I had some issues with a V2 microbit. The hex file for V2 in the github repo didn't work - but the file downloaded from this web page does. Since it has no version or data it's not obvious to see that they are different. Please update the repo

I tried the Super:Bit expansion board. It was great. However, i tried the SCL and SDA (pins on the top left of Super:Bit) to the LCD 16X2 I2C module. And i connected to 5V and GND of Super:Bit at the bottom left of Super:Bit. I could not get the LCD to display "Hello World". Is there anything that i missed here?
Thanks for your question.

Hello, is there a way to get 5v output to motor drive on this board? I have the programmable building block Red Motor(A02) which can run 3-5v and I want higher power output from motor.
Yes, you can get 5v output to motor drive on this board.

Is there a lastest version of the super:bit hex file for micropython. I’m getting 529error on my microbit after flashing the hex file.
Hello,
Thanks for your question.
The reason for this problem is that due to the upgrade of the Microbit V2 board, there are still some problems in IIC communication.
Now our Python library files are compatible with Microbit V2.
Please download new Python file on our website. Link: http://www.yahboom.net/study/Super:bit -
I need a schematic diagram. Is it available?
Hello friend,
Tell me your E-mail, i will send file to you. can't send here. -
Superbit is compatible with K210 Visual module?
Hello friend, K210 Visual module use serial communication, and the superbit expansion board supports serial communication. In theory, they can be connected, but we do not provide relevant tutorials.
