Puma board (spin 1)

Nope, you'd probably be the first from there, I would say. Most honda guys aren't overly interested because OEM tuning options for hondas are so strong. In any case, glad to have you on. Simon/Uterus is off os.co.nz, he's a GC :-)

At this point, or some time in the near future, I think we should either have a bet or at least a forum poll about what happens with this first spin. I know many folks claim it takes three spins to get a layout done. A poll/bet might be based on these potential problems.

Nothing wrong, it works just fine.
It goes up in flames when powered for the first time.
It needs minor (pcb/trace) rework on sub circuits, but basically works.
Sub circuits work, but could use some additional optimization.
One sub circuit fails catastrophically, resulting in nitrousnrg loosing an eye, or finger.
Everything works well, except Fred is right and we have to change the MCU pin out.
Our files appear fine, but there is some kind of MFG problem that requires significant new work.

I always feel like it's the first option, but the options that follow it still seem to happen.

LOL @ that! I have another option to add, but the poll is a good idea, and pretty thorough, let me put it up.

Perfect!
b-day now, but I'll put leds to crank/cam inputs and 12v when I'm back. DRC, and some extra vias for better thermal dissipation.

The guys should answer tomorrow, if everything is ok I pay. It will be time to put some effort on the BDM and finish the oven.

And LOL, just expect a few burns from the soldering

Yo deseo Ceci un muy feliz cumpleanos, amigo! Pasala esta en a ella! Gracias! :-)

OK, I just sent out a last chance email to 25 forum members that have been active in the past or are OG! 3 bounced immediately lol... maybe a few more will make it on time.

We need a scheme for those coming later to get them from early birds that changed their mind. I'm sure there will be some of each. Marcos' timing for an order is about as bad as possible and through some hard work, we've still come up with good interest in it. Very positive for future iterations if this one goes well.

If you change your mind, you've still gotta at least pay for the board, or find someone else to buy it.

If you come late, post here, someone might want to pull out.

Fred.

Thanks for the heads up Fred.

I'm down for two, just let me know how to get whoever money.

Been busy with other vehicle projects, I gotta get back on this to get the bike ready for race season
