Hello! I am relatively new to Arduino, but my partner has many years of experience. The two of us are trying to build a rotary engine management system capable of a maximum 12,000rpm at a rate of 6 combustion events per revolution. Total amount of individual sparks per minute is 72,000 or 1,200 events per second. During these combustion events I will also be modulating dual electronic throttle bodies to smooth incoming air as well as standard engine functionality.
My question is, is the Mega capable of handling the kind to processing power for our application or will the engine exceed the computer's ability to reliably produce spark?
