It is specifically designed to simplify experimenting and learning to code on low-cost microcontroller boards. CircuitPython is easiest to use within the Mu Editor. If you haven't previously used Mu, [this guide will get you started](https://learn.adafruit.com/welcome-to-circuitpython/installing-mu-editor). If you've never used Circuit Playground Express with CRICKIT before, make sure you've updated it with the latest special 'seesaw' version of the CPX firmware. [This guide will show you how](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-crickit-creative-robotic-interactive-construction-kit/circuitpython-code). ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/837/medium800/makecode_circuitpython_circuit_playground_adafruit_blinka_computer.png?1550870943) # Uploading Make sure you've connected the Circuit Playground Express to your computer (mac/PC/Linux) via a known good USB A to micro-B cable. Your board should show up as a flash disk drive named  **CIRCUITPY**  (If you see a disk name  **CPLAYBOOT** , try pressing the reset button again. If the only drive name you get is named  **CPLAYBOOT** , CircuitPython may not be loaded on the board. You can load CircuitPython as [per this guide](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-circuit-playground-express/circuitpython-quickstart)). Once your board is connected, copy  **code.py**  from the window below and paste it into Mu. Press the  **Save**  button and your code should automatically be saved to the  **CIRCUITPY**  disk drive (which appears when the Circuit Playground Express is plugged into your computer) as  **code.py**.  https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Learning_System_Guides/blob/main/Crickits/Crickit_CPX_Marionette/code.py ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/838/medium800/makecode_circuitpython_Screen_Shot_2018-09-06_at_9.47.58_AM_copy.png?1550872890) Info: Make sure the file saved to CIRCUITPY is named **code.py**, this will allow it to run automatically when your CPX is powered on. ## Troubleshooting **Problem** : My Circuit Playground Express isn't recognized by Mu! **Solution** : Make sure your board is set up with CircuitPython, which has the Circuit Playground Express show up as a flash drive named  **CIRCUITPY**  when you connect the CPX to your computer. If it is showing up as  **CPLAYBOOT**  on your computer, you can [follow the steps in this guide](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-circuit-playground-express/circuitpython-quickstart) to ensure CircuitPython is loaded and you see the  **CIRCUITPY**  drive. ##   **Problem** : My buttons don't work! **Solution** : Make sure you've updated the [CircuitPython firmware for CRICKIT ](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-crickit-creative-robotic-interactive-construction-kit/circuitpython-code)from the CRICKIT guide.   **Problem** : Nothing is moving! **Solution** : Check that your Circuit Playground Express is connected to a 5V power supply and the small slide switch on ** ** CRICKIT is set to "ON". Be sure the lightest servo wire faces away from the CRICKIT board, the darkest (black.brown) is closest to the center of CRICKIT. # Crickit Dancing Marionette Kit ## Dry Run Before going any further, it's best practice to get your buttons and motors connected and make sure they work as expected. ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/857/medium800/makecode_marionette4_bb.png?1550937055) ## Quick-Connect Connect the [quick-connect wire pairs](https://www.adafruit.com/product/1152) to the button terminals, and plug the male/male jumper wires into the JST connector at the other end. ![makecode_IMG_1184.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/379/medium640/makecode_IMG_1184.jpg?1550516211) ![makecode_IMG_1186.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/380/medium640/makecode_IMG_1186.jpg?1550516218) ## Connect Buttons Use [male/male jumper wires](https://www.adafruit.com/product/1955) to connect buttons to the Signal ports 1, 2, 3, and 4.  ![makecode_IMG_2180.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/859/medium640/makecode_IMG_2180.jpg?1550941462) ## Extend the Servo Arm In the package with the servo are several plastic _horns_ that can screw onto the servo. Select the one with two arms in a straight line. Extend the reach of the servo arm by taping a bamboo skewer to it. Plug each servo motor into the four servo ports on Crickit. ![makecode_IMG_1188.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/480/medium640/makecode_IMG_1188.jpg?1550613165) ## Optional 90° bend For the arms that will connect to the legs, it may help to add a 90 degree bend, thereby extending the reach outward and forward at the same time. Use hot glue to brace bends in wood skewers, then use tape and hot glue to affix the wooden armature to the servo motor hub.  ![makecode_IMG_1973.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/591/medium640/makecode_IMG_1973.jpg?1550695372) ![makecode_IMG_1974.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/592/medium640/makecode_IMG_1974.jpg?1550695602) ## Connect 5V Power Now you should be able to plug in your Crickit and check that pressing each button results in movement from its corresponding servo motor. ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/858/medium800/makecode_IMG_1807.jpg?1550941390) # Crickit Dancing Marionette Kit ## The Build ## Cardboard Marionette This construction technique uses scrap pieces of cardboard, folded into open segments and linked together with paper clips.  You will need: - Scrap cardboard - Scissors - Hot glue gun - Paper clips Danger: ## Cardboard Limbs   Cut a rectangle of cardboard approximately 2"x3" and fold into thirds. The leg segments you may want to size slightly larger. Glue small squares of cardboard to the ends of the folded rectangle. Make **8 of these segments** (2 for each arm and 2 for each leg). ![makecode_IMG_1926.