Flight Panel for Msfs2020 V1

cms-image-cover

This project is initially composed of 3 Pcbs boards.
It is arranged this way so as not to make a very large board, segmenting each board's functionalities.
The 3 boards are connected to each other, with PcbMain controlling everything.

The boards are as follows.
- PcbMain: Main board where the arduino mega2560 is put on and taken off, and its connectors where all its devices are derived.
- PcbKeys1 : Board where the set of push buttons and rotary encoders are arranged, as well as as 2 linear potentiometers for gas control.
- Pcbleds1: Board to control up to 24 leds with 3 74hc595 chips through 3 data pins, and a single pin for the brightness of all the leds.
 

In addition to the push buttons, rotary encoders, and LEDs, there is a set of 6 7-segment, 8-digit displays, accompanied by rotary encoders, which together control the autopilot parameters.
This would have been ideal to do on a pcb board, but its size would be huge and it would be expensive. It is mounted on a panel, and each device is connected to its PcbMain connector.
