BUILD NOTES
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 made to order, assembled by hand and intended only for flight simulation; it is not an aircraft-certified component.
