Morning, Bill...

>>Here is a link to the exact "finger" trackball:<<

Now THAT'S a great little accessory! Can even use that here at the
desktop!

Did a little search, and found it is offered on several websites for as
little as $11.95 and as much as $24.95 (its MSRP).

Also found a couple of WIRELESS finger trackball (logitech makes one)
for a bit more ($30-50)...that sounds like a possibility as well.

Also found this unique little unit...a wireless, rechargeable, RF finger
trackball! Not sure what's in the handle (probably batteries) but it
sure looks like the control stick might fit up inside it (at least mine,
which is still the plans called Long EZ version)...maybe replace the
batteries with a hard wired modification with the wires through the
stick? Make a neat looking control stick. Almost Thrustmaster style.

Think I'll take a trip around the local stores this morning and see
what's available here (we have ALL the big stores here in Henrietta
within a mile or so of each other...Wal-Mart, Sam's, BJ's, Target, Best
Buy, CompUSA, Circuit City, Radio Shack, Sears, Wegman's <G>, etc, etc.)

I've got a couple of guys scratching on napkins at Connie's
El Mexico cafe over ways to do an annunciator system.
They're considering system sizing and trying to deduce
whether to craft a 9 or 12 slot annunciator panel. It seems that
the largest segment of the OBAM aircraft community would have
trouble filling up a 9-slot annunciator panel.

A 9-slot panel is looking like 4.2 x 1.6 inches. A 12-slot
would be 5.3 x 1.6 inches. We're considering processes for
both fabrication and software that would make the product
highly customizable. I.e. you decide whether incoming signals
are analog, pull up to bus, pull down to ground, what
the legends say, and colors of the legends. Of course this
is a 'dead front' design . . . legends essentially disappear
when not illuminated.

Just for grins, I'll toss the question out to the list.
From of the list items below, what additional or alternative
points of interest might be important enough to light a light
and/or blow in your ear?

Main Volts Lo
Aux Volts Lo
Left Fuel Lo
Right Fuel Lo
Oil Pres Lo
Canopy Latch
OAT Warn
Pitot Heat

Bob,
Running a liquid cooled rotary, I would add:
Coolant Temp,
Coolant Pres,
Coolant Low, and also
Oil Temp.
