@JWoody18 - I LOVE this.
If I may, I think the topic title is in reference to possibly going away from the Arduino.
Bar can weight in, but I didn’t see $500 specifically referenced, although, even cheaper would be better, right (regarding keeping the price as low as possible)?
Also, in case you missed it (I did), here Bar’s topic “Musings on a new design” that lays out some goals going forward.
Right now, the community is in the ideation stage. Lots of options. The giants in the room, who’s shoulders newbies like me stand on, are thinking about the options and possibilities. I’m very excited and hope to someday be able to contribute more on their level.
Also, I regret to say, this was not me. I started with 12’ top bar.
Best
