Arduino for Lego Trains #13: Bluetooth and Digispark

Learn how to embed an arduino directly into your Power Functions train, power it from the Lego battery back, and control it via your phone or tablet!

These videos are brilliant - so pleased when I saw a new one in my feed. Please keep them coming!

I totally love this series! It gives me nice ideas and keeps pushing me to work on my own train automation project. I use the more expensive SBrick btw as Bluetooth receiver, loosing the RC receiver completely. I'm writing my ow Train Control Center software for Windows. That said, I should get back to it. Keep up this great series!

[@hntrains2]

Hey there!
Can you let us see what you did back then?

[@sowiasz]

Awesome! Keep making those videos, I find them very inspiring.

[@topgundk]

Love this serie, looking forward to the next one. So you have an idea on how many we can expect videos this time around ?

[@ArduinoLegoTrains]

I have designs and parts for at least two more videos. I just need the free time to build and record them!

Amazing job
Lego should sell old classic 9 v engines, and bluetooth/wifi controllers.

[@goldfing5898]

As if you had predicted that Lego trains would use Bluetooth controlling a few years later (PoweredUp system).

I like these videos. keep them coming

[@Alpha_0ne276]

WOW! It's incredible! :-D

please upload a new video

I went to your channel and played the whole playlist straight through. But I noticed that this episode, # 13 is missing. The play list jumps from episode 12 to 14. Is this a fix you need to do or is it just me?

[@deonrevis5872]

Is it possible to use this feature to put the trains on a timer to automatically start and stop? Also is there a way to connect multiple bluetooth digi sparks at once

[@lilvanhooters]

what infrared led are you exactly using?

[@lilvanhooters]

can you add a video clip of you connecting the arduino and uploading it with the digispark and hc 05 module.

[@lilvanhooters]

or the same video but closer. it is very hard to see what you are plugging the wires into.

[@Hisham_Marzouk]

good job.

[@ps3lego95]

Are this work for 9v train?

[@lilvanhooters]

the folder's contents do not work with ardunio. How did you get the code. It did not work for me

[@lilvanhooters]

very helpfu video!

[@ArduinoLegoTrains]

Where are you seeing this message?

[@jurpik35]

I also want my trains to be automated

[@tokamohamed5163]
