Radio Control Panel - Flight Simming

Turning knobs in a virtual cockpit with a mouse can be pretty painful. Thats why I made a DIY Radio Control Panel for Flight simming.

I started designing the case.

I started with the design of the case. I am going to print it in two parts. (That also makes it easier to print). Two parts will also make assembling easier. I will probably have to adjust the exact dimensions tho, because Aliexpress doesn't provide exact measurements.

I wrote a bom

I wrote the bom with all the expenses and items. Now I will design the case. Hopefully the shipping estimate doesn't change and I can order all the parts.

I updated the schematic

I changed some of the components again so that they now match the concept picture. I also added capacitors next to the displays to improve stability.

I created a concept

This concept is for the reviewer to understand my idea better and also have an overview over my project. I also changed a bit of the components. I am probably going to redo the schematic.

I created the schematic

I created the schematic in cirkit. Then I managed to loose my progress by closing the window. But I saved a auto generated documentation of my circuit. (Attached at the bottom.)1903927e-234c-4143-8a4c-03a5e2e9d874
