A real good Arduino kit cheap, many components are to begin and quality.
The labdec plate (or breadboard) comes with double pre-glued face if you want to embed in a skate board tests with a terminal block or other.
About all components are equipped with holes for fixing them to what you want, or integrate your end devices.
I will renew with Funduino again! Especially to buy new Mega cards (we quickly found lacking pine with UNO model) and Nano (for my final editing).
Classified information for novices:
Allow the soldering iron to weld the smith connectors on the LCD that are delivered not welded to the tracks (16 welding points to, it take 1 minute stopwatch, nothing complicated).
To use the LCD, plan 6 pin on the Arduino. Think about that for large projects.
For remote sensor, you should download Ultrasonic.h library and add it to Arduino software (it is not present base). Some examples are included to see the operation.
FOR DRIVERS:
On funduino, there is no specific driver provided.
Simply install the Arduino IDE by clicking the "Install USB drivers" check the installation: it is the same as the official map, and it works very well.
Do not also forget to put pull-down resistors of 1 or 10 kOhm between your buttons and ground, otherwise the card starts to completely delirious (I got screwed at first).
Regarding LED RGB is a common anode. So you need to connect it to the card by the three cathodes (of course with resistance) by reversing the states: 1 to turn off, 0 to turn. The anode is connected directly to 5V.
Anyway, I read a microcontroller did not like sending power but preferred to receive. It is therefore advisable to proceed in this manner including conventional diodes.
Also, when you make an upload, it is advisable to disconnect the pin 0 and 1: I happen that the card no longer responds to the Arduino software if I do not. They are accompanied TX and RX mentions, I guess it has a link.
Last thing for those who want to vary the LED and play with duty cycles (analogWrite function): there are only 6 pins that have PWM support of the 14 available. The others only allow classical outputs 0 or 1.
The pin in question are marked with ~ on the map. :-)
