Now I'm a member of group dialout I can use the file option without being root, 1 partial success still getting the following output Logging to /home/phil/.cache/mu/log/mu.log QApplication: invalid style override passed, ignoring it. Flashing Python to: /media/phil/MICROBIT/micropython.hex QXcbConne...

I'm always reluctant to install anything that can't be achieved by sudo apt-get install ... I've just tried clicking download for linux and followed instructions to make it executble. added myself to group dialout logged out and back in for that to take effect. Running mu as a normal user yielded th...

Has anyone got a sucess story? I downloaded the zip from github and un zipped it. I then typed pip3 install -r requirements.txt this nearly worked first time, but i had to use sudo apt-get install ... and re-ran pip3 install ... I now have a partially working Mu ide. Issue 1: file only works if i'm ...

Microbit micropython has a radio module. import radio Do any of these other micro controlers which feature micro python also support it. I'd like to make a remote control robot using my laptop or a raspbery pi as the joystick Does python 3 suport this radio comunication, the only projects i find for...

You can only get blue tooth working in languages other than micropython.
It's only the initial program and other downloadable images which csn be used to get pairing mode up and running. Simply holding down a and b then pressing reset wont work if you've flashed a program onto the microbit

Using google.co.uk search for 'lancaster university microbit' i found c++ resources there. I haven't tried any of it as i don't know c++ and have been unable to get any flashing software for linux

3v from 5v can easily be achieved with a voltage divider made up of a 3k resistor and a 2k resistor. Connect the 2 resistors in series between gnd and 5v. The voltage across the 3k resistor will be 3v and similarily 2v across the 2k resistor. Because the current drain of a microbit is a few milli am...

Bug 1: x=accelerometer.get_values()
Should read x=accelerometer.get_x()

Bug 2:aswell as display.scroll(...) you need to use radio.send("message") also a consumer micro:bit will need message =radio.receive()
