Hello Pinball Nirvana folks,
This is an account of 4 Electronics Technologist students in British Columbia, Canada. We have taken it upon ourselves to revamp a Gottlieb Panthera machine. Most of us knew nothing about machines when we decided to take on the project but we are diving right into this.
Our scope of the project is:
- Make the machine work and feel like an original (with flexibility to add improvements if time allows)
- Gut and replace the old MPUs and equipment that were used in 2007 for a project
- Run MPF software with a LISY80 board and design our own PCB driver board
- Replace VFD displays with 7-segment displays
We will start a post shortly to document the whole process. Looking forward to communicating with you, and getting to know this great community.
Regards,
-Chris and the Capstone crew
