How did you get the engraving on the black removable vinyl?

Hi mate sorry for comenting on an old video, but I wanted to ask this. When you use the velcro/command strips to attach the wood to the chair, does it dampen the vibrations at all? I thought maybe it would since its like a little cushion. I am looking at the similar setup and would love to know your experience!

Hi would you be able to make one of this for me?

I am doing the same kind of project but will go with 2 or 3 ply black on white abs and a small CNC machine to etch down to white (about 1 m). Then I get a panel and the graphics in one piece with no fiddling with individual vinyl letters. That’s’ the theory, I’ll let you know.

Awesome :)

You are creating nice and clean panels. Definitely better looking then my DIY panels. However, I'd still recommend to look into designing your own PCBs and solder switches, LEDS and Arduino onto the PCB, avoiding a lot of cables, and getting a much thinner box. I mean, one large custom PCB, connecting everything, instead of many small PCBs, that need cables to connect to each other.

Excellent job. I am planning to do a simple panel with toggle switches for lights system. Wish me good luck lol

Hello! I'm 15, and for a school project, wanna make something like this. Could I get in touch with you for more guidance because this video is kinda too fast for me?

so cool, i would love to use a lot of switches panels to fly p51 mustang in dcs.

Fixed! (I hope- haven't tested exhaustively). Needed to copy the events.txt file from within FSUIPC7 to Community -> mobiflight-event-module->modules. AWESOME! Can finally use my encoders to control those dang knobs. Thanks for this guide Jno!

Hey Jno! Thanks for this great guide. Unfortunately i'm having trouble getting it to work with FSUIPC7.4.12 and Mobiflight 10.1 on the latest MSFS. Any help appreciated! So: I just want to control the GPS430, 530, 1000, and 3000 knobs with custom freejoy based controls I have built (basically i made my own Octavi knockoff). FSUIPC7 loads, sees the sim, I see the MobiEvents listed, but when I assign one to a button, it doesn't turn the knob in the sim. I've tried both just copying the mobievents module to the commuynity folder, and also fully installing mobiflight connect and running it alongside the sim. I can activate Hvars and see settings change, but mobiflight evens dont turn knobs. Compared to your guide, unfortunatly i installed mobiflight fully the first time rather than just dragging the events module from the github archive into the community folder. I tried uninstalling mobiflight and just dragging, but no love. I'm working with: Flight Simulator 1.37.18.0 FSUIPC7.4.12 Mobiflight 10.1 There is nothing in my community folder except fsuipc and mobiflight. I could try an older version of mobiflight from the github archive? Any help appreciated!! Thanks! Detailed install insturctions: download install latest mobiflight connector 10.1 www.mobiflight.com/en/download.html OOPS - maybe could have download the ZIP archive from git hub and ONLY copied the mobiflight-events thing into the COMMUNITY FOLDER! duh. Will try uninstall and that method if this doenst work. download install FSUIPC. will be 7.4.12. he shows 7.2.10 fsuipc.simflight.com/beta/Install_FSUIPC7.zip Installed using installer and registered and paid. thank you. sign up for site and get the mobiflight event files: forum.simflight.com/topic/91606-using-fsuipc7-with-mobiflight-wasm-module/?_fromLogin=1 forum.simflight.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=112097 forum.simflight.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=112098 got them. Find the FSUIPC folder and copy the event files into them. Ok yeah it installed at C:\ like in this video. Copied. launched FS from .bat file. put c172 on runway, running. can see the mobiflight evens. FSUIPC sees my encoder buttons. Open FSUIPC from taskbar, choose assing, move button, click select for fs control, choose mobifligght g530 right large button decrease, click ok, turn button, nothing happens. ​

Hey Jno this is awesome. I'm having trouble getting it work however - do you know if it still works with FS Flight Simulator 1.37.18.0, FSUIPC7.4.12, Mobiflight 10.1 which are the latest as of 5/29/2024? I followed you instructions and i can see the mobiflight events in FSUIPC and my button presses appear in FSUIPC but when i assign them no knobs move on the 530 or 430 in the C172. Any help appreciated!

Good walk through and tips!

how do u programm all the switches? is the Teensy controller acting as a game controller within windows, by which you can directly assig all the switches to their functions inside the flight simulator? (so no additonal software needed for programming?)

Hi, just wanted to say thanks. I used your instructions and layout for the tracker. But instead soldering LEDs, i bought a Christmas LED chain for 2 bucks in a $/€ Store and cut it to my needs. Works like a charm and can ,use 2 AA rechargeable batteries too. Using it with Elite Dangerous. Best advise was the exposure setting. Cheers from Berlin Germany

does it not require some special software?

