Photos: Home cockpit with PMDG 777 undocked avionics

Recommended Posts

Bravo to PMDG for a magnificent product! I undocked the upper and lower EICAS screens and slid them to seperate monitors for use in my homebuilt 777 sim. I'm looking forward to integrating more switches using the SDK.

@Pankaj D: Thanks for your comments!

 

@vickyj20: I've always wanted to try flying with the A320 side sticks :-) Best wishes with your project!

Very nice setup Robert! The beauty of these setups is higher FPS & no issues with OOMS.  I have  a similar setup with the A320 using FS9

 

Am hoping FSLABS will release in 2015 so I can convert the sim to FSX.  Btw what yoke do you use? Lack of decent force feed back full size yokes have always put me off building a Boeing home simulator.

 

Cheers

Same reason why I have no issues when I remove the external 777 model.  Remove the entire 777 VC and just use undocked screens/keyboard shortcuts, performance goes through the roof.  

 

The 3D modeling of the aircraft & Flightdeck is what causes issues for many.

Hi Rob, if you don't mind me asking -- which A320 avionics software are you using? 

 

My setup is with Jeehell FMGS right now, but I would like to know what other (good) alternatives are out there -- the word is that AST and Project Magenta haven't updated their software for eons.

Same question here ..How do you remove the VC?

 

Paul

 

To remove the VC:

 

Click the avionics you want to undock then press F10. The VC will be gone, but the avionics will still be visible.

 

 

 

I just fell in love.

Very nice Robert, what scenery is this?

 

Regards, Zsolt

 

Thank you Zsolt! The scenery is KIAH by FS Dream Team.
