MoTeC Motec M1 GPR Rotary released
Getting the initial map from Shane, I discovered an unexpected shortcoming with the M1 series. The important mapping capability dates back to the gold box units (e.g. M4, M84, M48, Mx00). There is no MAP/EMAP mapping! EMAP can only be monitored and logged. No leads on future incorporation.
That said, I continue to be impressed the more I learn the other capabilities. Latest one was the ability to map fuel pump pulse-width by fuel pressure. Super helpful to keep a huge pump's heat generation to a minimum. Just one of the so many cool discoveries. So in toto, I'm still very please with the choice. Just be aware of the change.

This is somewhat in-built to their business model with Dev units. Pushes their AD network to build and support keeping customers at arms length from Motec Proper but still creating functionality.
It's not some bespoke CAN gearbox control thing for a low volume people mover that only 3 people would use. Pretty disappointing to drop functionality they had ~20 years ago.

Sure 'nuf, I check with Shane and MAP/EMP is a Dev option with his "Pike's Peak" package. That said and after some caveat emptor reflection, I only have a smidgeon of buyer's remorse.
