robump Posted June 1, 2013 Posted June 1, 2013 Looks really good, are these built using dimebug's plans?
mulishaknight Posted June 1, 2013 Author Posted June 1, 2013 (edited) Too a point yes. The are great Plans but the are hard to follow. Next step will be to cover everything in sheet metal and cut gauge panels for the front. from there I will paint. Then cougar mdf's and other monitors running helios gauges. I think I want to reverse engineer LOLZ profile. From there I plan to do the switches. on gpwiz boards. Want to go with 2 ipads for radio panels and cdu. Edited June 2, 2013 by mulishaknight

mulishaknight Posted June 15, 2013 Author Posted June 15, 2013 Working on some panels today So here we are...
WannaBeGnome Posted June 15, 2013 Posted June 15, 2013 What monitor are u using for gauges ? One or multiple?
mulishaknight Posted June 15, 2013 Author Posted June 15, 2013 i will probably use a 32 inch samsung smart tv

mulishaknight Posted June 18, 2013 Author Posted June 18, 2013 (edited) All Done the Front Panels Ready for Decals and Glass So i am moving along pretty good these are all hand cut panels. Overall i think its not bad. I have no carpenter or fabrication expierence so i am pleased with how it is turning out. follow the build and see more pics here https://www.facebook.com/groups/a10cockpit/ Edited June 19, 2013 by mulishaknight
mulishaknight Posted June 19, 2013 Author Posted June 19, 2013 Just a quick Update I used up the last of my sheet metal on hand and finished up the front and ran some test in helios. I am definatley gonna need that samsung 32 inch with some narrow borders to get the fuel gauges set properly. I think i want to go with a ipad mini for the cdu. I plan to get a new throttle next month. probably the x52 with some rudder pedals. then probably cougar mfd's. the my boards and switches. getting nervous about the switches i have no electyrical expierence...so yeah. follow my build and other stuff here https://www.facebook.com/groups/a10cockpit/
mulishaknight Posted July 15, 2013 Author Posted July 15, 2013 So i have not done too much latley but i did wire some switches up and i am having the switch off on off problem. throw it its on then throw it down then back on again to turn it off in game. hmmm think i seen something about this before but cant find the thread.

Anyway here is a update.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxH5OuJyywk Try here mulishaknight. Helped me sort my landing gear up/down switch problem out. Switch down (ON) - gear down, switch up (OFF)- gear up. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=89226&highlight=TOGGLE+SWITCH+TUTORIAL Regards, Milli
mulishaknight Posted July 15, 2013 Author Posted July 15, 2013 k i must be missing something here. I read the instructions but when i tried it the switch did not throw at all in game can someone show me how to code this object so its a simple on/off function with a switch {combos = {{key = "JOY_BTN12"}, }, down = iCommandBatteryPower, name = "Battery power", category = "Electrical power control panel"}, I understand this above line is default.

Try this: {combos = {{key = "JOY_BTN12"}, }, down = iCommandBatteryPower, up = iCommandBatteryPower, name = "Battery power", category = "Electrical power control panel"}, Make sure your switch is indeed button 12. Here is how I got a simple on/off switch to operate the landing gear on my A-10C. I altered my Button Box Interface.lua to this: {combos = {{key = "JOY_BTN16"}, }, down = iCommandPlaneGear, up = iCommandPlaneGear, name = "Landing Gear Up/Down", category = "Landing gear panel"}, Hope it works for you. Regards, Milli
mulishaknight Posted July 16, 2013 Author Posted July 16, 2013 Thank you i managed to get it working properly. :) Awesome !
mulishaknight Posted July 21, 2013 Author Posted July 21, 2013 Radio Stack Can anyone recommend a radio stack that I could purchase for my pit that would work good for DCS.
mulishaknight Posted July 23, 2013 Author Posted July 23, 2013 Just finnished up my Android CDU just finnished up my idisplay,helios,ecm Android Export Mod for the CDU
mulishaknight Posted August 20, 2013 Author Posted August 20, 2013 (edited) Well i have been busy but got some stuff done... Yeah been busy working 2 jobs hard to find time for the pit. Got a new Sony Bravia 32 inch t.v. for displays made a cheap seat until my other one arrives and moved my computer station to the pit. Also made a mount for the joystick. I have also finnished some panels just need to be mounted. I think i am ready to get my gpwiz boards and the switches. I hope everything lines up in the panels. Complete madness. Edited August 20, 2013 by mulishaknight
mulishaknight Posted August 25, 2013 Author Posted August 25, 2013 New Wall Mount Meh Yeah picked up a wall mount for 30 bucks...new decals.
Mr_Burns Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Nice work, where did you get the decals? How do you find the position, my first attempt had the screen too high was pretty uncomfortable, the secon i positioned it so the cockpit was lower.
