TRC472A Switches Board

The TRC472A Switches board fits directly onto the TRC472 panel. It is recognized by the Simkits Gauge software as the Cessna 172 Skyhawk Switches.

The picture shows the PCB from the front side and from the back side.

The PCB includes all switches and the connection for the Tank Switch, Fuel Switch-OFF and Handbrake.

Apart from the 17 assigned switches, an additional 15 inputs are available as free programmable/assignable inputs in Windows and Microsoft Flight Simulator FSX and Lockheed Martin Prepar3d.