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/549/medium640/makecode_IMG_1926.jpg?1550686350) ![makecode_IMG_1928.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/550/medium640/makecode_IMG_1928.jpg?1550686396) ![makecode_IMG_1931.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/551/medium640/makecode_IMG_1931.jpg?1550686925) ![makecode_IMG_1933.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/552/medium640/makecode_IMG_1933.jpg?1550686977) ## Link Segments   Use something sharp to poke a hole in the end of each segment. Insert a paperclip into this hole in the cardboard. ![makecode_IMG_1935.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/553/medium640/makecode_IMG_1935.jpg?1550687097) ![makecode_IMG_1936.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/554/medium640/makecode_IMG_1936.jpg?1550687192) ![makecode_IMG_1940.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/555/medium640/makecode_IMG_1940.jpg?1550688666) ![makecode_IMG_1942.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/556/medium640/makecode_IMG_1942.jpg?1550688954) Push paper clips most of the way in and use dabs of hot glue to hold paper clips in place.  Allow a few minutes to cool before moving the linked segments around. ![makecode_IMG_1943.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/557/medium640/makecode_IMG_1943.jpg?1550689195) ![makecode_IMG_1944.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/558/medium640/makecode_IMG_1944.jpg?1550689270) ![makecode_IMG_1945.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/559/medium640/makecode_IMG_1945.jpg?1550689329) ## Torso   Cut a larger rectangle of cardboard and fold two flaps along slightly angled lines.  Glue cardboard strips along the top and bottom to hold the folded flaps in place.  Connect the arm linkages to the torso using the same paperclip technique as before. ![makecode_IMG_1946.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/560/medium640/makecode_IMG_1946.jpg?1550689669) ![makecode_IMG_1949.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/562/medium640/makecode_IMG_1949.jpg?1550689822) ![makecode_IMG_1951.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/563/medium640/makecode_IMG_1951.jpg?1550689918) ![makecode_IMG_1950.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/564/medium640/makecode_IMG_1950.jpg?1550689982) ## Legs   As with the arms, build two leg linkages, connecting each with paper clips and gluing the paper clips in place with hot glue. ![makecode_IMG_1953.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/565/medium640/makecode_IMG_1953.jpg?1550690040) ![makecode_IMG_1954.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/566/medium640/makecode_IMG_1954.jpg?1550690189) ![makecode_IMG_1955.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/567/medium640/makecode_IMG_1955.jpg?1550690189) ![makecode_IMG_1956.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/568/medium640/makecode_IMG_1956.jpg?1550690810) ## Hands and Feet   Connect the legs to the torso using paper clips. Glue some cardboard hands and feet onto the model. ![makecode_IMG_1958.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/570/medium640/makecode_IMG_1958.jpg?1550691036) ![makecode_IMG_1959.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/571/medium640/makecode_IMG_1959.jpg?1550691554) ![makecode_IMG_1962.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/572/medium640/makecode_IMG_1962.jpg?1550691687) ## The Head   Make a head out of a folded strip of cardboard. Insert a paper clip into the bottom of the head and top of the torso to link them together. A small hole poked in the top of the head will allow for a string to be threaded through which will be used to support the marionette. ![makecode_IMG_1964.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/573/medium640/makecode_IMG_1964.jpg?1550691784) ![makecode_IMG_1965.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/574/medium640/makecode_IMG_1965.jpg?1550691820) ![makecode_IMG_1969.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/575/medium640/makecode_IMG_1969.jpg?1550691836) ![makecode_IMG_1970.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/576/medium640/makecode_IMG_1970.jpg?1550691880) ## Add Strings   Use thin wire or string to connect limbs to servo extensions ![makecode_IMG_2062.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/805/medium640/makecode_IMG_2062.jpg?1550773230) ![makecode_IMG_2061.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/806/medium640/makecode_IMG_2061.jpg?1550773766) ![makecode_IMG_2063.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/807/medium640/makecode_IMG_2063.jpg?1550773778) Your marionette should now be ready to dance! ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/577/medium800/makecode_IMG_1976_copy.jpg?1550692216) # Crickit Dancing Marionette Kit ## Connect the Electronics ## Servo Platform   Make a small platform by introducing two 90° bends into each end of a strip of cardboard. Glue this to the top of your box. This will allow you to stack two pairs of servos above the marionette. ![makecode_IMG_1736.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/578/medium640/makecode_IMG_1736.jpg?1550693464) ![makecode_IMG_1737.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/579/medium640/makecode_IMG_1737.jpg?1550693476) ## Stacked Servos   Use dabs of hot glue to mount the servos on top of box. IMPORTANT: Position the motors so that the arms are able to move freely without contacting each other. ![makecode_IMG_1817.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/580/medium640/makecode_IMG_1817.jpg?1550693622) ![makecode_IMG_1818.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/581/medium640/makecode_IMG_1818.jpg?1550693643) ![makecode_IMG_1820.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/582/medium640/makecode_IMG_1820.jpg?1550693655) ![makecode_IMG_1821.