Nice work mate, what is the Glareshield made from, nice curves!!

Pre order is probably used to pay for developers for the F-16 as the current Devs are working on the -18 and DCS systems.

And first sorry second attempt at the arduino slave thing, many thanks to Blue73 and Hansolo for advice: Nor got a 12v in yet, I have an old broken electric screwdriver I am going to rip for the parts.

Posted elsewhere but Landing gear handle:

I run a similar rig, i7 2600k AMD Radeon R9 200 and 16GB DDR3 and I fly happily in 1080p but just checking the GPU-Z and Task Manager has my CPU at 33% with the old R9 at 98%. I was going to upgrade the whole rig as it is long overdue but I might just stick in a second hand 1080Ti or something and save up a bit more!

I will do it for 2,500 Australian Dollars to shamelessly fund a new computer. Just PM me you Bank Details and I will arrange transfer. If you look at the top of this forum thread, there is a good tutorial by TigersharkBAS which provides one option on button boxes.

That is great thanks, really informative, I got all my components finally less now a 5v regulators, some connectors and a junction box. I have an old laptop charger I think is at 12v so a 1A 5V Regulator should be OK with this?

Hi Hans, This has been like a bible to me to get started on the Mega > Nano Master/Slave. Can I ask, you have the 12v power, is that to power your magnetic switches, the only thing I want to power are about 3 LEDs so I shouldnt need the 12V line?? How do you power the Nano's, does the 5v out from the VIN pin on the Mega work? Also, do you have a picture of your junction box? I assume it will be as tidy as the rest of the nice work!

I doubt ED would turn away a committed 3rd party wanting to put a Civilian Aircraft in the system. If the model has a business case then why would anyone care? Dont add it to your server if you dont want it.

I second that, no 8 position rotaries, anyone getting the consumer grade rotaries (ie. <$10) in 8 positions?

Mate that is fantastic, I guarantee you will upgrade it to wood and add side panels! But its perfect!

Mine turned up today, exactly the same one and not bad timing from China! Did you wire it up to test it yet?

Order #1882 just found the email. Cant wait to change it, i bloody hate the current one, what were they thinking!!?

I just made one another way. Have one of these: Cut 5 disks of plexi (you can to them without the drill bit but I did 3 with the drill to create a hole for a LED and 2 without). Sand them Glue, sand again and drill: Thats just a bit of biro, ive got some 8mm ally tube on order. I will sand it entirely and may try and find a suitable paint but its going to have an LED in it so it needs to be transparent.

Bit of a thread resurrection but does anyone know if the jumper leads from the Mega can be bought as a single pin I can connect my own wire to? All I can find are M/M or M/F or F/F sets, I know I can just cut the end off as I only need male on one end, but was interested if you can make your own? Thanks

And so it begins......

That is very tidy! Love your work.

Thanks, I am not blessed with accuracy so plenty of on the fly fixes, hopefully covered by filler and pain!

Will the simulation require the use of the control panel underneath the Center MFD to use the RWR or can you do it all from within the MFD's? I havnt got around to using it yet but noticed its bloody hard to see what is there.

I wouldn't sleep, when I built my own CNC I used double sided tape to hold the acrylic, during a 2 hour cut I checked every 15 minutes, in one of the last button cut outs, happened to be whilst I was watching, the cut out piece didnt stay stuck to the tape or get flicked clear, instead it went under the router bit and screwed the part up and by the time I hit stop on the software the part was lost.... The router is now gathering dust in the garage until I get enthusiastic enough to rebuild it.... Must be very relaxing setting a program going on a decent piece of machinery and not a home built effort!

Which ones? Have a water cooler now from when they were new too not too impressed or polarized but them, (8 years old) have they changed much??

Twice the price? How do you know its good?

Hey how do I check my order status? Not pushing delivery just hope it’s in the line?!

Very well put! Let’s hope some competition straightens them out.

I thought next gen consoles were about the streaming games as a service, not increased graphics?
