ive got a memory card hooked up an arduino, is it as simple as writing the .elf to the memory carD?

No, you need to use something like FreePSXBoot builder to create a memory card image that loads the executable. https://github.com/brad-lin/FreePSXBoot/tree/master/builder

If you want to write to PS1 Memory Cards then yes, as @alex-free already explained you can use it. If you want to write to PS2 Memory Cards then no. PS2 cards are not supported by MemcardRex.
