Title: Longer than expected
Post by: Gary Anderson on Aug 10, 2024 22:51
Aloha Chris, and Chris,

  So sorry for the absence, had back and shoulder surgery, but I rebuilt my PC for MSFS, so running nice. Hope to be pegging hours now I can sit for a bit. With all the medical, they disabled me from the job I had on the mountain, so more time to fly.

Thanks for your patience and keeping me on the Roster ;D ,

Starts of my home pit, EFIS,FCU, MCDU, Brake Panel all working with Fenix, working on the Ecam panel now. Alot of 3d parts for buttons, push pull switches, etc. Good Fun.

Looks really good!
Which autopilot unit and other controls are you using there?

Eh Chris,

  Panels are Hispapanels, but I am changing them out to Opencockpits, prefer the color and feel. The FCU and Efis LCD display are from KAV simulations, I also bought their Radio and ATC LCD's. All the bicolor switching and push pull switching are 3d printed, as some of the knobs, just printed my new Baro knob today. Most of the Korry's come from Open cockpits. The MCDU is a Hispapanel setup with 5" monitor, had to populate the PC board and I wired it to two Mega's. Luckily I was an electronic tech for years, it helps with all the wiring. Its all driven from Mobiflight(freeware), through Mega256's. So far been alot of fun and interfaces well with all the Fenix aircraft.

Post more as I narrow out my layout and add more.

Mahalo,
