A 13 Year Old's Second mintyPi

[NarxElectronics]

Hello once again my fellow sudomodders! I'm back to log my progress on my second mintyPi. Now that I've got the time I decided to start it with my second Helder PCB (which was from the original 1st batch!) Now that I've built my first one, this build won't be even half as hard to pull off, now that I've got experience and knowledge under my belt.

Progress:

Sunday, September 24th, 2017:

Soldered my Pi to the PCB. What took me maybe a LONG time last build (if you're wondering how long, let's just say too long) took me approx. 20 minutes to do this time.



The battery monitor is slanted but doesn't matter because I tested and everything works. Oh, and please ignore the burnt L pad...it's something I don't want to explain

Still waiting for the rest of the parts to come.

What took me maybe a LONG time last build [...] took me approx. 20 minutes to do this time.

The sweet feeling of realizing how you progressed. Keep it up.

So what's up with the L-pad?

So what's up with the L-pad?

It's actually remnance of my first build, this was the pcb I originally used with my old horrible soldering iron, and I was just like screw and when I got the proper equipment I used the second PCB when I got proper tools..luckily I was able to use my hot air gun to desolder my pi and solder on a new one.

Good Luck!!!

Just keep in mind, soldering isn't about speed, its about accuracy. Take your time to ensure you get everything right.

Great to see you on another project. Keep it going
