Hi! I just Reviewed the funding rejection and changed some stuff:
Updated the BOM.csv with cheaper stuff to reduce the total price from 581 USD to around 496 USD
Worked for like 1.5 hours just on remodeling Atlas in blender, with a proper airfoil for both the Elevators and the Main wings. Aside from that, I also added cutouts on the bottom, Landing gear and the twin DC motors to visualise what it would look like
fixed shi
+2^28989348 aura gained IT LOOKS SO PEAK
Logged extra hours i didnt know u could link more hackatime projects to one stardance project
key features added:
Google Authentication (tied to real user UIDs & emails)
Auto-resizing image uploads (bye-bye 1MB Firebase crash)
Intro clip
WhatsApp-style voice recorder
No clunky reloads on chat delete/switch
Dedicated Operator Dashboard to handle incoming messages
Actual hosting so u can try it:
https://megpt-rosy.vercel.app/
I just finished adding a github repo, voice messages support, some easter eggs, and fixed a few bugs
you can also now send images! admin panel exists too. next i might add an account system
Please welcome meGPT!
talk to an ai (average intelligence)
i know everything
so far only text messages but soon imma add picture support and voice memo support
Started in the schematic, nets tangled in a knot
ERC flagged fifty pins that I completely forgot
Moved to PCB routing, but the traces wouldn’t fit
Clearance errors popping up on every single split
Gave up on the ratnest, threw the routing in the trash
Now I’m up in OnShape modeling with the big league class.
follow for more

yeah i cannot believe im saying this..
i kid you not this is the 4th time i had to rewire everything… FOR ANYONE who gets the same problem where ur diodes and switches get mixed up and ratnested i got this super neat code that u can use inside KiCADs scripter that i’ll paste at the end of this devlog. Overall 0/10 experience maybe because im so ahh at kicad but hey a maybe’s a maybe. peace out
code:
import pcbnew; board = pcbnew.GetBoard(); dx, dy = pcbnew.FromMM(19.1), pcbnew.FromMM(4); exec('switches = [f for f in board.GetFootprints() if f.GetReference().startswith("SW")]\ndiodes = [f for f in board.GetFootprints() if f.GetReference().startswith("D")]\nnet_sw_count = {}\nfor sw in switches:\n for p in sw.Pads():\n n = p.GetNetname()\n if n: net_sw_count[n] = net_sw_count.get(n, 0) + 1\nfor d in diodes:\n d_nets = {p.GetNetname() for p in d.Pads() if p.GetNetname()}\n for sw in switches:\n sw_nets = {p.GetNetname() for p in sw.Pads() if p.GetNetname()}\n shared = d_nets.intersection(sw_nets)\n local_nets = [n for n in shared if net_sw_count.get(n, 0) == 1]\n if local_nets:\n d.SetPosition(pcbnew.VECTOR2I(sw.GetPosition().x + dx, sw.GetPosition().y + dy))\n d.SetOrientation(pcbnew.EDA_ANGLE(90, pcbnew.DEGREES_T))\n break'); pcbnew.Refresh()
Worked on PCB
Hello! I just made the base schematic for my KeeBord
Modeling Atlas!
Today I modeled Atlas in blender, and now im going to test it’s Center of gravity to make sure it wont just nosedive!
Working On the Schematic and PCB
shopping list complete!
I just created by Bill of materials and submitted my project for approval. This might be stardance’s Most Expensive project ever, at 581.715 dollars!
Please Welcome Atlas!
Today marks the very first day that I begin work on This new project. I made this plan for funding. My estimate is that it will cost around $350 USD ish give or take! Also mods if u read this u could prolly find all the electronics on this website called flite test. CYA IN THE NEXT ONE!
Added the final touches!
-> Uploaded it to itch.io
-> got rid of the caving system
-> TRIED TO add phone support
Time to SHIPPP
Fixed minor bugs, got rid of docking mode, might get rid of cave system (FINAL FINISHES!!)
