I have decided to use the Megasquirt
system to control the turbo compound engine on the dyno
motor. Tracy's computer is too hard to tune
for the dyno loads. Also the price is right
on the Megasquirt. I know how to program the
6800 processors in assembly language so I can
make changes in the code for aircraft use or turbo
compound use.
Anybody using Megasquirt on here with their
rotary engine?
--------------------------------------------
This is a gif of the overall Megasquirt system.
There is a pile of software running on notebook
computers for setting up the tables and monitoring
the EFI system in real time. It will even do it
through Blue Tooth wireless.
The relay box makes it
much easier to wire as you don't have to solder
a whole bunch of small wires to the back of a 36 pin
DB connector.
The down side is it requires a throttle position
sensor which I can adapt to my custom made
throttle body.
