UFC MS21382-0XNX.sldprt missing shaft hole and set screw hole

Fix errors in DISP Button

Fix errors in DISP Button Assembly.sldasm. Will likely require remodeling.

Left Console Skins

Design, model, and integrate left console skins.

FCS Panel corners need to be rounded

The panel for the FCS does not have rounded corners like the other panels. attached images compare FCS with SNSR panels.

Instrument Panel Glareshield

Require MCAD and integration into next higher assembly.

Indicator configurations scrambled

Go through all legends on indicators and correct to proper configurations. Somehow button legends and indicator legends all got scrambled pretty badly in the model.

Rudder Pedal Adjust Handle

Design and integrate a Rudder Pedal Adjust Handle that clamps/glues over the switch bat for releasing the rudder pedal locking solenoid.

Parts List

Create a parts list for the major end items and top level assembly.

F/A-18C Hornet™ HOTAS Add-On Grip

Require a model for further flight control stick development of the Thrustmaster F/A-18C Hornet™ HOTAS Add-On Grip. This model can either be created in SW2019 (or earlier) or STEP. High fidelity model with an accurate weight and approximate center of mass is required.

HUD/HUD Box

Design, Model and Integrate into NHA the HUD frame and HUD Box details.

HUD Box
HUD Camera

Gear Replacement

Evaluate all gears in components and replace metal gears with printed gears where possible within design constraints.

UFC Mega Shield

Requirements

Shield for Mega, breaks out to two UFC IDC connectors and standard power bus 4-pin connector.

BATT (Voltage) Gauge Stepper Mount

Design, model, and integrate BATT Stepper Mount for VID28-05 into NHA.

ER-TFTV101A1-1 Controller and Keyboard

Require model of the ER-TFTV101A1-1 display controller and keyboard PCBs for the model.

Given that these two PCBs are COTS components, a STEP file of each PCB is perfectly okay.

Add internal radii to CNC'd parts

Add .125/.25 internal radii on CNC'd parts as applicable.

Replace RALT OFF Flag

Consider replacing the servo driven OFF flag in RALT with OLED (or simple blacked out indicator light) to simplify gauge.

DDI/AMPCD Shield Bezel Changes

TODO for this PCB:

Remove 1x POT connector
Add 4 pin connector for DDI rotary (3 DI + GND)
Add 2x 3 pin connector (2 DI + GND) for AMPCD HDG/CRS toggles
Fix i2c addressing.

UFC PCB

Redesign Standby Instrument Cluster

Redesign left LIP to remove existing screen and utilize 10.4 or similar LCD for standby instrument cluster, SARI, and RWR. Additionally, update system architecture and bezels.

Rudder Pedal Gantry

Design, model and integrate into NHA

Hard Mounted Rudder Configuration

Add an optional configuration for hard mounting rudders.

Center Tub Structure

Design, model, integrate into NHA:

Center Tub Structure
Install HW
- Utilize console mounted pins and 2x electromagnets per side of the "hump" to lock center tub into place.
Seat Mounting Interface
- Interface will consist of aluminum U-channel with rubber liner inside to act as a vibration isolator to support Buttkicker or similar. Should be medium to hard durometer isolation substrate. Will also require isolation against the "hump" of the center tub.
Flight Control Stick Interface
- Interface should be accessible from the top.
Casters
- Add 4X 2406T33 fixed casters, then replace wheels with Acetal Multidirectional Skate Wheel
Cable Routing
- Add flexible cable tray/carrier/drag chain on outboard side of left seat mount for routing cables to left console.
