I have designed and manufactured my throttles back in 2004 as seen at this link. The initial design was plastic levers without reverse locking mechanism and aluminium body and non moving plastic based trim wheels. Recently I have decided to upgrade the throttle set, so that I have more realistic looking levers and try to implement the reverse thrust locking levers as well. The design is an existing one (with all the necessary STL files included) which was officialy purchased

Before having a 3D printer, I used to make my "korry like" buttons using microswitches, Kingbright DE/2ID type led bars and some small plexi plates working as support structures as you can see in this blog entry and photos. Note that these buttons are dated back to 2004-2005 , so lots have changed since then. You may see how I do my korry buttons and find a comprehensive tutorial via this link All buttons are hooked on the opencockpits I/O boards and coded via SIOC to speak w

I designed and manufactured my throttle levers back in 2004. Below are some photos from the design phase, manufacturing phase and installation in place. Firstly, I have designed in 2D environment, looking at various photos available in the internet as I never had the change to go in the real cockpit to measure things out. After I was satisfied with the 2D design , I did a 3D design to get a feeling of how the complete product would look like in reality. All went good, the cas

This project is from 1998, where I designed, manufactured and installed a special purpose crane for the manufacturing of the inverse conical concrete section / platform and the steel structure above the conical platform for aluminium facade cladding anf glass structure (upper level of platform is +144.729m) at Ender TV Broadcasting tower located in Beylikduzu - İstanbul. The height of the concrete part of the tower is +163.300 m above +0.00. The foundation is located at -9.50

As a junior engineer freshly graduated from university, my first construction project abroad (away from Istanbul) was in Mersin Turkey, Cimsa Cement Plant. We built 3 nos. of concrete silos for OPC (Ordinary Portland Cement), I was responsible for the design, manufacturing and installation of all the steel works The steel works were ; inside the silo on the bottom a conical bunker structure with precast concrete blocks, at the upper level of the silo for the installation plat

This was my first ever engineering project which was the design, manufacturing and construction of a stainless steel chimney for a battery plant in Kurtköy Istanbul. It was an ~80cm inner diameter stainless steel chimney with rock wool thermal insulation and aluminium cladding on the outside. The support steel structure was also designed by me. I was working at Endem Construction back then as a junior mechanical engineer, fresh out of the university. Even back then I knew tha

I've already published a short guide on how I make produce my korry type buttons. There is even a short video on my youtube channel on korry production. In this tutorial I will give provide more detailed descriptions and steps in the production. The end product will be like below. So please follow the steps provided and better improve on the way. #airbus #a320 #airbusa320 #homecockpit #homesimulator #simulation #electronics #turkish #engineering #challenge #3d #3dprinting #co
