Full Motion Home Flight Simulator: Go “Virtually” Anywhere!
Go “virtually” anywhere with your own homebrew flight simulator.
Graphical plotting, data acquisition, and control software for your microcontroller.
How would of Nikola Tesla have designed his famous coil if he had been able to access modern day electronic parts? Here’s one idea.
While originally created for a specific purpose, this basic “notification” circuit can be implemented in many different applications.
Decade boxes allow users to dial in precise amounts of electrical resistance to be inserted into a circuit they’re designing. Original boxes had faceplates with the values printed on them, but extra math was always involved. Here’s a handy update to that reliable piece of equipment.

Total Eclipse of the Cross Compiler
The BeagleBone Black and Raspberry Pi are different in many ways. They are also alike in many ways. However, when it comes to programming them, the equalizer appears in the form of a Linux-based GNU cross compiler toolchain running under the umbrella of an Eclipse IDE.
A MAKER’S DOZEN: Designing Around Failure
by Bryan Bergeron
When it comes to DIY, it's not really a "failure rate" but a learning opportunity.
