    What I'd love is a program that can take serial data from a PIXACE chip and push it into FSX so I can build my own MCP. I'm not a programmer so would struggle writing the VB code.

    Any clues?

    Great work Jim. I am looking forward to the release of your Link2fsmotion software.

    I have my Velleman card assembled, I have my wiper motors and just about the order my KT-5198.

    Just a thought, is there anyway to put the mosfets of the KT-5198 on a seperate board that has beefed up tracks rather that beefing up the KT board itself (sort of protection for the board)?

    RobiD,

    was reading your post. just an idea...... as I do not have a KT-5198, but is there enough room for header or screw terminals where the mosfets are or off those spots with wire?...and then use decent gauge wire to the other board with (terminals)then that board would have beefed up tracks? Not sure the amperage that the terminal blocks max out at?......but maybe it would be ok

    just an idea to throw in. Probably would not look very clean ...but if it helps.

    Kyle

    That's the type of mod I was thinking about Kyle.

    Would like Jims input on this (when you can).
