Been doing some gearbox controller development and gearbox adapter plates so thought I would share some of the scans I’ve been doing along the way

Love seeing the process. Great job on the adapter! Next you need a custom dash plate to display the screen properly.
Yes that’s on the jobs list to do, I need to cut some of the dashboard so the display will stand up a little more, its a 10.1" display, I could have used a 7" display that wouldn’t have needed any cutting of the dash but i like the bigger 10.1",
I’ve programmed the gearbox controller and display so all the gearbox settings can be adjusted through the touch screen display,
When I’ve cut the dashboard I’ll scan it and 3d print a new pice to fit the screen and finish it off nicely
Wow, fantastic job !!
