Kerbal Controller

The article "Kerbal Controller - the Basics" https://www.instructables.com/Kerbal-Controller-the-Basics/ introduced me to a small but awesome #SimPit community on Discord.

It's also of interest for people not into #KSP as it describes the basics for DIY controllers of any kind very well.

The control panel used for demonstration has another bonus going: It's completely modular and can be 3D printed at home.

Can recommend ๐Ÿ‘

Wow, I love to see that. I think I might never build anything like that, I just do not know enough about all of it, but being a fan of KSP, I really enjoy imagining using that to play it.

That's incredible! It looks so clean

@nyrath @diysimulators totally possible. Even pre assembled. Coda makes these ๐Ÿ˜

This is awesome. I want to build something similar for the Viggen simulator in DCS World.

You're in luck. DCS BIOS should have you covered: https://dcs-bios.a10c.de/
