127 inputs. 138 available with a pair of mega2560 boards and Mobiflight. About to run it through Lightburn and F360 to make the faceplate.
Am I missing anything? I do have flaps on my joystick.

After lasing and routing the faceplate I realized that it was a little busy for a VR setup. So I paired it down to the buttons and dials I actually touch in-game. It turned out well and made VR flight so much more enjoyable.
Mobiflight made this possible. THANKS!

Nice Work !

Looks like i miss to reply some months ago.....

Doon1:

Pin 0-53 and A0-A15 = 54 + 16 = 70 Pins .... MINUS Pin 0 and Pin 1 (Both INOP) is 68 Pins in total.
68*2 = 136 !

So your lucky that your calculation only use 127 Pins..... In case your expected Maximum was 2 Pins over the limitation!

Good Luck !

That would have sucked...

Now that I've been flying it for a few days I realize that I want more buttons. I may have to build the original design; with even more buttons added to it.

Pretty much everything in the 172 should do it.
