Dan's Small Jet Simulator
Hi all!
Here are some updated pictures of my small jet simulator as of 8-27-13. I have completed the simulator room by enclosing it in black curtains so the sim experience is without any peripheral distractions. Enjoy the photos!

Re: Dan's Small Jet Simulator
That's an excellent little cockpit! Great job!
Care to post details on how you built the HUD?

Re: Dan's Small Jet Simulator
G,
Here's the final configuration of my HUD system after many tests (diagram below). The chain of components is 1. LCD projector (HUD image source), 2. Rear-screen projection material (adhered to a glass pane), 3. 45° front-surface mirror, 4. 1.75X convex lens (Collimator), 5. HUD glass (teleprompter glass). If you need source info for materials or materials dimensions let me know. I've added a few more pics as well for you.

Re: Dan's Small Jet Simulator
Geremy,
I am honored! As a new member I appreciate input from all. Would you know someone I could get into contact with to help reroute HUD graphics in X-Plane? Probably some Java work. The XHSI guys recommended adding to their code.
Thanks.
Dan
