deathcobra Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 (edited) So I finished today my poor man's "cockpit". It is pretty much a 1:1 copy of CupPilot's first setup so many thanks to him and his detailed pictures and templates. He inspired me to build something at all and was and is a big help setting it up. I used the same displays and keypad as he did, so there is not much to say. You can see his setup here. Labeled keypad: Panel cut out with the keypad and MFCD frames. Unfortunatly I have only an electric fret saw and I didn't bother to file the cut outs properly, so there are small gaps, you see it better with the paint on. back view: another detail view: buttons of the display reattached: you can see the gap below the frame... semi-finished: aaand done. now you can clearly see the gaps and I messed up the paint below the UFC, but... I found out I have a friend with a CNC and that spot will maybe soon be covered by a AHCP. Cheers, DC Edited September 25, 2011 by deathcobra
