Re: MJOY 16 and Igor Plug Update
Mongo that's very nice of you. I actually don't have much into it yet I would feel better waiting until we see if the pcbs are good before I take any money, and for that matter any at all. Not much r&d anyhow on the hardware, it's 100% from Igor and the Atmel app note. I am really looking forward to getting the boards in everyone's hands so we can start testing and writing significant code for them.

Re: MJOY 16 and Igor Plug Update
Hi
A few guys from Poland developed a PCB for MJoy (can be ordered from polish service drukowane.pl) and also an extra PCB for 8 extra encoders (MJoy has only 3 encoders). Try this http://mjoy16.googlepages.com/ Site is in polish but You can write in english.
Write if You have any questions.
PS. Sorry for my english.

Re: MJOY 16 and Igor Plug Update
Hi,
Yes, that looks very similar to the PCB that Frakk did a while back, coupled with the encoders bards. I can't read the website,. does it say someplace that the firmaware is the MJOY 16C version? I love being able to configure the baord in 2 different ways with a jumper. Compared with boards like the latest Bodnar card, this design with all of the diodes is sort of out-dated, but for the price, and open-source, I don't really mind. I have found mine to be rock-solid, I fly everyday using it to operate rudder pedals, flaps, speedbrakes, etc.

Re: MJOY 16 and Igor Plug Update
There is no written that it is C firmware version. What is that special in version C ?
I agree, MJoy is great for simmers. A lot of people in Poland built it.
MJoy is very simple to build, but there is luck of digital outputs etc. There is plenty of project having this (OC, FSBUS etc.). But last days, a friend of mine and me, started to build a simple project for LED, 7-LED displays and LCD (HD44780). There will be a few devices very simple to build. It will allow to build simple panels for gears, radios and so on. More info (in polish) http://www.simout.wa.pl/ There is also a software in development.

Re: MJOY 16 and Igor Plug Update
Ok, the Igor Plug ( model is IP-8 from here on out) PCBs came in are tested, they work great. I will assemble and test the 4 units for the beta test guys and the coders. Will notify you when they get in the mail. One small problem is that they goofed the pinout for the terminal block, so if you want to use the spring-loaded terminals like on the Bodnar board you have to mount it on the bottom of the board! Other than that they are great. I mounted mine on the bottom for testing. If we end up ordering more boards I'll make sure it's corrected in subsequent batches. It's a simple build, only 1 chip, 3 resistors, 1 crystal, and 1 USB socket to solder, took me 5 minutes. I ran out of 20-pin IC sockets (more on the way) so the 4 I send out will not have sockets. If anyone is interested in having an IP-8 I will be submitting a complete tutorial asap, along with some test code and examples on how I coded some of the examples. Right now I am trying to get my darn digital camers to work so I can post some pics!
