Alex_rcpilot Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 Well I guess this sorta appropriate then. Sorry couldn't resist. A lot has changed since Mao, I've got no problem with him:). It seems that his successors are getting more irritating nowadays, in some manner. Anyway, I'm with them in the big picture, but somehow I find their ruling style utterly naive and ridiculous. Well let's talk about it over TS or IM, we don't want the forum in trouble.:music_whistling:
HitchHikingFlatlander Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 Srry Alex just joking, I'm not that ignorant just like to have fun with people! Good thing you don't live in the Soviet Union like the days of old. In soviet Russia you don't drive car, car drives you! I totally understand with the system I think a lot of good can come from it but I also believe the same about our system (same with the bad respectively in both cases). But right Trigger's the man here and we're going way off topic but I still hold my picture as relevant if not funny! LOL And what happened to the picture? Was it removed, NP either way but usually theres a note..... http://dcs-mercenaries.com/ USA Squad
Triggerhappy69 Posted September 20, 2009 Author Posted September 20, 2009 He He.. It's such fun to see you guys digress like this..! I didn't want to interfear and maybe break your line of thought.. I've been real busy (actually I haven't been as effective as I wanted) getting packed and ready to move to Stavanger. All the time I have spent in my cockpit room has been focused on learing to operate the CnC mill. And it's quite clear to me that I need to build another one ASAP.! A router this time, with 400x500mm working area.. I have got the rough scetch done, and will make it out of 10mm Aluminum plates. .. picture? If you are referring to the picture of chairman Mao, it's still here on my screen.. I don't see why it should be removed? He seems to ba having a real good time there..! Ps. Hey Alex..! What do think..? About Karia I mean..!? He He.. Cool girl or what? you just 'gotta love these northern girls.. They are so ... primal..! Rrrrr.. "But (504)Brewber said they were'nt friendly.. So I took'em out.!" [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
HitchHikingFlatlander Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 OK Cool I just couldn't see it earlier! Nobody ROFLMAO's quite like him! http://dcs-mercenaries.com/ USA Squad
Alex_rcpilot Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 Srry Alex just joking, I'm not that ignorant just like to have fun with people! Don't get me wrong, man. Why appologize? I knew you were just kidding, and I like doing the same, it's just fun. Try to picture a guy with a firm look of unconditional communism ideal on his face, I'm not that kinda person. I know how to reason. But we also know that some forums don't encourage discussions on politics, religions, etc. That's why I suggested that we talk about these issues elsewhere. We all have access to the same TS server, so the discussion will live on if it's worth carrying on.:thumbup: And what happened to the picture? Was it removed, NP either way but usually theres a note..... Don't worry about the picture, I deleted it from the quote, simply in order to minimize the size of my reply.
Alex_rcpilot Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 .. picture? If you are referring to the picture of chairman Mao, it's still here on my screen.. I don't see why it should be removed? He seems to ba having a real good time there..! I can still see that image from here as well. I think Hitch was referring to the absence of the same image from my reply, he might have thought it was because it didn't show up on my screen in the first place, while in fact it did. Correct me if I got that part wrong, Hitch.:thumbup: Ps. Hey Alex..! What do think..? About Karia I mean..!? He He.. Cool girl or what? you just 'gotta love these northern girls.. They are so ... primal..! Rrrrr.. What do I think? Man! What did I say? "SHE'S GORGEOUS!!", and I mean it. She got pretty eyes...and everything.:D
Alex_rcpilot Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 I just checked my hotmail and didn't see your schematics. What's it about? The amplifier? How long does it take you to order all those components and CNC carve the new PCB? I'm thinking maybe I can fabricate the whole stuff, test it and prepare a dozen additional components and send to Norway altogether.
Alex_rcpilot Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 OK Cool I just couldn't see it earlier! Nobody ROFLMAO's quite like him! oops, I guess I was wrong, 2 replies above, lol.
HitchHikingFlatlander Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 (edited) LOL no worries Alex, now if they only made Kung Mao Shrimp! LOL, Wait they probably do! realy cool as always ! The Chairman Mao discussion or Triggers pit lmao (no pun intended)! Edited September 21, 2009 by HitchHikingFlatlander http://dcs-mercenaries.com/ USA Squad
Alex_rcpilot Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 LOL no worries Alex, now if they only made Kung Mao Shrimp! LOL, Wait they probably do! If "M" and "P" are next to each other on the keyboard, there's a good chance it'd happen earlier than expected.:D

