What's next?

Post by Petrovich »

I know this is a little premature, as Micro is not even out yet... But, are there any plans to introduce an even SMALLER... Megasquirt? :) What I'm saying is that a single-cylinder versatile controller with simple wheel-based optical ignition would be great. Something that would fit on large model airplanes, scooters, and lawnmowers, without doubling the final product cost (or weight). Not too many options, basic enough to be cheap, easy, and simple. Nanosquirt :)

I'd actually like to see one sized between Micro and Mega. The MicroSquirt is amazing for how small it is but maybe the size will limit its potential when there is room for a bigger one on most motorcycles. How about maybe a "MotoSquirt" that would be the same size as an OEM motorcycle ECU. The OEM ECU in my 1997 Suzuki TL1000S is roughly 5.5" x 5" x 1.5" thick. Thats alot bigger than a MicroSquirt but very doable on most motorcyles under the seat. This size would allow for more options and maybe better heat management.
If it also allows for the adjustable tuning that most sportbike riders are looking for then the market is there.
