Peter_Pilot Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 (edited) Hi All, I am planning to take my home made helicopter controls to the flight simulator convention at the Helicopter Museum, Weston Super Mare, UK on the weekend 22/23 July 2017. As well as flight sims there is also drone racing. http://www.helicoptermuseum.co.uk/drone.htm I will be running DCS World and have the Ka-50, UH-1, Mi-8 and Gazelle modules installed. My collective lever doubles as a throttle so I can also run my fixed wing modules: Mig 21, Mig 15, Sabre, A-10C, Spitfire IX, Bf109, Fw190, P-51D & FC3 modules F-15C, Su-27, A-10A, Su-25. 'Hope to see some forum members there, come along and have a go. All the best, Pete. https://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=81400&d=1368347191 Edited July 16, 2017 by Peter_Pilot 2
Yurgon Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 I'd love to check that out if I was a little closer. ;) Have fun and I hope you'll meet a lot of community members! :thumbup:
Peter_Pilot Posted July 16, 2017 Author Posted July 16, 2017 Thanks Yurgon, it was fun the last time I took my sim in 2012, I am sure it will be this time. Pete.
molevitch Posted July 17, 2017 Posted July 17, 2017 Hmmm, I was planning to visit anyway, to see their Mi-24. And on 22nd I will be halfway there, so I think I will make my way to Weston on 23rd, family in tow. 1 SCAN Intel Core i9 10850K "Comet Lake", 32GB DDR4, 10GB NVIDIA RTX 3080, HP Reverb G2.

Peter_Pilot Posted July 24, 2017 Author Posted July 24, 2017 Hi All, I went to the Flight Sim Convention at the Helicopter Museum on Saturday and had a good day, lots of people had a go on my setup. Many positive comments and great interest from others hoping to build similar setups. Apologies to anyone who came on Sunday because I wasn't able to be there. My nearest and dearest injured her hand and the local hospital couldn't deal with it and I had to drive her to Bristol. Her hand should heal but it meant I missed half the show. Best wishes, Pete.
