SD card, does it poke out?

Thu May 01, 2014 6:29 pm

Out of curiosity, does anyone know if the SD card will poke out when it's inside the gamebuino or will it sit flush?

Actually it's a spring-loaded socket so the card extends about 2 mm out, which it needs to do so that you can remove it by pressing down.

That's not bad actually, I guess a case would allow you to streamline it more if you so wish.
