I had about 24 hours of downtime while moving to a new host. Everything should work now. Also upgraded WordPress to the new 2.1 version at the occasion, which is very nice. The new host offers 2TB monthly transfer which is good for many high-resolution pictures and perhaps new videos 😉

Instructions for connecting regular R/C servos to DSerial have been posted to NaWiki. Servos not only make good actuators — they are also easy to hack for continuous rotation turning them into very cheap geared motors with built-in electronics.

I have released a sample firmware and DS program for DSerial. It’s a simple serial console and it also shows tilt. Files are available at NaWiki

Also, MrShlee was very kind to create a DSerial forum on dev-scene.com.