Alex_rcpilot Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 (edited) Trigger, Why you don't use your CNC to make PCB? Sokol1_Br Funny you should say that, he was talking with me about PCB Gerber files just a couple of days ago. He will do it. Edited September 24, 2009 by Alex_rcpilot
Triggerhappy69 Posted September 25, 2009 Author Posted September 25, 2009 Funny you should say that, he was talking with me about PCB Gerber files just a couple of days ago. He will do it. Yes I will..!:thumbup: I just got new components to build 5 new FFB amplifiers. And this time I'll do the pre power-up testing with you Alex..! And as soon as I either get the gerber file, or make it myself, I'll be cnc'ing the pcb's.. "But (504)Brewber said they were'nt friendly.. So I took'em out.!" [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Alex_rcpilot Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 I presume you got my message. I'll be offline till october. I'm gonna start working on it soon as I settle down at the new house. Got kinda messy here.

HitchHikingFlatlander Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 I think he mentioned a while back that he was moving. I miss his updates too, hes really got some great ideas and skills to share! http://dcs-mercenaries.com/ USA Squad
Jocman Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Some thoughts arround this. AND there's a lot of old Sun-Com sticks arround to.. I have the adress to the guy who ran Thrustmaster here in norway. And he has a bunch of old Sun-Com and Thrustmaster sticks in stock still.. AND spareparts for both of them.. If you are interrested I'll give you the adress?:joystick: Hi Trigger, Jocman here. Currently running for my cockpit (and stealing some of your excellent solutions....) I'd be interesting in contact this guy (I was going to make a fiber glass copy of my Cougar, but finding a Suncom Talon to hack is a better solution)... Can you provide the address?

Triggerhappy69 Posted February 17, 2010 Author Posted February 17, 2010 (edited) I'm Back..! Hi Trigger, Jocman here. Currently running for my cockpit (and stealing some of your excellent solutions....) I'd be interesting in contact this guy (I was going to make a fiber glass copy of my Cougar, but finding a Suncom Talon to hack is a better solution)... Can you provide the address? Greetings and congratulations for your job Jocman Thanx man..!:) It's been a while now since I have been able to update this post. Mostly since my moving and starting a new job took ALL of my attention for a while. But now (read as "yesterday") I got my new cockpit building room sorted, and I'm back on track again.. Jocman, if you leave Stonehard a message at this link: http://www.computerpartner.no/shop/catalog/contact_us.php?osCsid=54629dccdb53c6aa991cd15221125462 He'll get back to you pretty quick.! I'll be sure to let him know when I talk to him on the phone later. Lots'a things has happened in these few months since my last update. I had the joyfull experience of having two hours in a professional Super Puma simulator, and another two on a Sikorsky Seaking simulator.! And not only was it PURE FUN, but it made me re-think the HOCAS mechanics all together. First the Super Puma: A bit of an "out there" landing..? On approach to Stavanger Airport Sola (the next second one of the instructors cut both my engines.. 'Cause they got annoyed that I didn't tell them beforehand that I actually knew how to fly the thing.. LoL.. I did however manage to autorotate the helicopter and land on the runway.) This is inside the Sikorsky Sea King simulator: RL helicopters use a combination of a mechanical spring loaded return setup combined with a magnetic brake assembly. As you see in the next image this combined setup runs paralell with the control rods that activate the swashplate/tailrotor This type setup compared to a FFB cyclic setup gives you a much more defined center. And that is precisely what I missed with my current MSSWFFB2 cyclic mod.! Also since it will require more pushrods and bellcrancs, it will give the Cyclic stick more mass.. And this was also noticed when I flew the Simulators at CHC as here in Stavanger (norway) www.chc.ca/training_simulators_super_puma.php. It just felt "heavier" if you catch my drift? Not less presice, but "heavier"..!? (dunno if this makes any sence to you at all..?) And yeah.. I almost forgot..! I have become a member of the 737NG Flightsim team at the Historic Air Museum Sola here in Stavanger. Currently my primary function is to see if I can find a way to get the FFB on our Professional, Fullsize, fully enclosed, beautifull, state of the art 737 NG cockpit up and running again. This sim used to be owned by Braathens SAFE (a national airline company), and used to educate and train the pilots. And Espen and the other guys have completely rebuild the interiour to the new NG version.. And I am building two new full metal 500mm X 500mm working area CNC routers. One for me, and the other is my delayed christmas gift to the museum. (even more pics here) Well that's all for now.. I've got a lot of images to upload and post..!

Gadroc Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 Welcome back!! You're work was an inspiration to start some of mine. I'm very interested in the cyclic as well. I've also though about a mechanical trimmer.
rocketeer Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 Welcome back Trigger! Looking forward to see you complete your pit which is already amazing as of now. My A10C cockpit thread
