Great work, I have only one suggestion. The spanner is a bit oversized compared to the other graphics, can you shrink it a few pixels

OK, I made it one pixel shorter on each end.
Is it better?

Hi FDR

I don't try to be sinical about you answer, which I have to take that you don't agree. That is fine.
However I have done my share of UI designs, thus my comment. If you take the yellow/grey balance/ratio of the typical icon on the screen, Safe mode(Parachute) is a good example, the spanner is over-sized with much smaller border areas than the others. I would shrink it at least 10%.

Sorry, if my answer seemed cynical, it wasn't meant to be.

I really shrinked it one-one pixel, and it indeed made a difference, you can compare it if you put them beside each other. After all the whole picture is only 48x47, so two pixels make a difference.

Now I see you want it to be even smaller, but then the other ones (like the clock, swash, etc) would be too big...

I've pushed it to my repo and sent a pull request to PB...

I've reordered the menu icons too...

...or do you mean, that you don't have a DEVO8?

I don't like very much the clock , I would prefer a timer like this for example :

And also, may be you can "zoom" on the switches radio (switches are to small ,radio is to big) ...

I'm a bit confused...

I would call the first as black on grey, and the second as white on black, so which one is the black on white?
Sorry for my english, but would you specify is it the fist one or the second?

For me the second look better. But some of the lines (shadow servo arms, tx) seem to be too thin.
Can you add the files so we can try them on the real screen?

I don't really like the clock either. I wanted to draw a stopwatch too, but was too lazy to do that so far. (This clock was on PB's original...)
One argument on the current clock, that it can alarm, unlike a stopwatch...

OK, later I will try to draw a closer part of the tx with the switches, I'm just worried, that it won't be recognizable...

Yep, the greys are wicked.
They look good on my home notebook with a calibrated display, but fade in too much at work...
They depend too much on the lightness/contrast/gamma settings...

I'll post the files after work.

Maybe you could reduce it to the typical switch instead?

Well, that was on PB's original icon: a generic switch.
Do you recognize it?

Yes, of course. I thought something like this type of switch what I can find on the tx and you have a few of them on your picture at the edge of the tx...
I would draw one but my abilities in designing are quite poor (look at this):

very good, I like a lot too. it is clearer for dual-rate

I was used to seeing the alarm clock but is also well

good job

I do not understand everything about the standard mode / Advanced mode.

if I understand correctly, a model must be created in either simplified or advanced in the configuration files are not compatible, is that correct?

we can not take a model created by another user in simplified mode and advanced mode rework?
