June 19, 201213 yr Thanks, that's what I want. Occasionally my anal retentiveness wins out over my laziness and I really try to get something as near-perfect as I can. Cheers, Mike
June 20, 201213 yr Hi Thanks for the comments Ben and Word Not Allowed. Efis and MCP is Opencockpits the rest, frame mip glarewing its selfmade. My goal is to build a complete 737 capitan side sim, with overhead Motorized Throttle. Its gone take long time before its ready. Its based on a 2 computer system , a Main FSX PC hopefully 3monitor Nvidia souround. and one PC with all instruments networked . Its a long way to go, dont care if it takes 3-4 years its my dream to have a 737 cockpit at home. Hasse http://
June 20, 201213 yr Very cool! I have come close to purchasing an MCP or throttles before. The pricetag on them is what scares me most of the time. Anyways, good luck with your cockpit setup! It is very impressive!
June 21, 201213 yr Mike What camera did you take those with? It looks like a DSLR.. I appreciate nice pictures of PC's :) | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
June 21, 201213 yr Thanks! The shots were taken with a Canon 550D. It's a low-end DSLR, nothing special, but it beats compact point-and-shoots and phones any day of the week. Cheers, Mike
June 22, 201213 yr Hi everyone, Yesterday, I finally made the decision to go to my local hardware store, buy some wood, and make a pedestal/table for my 'cockpit'. Took me 20 minutes to assemble and 30 minutes to paint. Tell me what you think. Only spent 20 bucks!
June 22, 201213 yr Eyyyyyy, not bad Ben!! A cool, simple and effective solution! Like it! LOL What is wrong with it. I smell sarcasm. :LMAO:
June 22, 201213 yr Huh? LOL dude. I smell sarcasm. :LMAO: nose-cleaning Means you should clean your nose because you obviously smell wrong! = no, it not a sarcasm! Geddit?
June 22, 201213 yr Means you should clean your nose because you obviously smell wrong! = no, it not a sarcasm! Geddit? Me = Idiot :LMAO: But honestly, what do you think of it? I know you are very particular about your colors and aesthetics etc.
June 22, 201213 yr As I said. Simple and effective. I like it, though I would have solved the inner issue different, probably with a back wall or holders only in the back, so they are not visible in the front.

Honestly, this is my first DIY project that I have ever attempted... Although, I am quite please with the result considering it greatly improves my simming experience.
