Stevos758 Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Looking for reference documents referring to the size of all of the trim wheels. Facebook Ripp's Garage Tech LLC
WildBillKelsoe Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 me too.. I'm in the first steps of creating a teensy 2.0 trim box per tjhowse's method. AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
Stevos758 Posted March 7, 2014 Author Posted March 7, 2014 Here is a link to his thing verse models. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:69460 I just guessed when I modeled mine and they turned out ok for what I am doing. Facebook Ripp's Garage Tech LLC
Zilch Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 It's possible that I'm going to a museum soon (within two weeks) that has access to a P-51 cockpit. If you want, I can *try* to get some measurements from the real plane, if that'll work for you. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Zilch79's YouTube Channel:

WildBillKelsoe Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Hey zilch, take a caliper with you and record the stick length from floor to pickle button and a measuring tape. Or ask the museum guide.. AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower.

WildBillKelsoe Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 Still take heavy photos inside the cockpit and outside of this sexy and classy Cadillac of the skies!

Zilch Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 (edited) Still take heavy photos inside the cockpit and outside of this sexy and classy Cadillac of the skies! I think I'm going to try to head there tomorrow. If you're interested, they have a pair of MiG-15's, a MiG-21, an F-86, and that's it for current DCS planes. The two-slot MiG-15 and the MiG-21 have open cockpits, as does the P-51, unless they've changed something since I visited last. Also of interest is a P-40, a Corsair, Avenger, T-33, T-28, T-38, FJ Fury and a bunch of other stuff. I'll take as much as I can get. The MiG-21 is from the GDR and seems to be a dedicated missile platform. There is no gun and the cockpit is dominated by a large radar scope near where the gunsight is, if I remember right. It seemed like it would obstruct forward vision. I'll get some more footage of it. EDIT: I haven't forgotten you guys, but haven't had time to go back to the museum these last weeks. Hopefully I'll have an album posted soon. Edited January 16, 2015 by Zilch Update. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Zilch79's YouTube Channel:
Zilch Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Here are my pictures. Unfortunately, the cockpit was roped off so I couldn't get in there. However, I have some pics from a previous trip so you can get the idea. What a lovely plane! http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2313846#post2313846 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Zilch79's YouTube Channel:
