sagil Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Hi all, Want to update about work in progress on the HCU stick. Finished the design and printed the prototype. Assembled it with 2 miicroswitch for the two stage trigger and with encoder for the radar antenna. Two red buttons are missing but I've order them from ebay. Painted the stick with 2 colours to make it look like an old stick. Here are some photos: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AusMumbles Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Sagil, These are looking really good. What joystick gear are you planning on putting in it to make it work? I'll order this and the side stick soon. Mumbles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
