Building for VR only

[dwizle81]

Great job planning on using your plans to build my own UFC.
My issue I only fly in VR so the displays and the backlight are a high priority for me
So can I build it without including those features will the buttons and switches still work?
or should I redo the PCB for an Arduino?

Hi, I can't think of any reason why operation would be changed if the displays and LEDs were omitted. Probably a bunch of other components can be removed as well. Good luck with the build.

a couple more questions
do you still have the part numbers for the 2 lower 8pin encoders you use seems the BOM is corrupted or compatible with digikey or https://easyeda.com/

As best I can tell, they are ALPS EC11E18244A5

Keep getting a compilation error using IDE 2.2.1

Compilation error: 'IotWebConfParameter' does not name a type; did you mean 'IotWebConfParameter_h'?

IotWebConf iotWebConf(apName, &dnsServer, &server, wifiInitialApPassword, CONFIG_VERSION);
IotWebConfParameter ipAddressParam("IP address", "ipAddress", ipAddressValue, STRING_LEN, "text", NULL, "10.1.1.48");
IotWebConfParameter gatewayParam("Gateway", "gateway", gatewayValue, STRING_LEN, "text", NULL, "10.1.1.1");
IotWebConfParameter netmaskParam("Subnet mask", "netmask", netmaskValue, STRING_LEN, "text", NULL, "255.255.255.0");

any ideas on how to fix??

I have not touched this code in a very long time. I do remember that IotWebConf package was a challenge because it kept changing, so it is possible, that it kept on moving after my last compilation. All I can suggest is to look at the documentation & examples for the level of the package you're using, and modify the source accordingly. I think trying to pick a historical level of the package which allows this to compile is probably going to take you longer.
