Get Started in Electronics #1 - Elegoo Arduino Uno Super Starter Kit

Hello 3D Printing Friends! Today we'll take a look at the Elegoo Super Starter Kit, which Elegoo sent me, free of charge.

Let’s take our first tentative steps into the worlds of electronics and coding for the Arduino Uno! This is the smaller sibling to the Arduino Mega, which forms the basis of the RAMPS boards found in so many 3D printers.

We’ll start by getting the Arduino Integrated Development Environment installed on the computer, and then we’ll write a little bit of code to blink one of the LEDs built into the Uno.

Future episodes in this series will see us combining basic electronics and code, and as we gain experience, we can make ever-cooler things!

As an advance programmer, I came here to just see what the kit has to offer, but the way you teach and explain is so comforting in a word, I understood and digested everything you said and I wanted to know what you were talking about. Ik what you were going to teach, but I stayed because it was just so fun hearing you explain.

As a web developer this was a great tutorial for someone looking to expand their horizons into electronics. Very well spoken and organized, and still includes important info for beginners without boring the more experienced folks.

[TaylorBramble]

This guy has an excellent attitude and looks to know exactly what he's doing. Very good tutorials!

[badgerfool]

You are absolutely correct about the benefit of actually typing the code yourself and playing with it a bit, I had already programmed in an SOS message in Morse code before you suggested it so that made me chuckle. I'm just trying to get into electronics at the young age of 42 and like your teaching style so far.

[michaeledwards]

Thank you. I am a parent who ordered the kit for my son and then found your video. I got a lot out of your video with nothing in front of me. I hope my son finds your video as equally helpful. Thank you for your efforts!

After 2 years I finally have a chance to sit down and really enjoy this kit. Perfect video and presenter to ease your way in to the world of Arduinos.

[treyblakeandrew]

I’m taking a class that involves this stuff for my mechanical engineering degree, and I’ll admit it’s a little overwhelming at times, but this series makes it feel way more manageable

I've been wanting to learn code along with my 3d printing hobby. I think I found my teacher. Thanks Brian

[theborednerds]

Thanks for this, Bryan! Just bought two kits with your affiliate link. My partner is a software dev and is interested in electronics, but has no experience with hardware. We're going to go through 2 or 3 of your tutorials weekly as a date night and learn together!

Thank you so much for helping me get started with the kit ! It was really a moment of delight when I pushed the code through ( had to use a USB-C adapter as well since I'm on a new Mac) and seeing it actually work !

[mrdisco]

I just did lesson one with only one small hitch but I was able to get it to work. Thank you Bryan. This series is perfect for me.

I bought me that Elegoo set this Cyber Monday, i can not wait to his arrival, great videos.

[hatt_man]

I've been doing web dev and programming in general for close to a decade. Had I been introduced to your style of teaching in the beginning I'd probably have had a much easier start. This is a fantastic video and I've already ordered the kit through your link. I can't wait to start on the rest of the series!

[horrorgorecollector]

I'm a model builder and have wanted to learn this to add lights and sounds to my models. Its very confusing but you have taught it in a wY that educational and understanding. Thank you. Il watch all your videos now. This is my 3rd and 5 stars so far.

[Richardhickinfgresdgd]

I have had this kit for a few years now and haven’t touched it! this is really helpful and i am really into it now

[everywhirlingplanet]

This is wonderful, thank you! I had to purchase the kit for a show control class but we don't start up 'till next week (in a currently-unknown remote-learning-only situation) & I was super excited to get going. I had read through some of the guides but having someone actually explaining and showing you as your go is SUPER helpful.

[michaellloyd]

Going through this kit today preparing to sit with my grandson. So glad I came across your video. Excellent! How we're in the driver's seat.

[garysonner]

I received my Elegoo Super starter kit for Christmas. I set it up today and it worked as expected. I started searching YouTube and found your page. Enjoyed your presentation on setting up the Elegoo very much and looking forward to watching more of them. Great job in explaining everything clearly and concisely!

[OPTIONALWATCH]

I just got my kit as a Xmas present! I'm glad I found this getting started video. I'm now debating whether to use my Mac or Windows laptop.

[MatheusSilva-lgmu]

Awesome! I just bought this very same kit and I’m excited to start my projects. Great content!!
