F-14 ARC-159 + ARC-182 Combo Panel for DCS World

Processing time: 1–3 weeks

“Excellent build quality. Great tactile feel... Job well done!” — Matt, Etsy buyer

Made to order for DCS World, this F-14 combo integrates ARC-159 UHF radio and ARC-182 radio controls into one shared enclosure. Both physical panels operate together through one USB connection, reducing cabling while preserving the intended cockpit workflow.

BEST FOR
• F-14 Tomcat pilots who want both radio panels in one compact unit
• Desktop setups and home cockpits with limited USB ports or mounting space
• Builders who prefer a combined hardware section instead of two standalone units

MAIN FEATURES
• ARC-159 UHF and ARC-182 radio functions in one enclosure
• One USB connection for the complete combo
• Integrated USB HID controller electronics
• Functional switches, buttons, knobs and encoders
• Illuminated ARC frequency display and applicable status/feedback lighting

LIGHTING AND BACKLIGHTING
The ARC frequency display and applicable status/feedback lights are illuminated. The engraved panel legends are not backlit.

SOFTWARE AND COMPATIBILITY
Designed for DCS World and the DCS F-14 Tomcat module. The physical inputs operate as a USB HID controller. SkyDefender software is required for the illuminated display, feedback/status lights and other synchronized functions. Instructions and downloads: Software & Documentation

BUILD NOTES
The two physical panels share one enclosure and function as one USB device. One ARC-182 rotary control is implemented with an encoder instead of the original aircraft-type rotary switch because a matching switch is not commercially available. The encoder preserves the intended control logic in DCS. Each unit is assembled by hand and is intended only for flight simulation; it is not an aircraft-certified component.
