For general experimentation on a budget, I like the RBBB from Modern Device. Of course if you need shield compatibility you'll have to look elsewhere. The shield-compatible clones from seeedstudio would probably be my choice then.

You can definitely experiment with a Typhon but I find that sometimes it is awkward to experiment with a board that has "extra" stuff on it.

I built the prototype for that expansion module but decided I didn't like a bunch of stuff on it. It probably works but I kinda gave up on it since I've been putting effort in to my big tank now that it's online again. If anyone is interested in taking over that effort I can send out the stuff I have to date and provide some comments on how I would change it.
