Ordered and paid.
Side note: The communications cable listed on the site doesn't appear to be a USB. Will the BootButton cable work for the communications or will it require your cable?
Thanks,
From what I know: You won't use your BoostButton USB cable, it isn't needed. For the basic connection you just need to run plain wire and some spade connectors at the SCI port. The cable on the site is offered for convenience.
If you plan to flash a SBEC I believe a solution for the necessary protection is being worked on.
So for those of us that wish to assemble the unit ourselves, will the kit be configured with the component relocation in mind? I.E. the 90 degree header for the BT module? Also 50*C is not bad for the DC-DC, but to flirt with caution rather than disaster, would there be enough room for a passive heat sink be installed? I have some copper heat sinks laying in a drawer for some old PC memory that are designed to just cover the memory chips rather than the whole stick.... I have never had a use for them, until now?
Miles kindly developed the following post to guide in the DIY assembling:
http://www.turbo-mopar.com/forums/sh....php?p=1134868
The board will be labelled with some silkscreen identifiers for the component locations. As soon as we have a v2.7 board in hand, we will post a pic of the bare board. Once we have an assembled board we will post a detailed image of that too. Anyone from the earlier groups that assembled their own had no more information than that. If that isn't sufficient, let us know and we can try to fill in any gaps.
Personally, I have not assembled one yet, but I intend to try doing one myself, so then I will have the perspective on any missing instruction.
The old group thread had those pictures, if you would like to see examples.
Here's an example of the bare v2.5 board:

I had a life problem that hit the finances hard, but still plan on ordering one. It may just be a couple of weeks.

Yes Morris you need one of the new batch for testing & development.
The paid orders have different text color, but that is not showing up on my tablet with The latest tapatalk app version. It should show up correctly on a browser.

And paid here too! Michael Basye/Guyondacouch. This has had an awesome turnout, 39 people on the list so far, and most already paid!! This is a perfect example of why I love this community. When someone has a great idea, people get behind them and support the crap out of it! I can't wait to put mine together
I Love the you tube videos on theMpscilink.
I am literally just coming across this today, after just getting back into the TD game after a long time off!
I got my GTC out of storage of 10 years and just got it running!
how can i get in on the group buy?
Thanks
Marty
Welcome back Marty!
You should be able to get in, as there are others who have not paid but were interested. And we were trying to plan to have some extra boards.
I have however already made the big order for the displays for everyone who had paid up to today.
If you are interested, get your order in and i can see if i can add your display if my order has not shipped yet.
For anyone else that wants an update, we are waiting for the new design boards to be delivered.
I have got alot of the wire orders ready, but have to get caught up on the last few.
I ordered some parts to fix a v2.5 board that had a bad BT module. This will also test a part that will help make the module replaceble without any resoldering. This batch has replaceble BT as part of the design specs.

Wow, received the display order a few minutes ago.
I'll try to check everything out this weekend to make sure the order is complete.
That was really quick shipping with DHL from Shenzhen.
Anyone still outstanding in ordering/paying I will wait until all the remaining confirmed have paid to make one last order for displays.
