August 18, 200520 yr Being cheap and not knowing any better I thought I would try to make my instrument backgrounds and switch labels using PShop, Wal-Mart, and basic handtools. http://photos.imageevent.com/dvds4bmx/cool...example/hdg.jpgNo, they are not backlighted, not many buttons in GA aircraft are. But I think we have a trick for backlighting (CHEAP) after we verify this method. (Decals/overhead film) You can see the results and my method here:http://fs-panels.blogspot.com/Using a blog because I can edit easier then here or a webpage, AND you can add you comments and hints either place. The pictures won't fail off the end of the web in a month either. ;-)Regards,BobShttp://s95171098.onlinehome.us/junk/aopa.jpgSeems the rage to talk about the "size and speed" of each others computer. Beat this if you can for solving novel/unique problem anywhere in the cosmos. ..Have K&E and know how to use it!
August 18, 200520 yr Just as Mouser and UPS had indicated, the switches arrived before noon today.Visit the blog to see the relative size. Only 27 cents each. ;-)http://fs-panels.blogspot.com/Regards,BobShttp://s95171098.onlinehome.us/junk/aopa.jpg
