For my Viper build. http://www.buildsbybaz.com/category/viper-build/
On the left, (port side) of the cockpit on the shelf near the pilot's arm, are some everyday items they used in the Battlestar Galactica MK II Colonial Viper screen used prop. I need help trying to find the real world items they may have used.
The large black panel with all the buttons and dials is a control panel from a video editing machine called an AMPEX VPR-80. The red switch far left is the power switch from an old IBM personal computer.
The next item from the AMPEX panel is a mystery so far, though I may be cracking it with help from others.
It looks like the knob and lever is a throttle control stick from an aircraft, but the black unit it is attached to could be anything. Someone suggested it may be a clearance light housing from a truck with the lens removed.
Lastly I have the two items either side of the red switch to identify.
The red lamp is proving extremely difficult to find in all kinds of industries where lamps may be used.
Th octagonal item appears to be a speaker, but with an octagonal cone and square housing, I have yet to find an image of one anywhere else. It could alos be an air vent out of something or even the base of a joystick or gear stick.
Please, if you know what any of these are and where to get them, let me know.
Cheers,
Baz.
