Title: $50 robot programming help...
Post by: lololuv on March 27, 2011, 11:59:09 PM

Hi,

    I am currently working on the $50 robot.  I wonder if we can download the programming code without having to build the circuit first? and will there be a risk if we build the circuit and have the programming code downloaded into the microcontroller later?
   
    Thanks.  ^^

always good to do the easy(and free) part of getting software and program running before making the circuit

i am sure there is no risk
you will need to build the circuit first to program the chip (see you do the right wiring 10pin or 6pin depending on your programer)
