Re: Wiring a real C172 Ignition Switch

You guys rock. I think Tony is on the right track. I did have it working through Simvim but that was over a year ago and I forget how it was coded and can't find my old forum post over there.

Re: Wiring a real C172 Ignition Switch

Hi everyone, My apologies for digging up this old post but I'm back to working on my panel after upgrading to AM4. I've got everything else working but I'm still having a bit of trouble with this particular switch. I was wondering if anyone had any input on how I should wire it up using the C172 Mag...

I was looking to get some feedback as to the proper way to wire this guy up based on the wiring diagram I f...

Any luck with RPI3 and Sunfounder Touch Screens?

Hello everyone, I'm currently building a C172 panel that uses three screens. The main steam gauges are using a 22" monitor and then I have two Sunfounder 7" IPS touch screens that I'm using for the audio panel, GPS, transponder, and auto pilot. The top touch screen is connected to Windows ...
