Rapti

This is the final design. I have now started to laser and engrave the panels. The material is 3mm acrylic white translucent and then painted black. ... and I know, It's "FLY BY" :megalol:

looks great! how are the parking break lever an the wing fold lever works? What switches do you use for this 2 rotate / pul-push lever? --> thats my design.

Hello together, I am looking for a manual that explains the different toggle switches. What do the different switch positions (on-off, on-off-on, (on)-off-(on) etc. mean? I always find this difficult to order the right switches. e.g. the dispenser switch in the FA18? It is marked with "OFF-ON-BYPASS". Which switch do I need there? OFF-ON-ON?

Hi Jester, ich habe in der Tat erst mit dem 3D Druck begonnen. Ich benutze Cura. Über Tipps bin ich natürlich immer froh. Das Endprodukt wird allerdings nicht 3D gedruckt sondern aus acryl gelasert und graviert. Das Gehäuse werde ich CNC fräsen. Habe seit Jahren ne Stepcraft 600...

Den habe ich selber konstruiert. Gehört zu einer Button Box die ich am Bauen bin. STL files kann ich dir senden. Musst halt sagen was...

Bin auch dran im Moment. Das soll der Fahrwerkshebel geben. Im Griff hats dann noch ne LED welche auch über DCS-BIOS angesteuert wird. Muss noch ein zweiter Rollenschalter einbauen...

I am already dreading to wire this. And all the LEDs not even counted...[emoji16][emoji85]

Lights :-)

More progress on the prototype

Prototype in development

First iluminated button test... Housing for button 3D printed. Plates are milled. No resistor needed. 12V.

Few test prints

Hi Les, wow thank you for all the info. This will help alot.

Thanks, i will try it with a bodnar board

Its a button on a self made button box. Im usind DCS-BIOS to communicate with DCS and ardunuo

Anybody?

How do you assign a normal keyboard input to a button? For example "salute" or "active pause" i dontr see any command for this in DCS-BIOS.

Actual progress

You have to set the VR Option in DCS

Hello everyone, I am in the process of designing a ButtonBox for the F/A-18C. What functions should the box have in your opinion. What I have planned so far: Middle: - UFC Right: - Caution Lights - Ejection Handle - Hook - Canopy - Wing Fold Left: - Handbrake - Dispenser - Master Arm - A/A - A/G - Jettison - LaunchBar - Flaps - Gear - Master Cauton Light what else? - Console / Inst Pnl / Flood brigthness? - Dispenser? what doesn't make sense?

Thank you very much. Best Regards Rapti Gesendet von meinem SM-G988B mit Tapatalk

Hello administrator, I have accidentally chosen my email address as my username. Can I change this somewhere or can an administrator change my username to Rapti. Otherwise my profile can be deleted and I create a new one with the same email address.

Sorry, solution already here. Ardunio was running at 3.3V. With 5V it works of course Sorry for the useless post

ello, everyone, i try to control the internal lighting with a potentiometer via dcs-bios. This is basically very simple and works so far. My problem is that the rotary switch in the cockpit does not go to the maximum position when turning the potentiometer. I can see this in the DCS-BIOS control reference. Code is: DcsBios::PotentiometerEWMA<5, 128, 5> consolesDimmer("CONSOLES_DIMMER", A5); The values 5 / 128 / 5 have no influence on the Range. I have already tested this. Does anyone have an idea?
