Welcome to the Builder Resources! 

NOTE: Registration and login is required to access all Zip Files!
The Builder Resources page is a “One Stop Shop” for nearly everything in the Lear45 DIY home built cockpit project including all the backlit control panels!  Here at Hangar45, we have worked hard to research, develop and release the most sought after information regarding the Lear45 panels and parts needed to make a home built flight simulator!  All the tabs on this page have been populated with DXF drawings and information pertaining to that particular panel or part!  In the near future, G-code, CAM and CDR files will be added to each individual zip file.  NOT FOR REAL WORLD AVIATION!
Why release this information you might ask?  We want to give our Hangar45 members the choice to either purchase the panels and parts from the HANGAR PRODUCTS page or enjoy the experience of building their own panels and parts with complete confidence that they have everything they need to finish their project.  By releasing the DXF files, Hangar45 has separated itself from all other flightsim websites and making full scale flight simulation obtainable for everyone!  If you have any request for information that has not yet been released, or you find something that needs additional attention, please contact us.
NOTE:  The information you find in these tabs is just one way to go about making panels and parts for your flight simulator.  You can either follow this path or use these DXF drawings as a template to make your own version.  Just be mindful that if you change the scale or mounting placements, it will affect how panels purchased will fit.  Feel free to use these drawings and files as you see fit for your own personal use.  DO NOT USE THESE FILES FOR THE PURPOSE OF COMMERCIAL USE! 

 

What will you need to build your own Lear45 project?  Believe it or not, with the exception of a CNC machine and access to a laser engraver, only common workshop tools are needed for 99% of the work.  If building the panels and parts are not for you, everything listed on this page is available on the HANGAR PRODUCTS page.

 

There are a few items that may help if you know:
  1.  The DXF files were created in Autosketch9 
  2.  The CAM files were created in Artcam2008
  3.  The CDR files were created in CorelDRAW X4
  4.  The .TAP G-code is available in mm and Inch
  5.  Make sure you install the Futura Font family!
  6.  All SMD resistors and LEDs are size 1206
 
Each of the Resource Tabs below has a compressed WinZip file in them that contains the DXF, CAM, CDR, G-code and other information needed to build that particular part or panel.  Once the WinZip file has been uploaded, no new files will be added to them unless noted in the description of the part or panel.

Project45 Control Display Unit

Control Display Unit Panel v2.0

The CDU or otherwise known as the Flight Management System is a system that no high end flight simulator should go without and you will not have to thanks to Jason Hite at FLIGHTDECKSOFTJason has developed a FMS program that replicates the UNS-1 flight management system that is second only to the real thing!

The problem quickly became, “How do we model the physical hardware of the CDU?”  The solution to the problem was to create a functional backer powered by an Arduino Nano interface card mounted behind the front face of a UNS-1 with a small and affordable LCD screen!

The DXF file below has all you would need to build your own functional CDU backer!  In addition to the functional CDU backer, there are several drawings to show how a CDU/FMS can be constructed based on a single piece of double sided clad.  Believe it or not, back lighting is also incorporated into the design!   

Find more information about the CDU/FMS Panel HERE

CDU Panel G-code coming soon!

Project45 Crew Warning Panel

Project45 Chronometer Gauges

Chronometer Gauges v2.0

It is highly recommended by several members here at Hangar45 to purchase a set of authentic Davtron M850 Chronometers if you are looking to build the best Lear45 simulator you can afford.  For about $450 a piece, you would just about have this part of your build completed. 

However, you may have obtained a set of M850s with black face plates, or maybe the set you have needs to be freshen up a bit.  In this case, you can create your own replica face plates.  Additionally, if it is not in your budget to purchase a set of authentic Davtron Chronometers, you can make a set of chronometer covers to either cover the opening in the MIP or add more affordable chronometers.

Project45 Base Frame & Deck

Base Frame & Deck v2.0 coming soon!

Project45 Aluminum MIP / Glareshield

Aluminum MIP / Glareshield v2.0

Over 12 years of refining and tuning have gone into the 2.0 version of the Aluminum MIP and Glareshield!  For you guys who already have a Project45 MIP and Glareshield, don’t panic!  In most cases, if your sim is up and running, you already made the changes as updates have been released. 

