Hi. Did you make it?
I built the toy, I created dns token but now I don't know what to do and how. Can you help me if you know?

Hi @urpils4711! Yes, I did change the pinout for the GPS. I'm not sure which revision schematic you're referring to, which is honestly my fault for lack of clear documentation.

The "official" project uses the RX and TX pins on the ESP8266 to communicate w/ GPS since this takes advantage of the full hardware serial. Otherwise, a bit-banged SoftwareSerial connection has to happen if we use D3 and D4. You can read more about this issue documented here.

I will be posting updated documentation & schematics at dnsdriveby.com later this week.

@Gametake , I'm working on implementing thorough documentation at dnsdriveby.com these next couple of days, so it'll be easier to get up and running with the project.
