    Two updates:

    1. I finally finished the 4 air vents
    2. I got a Lua script to adjust the speed of the rotary encoders

    I installed the modified radio, still have to adjust some things. I let the AI do a test 😉

    Hi,

    I did some work on the panel. I added knobs to the rotary encoders and I tried to improve the radio stack. I would love to buy a complete stack from simkits or flight illusion but I don’t have the money. I still have the saitek radio panel but I don’t use it because it is far too big. So I thought why not resizing it. It took some time and a little bit of soldering but I think it looks much better now it is smaller. I will also mod my autopilot panel and perhaps also the switch panel, I want to remove the gear handle.

    The radio panel now looks like this:

    I have to put it in the panel, I will shoot another movie when it’s done. I also have to paint the rotary knobs black.

    Hi,

    I bought SAMSUNG LT32E310EW screen for the side monitors and the samsung-ue58j5200     for the front screen. They are 1080 (full HD) resolution and I use HDMI cables to connect them to my computer.

    You can get them here:

    They look like this

     

    Good luck!

    Hi Florian,

    I have two TV’s for the side view. They run at 1920×1080 which is enough for a clear view. Both TVs are Samsung, they were not expensive at all and they do a great job!

    See this movie https://youtu.be/2Y6SNV1xdRw

    Good luck with your plans!

    Hi Pedro,

    your panel looks great! I bought mine second hand. Its an old model, I don’t think it’s still available. My bezels are from cups which I cut of and painted black. They’re not great but are fine for now.

    This is a movie of my testflight.

     

    edit: I found out that the panel I have is still availabe and has a discount of about 200 USD.

    Hi Pedro,

    thank you very much! It works great.

    aligning screens with different size is difficult. My front screen is also not perfectly aligned. Use disproportial view helps, but you have to use maximum of 10 degrees. Otherwise the objects will look funny…..

    do you have a movie of your cockpit?

    Thanks Pedro, unfortunately I couldn’t find it. Also in Spadnet I couldn’t figure it out. I hope you can help me.

    I did my first flight with the new panel. It is still very WIP, I have to align the screen, the camera position was wrong but apart from that it feel way better than my previous setup.

    Hi,

    I tried mapping the heading bug to the rotary encoders. I though it was “OBS HSI up” or down, but it doesn’t work…..

    does anyone know what key I should map?

    Thanks!

    Today I did some testing with rotary encoders and a leo bodnar. It works, but still needs some fine tuning

    Some pictures of the progress I made:

    cockpit version 1

    It has two ipads, and the pro flight yoke. No trim wheel. The yoke is placed under the panel.

     

    cockpit version 2

     

    The yoke is replaced by a cessna yoke and the yoke has moved up so the it is more integrated in the panel. I use a 3rd ipad for the radios and a small monitor for the gps.

     

    cockpit version 3

    This is how it looks now. I improved the panel and extended the shaft of the yoke. I also added a bigger monitor for the instruments and radios.

    The work is slowly progressing, this mornig I let the AI do a first test flight. Still a lot of work to do, but I am happy with the result so far.

    This is the “hondje”, I put my car seat on it. Very cheap and easy solution;)

     

    Hondje

    And this is the seat, it’s from a Peugeot 307 sw. It is not hard to find and fits perfectly on the hondje.
