I couldn’t agree with you more. We’ve had a terrible time dealing with the Adventurists. Seems like when everything is going well they’re all smiles and pats on the back but as soon as something goes wrong they’re nowhere to be seen.

We had recently signed up for the ASEAN run and, I won’t go into the details because it makes me pretty upset, but they failed to provide us with even a rickshaw! We spent about 4 days waiting for it to turn up at the start line, after most of the other teams had left.

When it finally arrived it was in no way working. Not at all. We ended up having to pay to transport a broken tuktuk all the way from thailand to sumatra where we were told they’d be able to fix it. In Sumatra we had to pay the mechanic ourselves to try to try to fix it. He couldn’t; It was completely beyond fixing. We we forced to just abandon the race after having never actually gotten started. We wern’t the only ones either. There were another 2 teams whose tuktuks never worked.

So, we’re back home now and collectively about $5,000 out of pocket for an adventure which we never had. We had a response from the Adventurists about a month ago saying they would ‘look into it’ and since then there’s been absolutely nothing despite numerous emails from myslef.

I expect that’s probably the end of that then.

Incredibly disappointed by the whole experience. Couldn’t possibly recommend anyone to use the Adventurists.

I want to test a distance measuring sensor: Sharp’s GP2Y0A21YK0F. Can I use the same program the one you used for the Sharp Infrared Arduino Sketch?

Thank you
