Received the package. The 3.2 board looks good quality.

Wasn't too impressed with case endplates - different materials and the rear plate wasn't machined to take the seals. Seal needed trimming to fit around clamping plates. Screws were ambiguous...

Spent some time in wiki looking for where to start building/testing. Couldn't quite find where to begin the required assembly (if any). Searched for specifics on functions I knew I'd need - serial, idle stepper, WBO2, injector drivers.

Soldered on a 3-pin header for serial communications. Didn't see an obvious description of how to connect serial via the EC.

Soldered on the stepper driver.
