    Re: Work in progress MIP

    Hi Steve,
    Very nice work there. A question if I may. Is there enough room to have the yoke in the full forward position and still turn it without hitting the OBS knobs?

    Steve1970,
    Hello, I have a small room for my sim pit too but now that the projector industry has come out with whats called a short throw projector
    you can have a large image displayed at a very short distance! My room is only 11' by 11" so I will be able to mount the projector from only 3 ft away
    and will be able to get an 80" inch display. something to consider!

    Steve, your panel looks awesome. I'm trying to do something similar. Can you give more details about the rings for the instruments? Is that plastic something you mold or is it a pipe you cut? I'm having a hard time finding plastic pipe with an outer diameter of 79 mm (3-1/8") for the standard size of large instruments.

    Thanks,
    Gabriel

    Hey Steve!

    That looks really great.

    Can you post some more details about the cowl? I'm facing a similar problem and this solution looks very promising.

    Kind regards,
    Tim

    Re: Work in progress MIP

    woww mate (Steve).. what a cockpit!! just on the spot, perfect!
    wondering what type of hardware you've use for the knobs (rotary)? are they simple to configure on the FSUIPC? also looking to use Project Magenta to emulate the gauges..
    do you have the project in CAD? would you mind sharing more info about your setup? struggling to find more information on how to configure rotary and switches..

    thanks man.. well done!!
