Hello, mobiflight is a great software. It can make self-made possible without learning complex programming. But now it has encountered problems. Because there are too many output / input boards for Arduino development, can it use 74hc4067 as the output / input extension of Arduino?

No

Mobiflight not work with matrix sytems, multiplexer and so on.

We support 1 Arduino overall..... and thats the MEGA. Every Switch or LED is simply connected to a Pin.
If you need 100 Buttons you need 100 Pins.... In Case a Mega allow 51 Pins You need here 2 Megas.

In case number of Megas in your system is not limmited ( Hardcap nearly 100 Boards but a full cockpit need maby only 30-50 so no matter) you can simply add a new board if you need pins for new stuff.
Good Luck !
