Blue73 Posted September 19, 2019 Author Share Posted September 19, 2019 Anytime, happy to help. :thumbup::thumbup: Printed the case and internals at .2mm layer height and the knob and button at .1mm Still need to paint the button, but I think it turned out pretty well, certainly looks the part on my test panel box. All hooked up through dcs-bios and works perfectly. Thanks for sharing your work Blue, really appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue73 Posted September 19, 2019 Author Share Posted September 19, 2019 I'll try that primer, thanks for the link! I've reprinted in red abs, I'm going to see what vapour smoothing can do. If your not planning on painting that much overall, maybe the old rattle can is a better option as you can get some pretty good ones now in the rustoleom range thats great for painting PLA / ABS If you do want the full kit, I personally am a Bigger fan of gravity fed model, The gravity dual action is similar to the ebay model I got and I find it works a treat hooked up to the compressor., In the end I went for a small compressor from supercheap as I figured that way I can use for other things, and I can paint in silence so long as I fill with air first for at least 10 minutes which lets me pump out a few mini's in that time. With airbursh still gonna need a primer and Rustoleum 2x is perfect for this https://www.bunnings.com.au/rust-oleum-340g-ultra-cover-2x-spray-paint-grey-primer_p1580683 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DERacing Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Has anyone in the US sourced the correct rotary switch and the push button yet? I am just not having much luck on any of these as I normally get most of my stuff off of amazon. I greatly appreciate any help to source those parts. Thank you in advance!

Blue73 Posted September 23, 2019 Author Share Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) I sent a push button to a member in Europe, $23 postage for a $4 switch... Mouser has the rotary selector it's just the push button. If I can find one on Mouser that is close I can redesign to suit.

Jester_ITA Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Almost there... need to print the small gear and the button... all same color cause i don't have other filaments, i'll paint them later.

ColdFront_WI Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 First of all, this design is AWESOME! Thanks blue73 for creating it...I'm making some updates to my Hornet pit and plan to incorporate it. I did have a couple of tweaks that I wanted to share. First, as many have noted the pushbutton is difficult / expensive to source outside of Australia, so I created an adapter that will work with this button: https://www.newark.com/multicomp/r13-509a-05-bb/switch-pushbutton-spst-3a-250v/dp/03P2491 I got it from Newark electronics but there seem to be a lot with the same dimensions on Amazon. You just glue adapter on top of the button plunger, and then into the Jett button in blue73's design. Second, I happened to have these rotary switches that I picked up from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074WMC9C8 They fit the original frame, but have 6mm splined shafts instead of D-shafts. So I tweaked the multiselector gear to accommodate the splined shaft. STLs and Fusion360 files for the both the pushbutton adapter and splined shaft version of the multiselector gear in the attached zip file.

Barny Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Cheers RightStuff, happy to share! If you do see my Paypal address appear you'll know my employment status has changed. :noexpression: Yes an 8pos would improve the design as the selector gear would be larger. Locally there were no 45deg rotary's available so I geared it down to accommodate a 30deg rotary. If there's demand for it I can redesign for a 45. I've used 45's on my INS and RADAR controls. Waiting for the pull action on the RADAR knob to be DCS-BIOS controllable though. cheers John Blue73, this is a real gift! does this reply count as demand enough? I'm holding off butchering my 8 pos 45 degree to incorporate a push button. Thanks for all these beautiful stl's, a i:1 gear would be the icing on the cake:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyPeacock Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 This is awesome! I don't suppose you would be prepared to share the original Fusion files please? I'd like to alter the mounting lug positions of the main frame part to better fit a panel I am working on. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
War_Pig Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 I printed this a few days ago, and just want to say THANK YOU for releasing the files. It came out incredibly, what a beautiful mechanism. Now on to wiring it up and building a tilt panel to hold it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purzel Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 (edited) Hi @Blue73 I'm struggling to find the damn pushbutton. At mousers they will sell only from 2000pcs. upwards and it's not available at the moment. Do you know another source?

Purzel Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) @Blue73 Thank you for your excellent work! I've rebuild the button to get it in two colors: Fit's into your frame, same size but three parts (upper side is slightly concave) Print with red and white filament and finally superglue it. Print with 100% infill and "tree"-support to get best results. Enjoy. Here's the 3MF-file (more compatible than STL) JettButtonRev1a.3mf @Blue73 Be free to add it to your model on thingverse.

RookFett Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Thanks for this! I printed it in PETG and Resin, but I think I will use the PETG for the gears, the resin is not as strong as I wanted it to be. Now just waiting for the electronics to make it work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is showing up gigantic and can't seem to scale it down enough in Cura. EDIT: Must have been Cura. Turned off auto-scale and it came out fine. First print was kinda a fail though. Can't fit the "sleeve" over the inside button and the top part won't fit over the letters.

blihp Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 @Blue73 this is epic and great work! one really simple question for a noob, in your instructions it says "Rotary Switch 12 Pos, set to 5 pos". Does this mean A) you only use 5 positions in a 12 position rotary, or does it mean you B) you need to change how a 12 position works to only have 5 positions? many thanks!
