I just received my Prop-1 controller and my AP-8 sound board from EFX-TEK last week for my newest prop for the year. I'm planning on building a MIB (Monster in a box). I tested out the Prop-1 and the AP-8. Everything seems to be in working order. My program is almost done. I still have to put together a few simple circuits. Once that's done I have to start building the box and put it together. After that debug and modifications. Does anyone have any ideas or hints they'd like to share?

are you using the prop-1 for only the trigger and sound? or for the lid motor as well? if so you may need an external relay depending on the motor you are using.

The prop-1 will be controlling the whole thing. I am planning on using several relays one of which will controll the motor. I am using "walwarts" for the Prop-1 and AP-8 and a computer power supply for the "lid" motor.
