RE: CDI gr8flyer55
I've changed it to "Trigger_Pulse_Time" in the version I'm working on now. Not a whole lot of new features in the next version, so it should be ready pretty soon.
Today I timed my Honda GX35 clone (4-stroke) with the stock setup. It seems to run at a 25 degree advance. Now I'm kinda worried that 30 degrees won't be enough advance.
I also got a throttle servo hooked up and working well. Now I just have to build a test stand, figure out the motor mount, finish making my shaft and prop adapter, and attach the CDI. Then I should be able to get a lot more testing done faster.
I've also ordered a serial bluetooth adapter. Somehow I got the crazy idea that I'd like to play with the engine and ignition settings through my android phone or laptop without cables. That will take a lot of fiddling to get working, but will probably be pretty cool.
