Arduino Mega and Rainbowuino v2.0

I was having trouble programming my new rainbowduino 2.0 with my arduino MEGA 2560.
I originally just got the error:

avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00 avrdude: stk500_disable(): protocol error, expect=0x14, resp=0x51after checking this thread and taking some tips from eikcam1 I finally got it working.

I used a wire in between ground and reset to make it stop resetting. Manually reset Rainbowduino before programming.
I had my RX to RX and TX to TX.

I don’t think I would have figured it out without this thread though.
