Re: Mattys Mightyboy

Very nice! Really tidy. The before and after shots are great too, such a big difference.

Re: Sydney meet?

I'd be keen too, depending on dates. Hopefully my car will make it too.

Re: Angas' Mightyboy Project Log

I don't think there would be enough room for them both to be on their side, they are quite tall. 
The first node is the only one that I have put in an enclosure anyway, as a proof of concept. 
If this project goes beyond just being an assignment, I'll just get new boards made.

Re: Angas' Mightyboy Project Log

Thanks!
Yeah, the mistake was annoying, but thankfully it still operates so I can demonstrate it. It is an easy fix but too expensive for a uni project.
Being my first hardware design project, I'm surprised there weren't more issues  :lol:

Re: Angas' Mightyboy Project Log

Hey Zuffen, That sounds like a cool project! Although none of my nodes are currently designed specifically for the temp and fuel gauges, it probably wouldn't be difficult to modify one to suit. As long as we could find the correct CAN message IDs and the data format, it might work. I suppose that us...

Re: Angas' Mightyboy Project Log

Thanks Brayden! I'm currently in my last semester of an Electrical Engineering degree and got to choose my own topic for my final project. The goal of my project is to create a CAN bus system that can be retro-fitted into older vehicles. It was inspired by wanting some modern features in my Mightybo...

Re: EOI: [MIGHTY] NSW Number Plates

That's true. I hadn't thought of it like that. Compared to other personalised plates on ebay, I thought I was starting quite low! They must be dreaming  :lol: Also, I know that this was only the first time trying to sell them. Just thought I'd get a reality check!  I might just have to wait for the ...

Re: EOI: [MIGHTY] NSW Number Plates

Update: No bidders on the plates. I thought that they might generate a bit more interest in the Mightyboy community. Just wondering what you guys think the plates are actually worth? Did I overvalue them starting at $800? Or maybe it wasn't enough time to get peoples attention. I'd be interested to ...

Re: Angas' Mightyboy Project Log

Hey everyone, It's been quite a while since I posted any updates on my project. It has been a bit of a nightmare for the last two years  :cry: 2 months on the road, 4 months off, back on, back off...  One problem after another. I haven't really done any "upgrade" work, it has mostly been a...
