Homebrew FX Chrony display

[bigHUN]

I still use my original version from then and havent touched it lol.

I swap my Impact MK2 from .25x700 to .22x600 and different twist rate, so... I was thinking to show it on the screen...nomore arduino updates for me.
But now the .22 MRDs have different revisions and I would need to buy a bigger pack to last me till end of the year. Will see how that goes first.

Estabais haciendo un trabajo impresionante, y perdón por la intromisión, pero me parece una pena que no sigáis con el proyecto.
solo la idea de poder integrar equipos de poco coste con otros como el radar FX nos aporta mucho a todos y sobretodo la capacidad de poder configurar las cosas que de verdad nos interesan, y queremos ver en nuestros dispositivos; para mi eso es lo valioso y lo que defería ayudar a que este hilo continue, y si alguien sabe como integrar en el desarrollo el v2 seria la bomba, gracias por vuestro trabajo¡¡¡.
Un saludo

Hi there, you late to that party, the project was fun but when finally finished the entire group just followed down the wind.
I still have mine and love it. Would I be able to restart from scratch? no way....

What a really cool project. Great job.

Same. I have all the programming and discord and such. I still use it some.

is it compatible with fx pocket chronograph v2 ?

discord server is expire ?

I built one back in 2022-23, could I do it again on my own? is a no way.
A group of very knowledgeable folks (electronics, programing, UI and coding) lead that project, I have not seen those names again for years.
Me lost the discord access as well long ago, you would need an invitation and may have a chance to resurrect if you have skills and know what you doing.

It looks like it might be possible to resurrect the M5StickC Plus part of the project. I know jack $#!+ about Arduino and the M5StickC, but I'm not afraid of bricking an M5StickC. From what I can tell, the .ino file for the M5StickC Plus is available, and there's a little bit of a learning curve to climb to learn how to upload the ,ino file into the stick. That might be a halfway house to Arduino, and I've been interested in trying that anyway.

The biggest problems I had was arduino auto updating = the libraries.
A wrong library even just the revision of that library and won't work because the coding was asking for a specific rev.
Obviously I am not a coder and I had to chase people to troubleshoot for me.
Disabled the auto update about two years ago when I last time loaded my own gun/amo specs into the radar and never touch it again
The M5Gray block I was using in the beginning as a fake shot generator only, but ones I got all my stuff sorted out the parts are deep somewhere in my drawers.

Sometimes, folks that are maintaining free software libraries don't feel particularly compelled to maintain backwards compatibility. Especially across major revisions. Even big companies (looking at you, Oracle) sometime make changes that break backward compatibility. "We never liked javax.activation being in the core libraries anyway, so we took it out. Good luck!"

I'm bringing myself up to speed on arduino, ESP32, etc, because among other reasons the libraries have changes, and some of the code is broken now. Plus I was wanting to dabble in arduino (ESP32 is very similar), and I thought that e-ink display was way cool.
