Hey guys, I have been a long time viewer but have never posted much on the forums. However, I recently finished something that I thought I would share. Using a 3d printer, I designed these saitek replacement knobs that I custom modeled. I was inspired by the learjet 45's simplicity and style of knob, and I thought that would be a great place to start. Over about a month i managed to finish them and get the hang of using a 3d printer. The reverse levers rotate, but do not function in the flight sim for obvious technical reasons. Now that I have a replacement solution for my own flight sim, I have a few questions for the community: What do you think? Would you be interested in this as a product? Should I consider selling additional kits? Where would I post such a thread? Is there anything in the design that should be changed? It is just a thought for the moment, but I am interested in what you guys have to say to a potential ... say $50 vanity item.

I have a gauge on one of my aircraft that registers negative prop rpm. I have been able to get the gauge working but it seems to me that there is something else that I need to fix because I would think that I shouldn't have a negative value in the gauge. The digital readout shows a negative value but the analog dial will not function because it is expecting a positive value. Is there a way I can use the abs function to get the digital display to display a positive value and also use the abs function in the needle portion to get that to work? That way if I ever have another aircraft that gives me a negative value I can still use this gauge. But does anyone know why I would be getting a negative value in the first place? That might be what I really need to solve instead of just trying to get rid of the symptoms. Any help would be greatly appriciated! Jonathan
