Re: Hobby Components 8x8x8 Cube Kit (HCKITS0050)

I've just noticed that the text in the default patterns library are displaying upside down? Presumably all the patterns are upside down, it's just noticeable with text. Is it possible that you have the layers of your cube connected in the reverse order? Genius Andrew! I do indeed... many thanks. :)

I've just noticed that the text in the default patterns library are displaying upside down? Presumably all the patterns are upside down, it's just noticeable with text.

Thanks in advance.

Quick question for those out there more enlightened than I. Has anyone ever tried to have a completed 8x8x8 cube respond to a music audio source?

Many thanks Andrew.

Had a look at all the joints from the point of connection on the +ve supply line on layer 3 and found the culprit - simple dry joint! All working now 100%.

Re: Hobby Components 8x8x8 Cube Kit (HCKITS0050)

Hi, newbie here. First ever cube built, fingers firmly crossed and switch on. Works perfectly... well almost perfectly. Demo mode runs as expected but the first four rows of leds on layer 3 (32 in all) don't light, at any stage. Nothing obvious that I can see... any suggestions? I have multi-meter, ...
