This device could be the key to make tuning Tracy's EFI much easier.
In theory it is possible to use this to send data to an android tablet
like the ASUS Transformer or Acer Iconia or Toshiba Thrive.
There are half a dozen other android tablets on the market.

Ideally this data would provide a real time 3D display of the mixture map the
same as being done by the Megasquirt. A secondary function is recording engine parameters for the entire flight for accident investigation reasons.
AKA a very low cost black box.


These tablets will fit in the RV4 under the panel ahead of the stick
and other airplanes with over 250,000 applications so far.... some of them aviation moving maps. Of course there is a built in GPS receiver
and attitude gyro in all android tablets.

One would need to connect the injectors to an opto isolator
and a manifold pressure sensor as well as get RPM info in.
