Avionics Bending: Mechanical Synchro Signal Producer (Part 3)

L-1011 Project - Mechanical Synchro Converter

Modeled the motor and synchro components to go into the design. Here is how I currently envision the device to work .... it's actually quite simple. Above is a block diagram of initial idea for the device.

Let's take an example of the Airspeed indicator:

1. The device initializes by rotating the assembly until Zero Detection is reached. We have now stablished the starting point. 
2. Indicated Airspeed (IAS) is sent from X-Plane via UDP across the Ethernet to the Beagle Bone Black (BBB). 
3. The BBB translates the airspeed into angular information around the airspeed indicator dial. 
4. The BBB instructs the Stepper Motor Controller to move a computed number of steps forward or backwards. 
5. The linked Synchro Transmitter takes a 26V 400Hz input sources and creates the 3 Phase Synchro output needed by the L-1011 Airspeed Indicator.
