Hi Marcos,

I use to get the Walter's models too

the .brd file that I can download from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/hackrf/files/?source=navbar

has only some sot23.wrl file associated to pcb footprints...
so what I'm asking you is, if possible, to receive the hackrf-one.brd or hackrf-one.kicad_pcb file with the 3d models associated to footprints... 

thank you
Maurice

Hi Maurice,
What do you mean by 3d models name?

I use Walter's models from smisioto.org

Hi Marco,

it would be possible to get the HackRF kicad pcb file updated with the 3d
models names?

Thank you
Maurice

Hi,
see attached some screenshots of 3D Viewer showing the HackRF board, it
could replace this one in kicad-pcb.org

http://www.kicad-pcb.org/display/KICAD/KiCad+EDA+Software+Suite?preview=/589828/1376287/kicad_3dviewer.png

Who should I ask to upload it?

The other screenshots could be updated too, they look ancient.

Regards


Marcos

I have collected some of the new nice additions, likely not all.

I would also be nice if we had an announcement about the new stable
release with a list of new features such as 64 layers, openGL rendering,
P&S routing, etc.

Yes, it would be nice to have the website updated.
Kicad could have a lot of media coverage given the vast improvements
over the last release and we will need (besides bugfixing) some
appealing screenshots and videos.

If I can I'll prepare screenshots from hackrf, ubertooth, etc for you
guys to review.

Best regards
