Hi Mike,Actually they are quite fast to getting back with you (send request yesterday afternoon)... Their response was: "Please be informed that we do not support display model T050Q1D1 any longer."So our journey continues with this issue, unfortunately!// Joni

Thank you for your kind words.Wiring is done and it is working.http://joni.kuulalaakeri.org/misc/yoke5.jpghttp://joni.kuulalaakeri.org/misc/yoke7.jpgOnce again, wiring is based on Simkits original yoke construction.

Hello everybody.It has been for a while. As some of you might remember me from my 737-project. Anyway, that project is on

Hi,Is this an option?http://www.opencockpits.com/modules.php?na...showpage&pid=15Never tested or so but I think this project is still up and running.// Joni

It was build for PIC767.Do you find any similarities about boxes? Take care,Joni

Delete.>>ThemisDear Themis, Dirk is not collecting any money so it is not a PAYWARE in terms what PAYWARE usually means. It seems that you are not satisfied with his input for this community but I am just wondering, what is yours?There is other products available so there is no need to continue with fsbus, since it does not serve you as you want. I hope that you understand one of these days what Dirk has given us.Kind Regards,Joni

Hi there,Since we can not produce air flow in our living rooms, so simulator community has replaced that with spring and centering and calibrating. If we want to follow gremels ambitition and requirements lets not forget that there is NO REAL skies, NO REAL airports nor REAL AIRPLANES either. That

Dear Sirs,I wish that we keep this forum as is and not marketing place for commercial vendors. Please, manage your marketing some otherway. Thanks!Happy New Year,Joni

Be>interested to know if you are doing this.Hi,I used like Alps, so directly to an FSUICP offset. Actually I tested OBS and Baro, so I choosed via FSBUS GUI rotary and fs.destination to it. I was actually quite surprised that it worked.rgrds,Joni

>Hi>To use a rotary to activate two key commands for a function>(eg increase with one key input and decrease with an another)>you need to use a knitter rotary or alternatively build a>REDEC circuit which connects between the rotary and the FSKEY>board.

I tested ones I bought from FDS and they works ok without REDEC. Both with and without detends.Take care,Joni

Hi everybody,As Tuomas said, it is not fake. We had Finnish simbuilder meeting @ museum few weeks ago. Cheers,// Joni

Hi everybody,Maybe some of you remember my previous project (Cessna Look&Feel). Anyway, during January I started to build single seater B737NG with following result:http://joni.kuulalaakeri.org/misc/simmeeting002.jpgIt is not flyable yet but very close to that. While column is done I am ready to do first test flight. Some basic data: Frame and glare is my own design, MIP Panels and MCP from FDS and software from Project Magenta. Column is done by my builder fellow Jan Karling. A lot of things undone...I will keep you updated!// Joni

Hi Fokker man,Why dont you make a bit smaller version to the table following same method that Tigert (Tuomas) did or what FlightDeckSolution has (FlightCenter). You can keep in that system overhead but what you loose is pedestal. Make it modular so you can easily transfer that to the table and away when you dont fly or build.Think about it, then when you get more space you can continue to the floor as you have it now. With your imagination, I think we could see a nice approach to cpit building!Take care,Joni

Heh...Now this is crystal clear for me... First there was this school or similar who had a 737 simulator with sidestick and now this one! Boeing is doing their product development via simbuilders... :D// Joni

>Posted a few months ago:>>Boeing Gray>R= 147>G= 163>B= 188>>I believe you can convert RGBs to CMYK, if not, ask me to do>it.I have to admit that I

Hi,I have asked this several time as well but as a CMYK or Pantone. Does somebody knows these "colorcodes" in CMYK or pantone? // Joni

Hi,It does look good and it seems to be easy to put together but with that price you get full set from FDS (www.flightdecksolutions.com) but you have to build the frames for it.For around three thousand you get Elite series MIP, Glare, Pedestal, CDU and Overhead. So check FDS as well if you are looking for comparing stuff. It seems that there is coming other palyers to the market so if you are not in hurry, wait and see how it does affect on prices. FDS is so far only one with proven track record....br,Joni

Hi there,I had this kind of problem earlier days as well and my problem was that I had in BIOS Primary Display or is it called Primary VGA or similar in AGP. Change that to the PCI and try again...// Joni

Hi again... =)What if you put second PC up and run gauges over the wideview? It is much more cheaper anyway. The clouds seems to be quite a frame killer in FS9. I have flying for a while with fs2002 and my opinion is that if you are flying IFR it is very good option and frames will be doubled.Benefits with fs2002 is also panel handling, you can drive visual in full view instead of flying it with windowed mode. But if you are flying VFR and smaller AC, fs9er is the one.// Joni
