It is coming along. I am looking for volunteers to try it out.
The EFI part and ignition are totally controlled by hardware.
There is no computer faster than hardware.
The CPU's main job is to display and record engine parameters and other
stuff on a small VGA color display on the instrument panel.
The engine will still run if the CPU stops. In fact one can have dozens
pf programs stored in the memory and one can actually change programs in
the air. All the programs are open source and can be attached to email.
The memory is 32 Gig so many hours of flight can be recorded.
It is all contained in a 6 by 6 by 2 inch extruded aluminum box.
The ignition must be CD or Lamar instruments. It will work with several
CD system the very popular MSD is one of the them.
The Crank Angle Sensor is stock Mazda. You can set the advance by
adjusting the angular position of the CAS. Simple.
It is not suitable for use in cars as aircraft engines run for long
periods of time at the same power level.

Is there both a 2 rotor and a 3 rotor version?
And using the pulley timing sensors (fd type) or the older 'distributor'
type like on pre 93 and 20B's?

Not enough 3 rotors to make it pay.
With 650 HP out of a two rotor who needs three ?
