Here is a screenshot of the pdf with the pinout for my display, its a unusual 240x64.

There are a few pins here that are not listed on the library page, im curious as to wether or not they are the same with simply different names?

Which library are you looking at, the LiquidCrystal library? That library doesn't support graphics displays.

Here are a couple of projects you can look at that use a similar display as yours.

No lol, Im looking at the GLCD Library.

I lists Pins CSEL1, CSEL2, RW, and a few others that aren't on the datasheet for the display. Im wondering if it's a possibility that they are the same pins, just named differently.

Those projects look cool though, I wonder how the helicopter one side scrolls like that
