    What should I do?

    Hi all

    Well I've taken the plundge and ordered the MIP. Going to build my own mip stand, glareshield, pedestal, shell, seats with help from a friend.

    I've also made quite a large order from opencockpits consisting of;

    1 x ATC 737 module p&p
    1 x COM 737 module p&p
    1 x EFIS-737 (mounted & with box)
    1 x MCP 737NG (without box)
    1 x NAV 737 module p&p
    1 x Landing gear lever B737
    1 x USB servo motors card
    1 x 737 Flaps Gauge

    Robotshop ordered:

    1 x Phidget card

    I am left with a about £1150.

    I have yet to purchase leo bodnar's BUOX boards.

    What should I purchase next, hardware wise? That's going to leave me with say £100-£200 to spend on wood.

    EDIT** I'd like to get the 737 replica throttle but I don't think I have enough to buy it.

    Thanks

    Re: What should I do?

    Wow!!thats quite a start of a cockpit build.If i were you i would start with the
    things i already bought.I mean do you really have to buy more before you
    finished ex. mip and glare?

    Ive been building mine for over two year's now and still not sure how the finished result will look like,that's the beauty of this hobby.Take your time and dont rush...enjoy every second of your build.
    Maybe you can afford a decent throttle or overhead when done with base structure

    Take care/lenne
