3D-printed aircraft controls + electronics

Featured Replies

I've just found a very interesting site if you have access to a 3D printer (which, sadly, I don't at the moment): http://hc625ma.org.

If you look under the Simchair MK III menu, you'll find all the details and downloads for printing your own full-sized controls (primarily for helicopters but also for GA aircraft). Most of the controls seem to use hall-effect sensors. He also has details of a stackable throttle quadrant. The physical controls are all under the Peripherals sub-menu. There are some very sophisticated add-ons, particularly for the helicopter controls. He even includes details of all of the electronics (Arduino boards), wiring and software required.
