Most people treat starter kits like toys,
2
then they don't know how to start their first real project because they never learned how to build systems.
3
In this video, I'm going to show you the mindset shift
4
that you need to turn a $20 starter kit into a real engineering experience.
5
This is how the pros do it,
6
and if you start now, so can you.
7
Hello and welcome to Fluxbench.
8
My name's James and I'm a nerd and I hope you're a nerd too.
9
okay so here's the problem you get your kit you follow the tutorial you plug in your light
10
and wire it up exactly like they tell you to you run the code
11
that they give you and it blinks wonderful
12
and then you go on to the next lesson and another part
13
but what did you actually learn by doing that like
14
if i took away those instructions do you think you could honestly use
15
that part in something else you're not learning electronics you're following recipes
16
and that's copying and it's fine to get started but you're not going to get far past blinking lights doing that.
17
What matters is connecting all these ideas together.
18
Why does the LED actually work?
19
What else could the LED respond to?
20
What else could you swap in instead of using an LED?
21
Here's how I look at it.
22
Those lessons are giving you one tool at a time where you have things like buttons
23
and sensors and those are just inputs and then you have your microcontroller in the middle
24
and then you have LEDs and screens and stuff like that that are outputs.
25
And what you need to do is chain the inputs to the outputs somehow.
26
You need to build a system that links them all together.
27
And that's where the real engineering is.
28
If you begin thinking like this,
29
then that $20 starter kit of yours,
30
it's no longer a toy.
31
It's a freaking laboratory to do whatever the heck you want
32
with it it's your R&D laboratory you have all the tools
33
all the sensors the buttons whatever you need to make what you want it should be in there
34
so now we get to the fun cheesy part of it's
35
not what you know it's how you think about it it's the real difference between a beginner
36
and a builder is
37
that a beginner looks at a starter kit as a bunch of individual demos
38
that are separate and a builder looks at them as a bunch of individual tools
39
that they're going to go link together in a system
40
and they're just learning one at a time and
41
so you got to have
42
that mindset shift of it's not demos it's systems i want
43
to show you the engineering ladder of mine it's got five rungs on it
44
and in the beginning you start out with tutorials
45
and in the end you're able to build whatever the heck you want this is the blinky stage where you follow tutorials,
46
you plug in sensors, you just get results.
47
But it's not the destination.
48
Think of this as just learning individual words of a vocabulary.
49
The magic really begins once you start to integrate these separate things.
50
Once you start to combine a button with an LED or some sort of sensor with like a speaker,
51
all of a sudden you're taking these individual tools and combining them into a system.
52
It's like if you took these individual vocabulary words,
53
started putting them together and they're starting to make like a fluid sentence.
54
Now you're really starting to speak like a real engineer.
55
Music isn't just one note,
56
it's a arrangement of many.
57
And it's the same thing with electronics and when you start to combine and integrate them,
58
this is where that real electron jazz begins.
59
I love modules, they're a great way to get started in electronics.
60
You can just go and buy a kit of them for real cheap and they just work.
61
But the problem is once you need a lot of them.
62
This here is a infrared transmitter.
63
It's probably a dollar or two dollars a piece
64
but the problem is it's probably five or ten cents a piece for the actual parts.
65
And then this thing here is a photoelectric light measuring module,
66
but all these parts here are probably one penny a piece.
67
They're just resistors, to be honest.
68
And this bag of buttons,
69
if you buy a button module,
70
oh my goodness, well, you might need it,
71
but it's just like a penny or two per button.
72
So all these are great,
73
but those $5 modules are probably just like 75 cents in parts.
74
If you use enough of them,
75
it's kind of like trying to water a tree with bottled water.
76
You can definitely do it.
77
It's just a really expensive way to go about doing it.
78
Flip your board, read the chip,
79
look up the part, own your circuit.
80
So the real playground isn't in your 37-in-1 sensor kit or your modules.
81
It's in the catalog.
82
Check this out.
83
A whole box or bag full of different microcontrollers.
84
So you can take your ESP32
85
and I can basically swap out any size of memory I want
86
so I can get a $3 microcontroller or a $5 microcontroller depending on how much money I want to put into it.
87
I can add all sorts of sensors.
88
I can customize it however I want and that's what you get when you start working with a catalog compared to modules.
89
Start browsing distributors like Mauser,
90
DigiKey, L-C-S-C And you don't just search You really try to discover
91
You sometimes find the part that just does exactly what you need,
92
and other times you find a part so cool you end up changing your whole project around it.
93
The real superpower is debugging,
94
fixing, and just not panicking while you do it.
95
Because by now, you don't expect things to work on the first try,
96
and when something else breaks,
97
you're used to it, and you just start hunting it down because you're ready for it and you know where to look.
98
At this point, you're not copying anymore.
99
You're building.
100
You're solving.
101
And if you actually manage to get here, you're dangerous.
102
Most people don't get past level one.
103
But the thing is, if you're feeling the itch to do something real,
104
then this is your ladder.
105
Climb it.
106
I'm serious.
107
By the time you get to the top,
108
you will be dangerous because you're not going to need anyone else's help.
109
Whatever the thing is that you want to do,
110
you're going to know how to do it.
111
You got to learn, integrate,
112
replace, explore, and most of all, you got to persevere.
113
If you don't know where to begin,
114
then my previous video talks about how to actually get electronics,
115
what to buy, where, how much,
116
just get a starter kit.
117
Any of them will do.
118
And in the next video,
119
we're going to start doing something crazy.
120
I'm going to start a series where we're actually going take
121
some of these first few lessons of any of these starter kits
122
and we're gonna go all the way from idea all the way to income making a real product.
123
This is something that you guys can do as well so follow along it's gonna get crazy.
124
But for now whatever it is go out there make something awesome you got this.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
