Questions

How big is the Meshbot kicad v1 PCB?

It measures 88 × 72.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Meshbot kicad v1 use?

37 parts, built around the WIO-SX1262. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Meshbot kicad v1 KiCad files?

From the waterbearfieldschool/mesh-bot repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is v1/hardware/meshbot_kicad_v1/meshbot_kicad_v1.kicad_pcb and its schematic v1/hardware/meshbot_kicad_v1/meshbot_kicad_v1.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Meshbot kicad v1 design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask waterbearfieldschool before reusing the design.
