I'm looking at the Garsim 530 and the PDF is very impressive. A question, since the BU0836X board can support many encoders, is there any reason I can't build the 530 into a panel and use the same BU0836X and add other 0 detent rotary encoders for ADF, VOR, ADI, Heading Bug, etc? I gather wire length can be a concern, but aside from that, for the non-gps encoders I am considering these from Mouser:

knobs

I am in the US, so some of the sources cited in the forum are not practical for me. I don't know much about this, so any advice is welcome. Thanks!

Hi! Built one of these a while back. Not sure I fully understand....are you wanting to add the rotaries onto the g530 panel itself? Or onto a larger a/c master panel, like a c172, and then just use the extra inputs/outputs of the same 836x? I used digikey for most of my hardware and had good luck with them. Those at mouser should be fine though.

Yes, a master panel. Sorry, should have been more clear about that. I was looking at digikey, and I thought you had to buy in bulk to order from them. 1,000 pieces for example, is that not the case?

Do you have any photos of your 530 you could share? I'd love to see it. Thanks!
