Quoted from Snux:Now although I've been familiarising myself with the Arduino-based coding framework for this controller, I've not had time yet to start putting together something for Flight 2000. Yet I still want to give the boards a quick run. So I installed them, but only connected up the lamp drivers for the moment.

I uploaded the code to each of the 3 Arduinos (one acts as a master running the main game code, one handles multi channel sound and the other handles the displays). The game code I uploaded was Jim's example from his High Voltage game (which was a retheme of a Future Spa). That code boots into an attract mode, so I figured if just the lamps were connected at least we can see what happens.
So, power on...... and the displays come up....

Now they look a little odd. But they were a somewhat hokey even with the original MPU board in, so I probably need to chase down some connector issues. But they're displaying values, which means the display Arduino is doing it's job.
And the lamps?

Quoted from sven:No, seriously: really cool! Both Jim having designed this board and send his first boards to customers, as well as you starting this game.
Great progress Mark. It really makes me happy to see another project start up using my boards. More boards will be leaving the workshop soon to for other peoples projects.
