Kirai Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Your work is totally amazing! I showed my little project with my flightchair in another thread and If I had seen this before I posted I would never had posted that cause mine looks like bird shit compared to yours. If I had the money and the knowledge I would build one right away but I lack both :P Good luck in the future and all kudos to you mate! Go Ugly Early

As long as you are flying it doesn't matter what it looks like =) It's always nice to see what other people are using to fly with =)
Schwinn Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Hey Bad on the "switch wall of death" where did you get the round switch guards? make them or buy them?

Flyingaustrich Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 @Bad CrC and the other Pitbuilders Can you give a little describtion what kind and how manny I/O cards are necessary for a Project like your's ( ..or Triggers:megalol: ) ? I follow the discussions as best as i can, but now I'm confused. :cry: Next days I'm starting the woodparts and I will follow up to a full functional Pit, time after time... . As seccond, are the warninglights at the top pannel working ?? Thanks in advance ! Flyingaustrich
Schwinn Posted July 23, 2009 Posted July 23, 2009 I am using 2 of Leo's cards to get my rudders, collective and cyclic working (his site is down atm for me)As well I will need to buy two of these. http://www.hagstromelectronics.com/products/ke_usb108.html
CAT_101st Posted July 25, 2009 Posted July 25, 2009 wish I culd aford to buy 2 of thoes.. I love my KE-72 Home built PC Win 10 Pro 64bit, MB ASUS Z170 WS, 6700K, EVGA 1080Ti Hybrid, 32GB DDR4 3200, Thermaltake 120x360 RAD, Custom built A-10C sim pit, TM WARTHOG HOTAS, Cougar MFD's, 3D printed UFC and Saitek rudders.

Flyingaustrich Posted July 25, 2009 Posted July 25, 2009 Looks like the Ke ones are the favorites ? Some guys use OpenCockpit Cards, too. I'm not to familiar with all the stuff but i read something about better output abilities, but not yet with BS ?? Thanks !!

Hagstrom is in the US so they are easier to get a hold of for us North Americans. If I lived over near you I would probably use a different solution.
CAT_101st Posted July 26, 2009 Posted July 26, 2009 Curintly BS does not have out put Lua. So the need for a IO card that suports this is not needed. If Bs becomes able to suport such a feature I will have to buy a OC card or somthing that of the same sort.

Flyingaustrich Posted July 26, 2009 Posted July 26, 2009 So it could be a good call to use OC Cards in hope DCS will expand the LUA abilities in the future. That means no data to gauges, ECRAN, Systemwarnings..ect. atm. ? And further all the lights that works are more or less on/off conditions ? Greetings
stelios2000 Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 [/url] can you please tell me the dimensions on 1,2 and 3 (in cm) ??? thank you very much indeed stelios
JG14_Smil Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 (edited) hello, I have something similar (three pics are in my gallery). 1 = 90 cm 2= 97.5 cm (approx) 3 = 18 cm right side console needs to be 76.5 (ish) cm. Edited July 27, 2009 by JG14_Smil whoops

JG14_Smil Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 yes, just came to my senses and returned to edit post. Sorry for the mistake.
BaD CrC Posted July 27, 2009 Author Posted July 27, 2009 Sorry guys. I was off in Spain for 10 days without internet connexion. Just came back today. Oakes: Thanks for the script. Now I need to identify each joystick among my 11 input devices. Guess it's gonna be fun. :D Kirai: My knowledge was around zero when I started this project back in January. But there are really good and gifted people on this forum who helped me a lot!! Schwinn: Hey hey. The round switch guards are... plastic bottle caps. Badoit red for the red ones. Coca cola zero for the black ones. :P:P:P:P Flyingaustrich: The easiest solution for me was to use 9 Leo Bodbard's USB cards for the input part. Black Shark is dead easy to configure with USB devices. For output, I bought some opencockpit parts: one mastercard + 1 output card + one segment display controller. But I am waiting for the SDK from ED to start the outputs implementation of my cockpit. So, no, the warninglights of the top panel are not functional yet. Stelios 2000: For my pit I got 1: about 93 cm, 2: 100 cm, 3: 18.5 cm. I guess JG14 Smil did meant 18 cm :P, not 180.:D https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden
Schwinn Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 Schwinn: Hey hey. The round switch guards are... plastic bottle caps. Badoit red for the red ones. Coca cola zero for the black ones. LOL thats what my youngest son told me to use. Good idea and thank you Bad.
ruprecht Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 (edited) In case you missed it in the other thread BaDCrC: your multimon numbers. Make sure you use the phantom fix exe, because your main display isn't centred. Awesome and inspiring work by the way.

BaD CrC Posted July 28, 2009 Author Posted July 28, 2009 Hey Ruprecht. Yes, I got your calculations a few minutes ago from the multimonitor thread. Thanks a million. I'm getting the monitor fix and I'll try your conf. https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden
BaD CrC Posted July 28, 2009 Author Posted July 28, 2009 OK Guys, thanks to Ruprecht and PlainSight, I got my multimonitor config right, and it's working great (although the framerate is really not great). Here are some screenshots: I also posted a video of the start up with the ABRIS buttons fully functionnal: https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden
ruprecht Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 I'm so jealous. Glad you got it going. Do you have your Q6600 overclocked? Makes a big difference. Mine went from 2.4GHz to 3.2GHz without so much as a burp. And a new GPU will help you a lot with the huge resolution.
