MTFDarkEagle Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 Jiminy Christmas. This guy is proud of this. I mean, he should be, but got no clue what it's trying to emulate. Some kind of trainer? For this price, you could "go and buy your own ship!" (Please no "But who's going to fly it, you?" References. You know, Star Wars? Oh never mind. ;) ) http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=261697076568 :noexpression: wow... that price ... Lukas - "TIN TIN" - 9th Shrek Air Strike Squadron TIN TIN's Cockpit thread

Deadman Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 Actually I looked it to this when the same cockpit was on a different site. Real cockpit, gauges look to be made by http://www.simkits.com/ gauges and I am not sure what they used for boards. These are made by some company down in Phoenix or Tuscon AZ they all so had other cockpits to choose form but well lets say the price is not realistic https://forum.dcs.world/topic/133818-deadmans-cockpit-base-plans/#comment-133824 CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.
Deadman Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Well if your in Australia and want to build a Huey this may be a reasonable purchase. http://www.ebay.com/itm/UH-1D-UH-1H-BELL-HUEY-HELICOPTER-INSTRUMENT-PANEL-VIETNAM-PERIOD-/191477604506?pt=AU_Militaria&hash=item2c94f4609a http://www.ebay.com/itm/UH-1B-UH1-D-UH-1H-BELL-HUEY-HELICOPTER-PEDAL-GROUP-VIETNAM-PERIOD-COLLECTOR-/191477605424?pt=AU_Militaria&hash=item2c94f46430 https://forum.dcs.world/topic/133818-deadmans-cockpit-base-plans/#comment-133824 CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.
Mr_Burns Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 How do they arrive at these prices? Its not like there is a mass market for them, suppose you start there and go down?
MacFevre Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) Ebay Listings: Well I hate to say it, as it would take me a lot of soul searching to lay out that kind of cash, but It's probably worth that amount easily. Deadman's always saying that this stuff is worth it , and it took me a long time to believe it. But if you think about it, you could easily pay $100 or so for the little instruments and more for the ADI and HSI. Plus they have two for some of them. Heck, I've probably got at least that amount in, unfortunately. Not that I could lay that put all at once or agree with the price, but you could do a lot worse making it yourself.

I will be looking at set of high quality precision allens to have for future. Edited June 23, 2015 by agrasyuk Anton. My pit build thread . Simple and cheap UFC project

Ramstein Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 I tried using an F-4 Phantom backup compass in custom van, and it would not work with the metal in the car.. aircraft instruments do not like auto dashboards.. and I am not getting into electronics that are sensitive and need to be tuned in Faraday cages... :joystick: ASUS Strix Z790-H, i9-13900, WartHog HOTAS and MFG Crosswind G.Skill 64 GB Ram, 2TB SSD EVGA Nvidia RTX 2080-TI (trying to hang on for a bit longer) 55" Sony OLED TV, Oculus VR
MacFevre Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 Definitely happens. When I was a mechanic at Delta, we had to adjust the compasses away from terminal, (they usually have a compass rose painted on the tarmac in the middle of nowhere,) and we would have to adjust it with a brass screwdriver. A pain, but necessary.:) I tried using an F-4 Phantom backup compass in custom van, and it would not work with the metal in the car.. aircraft instruments do not like auto dashboards.. and I am not getting into electronics that are sensitive and need to be tuned in Faraday cages... :joystick: Buttons aren't toys! :smilewink: My new Version 2 Pit: MacFevre A-10C SimPit V2 My first pit thread: A-10C Simulator Pit "The TARDIS."
