  1. Good day its time for a stupid question!! Does the separate A-10A module integrate with DCS world ? I ask this because FC3 does not. And being out of sim due to hardware problem being a long time i would like to reaclimate myself with something lighter before taking on the A10C again! Thanks!!!
  2. After many month and seeking a reasonable amount and waiting for the grease to come (only in 3kg pack here in Brazil - E-bay saves!) I finally did it and it seems to have made a big diference... Dismantling and rebuilding is not hard.. just observe and take care and all will be fine.
  3. Well thats a business model.. a classic one. There s no sweet way to tell what comes below, sorry. But i think you exclude most of the people who have read affordable, all the people who were going modular, and all the people interested in only some instruments because they don t want a "pure" 1 only airframe cockpit. 10.000K anyway is the price of most cockpit out there, and the price of a harley. I hope i m not offending by stating things as they are, i really wish you good luck. I ll go the longer way DIY, even with way lower quality stuff and assembling.
  4. OH OK, i had looked on your site but it still at same waiting state :)
  5. Solution like the rift are over hyped for more complex simulators like DCS offer. Solution like the rift are in no way new and not much succefull. 1) Brain problem. Many people get motion sickness up to vomit, bieng dizzy and desoriented, this is not vented of course. But brain coordinate movement feedback + body position with our internal natural artificial horizon (AH) located in the ears. When you get drunk and uncoordinated its because brain isn t capable to process what the AH tell it quick enought due to alcohol messed the stuff up. So imagine cutting it totally, movement but no AH feedback at all, thats why people get sick. Some people get used to it others not at all, some are immune. Good test: backseat of a car, look up to the sky while car is speeding, is you get dizzy after some time, chences are you ll get sick. 2) Occulus rift doen t let you see external. Unless you totally master your hotas in all situation you ll fumble and probably get in trouble, miss target etc... If you need keyboard... forget it. 3)no Tactille feedback, unless someone create a 3d space grid way better than kinect (apple did it 100 times better than blocky kinect, but its not enought) + IR or other solution glove. You dont want to screw your flight by switching the wrong switch on the way to the other one or trigger someothing while adkusting body ache, pull the eject handle while your funbling for the beer can or trying to scratch your balls. And anyway nothing more satisfyng than flipping a switch, a button on a cockpit self made, no matter how shitty it looks. How interesting such device would be for the market ? not soon i can teel you. 4) Resolution still need a way, but that will probably be fixed first. You don t want to fly with ingame googles on most of the time. Occulus rift is good for races, hawks, racing sims, ROF like, maybe Sturmovik because all command will be on the HOTAS, assuming you have a good one, some action games, some RPG... Things have to work a way before it get good for us.
  6. Nice work. Went you go big screen 3 screen doesn t make much sense with track ir unles maybe you go 3 big screen but its too system taxing for few result. As for the slider, it s a good idea. I see you are left handed as me, altought i use the right hand for mouse. Isn t the trackball too high to be confortable for long sessions, working or playing other games ? Actually i was thinking of rail + hinge so the tble would get vertical and slide down so the mouse table would disapear. it would save lateral space, but i don t know if this solution exist (havent found it where i live anyway. Nice job on the cockpit.
  7. Awesome, i guess you have no price list of components yet...
  8. You re really the first guy to do this feat !!!! Many have tryed and until now all had fallen, nice to know someone arise. I always had found the saiteks stuff interesting but the company extremely lazy assed. Depending of what you can do this could maybe a nice "replacement" for real deal stuff (living outside US) and working in tandem with GADROC program it could be very nice becuase you could have more space onto your monitor. (this could interest FLIM also) What have you achieved ? And what do you think you can achieve ? Very interested.
  9. Fully restored.... I wouldn t bet on pulling for real the ejector handle...you probably got a roof above you!!
  10. I wishThrustmaster would stop being a bunch of ****ers and released some grips, so far the removable grip is SO Useless.
  11. SU 27 throttle ? Totally interested. The sit will be too expansive for me to import.
  12. GLider UK do you have a web page with product prices ?
  13. Damn i was a bit (a lot away) and now i find this awesome thread. Well i hope to have news when you start selling. I live in Brasil and CNC and other stuff are absolutely scarse and/or proibitive in price. I would love to buy ready stuff from time to time to have a nice cockpit. not aiming at a total realism, but something that can marry my warthong in quality and usefullness for space flight sims (WW2, Modern and Space)
