I didn’t have any fitment issues but will note that I printed with a .25mm nozzle. The rotating parts are retained by the slotted top plate. The rotating parts go through the slot, are rotated 90°, and then aligned with the bottom part. I’m away from home so can’t look at it to better describe or send photos of it. I did notice that the key caps on the ends may need to be a bit taller to properly engage and lock the key in place once depressed. I haven’t reprinted mine since it’s already assembled but will likely shim it to make it easier to engage without having to press so hard. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Found this thread looking for an answer to this issue. Is there a plan to fix this given how long it has existed? Refueling in the air does fill the external tanks.

It is indeed a slider. I dug through some photos I took of a Tomcat at my local combat air museum. Hope this helps

I've added the files to the Displays folder on my Google Drive, here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1rrUQlNpU-wKkSrAOQxiDp-cownTLd8pz?usp=sharing If there are any problems downloading them, please let me know. Files for other panels are saved there too.

Re-did the Displays panel to use the piano switches. Still need to finish the wiring and test it in DCS but man it turned out great. Appreciate everyone who has helped and shared their STLs. If anyone wants this specific version, I’ll gladly post them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I love it. But I have to ask, are the circuit breakers modeled in DCS? From the pilot’s chair, I’ve never seen that they are clickable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

@Hagen Can you post a picture or a link to the threaded M3 inserts you used? I can't find these locally so would like to see what you used and attempt to purchase the same style. I'm really excited to get this built and working! I had built one using momentary push buttons with LEDs to indicate the selection, based off of this. null

Added engine cutoff switches to the throttle quadrant today. Wanted to keep this as simple as possible without trying to do virtual buttons from an axis. Used two reed switches and two magnets connected to the Leo board. Once the breakout board matrix arrives, the entire throttle quadrant will be connected to the Leo Bodnar BU0836A. The only other thing I think would be useful is a slide potentiometer to use for zoom. Currently use the slider on my Virpil throttle for that and it works great. What have others done for zoom in a full cockpit build? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[emoji1787] No, the mouse was just completely dead until I unplugged the Bodnar board. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Reached a bit of a milestone for myself tonight. Successfully tested all axis controls on Yogi’s throttle quadrant in DCS! For simplicity, I used a Leo Bodnar BU0836A and after a bit of trial and error, got everything working perfectly. Things to watch out for or need to know: - One of the throttle gears was slipping on the pot shaft and had me thinking it was a faulty or damaged pot. I believe it’s the 18 tooth gear. Reprinted it but had the same problem so either my pot shaft is undersized or the hole in the gear is slightly too large. Easy fix is either gluing or reducing the hole size in CAD before reprinting. - Run windows joystick config and calibrate all axes before launching DCS. After doing this, I only needed to invert axes and didn’t need to alter the curves or anything. - Ensure the pots are properly wired/connected. I had 1 mislabeled wire and it took a while to figure out why I couldn’t get the board to be recognized in Windows. This also led to interference with my computer mouse… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The Bodnar board was very attractive to me to reduce the number of USB cables going to the PC. For those with multiple Arduinos, are you using I2C to daisy chain them or USB hubs? If I2C, I’ll have more questions [emoji6] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anyone had success using these rotary encoders? Messing with it last night, I couldn’t get it to work with the Leo Bodnar BBI-64. The really cheap EC11 encoders I got off of Ali worked just fine. I have not attempted it with a Pro Micro though. https://www.diymore.cc/products/rotating-potentiometer-knob-cap-digital-control-module-rotary-encoder-controller-switch-5v-diy-kit-electronic-pcb-board-module Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's exactly what happened. It was incredibly simple after using the right zip file. Thanks for the help guys

I manually added the Quaggles files to the DCS folder per the instructions on GitHub and the Munkwolf files to the saved games folder, not using OMM at all. Very glad it’s working but I’m obviously missing key points of using OMM. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Manually installing the files worked but it doesn't seem that Open Mod Manager is working for some reason.

Hey guys. Have tried to get this to work for a few hours and seem to be spinning my wheels. Testing out Quaggles input command injector mod with Munkwolf's Community Keybinds. First, my assumption is that I should see all of the community keybinds in the game that I see in the default.lua file, after the mod has been installed. If my assumption is wrong, please let me know. At this point, I have not tried to create any custom bindings myself. In my example, I'm looking at the F-14B module and focusing on the TACAN keybinds. Specifically wanting to test out the Mode Normal/Inverse and X/Y with 'or else' binds so I only need single throw switches to save on inputs. Followed the instructions for setting up Open Mod Manager and adding the mods in what is the appropriate location, as best I can tell. Both mods are installed. In DCS, I don't see any of the additional keybinds for the F-14 that are in the community keybinds, default.lua file. Checked the dcs.log and am not seeing anything related. Where am I going wrong? File paths are shown in the screenshots below. dcs.log is attached Thank you null dcs.log

I’d be interested in it too. I’m at the stage of needing to build the side frame to attach what panels I have and use them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

@Yogi8 Do you have a the DCS Bios stuff figured out for the throttle quadrant? Anyone else have files available for Arduino / Pro Micro? I'm ready to ditch my Virpil stuff and switch over to the home built panels

I was able to download everything off of either Cults3D or Thingiverse and there may have been a part or two sourced from attachments in this thread. Another member sent me a modified file for the left throttle handle with a bend to reduce the space between it and the right throttle. I remember crudely modifying a couple of files to allow the use of a momentary slide switch for the speed brake. I still have all the files I used but will admit it’s not organized well on my computer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m really enjoying seeing the progress everyone is making. I hadn’t touched mine in several months and all the recent posts inspired me to get back to work. I tested out the throttle quadrant and have all buttons working connected to my Leo Bodnar BBI-64, but found that it doesn’t support potentiometers so will need to use a pro micro for the pots. I’ve resumed design and 3D printing of control panels, focusing on the left side first. I do have a question about the side panels since I have not yet committed to doing a full cockpit- at what angle are the side panels in relation to the floor?

For HSD and VDI displays I’ve used SpaceDesk to run iPads. I haven’t found a solution for all the gauges yet. If they can connect to dcsbios, is the limitation of displays connecting to the gpu even an issue? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

@LASooner Do you still have the ACM switch covers available for download somewhere? My TEK Creations ACM panel just arrived and I went back to order these parts and found that ShapeWays is down and read they are permanently shut down. I believe the files used to be downloadable from ShapeWays but I hadn’t previously downloaded them. I searched for an internet archive of the site but was unsuccessful.

Thanks for the link to the RWR! I hadn't seen that before. I haven't begun looking for proper screens for the VDI or HSD yet but what I have done is use older iPads as monitors using SpaceDesk (free app), just for the VDI and HSD. I was just hoping that when I got to the point of making the instrument panel housings that the iPads I have would fit. Can you share a link to the 5x5 screen you found for the VDI? I found these a while back. I'm not using them but thought I'd share for anyone not wanting to start from scratch. https://www.printables.com/@DX6_393740/models

Hope this helps!
