven’t known where to start. Just finished building it and I’m hooked! My 3rd grade son has been doing crunch labs since the beginning and has grown immensely, but is wanting to learn more about coding. Hack packs will be the perfect project for us to work on together.
just received and assembled mine. i'm so glad that you developed an adult version of the kiddie projects. even though i've been coding since a billion years ago, i've never programmed a microcontroller and servos 😊
I'm really glad this is public because when i saw the price i thought it was WAY too expensive and just a "youtuber tax" but after watching this and looking up prices for relevant parts I am really glad to see that this is priced reasonably and is extremely well put together and thought out. keep doing the great work. Although i might not buy it, this is an amazing product and gives me inspiration on small projects i can setup for myself to better my knowledge in microcontrollers.
this is just beautiful. the first crunch lab build kits teaches us about pure mechanics while hackpack combines the mechanical side of the product with electronics side. ❤
I recently got a micro bit which is a small device you can code thats kind of like the Arduino but smaller and comes with buttons and sensors and I'm thinking of coding the micro bit to work with every single one of these Hack Packs
There are 6 on the cylinder, evenly spaced so that firing one is just a single 60-degree spin of the cylinder to move the clip holder over the launch trip.
@@clintsimmons1786 My understanding is you can't spin RC servo by exactly-or-approximately 60 degrees because the potentiometer got removed from the servo to enable 360-degree movement.
@@sarun37823 yea, that seems true. The single-push is just spins it in approximately that amount. If you hold the push longer it spins more, do a quicker push and it'll take 2 pushes to move it past the trigger point.
@@GetYourRyOn I verified that the battery worked too in some other remote I had. This was after connecting the board to my computer and downloading the necessary drivers. I put everything back and reconnected the power supply and it just worked.🤷
Love the idea can you make one we’re u can buy own parts and just have instructions, just don’t have a lot money would be awesome to get into these projects.
hey mark, you might want to make a video about building your own 50 mill subscriber plaque on your mark rober channel with another youtuber. make it look like a piece of engine complex mechanical device or whatever
