Hi All,

 

Long story short, I'm part way (no idea how I'd ever measure being truly complete) though a VR build for the F/A-18C Hornet and have encountered a bit of an issue.

 

Whilst flying around the other day testing out my latest add on (Leo Bodnar based button box that mimics the switches etc on the left wall), I realised its a little bit difficult to find the correct switch to toggle.

 

I'm sure things will improve with time (muscle memory) but until that happens, is there anyone out there who has made switch covers for the flaps, landing gear, launch bar etc? Possibly using a 3D printer?

 

Failing that, does anyone know where I can buy the aforementioned covers?

 

I'm pretty close to buying a cheapish 3D printer and making my own but thought I'd put this feeler out there before I do

 

Cheers

Cool...I’m on the same road building a VR pit. Encountering the same issues. I still have to start building the left wall though. Would you mind sharing an image of your build ? We might share some files ;-)

Just signed on to eBay.co.uk searched for toggle switch cover not sure if this is what you are looking.

 

Thanks but I don’t think that was what I was asking for

show us your setup , might be able to help however if u have standard toggle switches u cant just put a cap on it as the shaft rotates within the toggle housing so your landing gear knob would turn sideways.

Maybe you can find some here
