Yeah jr-dub64......I dont get it....some folks just refuse to think outside of the box. They dont get that there is a certain satisfaction in designing and building things.....whatever those things are. It doesnt matter if it is power panels or toilet paper holders.....if you've decided that you can build one instead of buying....more power to you! As mentioned above, I also do not have a need for power panels anymore....I dont fly alot of glow stuff anymore and I've adapted my Sulivan Dynatron to LiPo so that i dont have any of those icky cords to get caught in a prop. I did build my own fuel pump assembly for my gassers because I didnt want to pay the premium that Jersey Modeller was charging for their setups. It's been going strong for several years now.
For the folks touting "Ohms Law".....yeah I know it.......I knew it when I went through the Naval Aviation Electronics course at NAS Memphis.....I knew it when I was working on A-4's in the USMC.....I knew it when I was maintaining the lighting control equipment for virtually all of the casinos in Las Vegas in the late 80's......I have known it for my almost 30 years of building, maintaining, installing theatrical and performance lighting control systems.....so I think I have enough experience to build a silly little power distribution panel. You dont need this type of experience to build this sort of thing.....you just need an idea and the dedication to see it to completion.
Good luck with your project whatever you decide to do. Happy flying!
