Hey Poal,

I want to create new Wunderwaffen for WW3, so I'd like to learn some microcontroller-programming and electronics in general, and I'd like to ask you for any ideas/resources/anything else about how to start.

I'm able to use get a "real" computer to do my bidding, and I'm able to code in several programming-languages, including C/C++, but I know next to nothing about electronics, as in how to create a circuit-board that actually does something, and so on. My knowledge in that regard is basically, that I know the relationship between Volts and Amperes, and have used a soldering iron in the past for basic repairs.

Do you have any suggestions where to best start out, what resources to use, and so on?

as many have suggested arduino you can go on amazon and buy project kits and sensor kits fairly cheap. i bought one that came with 50 different sensors lasers ir receivers ect. you can also buy a components kit you will get a breadboard jumper wire diodes resisters encoders capacitors all that stuff. you can go on banggood or other chinese purveyor of knockoff goods to get a soldering iron cheap. i use a ksger i picked it up for around 50$.
