Hello guys. i was thinking about starting this thread to gather all the stores that sell simulator parts for the A10c. I found some but i don't know the reputation on these stores

 

First we have

Simparts.de (Not many panels, Dutch company. They have some gauges for the a10c)

i-jetpilot.de (Some nice panels but expensive. Dutch company Sells also parts for KA50 and other fighters)

 

Do anybody have other stores they know about? post them here.

That is crazy, make it yourself for a fraction of the cost.

You are correct that a person building their own panels will need the CNC and a laser at a significant cost.

 

On the other hand none of the companies selling panels are using original mil spec switches or Accurate dimensions. Just from the pictures I could point out problem areas of the design on the IJettpilot site.Their prices on the panels with out any hard ware is about twice what I would consider a reasonable price if their parts were with in a spec. So that one could add real panels if found.

CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.

With all the research and devopment I have put into my own cockpit and the level of detail and accuracy I tried to maintained, I can only laugh at the price they set for that MIP. They must feel it's worth it. Yes, there is a tremendous amount of effort put forward to create this yet it is wrong on so many levels. I doubt if that much thought was put into it's development.

 

To justify this selling price I would want to see panels that actually mimic a real A10 instead of copies that poorly reflect the original. I would also expect no empty spaces. And I would want to see working gauges where all actually have pointers and displays not left out. BTW, what's with the giant lag bolts:doh:

 

But understand my critism is only with respect to the asking price. I have great respect for all that would attempt such a project. We all have our own level of skills and available tools which affect the final outcome? In this case I guess they figured charging minimum wage for labour just wasn't enough.:lol:
