Goblin Posted July 3, 2020 Posted July 3, 2020 I'll be taking more photos this week Any news to share, hegykc?
hegykc Posted July 3, 2020 Author Posted July 3, 2020 Waiting on components for the desktop mounts, so I can properly mount and film them. The virus pandemic is not helping. www.replikagear.com
Mr_Burns Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 Welcome beck Hegy! I hope you nail it this time, I loved your earlier ideas!
Goblin Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 The virus pandemic is not helping Pandemics rarely do... ;) That looks great! Interesting to see how you mount them on alu frame extrusions. I built my entire cockpit with those... What dimension are the alu frames in that mount? 2
shu77 Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 1/100 events rarely help I like the handle to tighten with a tist thread to fine tune, makes it look a lot more practical to convert back.

nervousenergy Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 I want that P-38 throttle. Badly. I don't even fly the P-38 (in IL2), but I need the sliders.

Joe Lighty Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 Good to see you back, hegykc - you are a master at 3D design and rendering. I too am looking forward to your F18 update.
hegykc Posted July 7, 2020 Author Posted July 7, 2020 No renders this time! Only compositing several nicely lit photos into single one. Dammit I have to start taking worse pictures :) 1 www.replikagear.com
shu77 Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 Those are awesome looking. I would love a P-51 to replace my logitech throttle quadrant.

sparkchaser2010 Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 Very authentic looking and I will definitely be interested if this works out. ASUS TUF GAMING X670E with AMD RYZEN 5 7600X, 64GB DDR4, ASUS TUF GAMING 4080 Pico 4, Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS Formally Known As: wpnssgt (google it )
fiddlinjim Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 FA18 Hornet Throttle Thruststmaster has an F18 Hornet replica joystick on the market and if WWII REPLIKA could make an F18 throttle with nearby switches, that would give us the ultimate realism in the cockpit.
Goblin Posted July 11, 2020 Posted July 11, 2020 I have to start taking worse pictures And maybe not use the same USB cable with different controllers ;)

Dropship Pilot Posted August 13, 2020 Posted August 13, 2020 Fantastic work! I'm not flying WWII planes but this stuff makes me want to.... Some constructive critizism: On the German throttle it should most probably read "größer" which translates to increase instead of "gröber" which translates to rougher. Looking forward to more of your stuff! Cheers, Stefan
rel4y Posted August 13, 2020 Posted August 13, 2020 Looking sexy! The manual prop pitch on the german throttle should say "größer" though, it is a "ß" (sharp s) and not a "b". :) Do you have a multi material FDM printer?

sniperpr1 Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 Wow!!! I have the thrustmaster cougar throttle for the F-16, but I saw one in your lineup, which looks very impressive. The wife's not going to be too happy, but, well...
Joe Lighty Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 It looks like some great quality work here - looking forward to further details.
tapi Posted October 4, 2020 Posted October 4, 2020 (edited) Your WWII trim wheel looks great! Would you tell us more about them? 1) Are they 1:1 to pots or they are geard to allow more precise movements? (thinking mainly about the big elevator trim wheel) 2) Is there any decent resistance while turning weels? (to prevent unwanted turning by accidentally touching the wheels)? More about the search for perfect trim wheels see this thread pls: How to make realistic WWII era trim wheels? Edited October 4, 2020 by tapi Smoke me a kipper I'll be back for breakfast!
