Pictures for newbies

I took pictures of my build because i couldn't find any on the net.
For those people who really don't know what they're getting into, here 9 of the pictures i took. You should be able to identify which part of the build instructions the pictures were taken at.








These are for the custom circuits. I haven't completed everything, but it's good to look at. Also, i cannot verify if these work yet. I'll update when i'm certain! FOLLOW AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Parastie,
Just curious why isn't C11 in place? If it needs to be removed for the BAC to work please let me know. Or maybe your just not 100% done yet? Let me know either way if you can please. Thanks,Shawn

c11 is part of the hall sensor/coil negative tach input circuit if I remember correctly. It isn't needed if you're using the VR sensor input

Muy is correct. I skipped step 50 and 65 as these 2 circuits are not needed.

Here are pictures of the one I'm working on. Everything seems to have tested okay, Going to wire it up if I can find the time next week.

Parasite what engine are you going to use that MS on?

I'll be running a Jspec T2 engine. I'm hoping to have everything running by March.

cool, that turned out pretty clean. One disadvantage of using the daughterboard is that there are wires going everywhere (to get from the top-side to the bottom-side of the board). I still like the flexibility and extra abilities the daughterboard gives me though.

The daughter board is nice and easy to build. I just mounted it in a separate plastic project enclosure box from radio slack next to the MS. I tried stuffing it inside the MS case but was a bit of a tight fit for my liking. One short and you have yourself a troubleshooting nightmare. I just went thru all that .
