Meanwhile Paul
Bennett has been busy making the electronic speed controller
and charging circuits, I have not physically seen the
assembly yet, but I understand that an area of about
one square foot will be required to mount the hardwear.
|
|
The start of
the control electronics, I expect I owe Paul half a shandy
for this, possibly a pint when completed. |
|
|
|
The controller electronics are coming
along nicely, thanks to Paul & Ian.
|
|
A pair of high voltage DC fuses
installed. |
|
|
|
One of the issues that I will have
with this MkI MGF is that the speedo gauge is mechanical
and as the original
gearbox, where the drive came from is no longer part
of the car I have decided to replace the clocks
with
ones
from
a
MGTF that
are
electronic.
|
|
Yet another nice word with Paul
and hopefully he will be able to make me a pulse circuit
that will drive the speedo from the differential, at this
point I may also integrate the on board warning indicators
with those of the custom computer control system. |

|
|
The sub frame and running gear setup
for testing the speed controller at Paul's house. |
|
The Phidget boards that will interface
the engine to the computer thus showing live data
at the display. |
