F-15E Strike Eagle UFC
Description
What you need: 7" 800x600 4:3 CLAA070MA0ACW LCD Screen 10 pieces: 6 x 6 x 10mm Tactile Switches (Display Buttons) 35 pieces 6 x 6 x 4.3mm Tactile Switches 6 pieces Potentiometers 2 pieces Rotary Encoders 2 On-Off-On Switches a Leobodnar BU0836X USB + a 12-button joystick USB board or an Arduino a few M3 and M4 screws, some hot glue, some 3mm rigid foam board !! NOTE !! This thing is BIG! If you have a small printer like me (Creality Ender 3), you have to be print some parts WITHOUT rafts!!! You can label the panels by changing the filament at the appropriate print height in Cura (etc.). I only did this for the buttons. I printed the other labels on adhesive film. I made these prints resistant with acrylic paint. So, there is an option "NO-LABELS" for some STL parts. I have attached a suitable PNG. This can be easily printed on A4 adhesive film. For some areas in the interior, such as the housing for the electrical boards and the back panel of the UFC, I simply used a 3mm rigid foam board. I simply used a Leobodnar BU0836X USB board, as well as a simple 12-button joystick USB board. It's not pretty, but it works out of the box. Of course, you can also use a different solution (Arduino, etc.). Since I already use a 4K monitor and three 7" MFD screens, my monitor outputs were scarce. The solution was the "Matrox TripleHead2Go". I got the DP version cheaply on eBay. Here I combined my three 800x600 MFD screens into one 2400x600 screen. Now I only need one DP connection to the graphics card for my three MFDs, and I can connect the UFC to the graphics card with a DP to HDMI cable. The viewpoint export must be adjusted exactly so that the lines are readable. Please refer to the pictures!! Since I change the UFCs, throttles, and joysticks depending on the aircraft at night, I have created various PowerShell scripts for starting DCS, which accordingly adjust the MonitorConfig, etc. before starting DCS. If you only use the UFC in VR, you can also simply use a red acrylic glass instead of the LCD screen.
