@Paul_de_Groot in that case, I’m happy to test it. Will help me learn more about these controllers and the machine

@Austin_Baker just drop me a pm with your address so i can mail it when i get my uno r4’s. Chinese new year now so l expect these in feb.

@Paul_de_Groot are you referring to the Elektor R4? R3 is the last official rev to my knowledge.

27

I have a simplified version that less complex. Works on the same atmel libraries. I also used the 328pb xplained from atmel but the footprint is a bit difficult.

Howdy. Address is 721 Ash St. Vandenberg AFB, CA 93737

Should I place an order for an R4?

@Austin_Baker no need to order an elektor r4 or atmel 328pb xplained sdk kit separately . The r4 is expensive to order from elektor. 24 euros plus 24 euros postage. I ordered 10 Home designed R4s from pcbway because i don’t have smd assembly tools and i get a professional assembled board. I have already xy axis driver shields for it. You have two options: i can send you an atmel xplained board plus shield now or my customized R4 plus shield in feb. i rather send a complete new set in feb so you can test it for me. Just pay me the postage cost which I believe is around the 23 usd.
