u/PlatesNplanes

Posted about a week ago with my controller I have building. I have 6 out of 8 modules done. Still working on throttle. As I get deeper into this I’m actually starting to grasp how much wiring I have. I plan(ned) to run it all of an arduino Mega. And while it has the io to support my needs, I’m not wild about massive cable looms and will also quickly become constrained on space. Has anyone or does anyone recommend running Nanos for each control cluster, and using i2c to link them all. One master the rest slaves? Or shift registers for each cluster/ module, cut 8 wires down to 2. Or am I creating problems that aren’t necessary.
