its in more than one shot. Not Died

In my diligent research, I just came across another tidbit of information. The knob has a continuous indicator line running down it. The previous best guess on the correct knob has segmented indicator lines.

Parts are in for the charging cable. I think the last thing left to arrive is all the wire, then we can get this thing rolling! Ill be hand assembling the PCB and the Stanleys as orders are shipped, so that will end up being the bottleneck.

Anyone get a charger yet? The order I placed 2 months ago for the switches came in today. The wrong color knobs were sent, though.

Did you try hobbyKing? I know they have an EU warehouse and ship all over. They should be able to ship to almost any country. You may have to search their website to get the charger that comes with the correct wall plug for your region, but if you dont the plug is easy enough to find locally...

Thanks everyone, I like the way the project is turning out too:). The last step is trying to cost reduce to make it easier on everyone's wallets. I want everyone that wants one to be able to get a kit. At the same time, I can't take a loss on the stuff - and I will not be reducing quality to...

Here are a few pics of the front and the inside. This one was built in time so I could take it with me to a convention, so it was rushed and things aren't right or final. like for instance; the plate is slightly wrong on the dims, the molex light is mounted too low, the jacket size on the wire...

Small update video up on youtube. Ill post some pics this afternoon. http://youtu.be/8hEbo5ZAavM

I've got a working remote together, I will find time tonight or tomorrow to post a video and some pics.

I happen to have 10 close LEDs kicking around in my junk box that are pretty close. They let me assemble the first Readout tonight. I had to dust off the electronics to light it up, so I thought I would demo turning the knob in a super quick video (sorry for the quality). -Gary

An Irrational fear that an adhesive alone would not hold up over time. Call me old school, but I like my mechanical fasteners! I've got some 3m VHB tape on order thats the right color and thickness. Looking over some frames, I noticed that the plate doesnt have dividers. Here is a pic of a...

'Someone in the know' was shown the screen grabs in post #29 and asked If sticky backed velcro was used to hold the plate and the unibox to the futaba. To quote, the answer I received is " It was probably just a couple of tabs of double faced foam core tape." :cry Sad that is the answer, glad...

On the plate subject - I actually took a second and measured the one I've pictured, and I bent it in the wrong spot:facepalm. Ill post pics of a new one. It should look better. In other news, I got the PCBs in yesterday for inside the readout displays. I took the time and soldered one up with...

That is a lot of work very fast. Impressive.
