I have yet to purchase any Raspberry Pi or Arduino project boards I want one that will be the only one I need to buy but there are so many. Which one?

well for me, I used arduino mega 2560 r3, arduino uno r3 & fez panda ii, but if I had chose only one of those to work with, I say the mega 2560 r3 it had much more extra pins & flash memory 256 KB (the uno 32KB & the panda ii 148KB). PS. arduino due has all the benefits of the mega plus more flush memory & clock speed if you don't want to buy this instant the arduino tre looks very interesting, but I don't know the release date they only say it's coming soon http://arduino.cc/en/Main/ArduinoBoardTre

As an alternative, you can get the whole thing from Canakit, here. t includes a pre-loaded SD card.CanaKit Raspberry Pi 2 Complete Starter Kit (9-Items)

i would think it would find it right away. i have a raspberry pi b+ and it was successful there( just tested 1/11/2015 ). so i don't see any reason it would not work. :-)

I would go with the data sheet numbers normally. But I drive one of these boards directly from an Arduino and never had any problem. So go figure.

Hey I actually have the exact same question. I just bought a TR4M to go with this board. What were your findings? I just tried booting it (I'm running Ubuntu off a thumb drive) and the system hung for a while before presenting me with a laundry list of conflicts. I'm curious, did you try this out? What did you end up doing?Thankya!

The chipset I received is the Somagic (chinese clone) chipset. For all intensive purposes, the chipset is not directly supported on the raspberry pi... I am looking to buy a different one.

Buyer beware, if it doesn't say Arduino on the device it's a knockoff. The crappy knockoff will not work with all versions of Windows without some driver issues. I had trouble with mine on Win 7 64bit I was only able to upload sketch programs twice, now it will not properly recognize the module at all in Windows, like the driver just disappears from the device manager as well as on the device itself. Some results vary with device version according to forums, but I recommend spending the extra $15 or so for the legitimate Arduino Nano module. It just works like it's supposed to. As far as I know there's no fix as of yet for the knockoff versions. Buyer beware, if it doesn't say Arduino on the device it's a knockoff.

The Raspberry Pi is only slightly larger physically than an Ardunio so it will fit on the chassis. I have never used a Raspberry Pi but I'm sure you can drive motors and use sensors with it given the right program.

Get one of the good Arduino study books with projects. I liked this one: Programming Arduino Getting Started with Sketches by Simon Monk. - Then march through each of the examples. Perhaps it's even better to get the Arduino starter kit. - I think that a mature 6th grader would do fine. That said, it would even be better to do as a project with a parent or older sibling.

I am not sure but there are all kinds of wiring diagrams and tutorials. I am using 2 currently with arduino uno home automation projects and they work great and good range too.

Here is a link to a discussion about the board: http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=110876.0 What type of motor are you trying to control? A stepper motor? a servo motor? What type of micro controller are you using an arduino?

That is how I learned about tke key board, reading an article about all the stuff one needs to use on a Raspberry Pi device to make it function. And the author said he had one of these keyboards for that purpose. Have fun, I really enjoy using it!

It's everything you need to start building with arduino. It's just got some experiments and you follow them until you learn the code then the sky is the limit. I thought it was a really well made and thought out starter kit.

Well, since those are both open source programs, you would want to check with the programmers, not the hardware manufacturer... Do you expect every company/person to keep up to date on every little Open Source program and compatibility?

Only the board. There are other offers in Amazon that comes with a Kit of sensors if you wish to start different projects.

A friend of mine who is a PhD physicist said, "You should think of the Arduino as a development board: You figure out how to do something, where the wires go, etc. using the kit. Then if you want to make something permanent, you build a 'new' arduino from scratch using just a few components (the main AtMega328p chip, some resistors, capacitors, oscillator, and voltage regulators)." which you have figured out using the kit, and the knowledge you learned from going through the exercises from the kit.
