F355 TWIN use 2 Naomi

F335 DX should be 4

Airline Pilot DX is 3



You need a SPECIAL comm board, not the one used to link game, in case of DX versione you need 2 different comm board (pcb is the same, but different chip used).

All Naomi have bios (I think different for every games, F355 Twin and Airline Pilot DX for sure are different)



Hope it help

These games in particular connect differently than usual. Normally, the games interconnect via optical cable. These games require that the boards physically connect to each other 'piggy-back' style. The special communication board is sandwiched between them. No optical cables.
