So all of a sudden you are swamped with oscilloscopes?! Nice! ---

Oh great, I thought this was a YAFO post 😉 Just kidding, you can never have too much measuring equipment. I wonder whether GAS is something that electronics engineers suffer from as well. P.s. YAFO = yet another free oscilloscope ---

Now all you need is a BOM, but problably the panels are neatly organised and all components are written down (I really love the way Sam does the lay-out, super build friendly) ---

I Nice Haul, is that just general stock or all allocated to BOMs 😉 ---

There are a couple of mysteries, will wait on the official list as there was a lot of experimentation involved. I won’t be using Alpha Pots, same as Sam went for cheap ones. ---

some allocated… most… lol Liquid Foam. a bunch of ciat-lonbarde pcb’s are on the way. err… i thinks thats it… I still have a dual Novadrone that i need to build but the BOM for that fucker is like 90 bucks. ---

A few AMS1117 5V to 3.3V buck convertors and a box of assorted trimmer resistances. ![IMG_20200827_113043478](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/lookmumnocomputer/original/2X/6/6f295ce56da94a53777fe0274bbdf98cfc139ed5.jpeg) ---

AMS1117 are not buck converters (switching regulators), they are linear regulators, less noisy, less efficient. ---

I was misled by some guff on an eBay listing. I did look at the data sheet, though, it’s what the term “buck convertor” means that I was hazy on. I’ve got these gadgets and I could also use S9V11F3S5C3 from the +12V rail. I really want to use the +5V on the Mean Well RT-65B, however, because it’s got a full 5 ampères behind it. ---
