Hi.

I think Mobiflight itself got no limitation for number of Arduino Boards. ( Sebastian told these)

Youre System got a limit.... Not shure but i think it´s 128 for a Win7 64bit System. But this means USB Devices... Youre Mouse, Keyboard Joystick etc are devices too.

Additional i read in the past that lsome users not reach this limit and become problems with less then 128 devices. Maby 40-50 is a good save number. you have to test this youreself on youre system.

Important.... Youre Power device is normaly not strong enough to support lots of Controllers. If you use few arduinos think about a external Power Managment..
Good Luck !
