Dual flight control build

Once again, very nice, I like your work, please keep us updated with photos.
Best Regards

Thanks Geremy, coming from you that compliment is of the highest order. Progress is slow but I'll be sure to add photos as I get parts done. I'm working on a plan for the seats right now so hoping to be welding by the weekend : )

I have started work on the instruments that I won't be able to display on a LCD monitor. I have had Mike's book on building simulated aircraft instruments for years and finally feel like I might be able to actually build one. First of will be a simple flap gauge and hopefully a whiskey compass. This rendering is just a test to get a bit more familiar with Fusion 360.

Lots of time to sit and think about things but not much actual building time. I'm having a go at designing a rotary damper to try and get a better hydraulic feeling from my DIY controls. I have changed the design a fair bit since taking these renders but the overall idea is the same. If they work I'll post the results.

Very nice Shawn.

Thanks Mitch, I'll be surprised if it ever gets built but I'm having a great time designing parts with Fusion 360. Far sight better than what I used to use for aircraft in Fs9.
