Idk if there are people here who have some knowledge/experience with making their own controllers or hardware, so if you do please help me out a bit if you can. For the past year I've been designing a steering tiller based on the Boeing 777's steering tiller and all I need now is a controller board with a USB port(preferable USB A or USB C) for reading a single axis input from left to right. As of now I wanna using a part of an old racing wheel that I salvaged until I figured out the dimensions for the final build of the housing(see spoiler below). All I need now is a controller board that can fit this header(again, see spoiler below below). A friend of mine said something about an arduino-esque board with an atmega chip, iirc an atmega32u4 chip specifically. But I would like some recommendations on which brands would be decent for long term use and maximum compatibility with the current flightsims (xplane, p3d, msfs). And preferably a board that has a small enough form factor. The latter point is, bc if I do need to put it away, it won't take up a whole cabinet. So if anyone has some recommendations, please let me know. -
Dear members, I am using 1PC with 3 video cards to run P3Dv4.2 with PMDG 737 for my home cockpit setup. I have main outside view running from gtx1080 on the projector screen and use other 2 cards for PFD/ND/EICAS views, 4 monitors in total. I am getting very good FPS (around 50-60) but I do get some stuttering, especially while taxing. Have tried many solutions, NI, vsync, locking fps in sim and in NI, 30hz screen, etc and no solution so far. I have tried running the same system but without using the monitors for instruments views and all is very smooth! As soon as I get PFD/ND/EICAS on separate monitors I don’t get FPS drop but I lose the smoothness. Anybody has any experience with this kind of setup? Processor is i7 7700 running normally at 60%, GPU is neither loaded, any suggestions what could be the cause or possible fixes? Many thanks for your help! Kind regards, Sergej

Hi guys, I want to build a home flightdeck. It will be very simple:2 pcs connected over the network, one for the first officer and one for the captain with CH pedals, saitek throtle and CH yoke.My question is: do you know if it is possible to fly one aircraft with 2 flightsims connected over network and what programs/modules would I need for that?Thanks for your help
