K-36 and Su-27 grip

[Flim]

Hey guys,

 

Once I finish the Uh-1 collective, I'm going to start working on the Su-27 Russian VRpit including grip and maybe throttles after that.

 

 

 

 

The seat is pretty easy for me since that is what I'm good at, but I think we can do a decent 3d printed grip as well. My thought is to print the grip in 3 sections and glue them together forming the entire grip. I would love for it to attach to the hog and I think we can get a board made to do the switch logic.

 

I'll keep this updated as the project evolves and any pics, info, and or thoughts will help.

 

Matter of fact, do need some info on how the trigger works for the 27 grip...?

 

We also can talk about the best way to connect custom grips to the hog base.

As for a switch board;

Should provide plenty connections and not to expensive either.

A custom board would be better since that is too large to fit inside the grip or the base.

I would love you long time if you actually pull this off. Long, long time. :D

Im sold on the K36. The 27 stick would need to work seamlessly with the WH however, for another guaranteed sale (and continued pestering:))

This a DIY one, but perhaps help:

Awesome stick :thumbup: it looks great And the throttle in a separate video is just amazing

SU 27 throttle ? Totally interested.

The sit will be too expansive for me to import.

LOL :megalol:

 

Count me in for the K-36 seat :thumbup: ...... and maybe for the stick + throttle also (if I have the money for it) :cry:

If you build it they will come :)

LMAO! :D Great episode...haha.

 

but yes....I would get a grip for the warthog.

[Flim]

I'm going to do my best to get it done!

[metalnwood]

Are you talking about a grip on top of the warthog base whose custom electronics interface through the warthog or a stick that has another wire coming out and plugs in to the computer in addition to the hog base?

 

From memory you need to have the hog grip attached to the base when its turned on for the computer to recognise it.

 

I could put my logic analyzer across it to see what they say to each other. It could be that there is a simple handshake and that the custom grip only has to do this once off conversation to the base so that everything is ready to rock and roll.

 

Would require arduino or similar to get it all going if this is the case.

It's actually much easier than that. Ill have more details by the end of the week.

[metalnwood]

Aha, sounds like someone has done some investigation, good stuff ;)

[Flim]

Ya, we are on it!

Bargain real K36 seats..

Nice pics!!!

[whartsell]

Film have you ever been here

 

They have a few airworthy Hinds and a MiG-23 that is undergoing certification for airshows.

Located in Lancaster TX

Nice pics!!!

 

Indeed! We are expecting great things!

[Succellus]

Fully restored....

I wouldn t bet on pulling for real the ejector handle...you probably got a roof above you!!

That would definately piss of the other half (further):megalol:

Alright.. little progress on the seat..

How much for an option to fill the side canisters with beer and have a drinky hose coming out them?

You mean they don't come that way already!! :D
