Zizo Advanced Modular Engine Control Unit [ECU]
This is a microcontroller that can run any modular engine, as long as you provide a air connection, fuel connection and a sufficient exhaust output.
Features
- Automatic starters
- Automated RPS Control
- Dynamic Air/Fuel ratio
- Can handle sudden changes in air intake pressure
- Temperature safety throttle decrease
- Option for generator mode while at idle RPS
- Optimal for any type of vehicle [Air/Sea/Land]
- Fully configurable
Installation
- Connect all the logic nodes.
- Open the properties panel and change the cylinder count.
- If you have generator mode enabled, after the modular clutch you need other 2 conventional clutches, one going to your drivetrain and the other going to a generator. In this case also provide a constant 1 number to the modular clutch.
- Enjoy.
Usage
- Turn on with a toggle button or a key switch
- Operate with a throttle lever set 0 – 1
Tips
- 3×3 size modular engines are usually best even considered their volume and weight.
- Cooling is very hard to achieve, I suggest using impeller pumps powered by the engine itself.
- Make sure coolant is flowing into A port of the cooling manifold and not flowing the other way around.
- Have the same amount of fuel and air manifolds.
- Make sure you have enough exhaust manifolds so that even when running at full power the cylinders display "100% exhaust".
