Deadman Posted September 30, 2014 Author Posted September 30, 2014 There is no better way to end a 10 hour day than with a cold beer and a delivery this must have come in the mail today. I am one happy guy. I will just clean it a bit through in some newer screws and maybe a set of black Dzus. It is not the NVIS one I wanted but it was not $500.00 either. https://forum.dcs.world/topic/133818-deadmans-cockpit-base-plans/#comment-133824 CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.

agrasyuk Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 DM, do you have a source for dzus mounting rails? Thinking to get a small set for reference and make sure things fit. Anton. My pit build thread . Simple and cheap UFC project
Deadman Posted September 30, 2014 Author Posted September 30, 2014 (edited) Yes depending on your built and type of Dzus rail your looking for? I need to check but I think I have some thing like 20 feet of T style rail.

agrasyuk Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 I'd prefer the 90deg angled one (one row) - thinking to build something like benchtop testing stand. so 2 pieces of foot/foot and a half would be ideal (or one longer to cut in half). T- style is for side by side mounting I take it? Anton. My pit build thread . Simple and cheap UFC project
Deadman Posted October 1, 2014 Author Posted October 1, 2014 T style can be for side by side mounting as in the F-16 console but not in this case. Dzus rail you can just Google and look for the right angle or some time listed as 90 deg manufactures are DFCI http://www.dfcis.com/ the PA 3500 line SouthCo http://www.southco.com/en-us/d5 Most Aircraft supply companies have some https://forum.dcs.world/topic/133818-deadmans-cockpit-base-plans/#comment-133824 CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.

Deadman Posted October 4, 2014 Author Posted October 4, 2014 Dzus tool Instalation Hi guys i was just asked about removal and installation of Dzus 1/4 turn connectors (3506-SC stud) here is a tutorial I made for anther site. I have purchased two sets of DZUS tools in the past.Both off of eBay The ones i use most are the punch witch is a 3/32 inch or 2.27 mm to remove the DZUS. The holding block ,and the set tool I modified to use one thicker panels by grinding the shoulder higher on the tool. To remove a DZUS fastener 3506-SC stud you would use the cup to hold the plate and fastener then tap the DZUS out of the plate with the punch and a hammer If you use old DZUS connectors for a replacement you may have a hard time seating it in to the new panel if the neck is slightly still crimped but I have found if you use pressure and twist most will go in to the new plate. here is a picture of one with some crimp left in it. These are the tools to seat a new DZUS Fastener in to a panel the block you would use the other side with a pressure bump in it and the modified set tool First set the new DZUS in to the new panel by hand. If the panel is a home made one you will need to have a 100 degree counter sink used on the back. So the DZUS will crimp Then position it and the panel over the block you will see it does not sit flat do to the pressure bump hitting the flat slot head in the connector once you press down on the connector and panel it will stay in position Now place the set tool on the inside of the DZUS connector hold every thing tight and hit the tool with a hammer and set the crimp. IF you have a thick panel such as an EWMU you will need to grind off some of the set tool to make room for it to work with out smashing part of the panel. and last but not least a drawing of tool use from one of the sets the other tool set the cup of the DZUS with out the slot screw and spring in place then crimp in the spring and slot screw after with both sets of tool. You can remove or replace any DZUS connector with out breaking it or the support plate or the light plate. https://forum.dcs.world/topic/133818-deadmans-cockpit-base-plans/#comment-133824 CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.

agrasyuk Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Hey DM, Was thinking you probably have some knowledge about the subject of these pictures : https://m.flickr.com/#/photos/klafaille/sets/72157629060792165/ Was wondering about SQL switch, is it really just a 2 position rotary? So many pins on it... Or is it a potentiometer with switch at the end of the range (for the off position). Anton. My pit build thread . Simple and cheap UFC project

agrasyuk Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) thanks a lot man!. indeed looks like it is just a switch with two positions. strange. the fact that the freq dial rotaries have two kinds in one row is also puzzling. EDIT aha, so those are absolute position encoders and not continuous rotation . i guess makes sense. Edited November 19, 2014 by agrasyuk Anton. My pit build thread . Simple and cheap UFC project
