I just got these boards in the mail, and had my daughter solder one up to test it.

Rick made me do it. I swear. It's for his upcoming drawbot class. We needed a board that his students could solder together, so we came up with this. Basically a breakout board for the Fubarino SD, it includes 12 RC servo headers, 15 GPIO 3-pin headers (ground, power, signal), 5V switcher power supply, two H-bridge chips for the two stepper motors, and an FTDI header for UART connection. Sockets for both Fubarino SD and Fubarino Mini. Anyway, the design files and sample sketch seen in the video are on the Fubarino Gitbub site. [url]https://github.com/organizations/fubarino[/url]

Thanks Brian. I'm really excited to use it. I just introduced it to Fubar Labs in our something cool segment.

Does this mean its a daughter board?
