Do these photos help?
I have some more detail photos from other places around the cockpit in https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... drive_link

Hey Arne,
I made a lot of photos today with cm scales and sended him the link privatly. Also from all other parts wich could be changed.
I thinks he should have the information he needs. And if something is missing I can get some new photos.

I saw that my newer JS3 has some changes in the inside:
I have more carbon fiber and some handles (like water ballast) had changed.

- moving fuses to the lower middle part of panel (like on my real life JS3 picture) to have more useful room on the panel
Done
- use state of the art gauges with a helpful layout (like mine :D ), it could be discussed to use a AHRS instead of S10(Hawk wind)/DCU (RES Control Unit), other 18m gliders have AHRS as standard in C3. The LX9070 AHRS would be my preferd choice, but actually it does not work.
AHRS is available in the LX9070 now. Won't add the physical gauge.
- change colors on the cockpit.dds to real life delivery (i recreated it in my Condor screenshots)
- green trim butto (see picutures of Arne)
- more orange release handle
- darker blue, leather airbrake handle + black leather flap handle
- panel colour to real life panel
- upper sides of the cockpit are more a middle toned grey
Trim button, release handle, airbrake and flap handle are done. I left the panel in the original colour but made it easy to change in the cockpit texture.
- new position of bug wiper switch, and also reposition of other switches in a smaller real life size
Done
- right side control panel for heaters and rudder pedal adjustment: make them like the actual state with only pedal switch
Left them in the original state as that panel comes straight out of the maintenance manual. I guess the heated pedals are an optional extra.

I further:

- Updated the textures of the cockpit interiour
- Fixed some small things that were bothering me

Thanks a lot Wiek! Look forward to see the result :-)

Just a small point:

They originally intended for that, but no glider was actually delievered with (functioning) pedal heat in that position. I actually have pedal heat in mine, but they put the switch in the instrument panel.

If I keep it like this, there is more space on the panel for instruments though

Thank you very much :)
From an insider regarding the heat panel:
The pedal heat is no more option by Jonker. So every new JS3 has it like in my pictures I send to Wiek (also without switch on the panel).
I am looking forward the update :)
