Yeah, I have seen them, Sure electronics offer a similar encoder with silver encoder knobs for the same price.

A good deal here, the noise of cockpit will overide the 'clicks' you hear, so not a probably.

These encoders are used by many people on here and work well with all sorts of I/O cards.

Thanks.

Yeah, I was saying earlier that they are noisy in an electronic respect. If you look at the signal they generate on a scope they have a ton of bounce and bounce-back. HUGE amounts more than the CTS encoders. Software on some I/O cards de-bounce the contacts and make the signal plenty usable. I put together a standalone FCU a while back with a AVR and a little flourescent display and used these.. I just accounted for the excessive bounce in the code and they worked fine. Actuall a cool little project.

As far as these encoders go, if you like the sytle of the knobs the price would be decent just for the knobs themselves. On the ones I got the top pops off and you tighten a hex nut to secure the knob to the control shaft.

Hello

You could try one of these: (inside the blue circle)




A shot of my 767 MIP.

One problem - you'll need Encoder-II converter as long as you want to run OC-hardware.
These small mechnical encoders are very often used in PC-mice and are 1/2 cycle.
