I will have 3,4,5, and 6 digit versions. As soon as the new PCBs arrive for the Igor Plug I will know if I am going to make the displays boards with them. This is the first set of boards I have sent to this company. The price is very very good, so if the boards are ok I will be makeing lots more stuff... I think it's high time we had affordable PCBs for the EFIS and FCU panels, all that hand-wiring gets boring after the first 100 or so wires. An affordable, pre-drilled PCB with backlighting would have been awesome when I started building mine, not to mention more reliable in the long run.
