Thank you!

Guitar work on this one is quite remarkable..

Little update on MFD panels. I'm finally done with painting 3d printed stuff! Three loose wires at the bottom are for future brightness control knob. Also I decided to cover all enclosure from the inside with aluminum foil providing some shielding - now it looks more like real space...

Thank you, Notebook! Yeah, I think this connector alone took me almost a hour to solder, including cutting pvc tube for isolation. Great thing is, that diameter of the connector shell opening is just enough for 3 ethernet and 5 unshielded usb cables - very nice fit there. A stock wire retainer...

MFDs Finally the big patch cable is done! 3 LANs and 2 USBs to 1 DB-37 connector. This harness provides all I/O interface for all 3 MFD screens.

MFD Stuff hey y'all! Little update on the project. Finally, after 150 days, next package of green square switches arrived..:facepalm::lol: So wiring of the second primary MFD panel is done. Also I've got rid of the original monitor front switching board (cause quality of it is just a c...p -...

I knew it's a synth!:lol: Man, this's thing of beauty is the joy forever! Love it! Wanna DIY my own some day.. or, for now, just grab my digital one and play some Pink Floyd cosmos:thumbup: :hailprobe::lol: PS. Very nice project! With full documentation! Thank you for sharing!

Thanks, Notebook! Nice thing is it took me just an hour and an half to complete whole harness. After several failed attempts :lol: Very cheap and reliable method of lacing. An good looking too!! Nice board! Where is it from?? Looks like some analog synth or whatnot?? PS. Here's some info -...

MFD Panels Hey guys! I've manege to dig compact 3 pin power connector. It's an obscure one - C301 - Here're some shots (DB9 and ruler are for reference): Haven't find any information about them, so after 30 minutes with caliper I've got em in Inventor: And designed mounting bracket...

Yep, I like cannons.. :lol: But this time I should look for something more easy to find . Anyway, thanks for the advice! PS. After all, there's always good ol 2 prong "infinity" plug - quite compact, yet mains rated ---------- Post added at 06:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 AM...

Seems it is. Googling for a XRL-LNE type connector gives me UK sites only. Mouser search gave me nothing either. Judging by a wiki article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XLR_connector), it's an obsolete type as well:

Hmm, I used them for connecting mics and speakers - quite neat. But I presume, an average XLR plug is not designed for mains either, need a special one, like this: Seems using usual 240VAC power sockets will be much cheaper and more robust, but not as sexy as XLRs.:)

Thanks, Notebook! :cheers: Yep I know that. I was planning on removing 6 pins and leave 3 pins (most left/most right and central ones) to maintain safety clearances (100 thou min). But I'm still concern about voltage creepage between a pin and connector shell. So I've been designing ac supply...

MFD Panels Hey guys! Little update on MFD panels. After 15 hours of soldering wires of the one MFD panel is done, including display power off button and status LEDs. Green PCB on the back is the actual display's front panel board - I've just hardwired [to self destruct :lol:] needed...

Yep, but too bad it [Fly-by-wire] doesn't allow you to implement a split throttle control..

MFD Panels Good day! A Little update on MFD panels. Finally I've painted them - 3 layers of filler, 2 layers of dark grey paint (RAL 7012) and 1 layer of clear coat, but there's always a "but".. :-) Meh, this clear coat gave me strange result - almost all surfaces got some nasty wrinkles and...

Sounds nice! Not exactly. That's done by VNC. Orbiter sends MFD information via VNCMFD addon ( https://www.orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?t=28474 ), Raspberry Pi just connects to 2 VNC ports (via VNC viewer) showing MFDs. Simple as that. It can be any device - phone, tablet, laptop - as...

Primary MFD Hmm, I've been working with Orbiter 2016 right now, and it works, for now :) Initial display test is passed :cheers:(see attachment below).

Actually MFDs and buttons are piece of cake to implement! (Thanks to Kamaz addons!! ) Here's a pic of 2 MFDs (on 10 tablets) fully controlled by 26 buttons and arduino leonardo on the breadboard. Works fine & dandy. https://www.orbiter-forum.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=17032&d=1586456514...
