I used 3x4700uF caps for it. I was tempted to go for some smaller ones I had but the bright blue color swayed me. I had made a bunch of different solar engines through the weekend and this one uses a flashing green LED. Not the most efficient but it worked. The motor … I can’t remember where I got it from, might have been solarbotics but it is the motor from a mini-cassette player. I added a bit of heat-shrink tubing to the spoke to give it a bit of grip.

I like those Symmets and yours looks really clean build.

However, would you mind to add some schematics and tips how to build it? I know, it’s basic lesson but some of our newcomers would really aprecciate it so they can just start from here without having to google the schematics somewhere else.

Very good, thanks. Yes I

Very good, thanks. 

Yes I know the hurry, sometimes it just gets me too. However, if you introduce your projects and you want people to re-build them, you might add as much pictures, schematics, PCB layouts, code…just all the stuff you want to see if you want to build something.

Oh, i forgot the priority one. Videos. People on LMR, called LMRians, are dying for videos. A project without videos are just not complete (That part you already fullfilled)
