Tracy,
Great to hear as the only thing I did not
like about your EC3 was the software is now 40 years out of date.
That is telling you how far you were in being ahead of the pack at
that time. You were years ahead of your time!! Would like to see
a Lambda gauge in there somewhere. AS I say I need a simple RPM,
engine monitors -- heat and pressures-- alarms-- Lambda
reading-- Timing is possibly academic? Really not much else
as I only get confused. Possibly a readout of about 4 x 3 inches
for us geriatrics!

I'll post up dates an progress on the Arduino software port. If
anyone has ideas to add/change, things they like/don’t like about
the EC2/3 or things that could be better, let me know. To the guy
designing a thing the operation might be obvious but be terribly
confusing to anyone else.

Hi Tracy;
I'd be very interested in the software code for
an Arduino/EC3 when it is ready. My Dad has given my
14 year old son his old jeep as a project to work on
for the next few years until he can drive legally. I
had already been considering converting it to EFI as a
good learning experience for him and now hearing that
the EC3 code will be available has convinced me that
we should do this. I'd already planned to buy him his
own Arduino starter kit just because I think there is
a lot of educational value there, but with a goal of
building his own EFI for his own Jeep, there will be a
lot of motivation to learn. And it will be a great
platform to test the design before possibly trying it
in any future aircraft builds.
