Re: Why Futaba MA Switches Go Linear

One other thing I was curious about is why the switches on my Leading Edge Futaba board are so nice.

Macro pad without software

Hi everyone. I am looking for a macro pad or programmable keypad to use at my work, but I can't install any software on my work computer so I need to find one that does all of its stuff internally without any extra computer software required.
