Small update.
SpoilerCovered the sides, back and bottom with faux velvet.
The top will be wrapped with the same material, but I still haven't made it. Still planning it out.
-
Made a frame out of plywood and hot glue. Doesn't look great tbh, but it works.
Next step is making the top and figuring out a way to make it look cleaner/more uniform. Maybe a sort of vinyl or just plain printer paper.
Not gonna label the switches until I'm certain of what they do, only 2 out of 21 didn't work the way I wanted, so, soonTM.

SpoilerIt works!
For the most part.Need to figure out how to setup 2 buttons correctly along with a switch, but other than that, it works.
The encoders need knobs/heads, but that can come later.

SpoilerFinally finished the new front plate. Still not straight, but I'm using a box cutter to make the holes, so sue me.
Now to solder the wires and program it.
I realize that I didn't mention what this is for. It's supposed to be a control panel for flight sim, kinda a mix between 2 logitech products, their switch panel & multi panel, but a lot of the things have not been added.

So glad i got 1 of the 3 prototype trackzilla from DSD when i did, never went into production. I suck at electronics so i wouldn't be able to make one myself
-
This is my first time making something like this, so I'm on the same boat.
The saving grace here is a program called mobiflight that talks to the arduino, so I don't have to learn how to program it.

SpoilerGonna start over. Not because it wasn't straight, but because of a design flaw. Kept the rotary encoders too close to each other, they did not react well to that..
Also. some of the inputs did not work, but those weren't crucial as I have them mapped on my throttle, so I just removed them to reduce clutter.
Quick tip: don't do a lewdicrous and drill holes + solder wires before checking if everything works & fits.

SpoilerIt's not straight, but there's nothing wrong with that.

I'm still short a few things before I can make that happen. Owning a Civic would be a good start.

You'll have to water it every day.
Also, the seller said it's still not potty trained, so good luck with that.
