  1. Hi Guys,

     

    Its been a long time!

     

    Just showing replacement Warthog Panel for the F/A18 that I have created.

    I have been away for along time, some of you may remember I used to do cockpit panels.

  2. Very nice.

     

    Is there a possibility of a 'shorter ' case to allow mounting in front of a monitor?

     

     

    - Bear

     

    The case can be customised to what size you like depending on which version you buy. It can be no smaller than 8cm depth due to the switches and led's circuit board and the wiring.

     

     

    Very nice, would love one those...shame about the non-blinking master caution though.

    Is it just blinking that couldn't be done or no lighting at all in the master caution?

     

    Also, any idea of a price?

     

    Blinking will work if you buy the fully boarded version or you wire and configure yourself. The one your looking at was to test buttons for constant usage and lighting for a length of time.

    A lot of guys on here want to do there own usb/board configuration (and frankly there good at it) the buttons and led's will be fully wired to our circuit board then will have ribbons coming from the switches and the led for the master caution so they can configure as they wish.

    Others will want to buy a fully finished device that only needs a minimum of setup to their system.

    As for price we will have that shortly.

     

    Regards

  3. This is the test production run version. the buttons are only painted in primer, and it currently is connected to a bodnar board, hence no flashing Master Caution. I have tested it for over two (hard usage) months with no failures.

    It will be supplied in 2 formats with usbarduino board already wired or just fully wired excluding the usb boards.

    PM me or catch me on the forum for any questions you want answering.

    The casing will also be painted(so not so shiny)

  4. Oooh I will be all over that, especially if you start making functional UFC's and CDU's...one can hope ^^

     

    Keep an eye out soon, possibly this week some of your hopes may be answered:smilewink:

  5. Thanks guys for the welcome back

     

    I must confess to not knowing who you are...but welcome back regardless ^^

     

    Will you be making panels for people to order or just yourself?

     

    for everyone to order

  6. Hi Guys

     

    I am coming back to make panels and more, this time permanently.

    Tried a few times but real life got in the way for quite a while. PM me if you have any questions.

     

    Regards to you all :thumbup:

  7. After a few false starts I am now back for good.

    I will catch up with messages over the next couple of days.

     

    Thanks to you all for your kind PMs

     

    I will be posting pics of my new panels/ufc and the such over the next few days.

     

    Regards to you all

  8. Hi Guys,

     

    Firstly I must apologise for my lack of being on the forums.

    For those who do not know I think its only fair that I explain my lack of appearance, also to those that did know thank you for keeping it confidential.

    On the 19th of Sept I lost my 15 year old son in a vehicle collision.

    I think I tried to come back too early, I have had, as you can imagine, a hard time dealing with it.

    I have not posted this for anything else but an explanation of my absence.

    I am now in a better place to start moving forward, along with my thanks to the lovely comments from the members that did know I would also like to thank you all for your patience.

    That said I am very very happy to announce that Glider is back and looking to the future.

    All this said I have not been idle, I have used the time to improve and perfect the UFC I will release images at the weekend.

    I will try to catch up with all the questions and messages I have received over the last few weeks, please be patient I will catch up.

     

     

    Regards to you all

  9. Looking great there!

    One more question (apart from the ones I sent in PM ;) )

     

    The master caution light: is that always going to be one? Or will I be able to plug it into a phidgets board?

     

    Cheers and welcome back again!

     

    No, the MC light is on only for photographic reasons.

    V2 has the corrections you mentioned, also other improvements.

    Just a little delay caused by me, I will show the new images if not today definetly tomorrow.

  10. Thanks Guys

     

    Pricing will be soon, trying to get it as low as possible.

    So don't really want to jump the gun on fixing the price just yet there is quite a few man hours in each one.

    If the people that are interested PM me and I will reply as soon as the price is available. Hopefully tomorrow after a quick chat with my electronics guy.

  11. I'm Back

     

    Firstly let me say thank you for all the kind messages I have had.

    I am really touched by them. I have been away but now its time to get back up and carry on.

    It is now time to move forward.

    Once again thank you very much.

     

    Now lets get back on track.

     

    UFC

     

    Its really hard to take a good photo of it illuminated, The UFC has LIGHTS ON/OFF and also dimmer.
