Step 3: The basics of the ArcDroid™ User Interface (UI)

[@TripodsGarage]

Love the dump of all these videos 😀! Hopefully this means it is ready to ship to the backers?

[@TripodsGarage]

@@ArcDroidCNC - Just read your email, I appreciate the updates. Other crowdsourcing should learn from you! I opted to wait to see if you were able to crack the code for high frequency shielding. Looks like I will be waiting longer 😞

Need a part 2, showing more settings that are not explained in the new manual.

[@davidcat1455]

Also needs to slow down with the explanation. Not all of us are computer nerds. When he says hit “save” which button is that? None of them are marked “save”. Is it the button with the picture of the envelope or the button of the 3/4 circle with the arrow point ? If you hit the wrong button you get to spend 45 minutes getting back to the same point you just left. That’s assuming you can figure out how to do it in the first place.🤷 I’m sure it’s a good tool and the build quality seems fine but don’t kid yourself. Unless you’re very comfortable with technology it’s not simple to drive. Or at least not for me,but I’m 67 years old and I’ve never used a computer in my life.

What about the Load button? I would assume I could load my own gcode files? Can imagine doing all my design on the little touchscreen

[@TeeGeeRoo]

I'm having trouble getting the unit to run gcode - simply becomes unresponsive after I "Load" a file...

[@boogerzekesweldingemporium4833]

Can you do the practice run with the stylus installed or is that not recommended because the stylus might get damaged? I’m assuming that replacement styluses will be available for purchase in the future.

Will it be possible to edit or "clean up" a traced file. I E if the edge of your cutout is rough, your hand is shaking, or to straighten a line ?

[@BrilliantDesignOnline]

Is there, or will there be USB functionality with a PC based desktop application, or at least the ability to send a file via USB? Regardless, a great machine for the price, since I paid over $10k for my PlasmaCAM.

Is fusion 360 available for download on ArcDroids website?

[@ArcDroidCNC]

No, you need to D/L Fusion from AutoDesk look for the "Personal Use" version. We have a post processor available for Fusion on our web site.

[@TeeGeeRoo]

Could really use a manual instead of these videos...

[@lumencompleo]

These videos area produced and shot from the wrong end of the stick. They should not be produced from the creator/seller looking out end, but the consumer looking in. There are too many assumptions of the program's capability but no explanation of the "how to" for someone willing to engage. Love the product but you guys should employ an educator to produce the right type of informative/educational tool that you really need. Not a complaint, but a wish.

[@BUZDRIFT]

Overpriced for the feature set and its capabilities!

[@davidcat1455]

I disagree. It’s well made and the price is quite reasonable. It’s also very convenient and doesn’t take up a huge amount of room like a full CNC plasma table. How many plasma tables do you know that have a trace function?

[@glenngreen6553]

This little unit is Awesome! The price is very attractive for what you get. @@davidcat1455

Only if it came with a pen
