n00dle Posted October 17, 2022 Posted October 17, 2022 Hello all For the sake of keeping anyone interested up to date on my terribly slow progress I thought I'd share some pictures of what I have managed so far. I'll try to make this a bit more interesting over the coming eons, but for now here's a small photo dump. If you want to know anything just shout and I'll do my best to keep this going. Also anyone else blindly diving into a similar pool of dispair check out the OpenHarrier group on facebook, me and a few others post there too! Spoiler UFC done. Well .. this was done a while back and all works, but I have recently got my hands on some 14segment digits so I'm in two minds about re-doing the displays. It would be an absolute pain but would look better .. so we shall see Spoiler MFD's mounted and all working ingame, needs a spot of paint but that can come later Spoiler MFD (without the POT added) Spoiler ODU design finalised today so added it because whynot! Spoiler Everything that i've got built and working so far (minus ODU which is in progress) 8
pavidovich Posted October 21, 2022 Posted October 21, 2022 Congrats with your project, it is really impressive. How did you set the text on the buttons?
n00dle Posted November 5, 2022 Author Posted November 5, 2022 These ones aren't final as i can't backlight them, but i 3d print them white, spray them grey and then use the laser to etch the lettering on. Same way i etch the panel itself. Comes out really well and can be backlit too if made from something translucent

n00dle Posted December 8, 2022 Author Posted December 8, 2022 ODU finished and working in game. Had to use 14seg displays and make my own 5 digit units as i couldnt find anything similar to the dot matrix style that's actually used .. but it matches my UFC and works so I'm happy. Spoiler
Thanatos31 Posted December 9, 2022 Posted December 9, 2022 Looks really nice - I feel like my odu might be a bit too small, looking at yours Come fly with us : https://discord.gg/tawdcs TAW CJTF 13 - EU TZ MilSim Squadron Ryzen 5 5600X | 32GB DDR4 3733| ASUS Radeon RX 6700 XT | ASrock B550 Phantom Gaming 4 | HP Reverb G2 | Thrustmaster Warthog Throttle , F16 & F18 grips , TFRP Rudders | Win 10

n00dle Posted December 22, 2022 Author Posted December 22, 2022 Mounted and working in game, still needs a lot of work mind.. Spoiler 1
n00dle Posted January 7, 2023 Author Posted January 7, 2023 Right console design mostly complete. Not sure about the structure of it but the panel design is done and bar any spelling mistakes should be ready to engrave too. Spoiler
