SimAvionics going up in price :-(

Hi,
for me there are 2 big benefits.
1: A compleat Server - Client System with a Server that has all logic. In PM you have to start the MCP if you need the MCP or PMSystems if you need the System Logic. With SA The MCP and Overhead Software are only Panels without own logic controled by the Server Application.

2: You have no Offsets given, you can enter in the clean file all Offsets how you need them. The first month i used the PM Offsets at my overhead.

Hi Stefan... Are there any offsets to control the N1 SET and SPD REF inputs? Also, is there any offset to control the FUEL FLOW reset/used switch?

That are all From the B737 MIP, that isn´t ready. But it will come, ask Mark for a timeline. For me personal are some other funktions are much more importent.

Well, I think they are all important. I for one am the type of person that likes to finish one thing first before going on to the next. I started building my pit by doing the MIP first. So before I move on to other things such as the EFIS/MCP/OVERHEAD, I would first like to finish the MIP completely.

By the looks of it, I will have to leave my MIP half way completed because half of the MIP functions aren't yet incorporated into SimAvionics.

I think it would be a good idea to have a SimAvionics forum here at Mycockpit.org. It's gut-wrenching waiting for a response at their website. Seeing how much more traffic we have here, I think it would be a good idea.

I think this is more up to them then us. BUT... You could start a thread dedicated to them!

Gotcha!

Does Simavionics have the Overhead logic implemented?

[sgaert]

Yes.
Captain version or higher.

Hey guys (hey Stefan)

It is a pity that they are pushing prices up. What they are in effect doing is putting the software at a further reach from the "normal" man in the street who wants to build a simpit or someone who is already building a simpit. I am busy getting the electronics together and have finished buidling the other 2 PCs i will be using - they are old but hopefully will do the job.

It makesgood business sense to reduce prices and allow MORE people to buy the product. Yeah Yeah Yeah R&D costs money - but rather be able to sell 500 copies of captain than 50 copies. Yeah profit margin will be lower BUT gross will be higher...

I have some decisions to make on this area yet PM is out (i think - cost) and Sim Avionics are teatering on the edge and I don't really know. For example $199 for me is nearly R2000 bucks. I can buy a new monitor or 4 times the electronics i will be starting with etc etc...

It makes one sit back and say well i wish i was rich so i can fulfill a dream to have a simulator LOL because ultimately it will only be the rich or single that can afford this

In that case you can think about a divorce
