Aircraft Setup Switch Panels

[misterouija]

I was thinking about how I wanted to hook up my switches a while ago and after looking into things I decided I wanted somthing authentic to aircraft setups of the 50's, 60's and 70's instead of standard switches.. so push buttons were chosen on a panel with real WWII aircraft pressure gauges.

I got bored and started workin on a custom switch panel for the two pumps I plan on keeping.

Check this out... Old School style... This panel is for Two Pumps and Two Dumps using four switches ... this is very simple.. it only does front and back...I'm going to make one for a four pump aircraft setup... I will be selling these panels pre wired once I catch up with other things..

Looks like a great idea. I was thinking of using an original panel from a bomber. But the switches would need to be changed out and seemed too" aircraft like" for me. But then again aircraft hydraulics in a car is sweet.

Many thanks to Jay.

they should work, a bunch of buttons instead a bunch of switches is no different.

one question, do the gauges need an oil hose? or they are electric :blink:

These gauges were choosen for not having to use a sending unit. you have to put a t fitting in the line and run a hose to the gauge..
