FAQ
FOR EXTRA DETAILS
PROJECT
WHY DID YOU DEVELOP SUCH A SMALL MODULE?
We wanted to have a small module that would have Wi-Fi functionality and plenty of GPIOs, thus allowing us to integrate it with various sensors, displays and other devices. This integration enables the creation of an all-in-one module that will have “brains” to manipulate all of those devices.
WHAT FIRMWARE IS PRELOADED INTO CYBERCORE X1?
For the initial release, CYBERCORE X1 comes with an ordinary Arduino OTA service that is accessible via Arduino IDE. For the future, we are developing our little firmware CYBEROS with MicroPython that will have a nifty control panel to manage module settings. Additionally, the firmware will have access to 3 environments: control tools, drag ‘n drop programming and IDE.
WILL YOU PROVIDE SCHEMATICS AND FOOTPRINTS OF CYBERCORE X1?
Yes, we will publish all the files and documentation after the crowdfunding campaign.
I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THE CYBEROS?
You can check out this short intro video, where we elaborate on the details of the CYBEROS control panel and have a quick look at its features.

WHEN WILL YOU RELEASE CYBERCORE X1 WITH CYBEROS?
We already have a working CYBERCORE X1 prototype. Moreover, we also have a production-ready variant ready for manufacturing. In short, we will release it when it’s ready. As for the CYBEROS, we will release it after CYBERCORE X1. You will be able to download it and flash it to your CYBERCORE X1.
WHEN WILL CYBERCORE X1 BE AVAILABLE AT INDIEGOGO?
This year. Subscribe to our mailing list or follow us on social media to get notified about the campaign start.
MANUFACTURING
WHERE IS CYBERCORE X1 MANUFACTURED?
It is manufactured in Klaipeda, Lithuania.
WHO DEVELOPED CYBERCORE X1?
Hey, it was me - Edgaras Janušauskas. I am the creator of CYBERCORE X1 and CEO at MB Inovatorius.
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN DEVELOPING CYBERCORE X1?
Around half a year, however the entire project has been under development for 6 years.
WHAT IS THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS?
For now, everything is hand soldered. If we manage to successfully raise funds in the Indiegogo campaign, then we will order stencil, stencil printer and reflow oven. These tools will allow us to quickly manufacture CYBERCORE X1 and increase the quality of the product. We made a short video where you can see how CYBERCORE X1 is soldered.

WILL YOU ADD AN RF SHIELD TO CYBERCORE X1?
We will add an RF shield to the final version.
ORDERING
HOW CAN I ORDER CYBERCORE X1?
Once the Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign will start, then you can order it there.
WHAT WILL HAPPEN AFTER THE CROWDFUNDING CAMPAIGN ENDS?
You will be able to pre-order CYBECORE X1 on our page.
WHEN WILL YOU MANUFACTURE AND SHIP PRE-ORDERS?
When we are done with orders placed on Indiegogo, then we will proceed with the manufacturing and shipping of pre-orders.
WHAT IS THE BREAKOUT BOARD OPTION FOR CYBERCORE X1?
You will receive a little board that will be solder to CYBERCORE X1. The board is compatible with 2.54 mm pitch breadboards and allows you to easily connect various sensors.
WHAT IS THE DEVELOPMENT BOARD OPTION FOR CYBERCORE X1?
You will receive a socket that consist of 23 pogo pins (or spring-loaded pins) that are used to connect to the module without any soldering. The board is compatible with 2.54 mm pitch breadboards.
SHIPPING
HOW IS THE CYBERCORE X1 SHIPPED?
It is packed in an anti-static bag and shipped in a padded envelope (bubble wrap) envelope while option with development board is shipped in a box.
WHAT SHIPPING OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE?
For now, we ship via standard Lithuanian post services with tracking number and insurance.
WHAT IF I DO NOT RECEIVE MY PACKAGE?
We will issue a refund or send you another package.
