This version here does not have the top extension slot, if you want it, just take the enclosure part from the i2c EVO version, and route the ethernet cable between the base and the extension inside of the base box. |

* axis switching: this lever can drive 2 throttle axes with 1 physical throttle grip. The right mode switch controls which axis is assigned to the throttle pot at the moment. When you flip the switch, you need to reach the position of your other axis before it will start moving, to avoid sudden axis value bumps and having to remember what is where. | * axis switching: this lever can drive 2 throttle axes with 1 physical throttle grip.

+ | To make soldering the USB-B socket easier, cut some part of each wire of the ribbon cable on the Arduino side, making it thinner. After soldering, carefully check that the board is detected by your PC and can be flashed, and pour some hot glue onto the board to fix soldered wires. After it cools down, check the board again, if it works, go ahead with the rest of the wiring process. | ||
