Questions

How big is the Controller PCB?

It measures 120 × 125 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Controller use?

32 parts. 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 Controller KiCad files?

From the xlair-dev/controller repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is v1/pcb/v1.kicad_pcb and its schematic v1/pcb/v1.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Controller design in my own project?

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