JeeHell FMGS and Leobodnar board

Ok I'll try it with Mobiflight again! If it doesn't work I will post a question again. :)

If you separate inputs and outputs by board, you do not need 7 power supplies, only for the LED outputs those would be necessary.

I am not the big specialist in Mobiflight, I have just realized a small panel with the soft until now (some switches and some LED´s). I was thinking about building my overhead based on Mobiflight, but for several reasons I am still flying with my 1st prototype OVH and have currently no time for building.

Hi Stephan, looking through some tutorial videos it looks like you have to set an FSUIPC state for each output/input? This could be a time assuming affair when JL offers a plug and play solution for the fds Sys boards. I am also already running other fds boards so that would mean one less DLL or program to run.

Perhaps I can run the mega boards for the 7 segment displays, but stick with the Sys board for the input/outputs.

Well, it is not "plug and play", but in one of the latest versions Sebastian has implemented support for Jeehell.
I can only suggest to give it a try, you may start your testing with one board and then you can decide how to build the OVH :-)

Have a nice day!

If you decide to go with Leo Bodnar suggest you use the button box rather than the joystick card. Agree best solution is Sys1. I use Open cockpit display card for the seven digits.
