Buddy-Fox A-10C UFC

[Bamse]

Hello,

 

 

We made an A-10C UFC for sale.

 

 

It's a plug 'n play USB device, 35 backlit buttons with dimming and a working Master Caution light.

 

 

You can read more about it from www.buddy-fox.com

Any plans on f18 ufc?

Nice, and for a good price. However, I am curious about what the Buddy-Fox software does since it is DX compatible and P-n-P.

[Thermal]

Thats a nice looking replica Bamse!

 

 

 

Just guessing.... Buddy-Fox runs something like a Teensy LC, that presents as a USB-HID Joystick and maybe a HID Keyboard as well. It would also be, at the same time, a USB serial connection.

 

Raygun would be a shim that reads DSC-Export data and relays it to the USB Serial port to activate the master-caution.

How much to ship to the US?

Thanks!

 

Raygun translates and sends the exported DCS data to the controller, to turn the Master Caution light on and off in sync with the game.

DX can't do this nor can the game talk to the controller by itself.

Thanks!

It's a custom built PCB with a Gecko MCU and a purpose built firmware.

 

 

How much to ship to the US?

22,20€ which is around USD25

i got mine yesterday. Nice little panel. well made!!

 

sadly i have little problems with the software.

 

it wont work with DCS-Flight panels or DCS Bios. i havend figured it out yet.

 

Flightpanels stop working if i use Raygun at the same time.

So raygun is only for the Master Caution button blinking.

But it would nice if i get both to work

Hi, how long is the warranty and how long you are going to support the controller in case it'll stop being compatible with DCS (Master Caution). Cheers

[Skitter]

it wont work with DCS-Flight panels

Ahh crap !!! I have flight panels too

[BlackLibrary]

the controller works nice only the Master Caution dont blink.

 

if you dont use the Raygun programm it works well with flightpanels

 

 

Edit: an option in the program to take from the own lua (standart) or from DCS Bios

could solve the problem and should not be that complex

What's the warranty like?

[Bamse]

What's the warranty like?

 

 

There's a 6 month warranty for faulty goods, though we do quite a comprehensive QC during assembly and before shipping.

Just got mine, this is a quality piece of gear! Very happy with it, now to learn some of the more esoteric A10C ufc functions :)

 

 

 

 

[Emmy]

That looks great PBR!

Cool, that answers my question. I really don't feel the need for this but it is very tempting to get it anyway. I must need counselling. :cry:

[goslin23]

I am so tempted to order one of these too. I use VR so I'm not sure how much I'd actually use it, but it does look well built. $157 shipped to the US, not exactly an easy decision.

Day one buy for me if you would make F-18 UFC.

Same. The quality of the A10 UFC is excellent.

[microvax]

I got mine this week.

 

The Buttons have a very nice haptic and audible feedback of the button action, the backlight is very good imho. During the day it increases contrast at night it makes the stuff easily readable.

 

The box is also very rigid. Overall I couldnt really be happier with it.

 

The price is imho very fair, given what other products cost and at that point arent even replikas like this.

 

f18 UFC would be instabuy ! :)

[Icebeat]

mine has arrived today, what a pass, highly recommended.

[Deadman]

Size?

[Bamse]

Size?

 

 

Width 245mm (chassis without the dimming knob) and 267mm with the knob.

Height 52mm

Depth 22mm (chassis only) and 26mm with the keymat.

 

 

There may be slight tolerances.

 

 

Attaching it to a baseplate of any kind can be done by using longer M3 screws in the corners and M3 nuts on the backside.
