I think I could drive an ASI, AI, TC, VSI and engine guages using
Phidgets just by writing FG values to a phidgets device in the correct
sense but anything more is rocket-science to me due to the code involved.
http://www.f15sim.com/index.html is a website you might try. He is
using Phidgets
to drive some of his gauges. Don't have the details.
Phidgets are insanely easy to drive. Right now the only gauges I'm
driving are 1" custom built steam gauges for the oil & hyd pressure.
They use ultra-micro Futaba servos with a 2:1 gear ratio to drive the
pointer.
You might want to head over to http://www.mikesflightdeck.com if you
want to see how to scratch build your own gear.
