About this model

I've build an "LOCK / SHOOT" indicator for the F/A-18C "Hornet" for my deskpit. It contains five pieces: The casing, the backside with holder for an Arduino Micro Pro, the LED-holder and the front-inserts "Lock", Shoot" & "Flash". The pieces will assembled as shown in the pictures and should be self-explaining. Print the LED-holder and the flash-panel (the lower one without text) in white resin. Everything else should be printed in black resin. The holes on the inside-piece are build for 3mm LEDs, feel free to drill them for bigger LED-sizes. Be extreme cautious, whe drilling resin, use very slow speed, else the resin will fracturize! You'll have to glue the LEDs into the holes and connect them to e.g. an arduino-board. This backside casing is prepared to hold an "Arduino Micro Pro" inside…
