Been messing about with the picade xhat and its hack header and experimenting with the pin outs to power and run a small number of neo pixels, looking at the pinout diagram for the xhat i figured i could use GPIO Pin 14 and change the python code that runs the neo pixel data from the default pin 18 and let it know its using GPIO pin 14.
Ive been following the neopixel guide and the site says that you must plug data into GPIO10, GPIO12, GPIO18 or GPIO21 for neopixels to work? these are all being used by the picade xhat at the moment.
Has anyone used the hack header for neo pixels and got it to work cant seem to find any examples or guides for this online or am i best just getting a pico board to power my Neo pixels and and ignoring the hack header.
