From which aircraft does this flap indicator originate?

From which aircraft does this flap indicator originate?

Dated 1990, Thompson-CSF, Jaeger F0052. 10 pole circular bayonet connector on rear. It's part number is 64883-602-1. I have used one in a home cockpit by simplifying the control electronics, but this is an untouched unit, and I'm curious from where it originated. Any help appreciated!

(It's about 55mm across the front. Interior illumination is incandescant, not LED)

VAT and ancient equipment

Hi. I'm a self employed lighting technician working in film and TV. I've been this way for 30 years, I'm VAT registered, and am looking at retiring. Over the years, I've bought some lighting control consoles. The first in 2004, and then more as time passed. I paid VAT on them all of course. I want to deregister from VAT. My accountant suggests I'd be liable for the original reclaimed VAT on each desk. This seems off, as the asset value of them today is a tiny fraction of their original cost. I'd welcome any thoughts on this matter!

Alternative to goggles for non FPV activity

Hi,

If I wanted to build a camera platform drone, where I wanted stability and smooth flight, ( probably using a DJI O4 VTX ) and I wanted to avoid goggles, what display options would I have? Is there something like the DJI N2 remote controller, or would I have to have a separate video receiver and display device?

I was tempted to buy an off the shelf solution, but as an engineer, who can write code and solder (!) I'm drawn to self build. I COULD just go and buy a Lito X1 and an RC N2, but that would be the easy way...

Thoughts welcome!
