Hi :rolleyes:
I plan the Yaw Damper, Wing Antice, AT ARM and Parking Brake, using the Honeywell Micro Switch with solenoid.

I will control it by means of a relay with two contacts NC and NO.
I would like to start with AT ARM :)
P3D + Arduino mega
Thank you for your help :)

You know those switches (Original Honeywell) cost maby 900+$ ??
The non certificated for Homecockpits cost maby 165 $ as i see already in shops.

But shure... THIS is the perfect way to do this.... Whatever most cockpitbuilders thinkabout a low Budget DIY system with a cheap push/Pull solenoid.

Check This....

The links are show the DIY systems... Sorry for german topic... Use Google translator if needed.

Also check this to see a example for the configs ( Whatever this is for Airbus.... But there you see the basic idea)

If you need some brainstorming we maby can talk via "teamviewer" but my time is verry limited at the moment.
Good Luck !

THX :) :rolleyes:
Pizman82 - I was very lucky to sell. They were old but unused, and they were not corroded. If you care more, write to FB.
Thanks for the links, I'll look at it. B)
