Depending on soldering skills, there is also the sensebender platform, where minimal soldering is required

Sensor node: https://www.mysensors.org/hardware/micro
In general, yes, the MySensors framework (library?) should support FOTA a couple different ways (read more at link). Were you aware of this, or is there some problem with your particular hardware?
@NielBierman said in FOTA possibilities for remote sensor network:
Raspberry pi
I don't know yet whether you even need to change your gateway from microcontroller (uC) to Single Board Computer (SBC) or not. However if you do (or are looking for a controller, or whatever), by all means, please do yourself (and all of us) a favor and do a little more research as there are lots of better options out there for SBC nowadays, than RPi!
For me, uC have been fine for gateway although I do use some SBC for controllers, MQTT broker, and various other GNU/Linux based servers/services and they are wonderful for that. But perhaps your needs are different from mine.
Thanks for all the input and ideas - I'll go with cr2032 and see how it goes. Batteries, holders and ceramic caps are all on their way, so time will tell on this one.
Thanks all!
Hello,
I just started off trying to make a few sensors,
Just like you i only had uno's and pro mini and no nano.
Read this article and thought everything would be fine, but.
So i loaded up the sketch onto an uno and plugged it into my vera loaded the files but Vera Serial port configuration dosent detect anything.
Any idea how to get that working?
