Update

 

Hi!

 

I am in the process to rebuild my panels :lol:

Now I use acrylic for the panels.

2*4 mm, Top layer is for hiding nuts and bottom layer is for fasten switches.

I make them more look a like to originals.

Takes a while to do, but its wort it.

it sure does take time :), but you have nice foundation to work with and those some good looking panels.

 

 

what did you use to punch through paper (printed and laminated, right?)?

any idea about freq displays on those radios ?

curious to see your wiring work, can you show the backside?

 

thanks and keep it coming

Yes, I do use laminated paper.

I use a hole puncher with different size to punch out the holes.

I bought it in Sweden.

No idea about freq displays on radios....

I use momentary push buttons to change frequency in one direction!!

Dont have any support for decoders yet!

 

I post 2 pics of my old wooden radiopanels so you can see how it was done.

 

Now they ar much nicer :D

CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.

Hi Deadman!

 

For my sake I don't need any info on the radio displays.

I don't think I can build them... :mad:

But it would be nice if you post a good solution for it. :joystick:

Strix, nice work. asking since i'm fighting with wiring as well at the moment.

Wiring is a mess...

I never get it nice, looks like a child done it :mad:

Always cables going over the whole place. Have no clue witch is witch :doh:

 

As you see I use 40 pin flat-cable now, due to my interface.

Leg problems!

 

Due to the fact that I use my computer to other games I have to solve a big problem!

My left leg is grinding on the AHCP when playing other games.

I sorted it out by making the AHCP and Landing and Flap panel slide to the left when I don't use it :smartass:

So now I don't get a bad knee anymore!

Joystick upgrade

 

Did a change to my joystick.

Its a bit to long, circle is to wide for me.

Gone shorten it by 3-4 cm.

 

Used gardena and some plumbing tubes.

And I use a birds food spiral so it go back to center!

Gone put a cars drive-shaft rubber outside the spiral, makes it stiffer.

Hey Stix,

 

i saw your Warthog extension, made of PVC and the Gardena garden thingies:

 

http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=1434295

 

I just ordered a Warthog and want to go for a center stick setup too.

 

Where did you get the curved PVC from?

 

I really like what this guy did:

 

Instead of PVC he uses some kind of square bar and fixed it with metal plates. I just wonder how he attached the bar to the thread.

 

Thanks for your answer!

 

Regards,

 

Rocco

 

EDIT: tried to PM him with this message, but didnt work. :)