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/864/medium640/makecode_IMG_1821.jpg?1550943530) ## Attach CRICKIT   Use some double sided tape (or hot glue if you prefer) to attach CRICKIT to the top edge of the box. ![makecode_IMG_1812.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/863/medium640/makecode_IMG_1812.jpg?1550943503) ## Buttons   Use a pencil to sketch the size and location of the buttons. Cut holes for buttons using a hobby knife - it's better to make the holes on the small side at first and only widen them if you need to. ![makecode_IMG_1822.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/586/medium640/makecode_IMG_1822.jpg?1550694706) ![makecode_IMG_1823.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/587/medium640/makecode_IMG_1823.jpg?1550694754) ![makecode_IMG_1826.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/588/medium640/makecode_IMG_1826.jpg?1550694920) ![makecode_IMG_1828.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/589/medium640/makecode_IMG_1828.jpg?1550694983) Once the buttons are in place, reconnect the quick-connect cables to each button. ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/590/medium800/makecode_IMG_1833.jpg?1550695015) # Crickit Dancing Marionette Kit ## Dance! Your marionette is now ready to learn some dance moves!  ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/862/medium800thumb/makecode_Diptic.2019-02-23_12_35_45.jpg?1550943364) ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/816/medium800thumb/makecode_IMG_2130.2019-02-22_00_21_40.jpg?1550847292) # Crickit Dancing Marionette Kit ## Coding with MakeCode If you'e like to use MakeCode for this project rather than CircuitPython, follow the instructions on this page. Note that the circuit used here is slightly modified to work with MakeCode. Primary: ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/073/515/medium800/projects_Screen_Shot_2019-03-20_at_4.47.45_PM_copy.png?1553115302) ## Getting Familiar **Microsoft MakeCode for Adafruit is ** a web-based code editor that provides a block editor, similar to Scratch or Code.org, and also a JavaScript editor for more advanced users. If you'd like to learn more about MakeCode, [this guide is a good place to start](https://learn.adafruit.com/makecode/downloading-and-flashing?embeds=allow). ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/073/494/medium800/projects_makecode.jpg?1553106313) ## How to Upload Code To upload code, connect you Circuit Playground Express to your computer using a micro USB cable and press the small reset button in the center of the board. All the LEDs will flash  **red briefly, then turn green. ** Your computer should now show removable drive called  **CPLAYBOOT. ** Click the  **Download**  button to download the ** .uf2 file**  to your computer, and  **drag 'n drop that .UF2 file onto the CPLAYBOOT**  drive in your computer's file explorer or finder. The drive will automatically eject itself (your computer may give you a "failed to eject drive correctly" error, you can ignore this). The code is now on your Circuit Playground Express and ready to run! ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/385/medium800thumb/makecode_circuit_playground_projects_CPX_bootloader_mode.jpg?1550516423) ## MakeCode Click the button below to enter the portal to interact with the code for this project https://makecode.adafruit.com/02205-83047-18026-00656 ## The Logic The code for this project employs a tricky bit of logic to get the buttons to respond as they do.  The `not_` function returns _true if the input is false, and false when the input is true_. In this way, the servo motors are instructed to maintain the specified angle until a signal from the button is detected. ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/599/medium800/makecode_Screen_Shot_2019-02-20_at_5.01.57_PM.png?1550700191) A single `forever` loop is used to link each of the 4 input buttons to the 4 servo motors that will animate the limbs of the marionette.  Depending on your setup, you may want to tweak the angles that each servo moves by changing the values in the `crickit set servo # angle to 40`. Keep in mind that the servos are placed in a mirror arrangement, so increasing the angle range for one will require decreasing that range for its mirror opposite. Some trial & error to sort this out is normal. ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/601/medium800/makecode_Screen_Shot_2019-02-20_at_5.04.04_PM.png?1550700278) Once the code is uploaded to CPX you're ready to start putting the circuit together.  ## Signals & Servos We will be utilizing 4 out of the 8 possible Signal I/O ports on CRICKIT to connect the buttons, and using up all 4 servo ports to plug in each servo.  For a deeper dive into using input and output signals with CRICKIT, reference [this guide](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-crickit-creative-robotic-interactive-construction-kit/makecode-signals). ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/071/812/medium800/makecode_IMG_2006.jpg?1550775163) ## Circuit Diagram To use MakeCode for this project, we need to add some 1K pull up resistors to our circuit. These will allow the state of the buttons to be detected by the program. ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/073/495/medium800/projects_marionette2_bb.png?1553106982) If you'd prefer not to use a breadboard, resistors can be stuck directly into the signals port on the Crickit. The resistors should connect the **Signals** line with the **3.3V** line. ![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/073/496/medium800/projects_IMG_1192.jpg?1553107000) ## Featured Products ### Adafruit CRICKIT for Circuit Playground Express [Adafruit CRICKIT for Circuit Playground Express](https://www.adafruit.com/product/3093) Sometimes we wonder if robotics engineers ever watch movies.
