    While building my version of the excellent Dave Bodnar's throttle, I've played a lot with the Nextion Editor and finally completely rewrote the GUI for my pleasure; here's the result, don't know if someone else will like it, but in case I'll post the code too:

    Happy Easter!

    Max .... well done, there are a bunch of us who have done similar adaptations using Nextion ..... anxious to study your code.

    As promised, here's a Youtube video of the throttle in action:


    All the work is base on great David Bodnar's code!
    Arduino sketch (is the NormHal version 4.01) and Nextion GUI code (again is the NormHal code with rewritten GUI) :
    MPA_VER_5.zip

    and finally STL file of case printed in 3D:
    Throttle wireless MPA Front REW.zip

    I'm working on version 6.0 with POM and programming track CV read and write, will take some time as
    I'm not expert on Arduino coding, anyway the coding is halfway to end!

    Thanks Max, I look forward to seeing what you've done. The functioning of the (modified) throttle is currently under quite a review - being integrated with @Atani's ESP32 Base Station, and getting a couple of new features.

    @Max1963 when you post the next version if you can also post the HMI file it would be greatly appreciated :)
