3 buttons for 3 different functions?

I’m new to littleBits and I want to make a halloween costume (planning early) using littleBits parts.

Parts I plan to use:

  • Button (x3)
  • DC Motor (x3)
  • USB Power
  • CloudBit

Each Button will trigger a unique DC motor to turn. Am I missing parts or using parts I do not need?

Unless you want it to work over the internet, or to log data to something on the net, you won’t need the cloud bit. Even if that is your ultimate plan, get it working locally (ie without the cloud) first, then add the cloud bit after it does what you want with the buttons.

You will probably also need some splits, or perhaps a branch or fork bit to wire it all together.
