Hi
I was attracted to this thread by it's title, but now I'm confused...
A "Black-Box" is a datalogger, used to record what happens during flight (for later analysis), but what you are describing seems more of a serial I/O device... ie: there is no mention of data storage capacity.
Is the purpose of this board to expand the RC's I/O capability, or is it truly an event logger.
I needed a data logger this year, so I used a serial flash board from SparkFun to do the job simply. Here is the white paper:
