Beautiful as usual from you, Legolas

 

I've followed your work in Viperpits and I'm glad you're building an A-10C cockpit. We can share plans and techniques

 

Keep up the good work!

My rig specs:

Intel Core i7 4770 @3.4Ghz // Corsair 16GB DDR3 // MoBo Asus Z87K // HDD 1TB 7200RPM // eVGA Nvidia GTX 760GT 2GB DDR5 // LG 3D 47" 1920x1080 // Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS // Saitek Combat Pro Pedals // Thrustmaster MFD Cougar pack // PS3 Eye + FTNOIR

Putting A-10 ejection handles on a F-16 style ACES II does not make it for an A-10.:doh:

 

Lol...I thought the same... There are more differences like seat back angle

My rig specs:

Intel Core i7 4770 @3.4Ghz // Corsair 16GB DDR3 // MoBo Asus Z87K // HDD 1TB 7200RPM // eVGA Nvidia GTX 760GT 2GB DDR5 // LG 3D 47" 1920x1080 // Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS // Saitek Combat Pro Pedals // Thrustmaster MFD Cougar pack // PS3 Eye + FTNOIR

My drawing of aluminum ACES II finally completed.

ACESII for the F16 and for F15/A10 has different angles between the seatpad and seat back. The seatpad on your drawing looks too high in the knee support section. The seat will be very uncomfortable for the pilot.

Impressive model!

Isn't the cockpit in the picture in your first post yours?

I'll stay tuned to see your progress.

For the Case’s drawings I am very satisfied, by calculating the rate of 1mm aluminum sheet bending, It does not require stamping and beat, only bent can be manufactured.

 

Of course, its shape might have some differences with the real case, however, for the construction of HomeCock, I think this is a reasonable choice, I hope this method useful to you.

OK...gotta ask

 

Where are you getting your dimensions to draw them from?

 

With the incredible work you're doing, I'm starting to wonder if you've got an F-16 secretly parked in your garage...

 

:)

 

Hi Stang, some online to share pictures, if you pay attention, they contain some sizes, such as the size of the rudder pedal bracket size ... and so on, then you can be based these to inferred other sizes. :book:

 

This is I drew my first model of rudder in the 2015 year.

Then continue, I like a sculptor, constantly modifying them, little by little increase, decrease a little bit, so it is more perfect. :music_whistling:

Their size not really of size, but I think this is not important, we just play as long as he looks cool, you say? :joystick:
