MTFDarkEagle Posted May 26, 2013 Author Posted May 26, 2013 Getting there :) Obviously the stick sticking out on top and the floating bar will be corrected in the actual build :) Still debating whether or not I will make the left side hinge as well..

MTFDarkEagle Posted June 2, 2013 Author Posted June 2, 2013 99% finished :-) The sticks sticking up on the sides will be rounded off in the actual build, I just don't know how to properly do it in the solidworks model lol :P Going to start collecting building plans and the materials.

MTFDarkEagle Posted June 16, 2013 Author Posted June 16, 2013 PC upgrade is due. Current setup (AMD Phenom II x4 955, asus crosshair II, 7gb) is failing. Mainly BSOD's.. So.. Upgradekit ordered: Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD3H Intel i5 4670k 8GB Crusial memory Should be here tuesday/wednesday :) Lukas - "TIN TIN" - 9th Shrek Air Strike Squadron TIN TIN's Cockpit thread
Gremlin77 Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 think about more memory. I got stuck with 8 GB, now I use 12 GB and everything runs much more faster. First also tried to change processor and graphic card, but then I learned that DCS is so memory hungry when you run on multiple screens and high detail. Just an advice.....'cause memory prices are quite low at the moment visit my build thread Gremlin's A-10 :thumbup: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=86916

Regarding the memory: I will be installing 8 more GB's in due time, this has been expensive enought for now :megalol: Lukas - "TIN TIN" - 9th Shrek Air Strike Squadron TIN TIN's Cockpit thread