In addition to minor tweaking changes, the MIP DXF has been modified for two different versions of the three Standby Gauges.  First, the LCD version which we have used exclusively up until this time and now the optional mechanical Standby Gauges by Flight Illusions.

The Glareshield has been updated with an additional bend in the area of the Light Shade Bracket to better replicate the shape of the GS in the real Lear45.  The end result causes the GS to end up in about the same position as the v1.0 GS with only two bends with a little more clearance above the Display Units.

Find more information about the Aluminum MIP and Glareshield HERE

Project45 MIP Backer / Tower

MIP Backer / Tower v2.0

The Project45 MIP Backer and Tower is designed using .5″ Birch wood so no special tools are needed other than wood working tools.  Two 15 inch LCD screens without their plastic bezels are used behind DUs 1 and 2 and DUs 3 and 4.  A third 15 inch wide view LCD screen used for the center area of the MIP.  There are future plans to replace the center LCD screen with mechanical gauges and a smaller 10 inch LCD screen for the RMUs.

The real Lear45 Main Instrument Panel structural components are built much differently than the Project45 method.  DO NOT USE ANY MATERIAL THICKER THAN .5″!  The MIP Tower should be glued and assembled using a finishing nail gun.  The MIP Backer is held together with wood glue only.

Find more information about the MIP Backer and Tower HERE

Project45 Center Pedestal

Center Pedestal v2.0

The Project45 Center Pedestal is designed using .5″ Birch wood so that no special tools are needed other than wood working.  (The Center Pedestal full scale profile template is included with the L45 Shell Paper Plans.)

The Center Pedestal in the real Lear45 is built using .0625″ thick aircraft grade aluminum.  DO NOT USE ANY MATERIAL THICKER THAN .5″!  At a half inch thick, most all of the switch hardware fits within the panel openings.  Any thicker and the switch hardware will not fit.

The Center Pedestal should be glued and assembled using a finishing nail gun.  Round off the rear vertical edges to replicate the aluminum 90 degree bend.  After a few coats of primer and sanding, the finish looks as smooth as a metal finish!

Find more information about the Center Pedestal HERE

Project45 Throttle Quadrant Pedestal

Throttle Quadrant Pedestal v2.0

The Project45 TQ Pedestal is designed using .5″ Birch wood so that no special tools are needed other than wood working.  (The TQ Pedestal full scale profile template is included with the L45 Shell Paper Plans.)

The DXF file also includes the TQ side access covers which are made of .0625″ thick aluminum.  These pieces can either be cut by hand or preferably if you have access to a CNC waterjet.

Additionally, the TQ Pedestal drawing includes the Free fall landing gear cut outs, the exact placement of the column crossover and the rudder pedal crossover.  The TQ Pedestal should be glued and assembled using a finishing nail gun.

Find more information about the TQ Pedestal HERE

Project45 Throttle Quadrant Module

Throttle Quadrant Module v2.0

The Project45 Throttle Quadrant Module is the most difficult assembly to put together within the whole project. This TQ Module has many working features and is a must have if you are serious about building a Lear45 simulator!  If you are interested in purchasing a TQ Module visit the Hangar Products page.

Highlighted features:

  • Dual Throttle full range and  APR detents
  • Dual Fuel cutoff switches
  • Flaps lever with locking percent gates
  • Spoilers lever with position gates

Project45 Lower Column Crossover

Lower Column Crossover v2.0 coming soon!

Project45 Column & Yokes

Columns & Yokes v2.0

This DXF includes everything you need to make your own Column Heads, Column Covers and Control Columns.  Some of the construction techniques are unconventional but get the job done.

The best way to replicate the Lear45 yokes is to acquire a set of earlier yokes, such as the Lear23, Lear35, etc.  Keep in mind that the most expensive part of the yokes are the trim switches.  Try to acquire the yokes with at least the trim switches included.

Find more information about the Columns & Yokes HERE , HERE or HERE

Columns & Yokes G-code coming soon!

