More sweet, sweet PICAXE goodness

It appears February 14th is almost upon us, and it's an event that holds emotional significance to the very fibre of our souls. So to celebrate GPS Day (or Oregon Day or Death of the First Cloned Mammal Day or First Serbian Uprising against the Ottoman Empire Day or Department of Commerce Day) we decided to share the joyous glory that is a PICAXE Starter Pack. We've added the following kits to our PICAXE lineup:

You'll notice that these include serial cables. Don't you USB folks worry - we'll be adding similar packs soon that have your flavour of cable. Mmm, cable flavour...

From all of us at Solarbotics/HVW Technologies, have a great February 14th!

New! Servo2 and RM1a motors

We've got in an inventory of Grand Wing Servo S03N standard servos. These pack quite a bit of power, and prove to be pretty good for standard servo applications. We're sorry to say that the RM1 is no-more. The RM1 is dead; long live the RM1. (I never understood that phrase...) All hail the RM1a! […]
