My new PIC767 based FSBUS cockpit project ready!

Without further ado... here's what I fly with.Notice the self-made MCP on top of the middle screen as well :).Everything in the MCP and the new panel (in the right side) is functional!http://www.ee.oulu.fi/~partanen/k4.jpghttp://www.ee.oulu.fi/~partanen/pic10.jpghttp://www.ee.oulu.fi/~partanen/k5.jpgIf any of you need information as to how to construct your own hardware, let me know, I'd love to give you advise. It's not difficult, and the best part is that it's CHEAP and you get to design the layouts etc. yourself!Tero

You're the man! :-)access to electronic staff is priceless for cockpit builders - the panels looks great!I understand you read the radio data from FS? doesn't PIC make a problem with it?

EXCELLENT!I'll be starting my FSBUS project soon just for the basic stuff for starts (MCP/Radios). I'm currently investigating where I can make the PCBs, if I can find all the components here or need to order etc...Could you give us an estimate how much this whole thing had cost you?Thanks, Fly Safe!George DorkofikisAthens, Greece

Well guys...Since I don't have to pay for the PCBs at all (I get the "empty" PCBs for free from my school and etch them myself), this price quote is strictly for electronics and materials.The MCP ~ 40
