DIY MFD with 28 buttons for VR


BallistaMilsim

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I would like to share a MFD I built to fly in VR. The buttons have small ridges (homing bars) that help to locate them by touch. 

https://github.com/ballista-milsim/MFD.F16

This is a work in progress of F16 similar MFD suitable for VR.
Printed with Anycubic Cobra.
Uses 1x Arduino Pro Micro (atmega32u4) with a micro USB wire, 28x standard 6mm momentum push buttons.
Standard coated wire and paper clips for wiring.
10x mini screws to hold the box and 2x 8mm bolts for the table mount.

 

On the screenshot below is WIP version with Arduino reset button in the center.

I am also working on a 3D-printed ICP for my F-16 cockpit. I have found several versions, and I selected one that will use a Teensy 4.0 board, but no one has a wiring diagram. The best I found was the code file for programming the Teensy. Can you show us how you wired yours up?
