Questions

How big is the Frontcontroller PCB?

It measures 73.7 × 83.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Frontcontroller use?

26 parts, built around the ATMEGA32-16PU, MCP2551-I/P, LM7805 and MCP2515-E/P. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Frontcontroller KiCad files?

From the ASURacingTeam/Formula-17-Class-1-Front-Controller-Arduino repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/frontcontroller.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Frontcontroller design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask ASURacingTeam before reusing the design.
