Hi everyone, I have found some free time lately and I have done some fixes in the Radiostack and Arduino Shield. Changes: 1. Fixed the Transponder 5 pin switch alignment, now the 5 position switch should fit in place 2. Fixed GND Pin issue in the Encoder, Switches and Leds connections 3. Radiostack pins aligned with Arduino Shield pins. 4. Arduino's extra ports (the rest of them) now usable Before I publish the gerber files, if you guys have any other issues, let me know and i will fix it (or maybe if you list all the issues you have had and I will go one by one and fix them). Direct link to the website LINK |

hello do you know where i can buy the gps pcb please You can download the gerber files for the GPS in the website and order them online or check this forum as someone had some spares I think. If you want to download the gerber files, I suggest that you wait a little as I will upload GPS V.2 tonight because the first one had some minor issues with some GND pins. |

how do i download the gerber files and will i find a link to buy the pcb boards for radio stack and gps ?
second: Is there a diagram or a tutorial video on how to completely wire and setup the radio stack board and the gps
thanks

You can download the gerber files from the links in the website (Radiostack here and Arduino shield here). Once you download them, you need to purchase them online (upload those files) from a company you choose. Before doing that be aware that you can't purchase only one board but a minimum of 5 for each (5 radiostacks, 5 arudino shields, 5 gps), which means you only need one of each and the rest you can sell to someone. The wiring is straight forward, the components are drawn in the pcb board, but you can ask here if you need help with something. Connecting the radiostack to the arduino shield is also done through connectors (you need 3 Arduino Mega boards). The reason i have done it this way it is because for me, building is as much fun as seeing it working, and the price of course. If you think you can't make it by yourself, maybe you ask here in the forum if someone has some spares and can ship them to you, or if someone can build the whole radiostack and gps for you. I have seen people building them for others. I can't do that because first it is a bit hard for the shipping where I'm located and second i don't have a lot of free time. |

Hello AlbEagle,
Really impressive effort and design on the radio stack! I'd like to give it a try with the V2 boards (and anyone else reading this I'm likely to have a few to sell since I have to print 5 (US address)). I'm trying to submit the Gerber files and am running into some roadblocks. I haven't done this before. I can't seem to find the X and Y dimensions of the V2 boards.
Here is how I've labeled your files for the upload, is this correct?
Top Silkscreen: RadiostackPCBDhjetor2019CADCAMTopSilkScreen.GBR
Top Soldermask: RadiostackPCBDhjetor2019CADCAMTopSolderResist.GBR
Top Copper: RadiostackPCBDhjetor2019CADCAMTopCopper.GBR
Bottom Copper: RadiostackPCBDhjetor2019CADCAMBottomCopper.GBR
Bottom Soldermask: RadiostackPCBDhjetor2019CADCAMBottomSolderResist.GBR
Bottom Silkscreen: RadiostackPCBDhjetor2019CADCAMBottomSilkScreen.GBR
Drill: RadiostackPCBDhjetor2019CADCAMDrillTOPBOTPlated.GBR
I'm still left with these files.... can you help?
Mechanical 1.GBR
Netlist.IPC
Thanks, DGM

Excellent work, thanks for sharing the gerbers.
I have a question, the radio rack PCB are indicated: COM1 POT, COM2 POT, NAV1 POT and NAV2 POT, are they encoders?

Excellent work, thanks for sharing the gerbers. I have a question, the radio rack PCB are indicated: COM1 POT, COM2 POT, NAV1 POT and NAV2 POT, are they encoders? COM1 POT, COM2 POT, NAV1 POT and NAV2 POT are right now not used. They were meant to turn on/off the coms/navs and dim the lights. Since dimming the 7 segment displays was not possible with Mobiflight, i designed them for future use. So they are Potentiometers with on/off functions. But you can use the On/Off function to turn on/off individual comms/navs. |

I just tried to order the PCBs from JLCPCB and they told me both Gerber file sets failed audit. They said to reupload in RS-274-X format. Anyone had this issue? David

After talking to the manufacturer, it seems they need a RS-274-X format.

Hi All,
I've started on my radio stack, but would like more detail on just how the Arduino's are connected to the shields and the shields to the main board.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi!where can I get the dual encoders ? There are instructions for DIY, but I'm wondering if these will work? Dual encoders |
