Bottom instrument panel is complete :drink: With 3d printer in my workshop things are more easy so I have started work on ammo counters, simply belt mechanism should made the job :).

Spitty Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Amazing update..Interesting note on the armour plate.Due to the rails narrowing they made up pivots for the plate so it narrowed with the rails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

draken152 Posted November 3, 2018 Author Share Posted November 3, 2018 Thx for all you kind comments guys... Altimeter is finished and on final place, it was really challenging construction with 3 steppers... Debugging was really time consuming and also some improving of the design was needed :) An here it is in action: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Building FW190D pit ,,To Dora with love" http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=132743 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

draken152 Posted January 16, 2019 Author Share Posted January 16, 2019 So Artificial Horizon is complete all function tested. I just need to make final test of all function together and with upper instrument panel. It is not 100% copy of original, It was necessary to simplified little bit design due the different functionality requirements. In general I am satisfied...:) I will post a video of final test later on...

Tape is only added for calibration/warping purpose....This will be warping weekend :megalol: So finaly video of upper panel Any advice for 270 FOV setup of DCS is welcome ...

draken152 Posted March 22, 2019 Author Share Posted March 22, 2019 Ammo counters off a 109 are the same.Found these online. Thanks spitty. My main problem with this mechanism was, I want to use vid 29, but due the force requirements it was not strong enough. I have build two prototypes one with belt mechanism second with gear mechanism but reliability was poor. Now I give up with vid 29 and ordered stronger steppers from China. You can see how I want to use them... Marcq thanks for your kind words...

Spitty Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Great work :) Looking good.I started designing a pit off the plans from CheckSix but found it a bit basic so started my own that was closer to original build.I prefer aluminium than wood as Im a sheetie by trade so Im more comfortable using it for construction.
