Welcome to the repository for my very first PCB design, crafted specifically for an A-10C cockpit simulator project. This project has been a labor of love, a lot of learning, and yes, a few missteps - but that's the beauty of DIY!
Check out the demo video to see the A10C UFC in action:
Thank you so much PCBWay.com for sponsoring this project! I was genuinely surprised by how quickly the PCBs arrived - in just 9 days, without even opting for the very express shipping variant. The quality is outstanding, and the PCBs work flawlessly in my setup. It's been a fantastic experience, from design submission to receiving the boards ready for assembly.
The A-10C UFC PCB is for my custom A-10C cockpit control panel.
- Add more backlight LEDs so the bottom row is better illuminated.
- Add another yellow LED for the Master Caution to spread out light more evenly.
- Better connector?
You can find the code for the PCB and Arduino Nano at https://github.com/w3z315/a10c-ufc-arduino.
Inside this repository, you'll find all the KiCad files used to create the PCB. Feel free to browse through them, use them as a reference, or even contribute to improving the design.
