7" HDMI screen

[Naish]

I want a screen as a dashboard to run, for example, the Z1 software. I think a usb connection.

Anyone any experience where to get such screen?

You mean a tablet? There's loads to choose from these days.

No, a tablet a 7"screen as a dashboard. To see my gears.

I've been running one of these and it's been perfect so far.. Just hunt around for a good price..

I made a cover for it in Fusion 3D and got it cut out of 3mm Acrylic

I personally prefer the screen and arduino solution. AMstudio has a video on that too. Not using HDMI means I dont have to screw around with my monitor configuration.

both do the job. I guess it's preference The monitor is a bit more versatile if you want to use it for more than a racing display.
