I found these in Ace Hardware. "Gun screws" seemed expensive but I'll look further.

"This is not a flight sim built for pit builders" really?? HELIOS is outstanding, I bought it before it went freeware, but it stopped being developed 2 years ago all i asked was if there was any info on anything new from Ed on the gauge export side I had missed

Some trimming and little tweaking to do, bezel for the flaps gauge, panel with switches for CMSP, arrestor hook lever to go in, couple of switch panels above 3rd MFCD and AHCP, hide the wiring, DO the wiring the most excellent gauge bezels were from agrasyuk here on DCS, free plug for a good guy

actual progress!!! parts fitting

"I'm not really sure why one does not yet exist. Team clearly should see a need for one " Yup, you said it

has there been any indication that this will be easier for pit builders? more universal across modules ?

still for sale?

Thanks to Capt Zeen :thumbup:, my next pit gauge overlay has to be the F-15C I dont want to have a INOP msg over my pit RWR if I can avoid it

can i buy a non expiring beta?....for a fellow brit ;)

Thanks LynxDK, keeping an eye on your site

Anyone know of a member making and selling side console panels? preferably A-10C or another airframe as I'm not building a replica

6th time's the charm....

layered, router'd MDF

Engage reverse..... most expensive/time consuming template evar!

OUTSTANDING!! Thank you

In keeping with the "multi-role" pit. Sunk the Saitek TQ to be the "civie" prop and mixture levers and modified the far right lever to (roughly) resemble the F-14 manual wing sweep ctrl. told you it would be slow progress.......

thanks man, its not a kneeknocker anymore....almost a pudknocker :lol: left tub wired with a usb hub and #2 groovy game gear, just need to throw more switches at it, saitek radio panel, sink the saitek TQ so it sits lower and need to try some staple and glue upholstery for the seat

A Quick car dash made of offcuts, need to make mounting brackets and clean it up, round the corners etc, good sunday morning spent with a tenon saw and a drill Cessna Trim wheel...Spitfire style positioning :D

still not fully wired, but at least I'm flying :pilotfly: Running CoD with virtual gauges Used the unused monitor support to mount the control stick and the crackle paint I used on the glare shield didn't come out as i had expected, not MIL Spec but then nor is wood grain :doh:

started paint, trying satin grey instead of flat grey primer and tried my hand at "weathering" with a silver ink art pen

blow the dash apart to paint. print out decals/labels, wiring loom, debug. then start all over again with both side consoles. I can still see the starting line, but without your help I'd still be cutting out the pit parts from ply:thumbup:

thanks man, still a ways to go

First time its all been bolted together properly. Still got lot of edge clean up to go, then wiring loom, then paint.....then repeat it all again, twice, for the side consoles. My F-14 Pilot Display Ctrl Panel
