QShifter

HI I just found this site on the net and its great. I want to get into this hobby but i was wondering what the other users of this forum suggest for a begginer/intermediate level? I have experience in the following areas Remote Control Cars/servos/receivers/transmitters, mechanical assembly, lots of electronic knowledge such as 555 timer circuits and·LED blinkers, I have good knowledge on PC programing, HTML, DOS Basic.

I want a kit that would get be started but not at the lowest·level,·something thats in the middle.. so then i can acquire the knowledge and experience and work my·way up to my·own circuit programing and such.

Get our standard "What's A Microcontroller?" kit.· Here's the link:

With your skills and experience you will breeze through the easy parts and really get a lot out of the advanced material.· Once you've got a handle on programming and interfacing the BASIC Stamp microcontroller, our Nuts & Volts columns will give you lots of ideas.
