Wow that's really impressive, always thought the vx dash was showing it's age, this product will move it not just upto but ahead of most current dash,s. Love the race dash screen.

So gents , Any ideas on what else an app can do for you ? So far all I've had is the "less is more" comment I'll be at the national with the test car , So you can be as honest as you want after you see it :-)

can you just take my money please?  8" of goodness..

I would look to get it hooked to a raspberry pi. That way you have a vast array of options available to you: Radio Obd software Navigation without phone CCTV recorder Alarm notification Document storage (user manual etc) Gps active screens - turn up at a track and automatically turn on track apps and track screen like on a Nissan GT-R. But back to the original point of view, get the basics working first and sort the bugs out.

[t3dcf]

Apart from the basics, the one thing that would be most useful is ability to have some sort of mapping/satnav ... But that's just me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I so badly need one of these!

Integration with racechrono And generally changing settings like which metrics are shown how each metric is shown (dial/digital/graph) shift light thresholds Switch between Imperial/metric Backlight illumination Theme/background Being a software engineer at heart; it would be awesome to have an API accessable for future 3rd party apps Still I emphasize the need for an initial quick stable release with further functionality added down the road. Before people start looking elsewhere.

I agree...

It sounds like upgrades/patches are easily installed so no need to add further functionality at this point.

Not sure if it's been covered I've only really glanced through this but will you be able to design your own display?

Yes, Yes 

 

I'm listening

 

The first release will be the base version

 

without

 

GPS laptimer

Video input

Datalogging

 

these additions will be available via download at various stages of release

 

preview , beta , stable etc

 

when the updates are applied to the dash a backup of the original software is stored on the update usb stick

 

so after adding any features you can always revert if needed.

For the geek ones here, would love some hardware details

So track season is here, which means it's soon over.... I'm seriously considering picking up an AIM alternative since i need something for this season. Is there any kind of time plan here? Would be good to know if this is planned for '18 so that those who need can move on

It's rolling out at the moment at a sensible pace to deal any with install issues and teething problems Things are not going to any plan If you need something now , with a tested GPS laptimer then it would be better for you to get the AIM alternative . Can not promise you anything for this season , if that means the summer
