Ripcord Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Take a look at my project -- still in process but getting close to being usable now. :joystick: It will be used to fly FSX, Janes FA-18 and DCS A-10C when it comes out. The thing will go in front of an 8' screen with overhead projector, and incorporates 4 mini LCD monitors and 2 touchscreens, on top of X-keys and a ton of Saitek pro flight gear (that can be only used with FSX).

astrospud Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Very nice! Hope ya got shin guards tho! I anticipate that you will get bruised shins and knees applying rudder :). Every time I look down at the Blackshark cockpit, I think the same thing to myself... Great effort! Rectum non bustus
walker450 Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Great work! I know a guy in Houston that flys AF and DCS. His callsign on here is Machinegun. He is working on a Mig-29 pit. Do you know him by chance? Speedpad for Inputs | My Simpit | Joystick Damper Mod
Krebs20 Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 On your last picture lower right. What is the name of that keypad? I could use one. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
PanelBuilder Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 On your last picture lower right. What is the name of that keypad? I could use one. Looks like an X-keys unit: http://www.xkeys.com/xkeys/xkpro.php Cheers, Colin

Every time I look down at the Blackshark cockpit, I think the same thing to myself... Great effort! No really I suppose it is hard to tell from the angle on these photos, but really have I have pretty good height under that center console -- 24" for sure, as you can see that 24" x 48" plywood panel fits right under there. The only part of this pit is getting carefully so as not to slam ones crotch into that little holder where the joystick sits. I am going to go back and saw/sand the edges on the bottom, just for a little added wiggle room there. :smilewink: Also yes I have two X-keys units in there, considering adding one or two more.
