Can't wait to see your results. I would be keen for one of these units! CheersDarren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they much different in size? Whereabouts are you getting all your mini boards from in Aust or are you getting from overseas???Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austcro Member 47 Member For: 17y 6m 1d Gender: Male Location: Canberra Posted 24/09/08 03:37 AM Share Posted 24/09/08 03:37 AM This is good. Finally.Ok, I got a little over excited in TurboCorty's thread; however, I will donate my C++ and C# skills to this project. As for CAD, is AutoCAD a prereq for this because I have access to better CAD software than that (think parametric ). SolidWorks and Pro-E to name a couple. Heck, I'm no artist but hopefully as we go the ideas will flow. Although, I think we should get the electronics going before committing to this stage.As for my electronics skills, I know enough to be dangerous.What you say?

MrBean Member 400 Member For: 18y 7m 28d Location: Melbourne Posted 29/09/08 05:48 AM Author Share Posted 29/09/08 05:48 AM Hey Guys,Anyone knows what happened to member Tree Monkey? I am awaiting a donor ICC he would have sent a week back, and I cannot proceed until I have received it......Otherwise we need to find another "spare" ICC somewhere - the dual-zone one, not manual unit.....@ Austcro: I have a developement microcontroller ready, so we can probably start anytime soon. I will put the broadcast messages up tonight or tomorrow.Br,Beanie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may have alot of work on his hands. I've just read as much as I could understand across the last few pages - wow! Very interested to see how you go with this. If there is anything I can do from a Ford point of view, just let me know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