I'd love to see more detail on how to get things working with the microcomputer

how did you get FS to recognize the buttons please

Крутая идея 👍

Отличная работа, аккуратно и с вкусом

Cant we just buy it of you?

bro aged 20 years in the first 15 seconds wth

Nice clear layout with good functionality. A very good design, thank you for sharing with everyone, you're a very kind gentleman.

Wonderfull job, I love it! Congratulations!!!😁

the wood is too large, vibrations wil dissipate on it, also mounting with double sided tape is an awful idea, not only you get cushioning in between, it will get loose with time. A more secure way to mount them ios with an L bracket or angle between the seat and wheel mount, ideally a metal sheet for mounting the shaker, but a wood piece could work too. I think its better a single bigger shakers for chair and a small one like that for pedals, having more shakers is so you can separate the effects so they dont saturate with so many things. Now if you are going to use just audio for them, still not sure using 2 is better than a single bigger one.

hello, well done, could you tell me which font do you have for write on your vinyl and keep inside letter "A" or "R" or "D"

That was great!

brilliant

EXCELLENT, nice transducers, those caps tend to rattle, so i just remove them.

Nah..shit video

Uuuggghh..WHY do they let their shitty kids do voice overs 😑

How did you remove the screw caps?

how do you get the apps in the virtual input?

I wonder if it will work with DCS... 🙃

Can you please help me elaborate on the dual rocker switches? I have those switches and no matter what I try, I neither get the built in light nor the signal to Arduino. Appreciate any help / guidance you can provide.

Hello great project I am looking to build my own and have ordered parts I was looking at your diagram and I cannot work out what switches are what, I was wondering if yo could put the switch types in the diagram? also would an Arduino micro work instead of Teensy? thanks in advance.

the main issue with this is once you get it dialed in and are only using raw sound is that the game volume effects the shaker. so turning the game down will effect the shaker, and like wise if something crazy happens, changing views or even another plane taxing upto you will have to re adjust the shaker. buttkicker offers free software for msfs that will use telemetry or actual game data to give exact sound. its on their website. there is also andre's sim shaker.

Not bad but you missed an entire section on how to set up the micro computer. What pins do what and how to even run the thing in windows. Panels and switches are self-explanatory but I have no clue how you went from there to in game inputs.

How much did that cost you?

Good work 👍😀👍😀

Really enjoyed the video. great work. Leo Bodnar boards?

I can't find it addressed anywhere on the internet, but do you think that using a HTC VIVE base station would work as an IR receiver?

Cost?

A quick question, my Leds are barely glowing, do you have any thoughts on why this is the case, they do work when the hole room is pitch dark, andbexposure set to -6 but then it will sometimes register whites on my shirt, and glares from other points. Will point out that I'm using a 10ohm resistor instead of 28ohm and also wired in series. Amazing video BTW :)

I need some guidance on setting up voicemeeter. I'm using FSRealistic as well. I have a splitter coming out of the speaker port on my computer with one cable going to my speakers and the other to my Nobsound amp. I feel the bass shaker when your video starts up but nothing within MSFS.

How do I get FSRealistic into Potato? For those who use VR, what are the settings to do?

Btw leaded solder does sound scary, and you definitely don't want to breathe it in or ingest it (which you already shouldn't be ingesting it and should be soldering in a well ventilated area), but other than that it's not really dangerous. And it typically is of a much higher quality, making better joints. Obviously you don't have to and maybe you would rather not risk it, especially if you don't have access to the level of ventilation you would like, but a lot of people think leaded solder is a lot more dangerous than it actually is. Look into it more if you are hesitant; I don't like to blindly trust safety info from the internet without looking into it further either so no offense would be taken lol. But yeah this looks like an awesome project! I've been wanting to do something similar for a while now but have been scared I won't be able to finish the project... Mostly because I want to 3d print my button box and my 3d printer is a bit temperamental when it comes to needing any amount of precision lol... But now I'm realizing I can just make it out of wood, which will also make it look a lot nicer too!

Hello Jon, I Wanna ask a question for flight simming projects like this. How do you pair led lights along with switches and not burn the usb board? and how does a breadboard help and what does it do

Incredible work, I would really enjoy a project like that.

I was already using OpenTrack in conjunction with AI Track face tracking. But that is often glitchy and freaks out when it detects an other face. This is very useful and I will definitely be building it. Cheers.
