Icebear Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Hello! In the last weeks I have build my own Huey-Panel. I built only the Panels I need to fly and I´m able to build (no radios unfortunately). In addition a Panel, for some Simulationswitches, like Doors, Doorgunner, Nightvision, Autopilot, Kneeboard and so on. My wife cut it with a plotter in self-adhesive film and I stuck it on some backlit acryl. Unfortunately the plotter did not make it really good, so that the result isn´t so good as hoped. But for a first try, it´s ok. Maybe I try it with laser engraving the next try :). Then I put the whole on drawer rails, so that I can push it when not in use under the table: But I can not use the Panel at the moment, because one of my two Bodnar-Boards have stopped working. :mad: I´ve contacted Leo Bodnar and hope he can help me. What do you think, apart from the errors of the plotter and some missing caps? 1
FSFIan Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 That looks amazing, now I want my own desk! (Currently living in a dorm room, no space for a permanent simpit and the desk is not mine to modify). Why can't you use the radios? As far a I remember, the Leo Bodnar boards support rotary encoders, right? Shameless plug: if you have not already, you may also want to check out DCS-BIOS. Its UH-1H support has not been fully tested, but should be complete. DCS-BIOS | How to export CMSP, RWR, etc. through MonitorSetup.lua

Officer25 Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 that looks nice... but I'm really interested in what keyboard you have? I'm kinda been searching for a couple of months but that one you have there seems to be brushed aluminium... and wireless? It looks amazing! what is it :O

It looks amazing! what is it :O It's a Logitech G15 (older version), I have the same one and love it. I've had mine for about 7-8 years and the LED's are starting to go out, need to replace them or buy a new one. http://www.ebay.com/bhp/logitech-g15 i7-4820k @ 3.7, Windows 7 64-bit, 16GB 1866mhz EVGA GTX 970 2GB, 256GB SSD, 500GB WD, TM Warthog, TM Cougar MFD's, Saitek Combat Pedals, TrackIR 5, G15 keyboard, 55" 4K LED
Trubshaw Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 What a good idea Icebear. Thanks for sharing. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] TrubshawRN -=SHREK 94=-
kreisch Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Could you provide us with some additional Infos? This Box looks amazing and right now i am looking for help and tutorials to build something quite similar :) Ugly-Squadron GamestarPinboard
Icebear Posted February 13, 2015 Author Posted February 13, 2015 Of course kreisch. What additional info you mean? I´ve created the layout with Photoshop (which was an error in retrospect, now I would do it with a CAD-Programm), bought some switches on Ebay and other Shops and wired them to the two Bodnar-Boards (which are running perfectly now!). The wiring is really simple, you can´t do anything false with the very simple push in wire connectors on the BBI-32 Boards. Then I programmed all the Buttons to the "Button Box Interface.diff" lua-file in DCS. That was by far the most complicated part of the build. If I would start with it today, I would definitly try the new DCS-BIOS to map the Buttons to DCS. But I had almost finished it as the program appeared. Tell me what you need to know and I will try to help you. Sorry for my "german school english" :megalol:
HeadHunter52 Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 That is a creative way to do it. I like the drawer idea. Very cool. Maybe overhead storage on some business type desks could take a clue on that and sport some hinges upper panels.
