MM,

I think you have some good options to explore before looking to reinvent the wheel with a new switch...

1. Contact Horst for the switches he used to make his KG13s
2. Contact the guys selling the KG13 sim control stick
Tarmac Aces site, then go to KG13 stick
3. See what this other guy used that just posted his stick
4. Pull apart an old TM F16 stick and use its guts

If these dont pan out, ill try to help you find a micro momentary switch, like:
6mm x 6mm momentary switch
or
tactile switches

Then you can hide the Leo PCB inside the KG13 electrical box.

Thanks Chaps for the help, now at least I have an idea what should I have
I planned to buy some simple switches, and to ask the guys at my workplace to machine some sockets and caps from black plastic. But of course If they are already available, i am not dumb to work in vane.

Hans,

I sent a mail to you regarding the buttons. It is a pitty that you deleted the pictures of your steurknüppel. It looks amazing!!

Not really. This thread is about your work.
Email received.

MMaister,

For micro switch use the same used by CH Products (know for last longer), the OMRON tactile micro switch:

With these planed machined caps, fit perfectly.

Hi Sokol,

thanks for the tip!

Honestly I would like something similar to the original. Those had a few mmm of travel, but these micro switches have basicly none.:(

Hi guys, I really liked the work VO101MMaister. I also want to make yourself KG13A. I live in Russia. And manufacture control device for the simulator Il2 Shturmovik
Therefore, the desired size from the first page. AV8R, I beg you to give the dimensions A, B, C, D, F, H, G, I, J, L, M, O, N, R, S, P.
I do not speak English. Translate the text in the translator http://translate.google.ru/

KG13A plan to put here for such a mechanism http://avia-sim.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?t=577

Hi Baur,

you show some great skills on that russian forum. Wish I could speak russian.
Could you briefly explain the advantages of your mechanism? It is very interesting.

I will be very hard to do this without the knowledge of the English language. Unfortunately, I have not found such a number of different control devices, what we do in Russia. On your forums, just like a nice appearance. In Russia, the first simulation of flight control.
But I'll try to explain:
I understand that the question applies here to this option mechanics - http://avia-sim.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?t=577&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=75

If this interests you, then give the photos. The basic idea is that the mechanism itself becomes the center. It can be done without a sense of center. And with a sense of passage of the center, changing the plates zagruzhateley. Therefore, feeling dependent on the geometry of their edges.

Even replacing the springs, you can pick up the force on the control stick:)
