Does anyone want to reply to my efforts who hasn't been yet? ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Subject: This Sunday at Ipplepen Hi All, This Sunday at Ipplepen I will be taking my CopyCats/SimControls helicoptercontrol equipment, but will have it coupled to the RealAir Spitfire softwareon my Desktop. I shall also take my laptop with an ordinary joystick and afreeware Spitfire for comparison. Plus a challenging approach. Later in the day Bill Trezise (FSUG member and the genuis behindCopyCat/SimControl equipment) will be bringing his new Spitfire Controlsystem along. He wont be able to bring his projector and screen or computerto demonstarate the whole set-up, but we hope to couple it to my PC with theReaAir Spitfire on. So maybe we can all try it in action. If it doesn't likemy set-up, and we cant get it up and running, you'll be able to see it inall action at the forthcoming Bristol FlightSim Show.
