GregP Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 WOW, that's incredible! Nice job! When will you start taking orders to build more? :) What was the total cost to build that, by the way?
BB. Posted October 28, 2012 Author Posted October 28, 2012 It cost me about 30000yen (380 US dollar), thank you for the positive response :) Not receiving orders currently but if somebody wants it, I may be able to ship some CDUs (PSP not included, it took me about 2-3 weeks to make 1 CDU) konnichiwa
JG14_Smil Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 Great work! Your Youtub link stays over the top of your photos, making it hard to view them.
Hansolo Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 whooh... really nice work. Looking awesome. Congratulation on the nice panel 132nd Virtual Wing homepage & 132nd Virtual Wing YouTube channel My DCS-BIOS sketches & Cockpit Album
Dropship Pilot Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 Nice work! :thumbup: I really like the rocker switches and buttons. How did you do these? The use of the PSP is a cool idea. However, if you are in need of a monitor that fits, have a look here: http://www.ebay.de/itm/3-5inch-TFT-LCD-640x480-PVI-PD035VX2-VGA-AV-board-/300784759037?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item46082b30fd I use this display as a replacement for the original CDU display. The outer dimensions fit nicely inside the cutout of the original front plate and the display area is only 1mm narrower than the original display area. Additionally this one has a resolution of 640x480 while most of the other 3.5" displays have much lower native resolutions. Cheers, Stefan
BB. Posted October 30, 2012 Author Posted October 30, 2012 I appreciate the positive comments! Did some paint work after CNCing engineer-plastic(polyacetal : POM) to create the locker switch. Thank you for the input on the monitor, had to subsitute PSP for it. :) konnichiwa
Hansolo Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Would you be willing to sell a set of buttons and rockers ? I think I am almost covered with the other hardware parts :) 132nd Virtual Wing homepage & 132nd Virtual Wing YouTube channel My DCS-BIOS sketches & Cockpit Album
Panthro Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 (edited) Nice work! How did you convince the PSP to play nicely with DCS? Edited October 31, 2012 by Panthro grammar [sIGPIC]http://forums.eagle.ru/signaturepics/sigpic86362_2.gif[/sIGPIC]
BB. Posted November 6, 2012 Author Posted November 6, 2012 @HMA What size of tactile switch are you using? Currently I'm struggling with an issue that the paint is being peeled off. @Panthro Right now using custom PSP firmware with 3rd party software called PSPDisp which allows me to use it as second monitor. konnichiwa
