Trounce Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 Hello ED community! I have reached out before to some of you folks and I have successfully setup Helios and have working toggle and push buttons. I also was able to get an Arduino to display the CMSP for the A10C. I have no knowledge on programming, woodworking, or really not much else. However, this is such a great community, I need to ask if anyone has really, really good instructions for making a front dash. Since I had the huge confidence boost of getting the CMSP going to my screen, I am interested in using the Arduino and learning I2C and servos. It is time to make the cluster of engine gauges. I also want to make a CDU. Quite frankly though, with so much knowledge and help out there, the programming seems actually easier then getting the panels for the CDU. Actually any panels. I made temporary ones with two sheets of acrylic and a printout of the panel in-between. I am super interested in making laser etched/cut panels with back lighting. Can anyone point me into a direction of a source for those? I have looked at custom designs and prototyping businesses but I lack any kind of drafting/drawing software. Any help/assistance would be much appreciated. Quick shout-out, thanks Ian for your awesome DCS-Bios videos, I use that a lot!
