Love my M5 stuff. Great form factor with an ESP32, a screen, and all sorts of other bits. Great vid.

Thanks for the video Matt. Keep safe and stay well.

Fabulous!

thank you for the review, I bought one for myself, and It sure is a very nice product. I loving it

Thank You

Nice, thanks Mat.

Yes, it's a lovely little unit - late to the party I'm testing it right now over at my blog - that spectrum viewer is lovely. About the only thing that concerns me right now is - it gets quite warm so I'm not entirely sure it'll do 2 hours on battery.

The best part is the price! I can source the non plus version, which has a slightly smaller screen and battery, and no buzzer for $11 from Digikey! Cheap enough to be disposable. I am using them in my robotics classes since they can be programmed from a chromebook. They've been a godsend for remote and hybrid school technology classes (at least for me). The plus is $13, but stock is limited now so I'll have to wait for next year.

I got an M5StickC-Plus based on your video (thank you, cool device!) and spent far too much time trying to get into the menu. I don't believe you mentioned that it wasn't running the stock firmware (or if you did I missed it). In any event, you might mention that (and provide a pointer to the code if available).

I bought one for myself, and have been experimenting with it. Overall, a great value and very capable microcontroller + display + sensors. However, it does have a number of flaws (according to sources I've been checking online). (1) The battery never completely turns off, it goes into deep sleep instead, and depletes constantly, i.e. one day it'll die (probably sooner than you'd want). (2) The device isn't 5V-safe for sensors/external electronics that you connect to it. (3) It uses up a lot of the I/O on the internal modules, and so there are less pins available for your own external electronics. [I know you can connect multiple devices in series using I2C, but that means paying for a bunch of I2C kit rather than simpler, cheaper sensors.] (4) Being fairly new to the market, the amount of example code is limited (time of writing: Feb 2021) so it isn't as easy to work with as a more established MCU.

Very cool! Found your post on reddit too. How may input buttons does it have?

The grove port is officially a digital io/i2c port however, You can run 2 servos on it

How do u get in to the menu

i have a code that was programmed for the older version of stick c. Will it work the same on the PLUS?

Its very good value for its price but most of us who will watch this video, the user groups most likely will find it very limiting, I would suggest people get the m5stack core2. It would be good for people who have been to microbit and other esp boards but not comfortable to handle too many pins and complicity like esp32 dev or m5stack.

We need a tutorial for the ESP32 Marauder M5StickC Plus! For dummies! pls :D

can i have this code?

Hello from France! ^:^ You think it's possible to turn transparent the screen by removing the reflective sheet? @^:^@ I have seen on UKposts some hacks (write on the "search": turn transparent lcd) Thanks buddy and take care ^:^

M Stuck..lol
