Hi,has anyone any experience of buying the pre tinned and drilled FSBUS PCB's from www.cockpitsonic.deI notice that they sell the completed boards for about 100 euro each, but that you can buy the boards drilled and tinned, but lacking components for about 15 euro.I can get the components from Maplin or RS at a reasonable enough price, but have no experience of etching PCB's and would prefer to purchase them from a manufacturer.Are the ones from cockpitsonic.de compatible with the latest versions of FSBUS, and are they of a high standard.Thanks

Hi,yes the boards are compatible - original layout.The quality is standard...they simply workAnd you also have the option of ordering "non-drilled" boards - that makes things cheaper...

Good luck ordering... I have sent them several emails with questions about ordering a COMIII controller board but have received no response. If you successfully order let me know the secret!

I didn't want to go to the mess of creating PCB's, so I made my boards from "Vero" boards, which are prototype boards. Its bit of a lengthy process but its alot simpler. Just be careful if you do make it that way because its easy to mess it up. I just followed the PCB layout and highlighted the areas I had completed so I didn't forget where I was up to.Kind Regards,

All,Just wanted to drop a note to say that Mathias saw my post here and replied to me via email. I'm not sure why he did not receive the emails I sent from their site, but you should know that he watches these forums, so if you can't get them one way, you can always get to them here :)

Mitch,glad to hear you got a reply. I am about 1-2 months away from ordering boards up.I am still planning out what I want to achieve with FSBUS, and pricing up what I would need to buy.So far I am looking at a radio stack unit, an FMC unit and an MCP unit, all for 767 PIC. However I would not be able to get the data for the MCP displays.I am also looking at developing the throttle unit that JMI developed.Using MDF wood this could be made for a fraction of the cost that CH products are talking for their throttle quadrant.Later

I know this is an old thread, but I am also looking for FSBUS PCB but they have to be pre drilled.Any one know any other places where these can be purchased?ThanksGareth