Project45 Dual Rudder Pedal System

Dual Rudder Pedal System v2.0

The Project45 Dual Rudder Pedal System in now on the drawing table!  The preliminary DXF drawing is here in this Zip File and has more than enough information if you want to move forward on your own.

This pedal system is a parallelogram design and both sets will be able to mechanically adjust up to four inches forward and four inches aft independently from each other.  They are also mechanically true to scale, which means the geometry of the swings and movements will replicate the real Lear45 pedal system exactly.  

We need to give a big thank you to Tom Goldberg and Randy Buchanan for taking on earlier versions of the dual rudder pedal system!  I am not sure where our Lear45 project would be without their fantastic efforts!

Find more information about the Dual Rudder Pedal System HERE

Additional Dual Rudder Pedal development coming soon!

Project45 Crew Seats

Crew Seats v2.0

The Lear45 Crew Seats are still under development but like a few other areas of this project, there is enough information in the DXF file below for anyone to move forward with it.

The Project45 Crew Seat design is based on the scale and movements of the real Lear45 Crew Seats.  They will be able to adjust forwards, backwards, up, down, recline etc.  The armrest will also be able to adjust and stow behind the back of the seats.  Everything has been considered with this preliminary design!

Find more information about the Crew Seats HERE

Additional Crew Seats Development coming soon!

Project45 Interior Trim Panels

Interior Trim Panels v2.0

A big thanks to Shane Barnes for taking the lead on the Lear45 Interior Trim Panels!  Shane was able to obtain real interior trim panels from a salvaged Lear45 aircraft and took the time to document those parts for our use here in the Hangar.

In addition to the DXF drawings of the lower trim panels and Kick Plate Panels, we have several photos available in the Zip File that better document the lower trim panels, upper trim panels and the Glareshield Cover.

NOTE: Please keep in mind that the measurements in the DXF file will require some adjustments to fit your individual Lear45 cockpit project.  Use this drawing as a guide to build your own custom trim panels.

Additional Trim Panel Development coming soon!

 

 

 

 

HARDWARE / OTHER MISC PARTS FILES:

Project45 AML LED Mods

AML LED Mods v2.0

The AML LED Mods are the perfect solution to the AML21 switches with incandescent bulb sockets!  There are seventy AML21 switches in the LJ45 sim and ALL of them require at least one 3mm LED light inside it.  This AML LED Mod solution solves that problem by soldering the two legs of the LED to the AML LED Mod.  Then it simply plugs into the incandescent bulb socket!

Additionally, there are several AML21 switches that require two 3mm LED lights.  Packing two LEDs into a space designed for only one bulb is a little tricky but it has been resolved as well.  The solution is to solder the two positive legs onto the AML LED Mod and then group the two ground legs.  A carefully drilled hole through the bottom of the AML21 switch is needed for the grouped ground. 

Find more information about the AML LED Mods HERE

Project45 Dzus Fastener Replicas

DZUS Fastener Replicas v2.0

The DZUS Fastener Replicas are a great solution if you are looking for the real look without the real locking mechanism.  In our case, most of the panels that use real DZUS fasteners are on the TQ Pedestal and the Center Pedestal.  In these areas we are using .5″ Birch wood and there is no room for DZUS rails to be installed.

The files within the folder below are to make a single DZUS replica, a pack of three or a pack of six DZUS replicas.  Our LJ45 sim projects require a total of 60 DZUS Replicas.  After the DZUS Replicas are cut, you will need to shape the top edges with a Dremel tool to give them their curved edge look.

Find more information about the DZUS Fasteners HERE

Project45 Hobbs Panel

Hobbs Panel v2.0

The Hobbs Panel is a very simple panel to cut making it another great place to start if you are looking to cut all of your own panels using these files.  It is basically just a single backer that the Hobbs hour meter mounts into.

Find more information about the Hobbs Panel HERE

Project45 Landing Gear Knob

Landing Gear Knob v2.0

The Landing Gear Knob is made of Nylon and requires a Lathe to make the dual grooves around the edge.  Additionally, a router is needed to add the .25″ radial edge on both side of the knob and a CNC is used to cut the internal finger pockets on both sides. 

The knobs are available in the Hangar Products page.
