OK..... I'll admit it...... a homebrew cockpit simulator is in the offing sometime in the next year.  Yeah... I'm a sick puppy  Wink.  I WILL say that it won't look like a faithful replica of a 474 though Grin.

So.... I am now looking for a switch I will need for some of the avionics I am planning.  I need a double pole, single throw switch, preferably a rocker type, with ONE contact set being momentary...and the other contact set being a NO or NC setup that stays ON or OFF until the switch is put into the other condition.

Hope that was clear  Smiley.

Operation...... you push the rocker from OFF to ON.  One set of contacts closes momentarily and then opens again.  The other set of contacts goes to the ON position and stays that way.  Upon switching the rocker from ON to OFF.... the one set does the momentary closure again...and the other set ges to OFF and stays there.

I know that I can do this with a latching relay circuit and such........ but I am HOPING that there is a switch out there in the world that has this function built right in.  The less circuit board designing and wiring I have to do the more I'll be flying  Wink.

Appreciate any help someone might have.


best,
