Would really like to now what he was searching to find them, only Honeywell ones I have seen over here have been very expensive. Just searched Honneywell ET on ebay, and cheapest completed one was £95!

Part 3 - Cutouts!

RAZBAM_Zeus67Today at 2:36 AM Old ones have the rotary. Most current ones had the knob replaced by a rocker switch. RAZBAM_Zeus67Today at 2:33 AM Keyboard commands for radios control, nav course and ins mode have been included.

Ok I have recreated the mil standard in metric, DEADMAN, can you review and confirm I aligns with the spec. Mil-STD-25212C Metric v3.pdf

Actually conversion is 25.4mm = 1" And you are right the machines are set up in Metric, I am presently comparing the document I am using against the standards, and there is not that much wrong, the main thing seems to be a discrepancy on the hole width centre point, although I suspect this maybe a tolerance stack issue, one of the biggest issue is the mil standards are 3rd hand photocopy standard which can give some issues with doing correct stacks and tolerances. Ohh and there is a major cockup in the appendix where the panel heights are way off in Imperial, but spot on for metric. so it wouldn't be something I would have noticed.

Thanks, I have changed into a plain link, the youtube embed thing doesn't want to play ball. I agree if I wanted to do it fully right I would use imperial, but my software and specifically my CNC all operate in metric, and I can directly relate to metric not so much imperial, the numbers from this document should be good enough. I have previously looked at some mil standards, and although they are 'right' I like the way the document I am referencing is laid out, it makes it as for dummies as possible, but if there are any major errors I would really be interested in what they are if the group knowledge here could create an improved version, I would see this as a brilliant outcome, what I want to achieve with this is for a beginner to be able to have a good crack and making there own panels for what ever plane they want to do.

Started a series of videos on designing panels.

you can definitely do it via dcsbios

I believe they actually have to remove the entire wing assembly yo get put the engine, combine that with all the gubbins for vtol probably goes along way to explaining it.

If you can see the target in the tpod, you can directly push it to T0, think you have to use laser ranger on it sub 8 miles and press and hold waypoint increment for over a second, you tube is your friend here as there should be some vids

Very nice, not been able to make progress myself due to life

I have it been ongoing for several days, yet if i start a simple profile i created the axis are working fine, personally i think the target software its self is buggy and in sore need of updating.

Homefries, arr the update servers down, my joystick axis suddebly stopped working, even thought it is working as an dependent, was going to run an update to see if it fixed it.

Glad to see it worked Fish, will admit I havent got arount to installing mine yet....

https://discord.gg/R7ShxHE That should work. I just used plasticoat black spray, hope fully I would get an issue from multiple layer, but will just have to try it. I think if I keep it thin layer it should be ok

Back lighting test, definetly need at least 2 layers of paint, maybe 3

Well if you want we can talk in voice this evening, you on Razbam discord? Also this is very much B-Sample and will be remade...

Mostly Fusion 360, it has the duet on it with its build in web app that actually runs the G-Code, but the design, cam and G-Code is all from Fusion

Swichs with caps sorted, will not rotate, front panel sprayed awaiting engraving.

Testing back lighting, original plan to use 5mm led was no joy, so now using 3528 smd led, 5 pence each with a 5mm square foot pribt and only 1mm thick, they also have a wider light spread, will be ahiining through 6mm opaque, and maybe 3mm clear for even spread. More tests to follow.

Managed to get a couple of hours and do the next layer, 1 more to go though it may take a few days, due to an idea to keep the switches aligned.

Costs well i have 100 quids with of switchs, i think, and as for the cnc router and 3d printer.... about 1.2k, but i see these as investments , but i am hopping to set things up so if people want panels i can provide at a fair peice

So my panel build has began in ernest, this is 2mm alluminum cut and tapped, next stage will be the opaque plexiglass

Dmitri, that sound like you tried to pickle on the reflected cue, if you do that it switchs to a temporary auto mode. For which you need to hold the pickle button until the bomb pickles
