Basically all you have is the UHF & elec panel (minus the DC test switch). Have any of you modified the LUA file to be able to assign keybindings to these switches? Couldn't they work through DCS Bios though?

Corvidae Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 Been wondering if people would be up for doing something like the Open Hornet Project but for the Harrier? Maybe create a discord where we could talk Harrier cockpit stuff, share our work, findings and pool our knowledge etc 1
Bog9y Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 id be up for that. I'm about 2/3rds done with my build

There is a couple of Harrier FB groups....maybe it'll be easier to join them? or were you thinking of a group tailored to very specific needs?

Already a member of them ^^ I was thinking about a discord group like the Open Hornet Project, specifically for the people building Harrier pits. We could just do it here of course as well.
Bog9y Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Guys, a very kind soul has shared the exact measurements of the UFC (not including the master caution/warning rows). Its approx 136x142 mm . He also shared this, so the panels that the OP shared are pretty much exactly the right size:
Xpendable Posted November 8, 2021 Posted November 8, 2021 I am down with the idea of forming an OpenHarrier group. I am in early planning stages, although I have 3d printed the UFC from here and started 3d modeling the throttle grip. 1

Just got my cnc dialled in and have made some PCB's for my first pass at the MFD's and would be cool to join in with anyone else designing a pit!
Xpendable Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 I did create an OpenHarrier faocebook group. It's just 2 of us so far. Feel free to find us and I'll accept you. I've been working on a CAD model for the seat and cockpit in FreeCAD. I've gotten pretty far as you can see from this screenshot. Still a long way to go. Hope to start construction in March. 2
Thanatos31 Posted October 25, 2022 Posted October 25, 2022 @Xpendabledid you already start construction on this epic Simpit? did you already start construction on this epic Simpit? As I am currently doing a little bit more generic version, I wanted to applaud you for this great realistic version!

Xpendable Posted March 3 Posted March 3 In case anyone comes here to this old thread... Yes, I am still working on this, and yes, construction did start. My project evolved into the OpenHarrier project, and all of the models and designs are open source, made using only open source tools (such as FreeCAD, KiCAD, and Inkscape). We have an OpenHarrier Facebook group, an OpenHarrier Discord, a website, and a GitHub repository. There's still a long way to go, but as you can see, things have advanced quite a bit since 2021.null nullnullnullnullnullnullnullnullnullnullnullnull 2
