A-10C Cockpit by Patriot

Controller for panels:

 

 

Two displays 8" for MFD:

 

 

Cougar frame is small for A-10C. I will make other frame.

CMSP Panel. Not completed (left to paint and engraved lettering )

Aren't those 3 resistors and LEDs on the right the wrong way around or does it not matter?

[agrasyuk]

Looking good there Patriot.

Do you mean diodes? (since you mentioned LEDs) You can install resistors in any direction. Though most people line it up for easier reading. But diodes do matter. Longer leads are anode.

 

I wasn't sure which picture you were referring to.

[98abaile]

Yeah, I thought the resistor had to go before the diode, I guess I was wrong.

This is equivalent.

 

You can also do this: --[Resistor]---[LED]---[Resistor]--- = --[Resistor]---[Resistor]---[LED]---

This equivalent to.

Jesus, man, it is awesome! A really nice job! Are you doing for selling it? Or the spec and everything will be published for the community?

 

Honestly, for creating a cockpits for my favorite plains is really worth to learn electricity and other stuff.

Thank you!

All files and schemes will be shared for all.

I can also make and send any panel for individually if someone needs.

Guys, can anyone help with sizes for caution light?

[Patriot]

 

Next: paint the buttons in gray and engraved.

[agrasyuk]

Ahhh, that looks even better. Now to paint those edges.

Don't have exact warning indicator sizes for you. I estimated them for my panel.

Already :)

 

And without backlight

[Patriot]

Caution light is ready!

Very nice! I was just in Moscow last week for business. Snowed even! :)

[Mr_Burns]

A thing of beauty!

[Patriot]

Tnx!:)

Oh is that right? Glad I missed it. I'm from New York.

 

And the tool used in #36, is that an engraver?

Engraving bit 10 degrees 0.3 mm.

 

 

Does anyone know the dimensions of the attitude indicator?

It shares the same dimensions as the Digital Clock its sitting next to, i have the document here:

 

http://lynx.dk/blueprints/A-10C%20Digital%20Clock%20Dimensions.pdf

 

i made mine own from that, however since i wanted a working digital encoder to be seated, so the engraved dial ring around it is a little bigger than the original:

 

 

u can also make that little dial as a plate that is screwed into the bezel, as i did for the f-16:

 

 

I havent released a blueprint for it, since the clock is the same outer dimensions, but i can do that for you if you want :)

Thank you! I try make with encoder too. Began to design the mechanism in SolidWorks. :)

Do you have skin for cylinder attitude indicator?

Not yet no... i have been concentrating my works on the bezels first.. then later i will move on to real instruments :)

It seems that this instrument won't fit in the multigauge backplate.

Check the reference document that Lynx provided for actual distance allowed between the standoffs so it slides in the backplate cutout
