Laser Cut Cases


Did you know you can laser cut a smart looking case for your RC2014? The design files are up on Thingiverse for you. Looks great in modern perspex or traditional wood.

Keyboard case design files are up there too!

New Modules. New Options. New Possibilities!

The first RC2014 was sold over 8 months ago and in that time there have been a lot of new modules added, such as the ever popular Digital I/O Module.  Other items, such as the Universal Micro Keyboard which was designed with the RC2014 in mind have proved useful for other uses too.  
If you haven't been back to Tindie since you bought your RC2014, here's a good excuse to visit - a 5% discount if you use the voucher code NEWSLETTER5 before the end of July

New Pi Zero Module

The Pi Zero Module has been updated with extra features.  PCBs are at the fab house at the moment, and should be available on Tindie some time next week.
Add yourself to the waiting list to get notification when they're in!

Community Support

Google Groups and GitHub are starting to become vibrant parts of the RC2014 infrastructure.  Why not join up today?
One happy customer, Ken Boak, wrote a blog post about his RC2014.  Did you see it?
I know a lot of you did by the spike in sales just as Y Combinator featured it on their Hacker News page.  For those of you that missed it, here's a link;

RC2014 Public Debut

Last month saw the public debut of RC2014 at Liverpool MakeFest.  The event was a great success and attendees loved the RC2014 - particularly Filippos port of Snake to the platform.
