I have three panels cut and painted but will give the paint a week to fully cure before trying to engrave. This panel won't be backlit so I was able to make it from aluminium and powder coat it. It's the first panel specifically for the helicopter side of the pit. The hydraulic switch will activate a couple of small linear actuators. These will be set up to clamp some friction rings. My hope is that I can somewhat realistically simulate the added force required to move the controls when you lose hydraulic assist.
