Summary

This is a button box based on the A-10C LASTE (autopilot) panel that's below to the throttle.
it is powered by an arduino nano running DCS-Bios fork by Skunkworks https://github.com/DCS-Skunkworks/dcs-bios
It measures 170mm wide and 60mm high to compliment the saitek x52 throttle.

have added the DCS-Bios sketch that is running on the Arduino that can be used as an example.

Working on multiple button boxes that are going to be uploaded when they are tested.

DISCLAIMER: This does not show up as a generic joystick/HID-device and is specifically made to be used with DCS bios to interface between DCS and the buttonbox.
The added sketch will only work with the A10C warthog and A10C II Tank killer modules in DCS.
Ofcourse you can remap these within the sketch to other modules if you wish, it is purely an example of the possibilities.
