Partners and Resources
Partners
I call these “Partners” as they have provided parts or resources for the project.
Altimeter Motives, LLC Provided a Flatscreen Monitor overlay that’s perfect for practicing instrument flying, as well as the acrylic glass that goes in my instruments. Highly recommend checking them out! I work closely with them to develop their new and innovative products.
FlightSimMaker provided the G1000 PCBs for my project as well as his fantastic G1000 designs online! Go ahead and check out his videos. (Seriously! go check them out!)
PropWashSim provided the dual encoders for this project and the 7 segment displays. This company is the only place I’ve seen sell MAX 7219 Displays with less than 8 in a row (super helpful for radios)
FlightSimStuff provided the Throttle Propeller Mixture Module. Love how smooth the throttles feel. This has been since replaced by my own (for the pleasure of building) but I enjoyed this product.
