Mirage 2000 cockpit size

[matbog]

This my first post on Ed forum so: Hi guys!!!:baby:

 

I am a french simmer and with the new Mirage 2000 from Razbam i wanted to build a 2000C cockpit.

I contacted the EALC association (http://www.ealc.fr/) who restores some military french aircraft and his president kindly allows me to spend an entire afternoon in the cockpit of his Mirage 2000B whose front place is the same than the one of the Mirage 2000C.

 

So I took some pictures and measurements and here it is :https://goo.gl/photos/LrhustESFDuX2LaR8

 

I unfortunately miss some measurements but...anyway.

 

I hope to see more and more 2000 cockpit in the future :thumbup:

[Cripple]

Thanks for that. I've never had a good look at the inside of a Mirage before...

 

Oh, someone better point out to the Americans that those dimensions are in millimetres. :P

[matbog]

Oh yes, good point, I forgot this detail, it is millimeters :)

We don't want another Mars Obiter do we? :D

 

Can you just imagine the engineering team when they realized what happened it? It's laughable (but really isn't).

Nice photos Matbog. The 2000 cockpit is quite cosy by the looks of it, almost as cosy as an A4. And a Mirage F1 in the corner of the hanger as well so I am sure someone is probably going to touch base with you soon :)

[matbog]

Thanks X93355.

 

For those who are interrested I share my 3D modelisation on Onshape https://www.onshape.com/

All you have to do is register and find my project by typing "Tableau de bord Mirage 2000C" (which means Mirage 2000C dashboard in french ;)) in the search field.

 

For those who are not so much interested here is a picture.

Hey mate there is a Mirage gate guardian in Adelaide, Aussies seem pretty laid back about stuff that isn't American (fkin ITAR).

 

I dont really know what models they operated but I do know a few people who may be able to get me access or (Australia is a big place ;-) ) get someone I know where there is a variant you are after into the cockpit.

 

I dont know if I can but happy to try if you can find any info on where ex aussie mirages are.

[matbog]

Thanks a lot for your proposal Mr_Burns, it is very kind of you.

I will let you know if I need any help.

[Hansolo]

Very nice pictures and measurements matbog. Thanks for sharing.

 

Cheers

Hans

I just discovered that there is no need to register to Onshape to see the 3D model, just click here: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/409d0213bc745f590aff401e/w/1e61ca9434e43d94050f5730/e/62977e51d210b423c703e0e7

Mate this is great info will the 3d model be able to be 3d printed ?

[matbog]

I don't know what is needed to be 3D printable so...i cant tell you. Sorry

[frogger]

ive used your measurements to make a quick mock up today , at first i thought there was some mistake as i felt like i was making a miniture aircraft but after looking at some footage and pictures i see the cockpit is tiny. so now ill need to source a 22inch lcd monitor for helios and that should handle the whole mip

 

cheers again

[matbog]

Yes it is really small indeed!!!

@frogger

 

You can export the parts as .stl files, those are 3d printable.

 

I use onshape to make my panels, you will probably need to cut the parts up to pieces though as most of them are to large for your average printer.

[VR-Hunter]

Thank you. I been thinking also about Mirage home cockpit. That is really helpful.

[dimebug]

based on the pictures, i've maid this today (only 3D rendering..).

 

 

[RAZBAM_ELMO]

Looking great man. It will be interesting to see how this turns out. BTW are you going for a single, triple or projection monitor

i maid it just for fun, no cockpit project yet, at least for myself.

[matbog]

Wouaw, so nice dimebug!!!!

[CrashO]

Nice!

Was looking for some good measurements a few weeks ago. As I wanted to replicate the PCA. These will help, alot !

That's awesome :thumbup:

 

Good job man.

If the question is addressed to me, my pit has three monitors.

Here is a picture to show you where I am.

Hope you like it!

Great job!

Would love to see some M2000C pits
