byteman59 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Hi ALL, Starting my radio build and was wondering if i should build the ARC-210 or stay with the ARC-164 for now? Have not seen any updates for the 210. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crash test pilot Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 (edited) Mine is ready for the better part of a year now - well, the hardware. Its sitting in the shelf and collecting dust. For the moment, stay with the 164. Edit: The -210 will not replace the -164, but one of the -186. Edited April 5, 2022 by crash test pilot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No1sonuk Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I'd be tempted to build the 210, but make it work like the 164. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agrasyuk Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I'm building ARC164 for the UHF, and a fantasy ARC210 for AM, FM and ILS. if we are lucky and that radio get's added to the sim I will reconsider. ARC210 is really pretty device. I'd say definitely build one. I'm building a pair of those, although my attention right now is elsewhere. Anton. My pit build thread .

Ok, i will stay with the 186 for now, and leave the 210 for after my build is complete and i'm bored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinc_Vega Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 (edited) Hi guys, now that it is active with the openbeta, does anybody already has an idea how to read out the Warthog's ARC-210 radio display via DcsBios?

No1sonuk Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 The ARC-210 code is a PITA because it has different formats between screens. I don't remember where the devs have left it. I'll look later. I made something that kind of works. I'll post it when I get home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No1sonuk Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Code and font files attached. Written for Arduino Uno and 3.3 inch TFT shield. NOTE: It is NOT EVEN REMOTELY finished. There are test strings and some things don't work. IIRC, the conclusion is that it may require special code to make it work properly. It's NOT nearly as simple as the CDU.

Heling Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Any news about the working code? I've it working as a viewport in Helios, but I prefer an arduino solution. Regards Mic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
