hey guys,
this might be of use to some of you:
i've scripted a set of basic instruments in Python that might be of use to some of you.
the Youtube clip shows it attached to my UAV project.
for anyone who hasn't used it, Python is a particularly easy to use programming language that is used for all sorts of applications.
there are loads of add on libraries to do much of the hard work for you which makes it particularly useful for this sort of rapid development.
the Python code can be downloaded here under the name "cockpit.zip":
