Jeehell, are you building an Airbus cockpit with your software, and if so, how about a screenshot or two?

Well I kind of do and kind of don't

Right now I don't have enough room to build my dream (well I do have enough but the wife doesn't think so ) so building is sort of on standby. I did make an FCU with the left EFIS and a MCDU, which can be put on the desktop when I'm not programming (otherwise no place for the keyboard ), there are some pics in the gallery, and I recently bought an FDS throttle in the classifieds (the old plastic version, not the metal one), which I'm currently cleaning, greasing, tightening some screws etc...

We are currently searching for a new place right now, so a part of the deal was a few sq.ft to put a small pit somewhere (probably CPT side only), but I suspect it'll be a long road before I start building anything (my area ain't exactly the cheapest part of France when it comes to real estate ) And actually I really enjoy the programming part so far, so I'm not in such a hurry





MCDU is from opencockpits, with a really good quality/price ratio! and the FCU is made with frontplates from schaeffer. Everything is linked to my software with opencockpits cards.

I dont have pics of the throttle, I don't have much time to work on it these days, and it still needs some refurbishing and wiring.


On the software side, I'm almost done with VNAV, even if i'ts not perfect, I can achieve good results (sometimes less than 500ft of accurracy), maybe more on this soon, but first I have holidays in the west indies

That FCU is a beautiful job. Must look into your software a bit more deeply!

Thanks for the compliment

Cannot wait for your new version.
vasFMC crashed on my online flight one hour ago and I'm very annoyed by it...
I was unable to control the aircraft anymore and I had to cancel my flight...

Hi,

any idea when it will be released? As I said, cannot wait to implement it
Have to plan my cockpit work a few weeks in advance because I have to do a lot of work for university...

[jeehell]

Hopefully sometime during the next couple of days

Hello all,

The beta 7 of my A320 software is ready at last!!

Here what's new:

-Redesigned VNAV from scratch: calculation of the flight profile according to the OAT and weight. AS of now, TOC, TOD, SPD LIM and DECEL pseudo waypoints are calculated and displayed.
-Integrated SIOC support (other I/O can still be interfaced with FSUIPC, as before)
-Better AP/FD logic
-FBW enhanced, autotrim now functional (only if FBW is active)
-ND font size reduced
-GND HP, EXT PWR can be connected through the Add-on menu in FS
-Windows can be locked and stay on top
-A lot of smaller issues corrected

As usual, feel free to report any problems encountered, I'll do my best to correct those !
