Default Opensource CDI ignition

As some of you aleready know, i have a CDI project on my [link=http://home.online.no/~jon-mj/cdi_ignition.htm]homepage[/link].
Tonight i have made a big update to the pages, so please have a look at it.

Some info of my CDI:
-Runs from a normal 4.8V RX battery
-Programmable advance curve
-Built from easy to find parts
-Integrated strobe light, using a hi intensity LED
-Integrated test function - no need for a signal generator
-The advance control can be separated from the PCB and be used to upgrade other CDI's without advance control
-Low part count
-Can use a homemade coil

The CDI is tested and works, but there is still an issue with noise from the high voltage board reaching the advance board.
This should not be too hard to fix.

This project is totally open source, all the info you need can be downloaded from my pages.
I get a lot of email about this project, so it may be better to use this forum to share problems and ideas.

My homepage is at: [link=http://home.online.no/~jon-mj/cdi_ignition.htm]http://home.online.no/~jon-mj/cdi_ignition.htm[/link]
