  1. Shape ways sends out flyers to shop owner you can fined the information on the sale in the banner across the top of the site https://www.shapeways.com/
  2. YOu will find them in real MFCDs and CDUs I have not had any fail but they are a price switch to use the dome is just half of the switch the other countach half would be built in to a custom PCB. IF they do fail or break easy enuf to fix with a replacement.
  3. I has a friction lever the big gray lever Lower right the throttle
  4. Because the vectors are not closed the free MS 22558 font if you're using it has holes or unclose vectors. 3 d modeling programs are also not very good at text. I would suggest you make your panel out line and holes and any relief for pcb in the 3d modeling program. Then export the face of your file to a DXF. file and import it into Corel Draw and place your text with your chosen font where you would like it, and save as a corell file then a DXF file for engraving.
  5. No I am very lucky to have all real panels in the cockpit.
  6. Thanks for the positive comment on the knobs.
  7. Well back home and back to work snow has all ready hit the ground so I may just need to rip the side consoles out again to bring in to the house to finish wiring them up.
  8. That is sooo over priced only a major ejection seat company or the USG would pay that.LOL
  9. There are several problems with EL lighting that have been covered over at VP. Noise from the transformer. Burning out and correctly cutting and sealing them. Surface mounted leds are one of the more popular methods of backlighting panels. But using specific material or this type of etching the panel has been mentioned over at VP What success or failure they have had I can't say I no longer visit that site.
  10. Let's make it a party I will bring the beer.
  11. You won't know if the ARU 2B/A or you may find an ARU 11 cheaper. I would not go over $200.00 for a unit on eBay. You will wind up opening the ADI the flags and bars operate on 5V DC the ball 400 Hz 28 V Dc.
  12. I would suggest you get the measurements from the panel then order parts that will fit.
  13. Vegas was fantastic at the Grand canyon now thanks for the tips.
  14. The slot for the 20 Chanel preset selector has been cut in the panel so getting it to work may be a challenge the knobs are available on my knob site for the time being. I am just on my phone wile on a vacation. So I can't post any pictures. This is not the easiest panel to get fully functional
  15. Well guys and galls the wife and I are running away to Las Vegas and the surrounding area. Any recommendations on cool shot to see?
  16. Raise a thread from the dead wow
  17. A few orders were place befor i close the knob shop they will be filled when the customers are happy with their purchases the site will be closed just an FYI
  18. It is the same in the A-10 gimbal. in my cockpit the gimbal is attached to two transfer rods both pitch and roll are transferred down the length of the cockpit in for and aft motion then attache to the DC torque motors
  19. That looks good the way it should i it with a bit of flat sealer to knock off the shine and she is done great job
  20. Sounds great thanks much let me know what beer ya like and i will get a round
  21. well I have the grip stick gimbels transfer rods and DC torque mothers along with H bridge controllers. as long as we don't fry it I am willing
  22. You pretty much summed it up for me a bit of gun feel would be welcome as well.
  23. Well Shapeways shop has been open 3 months two sales and 0 money made you have to make over $30.00 to get a check from them not even halfway there with basically no mark up on the knobs. I think it is time to cut it loose. Thanks to the guys that purchased a couple of knobs but it is a waste of time.
  24. my time in adding accurate new items. Is it correct to answer a question with a question? time for one more
