Hello Dough,

As I am fascinated by the stirling engines too, I have followed with special attention the evolution of your project. I have a question about. What about the software? Did you plan or already provided somewhere a repository with the software parts? What platform and language did you used for the micro:bit? For the PSoC I suppose that you have approached the native PsocCreator...

Great project Douglas.

You did a great job of explaining everything you did and I do like the TNT terminal. It has a lot of potential uses.

Well done.

Excellent wrap up to a very interesting project. It seems that the TNT project in itself is fulfillment of the BT challenge.

It will be interesting to see where this beginning will take you.

Thanks for sharing all this good work!

Superb finish to the project : ) I'd never seen a Stirling engine before.

The TNT actually reminds me of one of the very popular home computers here at one time - the ZX81 : )

The heart of your design, the Micro:bit, is several orders of magnitude more powerful!

Well done.

It was impressive to see the progress, and yes the Micro:bit TNT is something taht has more potential ... after all not everyone has a Stirling engine [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-66fde846-f899-4da7-88ad-d7ef0baa77c5/contentimage_5F00_938.png:16:16]

It seems that this Design Challenge could have been slightly longer.

The object was to stretch the use of BT and for that the common of the shelf solutions were minor.
