Prony Brake Dyno, CHEAP!, for Small Engines. DIY Arduino based.

This is a detailed video of a DIY prony brake dyno for small motors and engines. It is Arduino based and very inexpensive to make. The video is long so if you only want to see a quick dyno run, you can skip to12:23. But you'll miss a lot of good info.

Where I get the code for Arduino and where I can download the software

Go to the arduino.cc forum and search for the topic
Easy Prony Brake Dyno for Small Motors and Engines
that was started Mrch 25, 2024 by Lloyd-ss.
It is all there.

Hi, Is the program available for download ?

[@1227air500]

I am preparing complete documentation to post on the Arduino.cc forum in the next few days. It will have a PL. schematic, Arduino program and Excel program. What level are you at with electronics, Arduino, Excel, mechanical, etc? This program is also suitable for an inertial dyno in addition to the prony brake/energy absorber type shown in the video.
