View ArticlePowering Skywriter with 5V
Hi there, From the datasheet I see, that the Skywriter is powered by 3.3V via VCC - that works nice on an Arduino Nano. Because of reasons I am switching to the Pro Micro which in my case runs on 5V...
View ArticlePowering Skywriter with 5V
The Skywriter ( full sized ) has an onboard 3.3v low dropout regulator, so it'll work with either a 5V or a 3.3V power supply. All of the data lines are level shifted, so they'll also be fine. So,...

Strangely it did turn out to be the Audio options in RetroPie itself. I say strangely because I never had to change anything when I first built the PiCade with the 8inch screen because everything just...
View ArticleRun out of ideas why I have no sound
I havent installed mine yet. Just took it out the box and would definately say it has a screen protector on it (standard for most screens). Looks tricky to get off though.
View ArticleRun out of ideas why I have no sound
I was thinking that screen protectors came as standard too. I got to the point where I actually stripped the PiCade down and removed the screen again to have a good look and there does seem to be a...
