If you've been building electronic bits or modifying stuff you've bought then tell us all about it here. A good place to discuss the installation of 2.4GHz DIY modules too.

Part one of this build is presently uploading (a 2-hour upload -- ugh!)

Any questions, comments, critiques etc can be posted here and I'll do my best to answer them.

Definitely too picky with your video, wait until you see my all thumbs efforts :)
Yes put me down for a kit and when the boards become available I will buy locally for components. Dead set keen to get this up and running :)

I'm doing some pricing on the bits now and it looks as if a "bag of bits" will come to about $25 plus the commercially produced PCB (which I'm hoping will be somewhere around US$5 or so).

I'll have a better handle on the price once I get an idea of the numbers -- since there are pretty good bulk-discounts on most bits - although I already have hundreds of some components already.

I'll put up the EagleCad files when Part 2 is finished rendering (it's all on the same machine) and I'll include some PDFs as well for those who don't want to be bothered installing EagleCad just for this project.
