32 switches, 8 analogue axis and hat switch. I use 4 of these boards through Helios and they are excellent however quite limited especially if you're using lots of rotary encoders (radios, ILS and TACAN in my case). Plug and play too. If you're going to be building an entire cockpit you may be better with Brydling's board although you can't use rotary encoders with this IIRC

you meant this? http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=80201, if my readings are correct you can connect 256 switches to it and one costs 65.86 €?

That's not Bodnar's controller but something different.

I think Wannabegnome was talking to me, yes that's what I was talking about, supposed to be a good board with lots of switches. Not sure if it's as easy as the Bodnar board to set up though. And the price you mentioned is a little low I think. I got quoted about £120 but hat was fully fitted, test and with all required cables etc and posted. Maybe the DIY model is a lot less though

IMHO the B256A13 card from Brydling is not as straight forward to use af the BU0836X.

When using the B256A13 you need a connection system of some sort because the connections to the card is done by 40pin connectors and flat ribbon cable. Further you need a diode for almost all inputs and as Mojo mentioned it can't handle encoders.

The BU0836X is very easy to set up as it has push type connectors. The software needed for handling encoders is also easy

 

Having said so I am using both type of card and they are both great. The Brydling is taking the bulk of it due to the amount of inputs it can handle. I bought the B256A13 as DIY. I think the soldering took about an hour with ease.

 

Cheers
