Real Throttle and Pedestal conversion project

The ECP has now been successfully interfaced with Jeehell FMGS with Cockpit Concept ARINC429 boards -- it was a straight forward procedure, and very minimal wiring required.

Nice work Ben!

A review of the Cockpit Concept ARINC 429 boards which made this all possible: https://soarbywire.wordpress.com/201...-board-review/

RMP now successfully linked up with P3D and Vatsim/IVAO

Pinouts at http://www.soarbywire.com/…/09/08/rudder-trim-panel-pinouts/

Performed an engine failure, and it looks like FMGS does a very good job compensating with rudder autotrim :)

Good work Ben, are you using ARINC 429 for this as well?
John

Yes, using Christoph's ARINC 429 boards. They are very easy to work with - only two wires for the Rudder Trim panel.

hi Ben, I was wondering what did you use to connect the 5v power for the backlite? Can you show a picture of that connection? I have real glarewings that have the same type of connections as yours here on your pic.

thanks
