    Cool cool-skype.png Thank you @Matth.Gyver!
    Go through the plugins list and collect what you find there.
    We still can add undocumented dash data afterwards.

    Hi Nick! It's detailed into the first topic: you will find what kind of arduino is needed and 2 links with the lowest cost supliers I found :)

    Thanks Matt!

    Thank's RacingMat
    I hope you could publish in table format because actually it's not very lisible :-\
    I wanted make an html table but the forum does'nt accept html code.
    Otherwise, you can't put the link in the faq ?

    How give you the writte access to the faq ? If I have this access I could do the update.

    Let's wait for the answer from the administrator RaceRay!

    Sorry, FAQ edition access is restricted by administrator (edition allows accidental deletion...)

    I found a 3inch 12v display in my stock but it's common cathode .
    It seem to be more complicated to drive it (mainly because it is 12v, there is a driver for 5V, not for 12)

    Maybe anyone have a solution ?

    Common cathode will require to source current rather than sink it... You will have to find anoter chip reference. Or maybe someone could advise you (as I have no computer access this week)

    As 4" is better than 3" ;-) you could order a 4" common anode :p

    I think that I'll buy a new one, it will be more simple.
    I've tested a free Android application for RBR allowing to display only gear indicator.
    On my old nexus 3 phone the size is approximately the same of my 3 inch 7 segments and I found the size correct.
    I'm affraid that a 4 inch will be too big

    @Cluclu : you'll find some answers here hopefully for your "8 digits and 8 leds" project and how GameDash is communicating with a Dashboard
