       #nabu looks to be in good shape. The fan rubs a bit as expected, so I'll want to sort that out. And I totally forgot I need RS-422.. I'll probably make a TTL adapter like I saw on the YouTubes.I also vaguely feel like I saw a video that had some suggestions for checking the power supply, but I don't quite remember. Hopefully nothing blows up when I plug it in later.

       I don't think there's any value in documenting the #nabu unboxing as it's been done many times already. If I'm wrong about that, there's about 90 seconds to change my mind. 😃

       Good news: nothing's broken. Bad news: bending the fan blades took forever and I might not get to making a serial adaptor tonight.

       It's not an #electronics project if you don't have to bust out the oops gun.

       This is where I am so far (TL;DR - not working yet). https://youtube.com/live/ltna8gk78WU

       A disappointing end. I just can't get anything past those 00 and init messages. I know there's some data being exchanged, but I've tried half a dozen different serial adapters, Windows and Mac OS, and it's the same with all of them. I continuity checked everything on my adapter and it tests good, so I can't figure out what I've got wrong Worst case is I damaged the UART chip.
