    Feature Request: slow descend

    "In Pit" Remote Sensor - Possible?

    Hm has the ability for wireless probes. Although, the soldering pads for the wireless add-on board is no longer on the HM Circuit board, it still could be added on. Bryan would have more information about it, though.

    Markus why are you posting on this topic. The OP has Maverick probes, which need to be pulled out from the jack a little bit before they work correctly. I'm not sure what you are talking about in relation to the OP.

    servo/fan problems in RD3

    If you would like something more robust, then you should think about using one of my adapter boards. It had a cat5 jack soldered unto a pcb, along with a Thermocouple and 2 meat probe ja ks. No more wired cat5 Jack's to worry about failing

    HM not detecting temperature probes

    4.2 vs 4.3?

    If you plan to use the pi zero then go with the 4.3. The only difference between the two versions are how they utilize the different version of the Rpi's. The older 4.2 is more for older RPi version and the 4.3 is for the newer versions. They both work exactly the same.
