Thanks for your kind words Matt! Still a lot of details that need to go in, but I should be able to start up and test fly the sim soon! :)
From Cold and Dark Cockpit to Take Off Procedures !!!
Been working on the side walls lately. It's going to take some filler and sanding before they're ready for paint!

I finished the interfacing of my Yoke mechanism this evening. Calibrated it and did my first flight since the rebuild. Both Yokes and TQ works really well. Still a bit of tweaking needs to be done to the flap lever calibration, but everything else works perfectly! I have to get on with the side walls and ceiling now. Pictures to come soon.
Eager to see that pictures...nice flights , happy landings !!!
Heres a few pics for you.
Been busy interfacing and assingning axes and buttons so I haven't really been building much lately. At least it's flyable now! :)

This sim is really coming to life now! Thanks for these fantastic updates, and i'm glad you found the parts you bought from us useful :)
All the best
Been busy setting everything up and making it work lately. Big mistake, I don't get any building done now! :P
The warping is very temporary. Need to do it more accurate

Only one projector for the visuals yet. Will probably stay that way for while too.
