Canopy switch

[Ala12Rv-Tundra]

hi there,

Looking to add a open/close canopy switch. Generic for all my modules.

My guess, it should be a 3-pos switch, with both momentary actions.

(ON)-OFF-(ON).

 

Is that correct?

I will use arduino close for wiring and stuff.

Yes on the switch.

 

You might need a different interface so you can define it for all the modules.

 

Something like a Leo Bodnar board shows up in DCS as a "joystick", so you can assign the buttons as you wish.

It really depends on the aircraft and how accurate you want to be the A-10C uses an on-off ( on) Switch

yeah but out of simpleness, I would use the same switch for all modules.

F-16 is also on-off-(on). Which makes sense. You want to carefully close the canopy (not catch something) but while opening you can just send it up to the limit switch...

Simple yes correct no you asked about correct. but you can do what ever works for you

thanks, that line of thinking might be right

in all honesty I don´t remember how every module I own works, but both momentary actions should work with helicopters too, thanks.
