Multiple Maps with Power FC?

Is there a way to store more than 1 map with the Power FC?

Would FC Datalogit be a solution? Or do I need to buy another Power FC without commander and hook it up to a switch?
I need another map.
Thanks for the help.

only way that i know is to use a datalogit to change the maps as you go
maybe you could use a palm running the datalogit software for ease to change maps?

Anyone else have any ideas?
The Palm might be an alternative, but looking to see if there is a solution where it can easily be switched from Map #1 to Map #2 without having to whip the laptop out.

Basically want to be able to switch maps on the Fly. Is this at all possible?

TIA

Hello Paul,

I'm constantly switching from 91 octane (for daily driving duties), to 100-110 octane for racing.

I want to be able to switch maps quickly (after I fill up a tank full of 110 octane, don't feel like pulling the laptop out to start tinkering with a new tune)

Just looking for a simple, quick solution to be able to switch from 1 map to the other without having to do too much work.

i was looking on here a bit ago, and there is a way to switch with the stock ecu. But with the Power FC, just save the map, and put it in once you switch over. Besides that, there is no way to just switch over.
