Need a fun, kid safe summer project? The Getting Started with Compressed Air Rockets kit from the Maker Shed is perfect for young makers! Just a few pumps of a bicycle pump (not included) will send homemade rockets blasting 200-300 feet into the air! Perfect for families, summer camps, neighborhoods, or just for fun. High quality parts are built to last for years and thousands of launches.
I’ve been working with the pre-release version of the cable for a couple of months now and I’ve put up some sample code to get you started. Including a rather nifty Universal application for the iPhone and iPad which will let you directly control an Arduino board. I’ve dubbed it the “Paduino.”
