what kind of bored is that is it the "Arduino Mega AVR ATmega1280 USB board"

I dont see the meaning of having a small display on it on a rollercoaster, it's not like you're gonna sit and look at it all the time. I'd personally go with a memory of some kind, so I can look at it later.Also, if I'd used a nunchuck, I would've taken the casing of it, and then I'd mount it inside the yellow case.

you can buy a tri axis accelerometer from parallax. I they might have it in makershed as well. so you can lose the wii remote.

You can also turn any screw into a standard slotted or philips head screw with a dremel, That's what I usually do. :)

isnt it illegal to take a camera on a rollercoaster?

> slaterking1000 said on 05-29-2009 at 07:03:
Ye, it's fun trying to opening thing, you get that nice suspense to see what insides and how it works.

> freakybuzz said on 05-28-2009 at 21:30:
Glue, unidirectional screws, or voiding the manufacturer's warranty never stopped me from opening anything. :-)

> slaterking1000 said on 05-28-2009 at 17:20:
Would you want to be near a person with a yellow box??

> slaterking1000 said on 05-28-2009 at 17:19:
i own many things i cant open. simply because there glued shut. So that phrase is pointless.

> slaterking1000 said on 05-28-2009 at 17:16:
will this work with any type of screw?
