Ardu_ECU / FADEC for model jet engines

Description

Ardu_ECU Board (Firmware Rev 11, Board Rev 1.0 )

Ardu_ECU is an open source ECU for gas start model Jet engines.

This board is based on ESP32 microcontroller and comes with Ardu_ECU Firmware 11 pre loaded.

For a fully functional controller you will need to add ESC’s (Electronic Speed Controllers) for Starter Motor and Fuel Pump. In addition you will need to use a max31855 K type thermocouple and sensor board to connect to ECU for temperature measurement.  It takes RPM input as a 3.3-5volt square wave and can work with 1 pulse per revolution  or 2 pulse per revolution RPM sensors. The type of sensor can be selected from setting menu.

The ECU settings can be modified and sensor data can be monitored through a built in WiFi Web Server.

The board can be reprogrammed like other Arduino boards through serial pins by using a USB to serial converter (Not Included)
