Thank you so much. An engineer talking like an engineer to budding engineers. Suscribed! (From a 71 yr old Engineer)

A great start to get my Pico W up and running. As a retired engineering lecturer I really do appreciate the detail and the complete steps given, so many other lessons gloss over the "bits" one really needs to know. Many thanks and I have subscribed 🙂

Quite helpful, thanks

This is super useful, subscribed! Ordered a Pico W today because it was available, but was all at sea regards header pins and installing micro python … you guided through the process so completely and helpfully (you could easily have left out a step in the process in assuming knowledge of this or that, but I’m very grateful you didn’t 😊)

awesome video! really helped me connect the dots as to what was happening throughout the process.

Thanks for this nice video, I’m glad it popped up in my iTunes feed this morning. I’m glad you started with the soldering of the headers. Frankly I bought a pico with the headers on already because while I have soldered in the past, I’m intimidated by it. I think I’ll try again. As for editors, I started with Mu, and I really like it. I use it for my Microbit, adafruit boards and playing around with python. I’m just a retired novice having fun learning.

Love Love Love your video. So simple to follow. I am hitting the subscribe and a thumbs up I has already selected before. Thank you for your time. God bless and have a great day.

Nice video! Simon Monk is quickly becoming my favorite author. He writes a lot of good books on programming and electronics.

Well done!

wow i like you the you teach is clam clear stredie remind me of a shcool teacther like you are the 1 person on here that i really under stood the way you speak very slow and very detailed not like you was in a rush to go some were i got a bunch of boards the pico iv had for two years and havent been able to do anything but thank you for being a wonderful teacher so you now have a new sudent and fan of your channel i hope to learn more from you i have all kinds of unos r3 heltec wifi boards even just got a lilygo with like 4 diffrent chips and a pico in it like that one is the koolest

Thanks this is useful information & this is what I was searching

Subscribed. Been setting up a Raspberry Pi "lab" and tools for electronics (breadboards, resistors, soldering...) recently and I wanted to include a bit of Pico W at some point.

I enjoyed your video :) and subscribed thank you for making this content.

Great tutorial 👌

Great stuff. I am surprised you don't have more subscribers,

Nice

one extra step I do before soldering is to rub the contacts lightly with a fine emery cloth or other light abrasive to remove a layer of oxidation on the solder tabs. that really makes the solder flow better. also .8mm 37/63 solder but I also use a lot of 60/40 multicore solder and have no problem using it instead of 37/63.

Which mac OS are you running ?
