# Building the cockpit
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Things are very work in progress right now and might change.
|
|
|
|
|
Equipement you need:
|
|
|
|
|
* 3D printer (at least access to one)
|
|
|
|
|
* Soldering equipment (you can order the PCBs pre-assembled but that comes at a significant extra cost)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Materials you need:
|
|
|
|
|
* Grey, black and red filament
|
|
|
|
|
* M2 self tapping screws
|
|
|
|
|
* IDC cables:
|
|
|
|
|
* TODO
|
|
|
|
|
* A raspberry pi or similar SBC to drive the MCDU displays (I recommend the rasppi4 or 5 cause you can run both MCDUs off of one pi)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Optionally also have:
|
|
|
|
|
* Wood filler and sand paper to smooth out the 3D printed parts. This then would also require painting the parts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The repo consists of the following sturcture:
|
|
|
|
|
* common-3d: Contains commonly used 3D printed parts such as knobs
|
|
|
|
|
* Pedestal: Contains all files needed for the pedestal
|
|
|
|
|
* \*VU-\*: The individual panels.
|
|
|
|
|
* firmware: Contains the rust code for the micro controller
|
|
|
|
|
* PedestalConnectBox: The PCB, most things of the pedestal hook up to
|
|
|
|
|
* MCDU: Everything for the MCDU
|
|
|
|
|
* flightgear: Files for flightgear flight simulator infterface
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some of the sub-directories contain READMEs with more specific instructions on the parts.
