Hey Guys! Page update ... here's a link to the latest creations (the Version 2 builds) of this control panel: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=...ad.php?t=165291 A while back i built a control panel for the SU-25T ( SU-25T USB control panel ) At the bottom of that post, I had a google sketchup drawing of the next panel I wanted to build. My idea was to build a control panel that could be used for all of the Flaming Cliff 3 aircraft. Well, here it is! It's an empty shell right now, all that it needs now is the wiring. I'll get to that soon, but I've been delayed a bit because of ... well ... life (story of all of us I guess). I can't complain though. I took a new job, and am learning to fly this https://fsbrasil.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/e175_delta_n202jq-c.jpg (cockpit -> http://www.embraercommercialaviation.com/AircraftGallery/175-13.jpg ) One hell of an amazing airplane! Anyway, This control panel will control ALL of the A/P, CM, Trims, Sensors, Systems, Kneeboard, Weapons, Modes, and Comm channels (F1-F12, plus a couple quick reference comm keys) As said before, it will work with each of the FC3 aircraft, as well as the SU-25T Here's a picture of it without the throttle quadrant or joystick. As you can see the surface area is quite large, and it fits the X-55 HOTAS just fine. But it's also sized so that the Warthog HOTAS will also fit just fine in the provided space. And lastly, here's a size comparison of the FC 3 panel (obviously under construction at this point) vs the SU-25T panel. Hope you guys enjoyed the pictures. I'm looking forward to getting this thing completed and testing it out. It'll be a bit though as I'm still in ground school until the beginning of March :/ Thanks guys! - Apache600

WharfRat, Yep, that's the goal. The control panel i built for LeOne was a custom built one just for him ... i ended up building a second just for me though (and a 3rd and 4th for future sales too) We discussed the things that he wanted the panel to do, and then I sent some drafts of what i thought it would look like. We agreed upon it, and away I went building it. So I can do custom builds (within reason), or builds that are already tested (like this one, or the SU-25T panel) or modified versions of completed panels. If you're interested, lemme know!
Jenrick, yeah gauges require .LUA stuff, and to keep things simple I'm steering away from those for now. They would need either monitors to display the stuff, or actual physical dials which is WAAAAAAY beyond my scope at the moment.
