For those who are driving three projectors with three PCs, the FlyElise Immersive Display Pro software can be cumbersome to get all three PCs aligned.

In the past I have used a laser level on a tripod, but that proved awkward. Here is my new design, I hope others will chip in on how they do it. The goal was to have a small footprint base that could be moved around the front and sides of the sim along with a 7 foot vertical travel for the laser head. The laser is the Bosch unit sold at Home Depot and others. Make sure you purchase the self-leveling unit. The tube is 1 1/2 PVC mounted on a wood base attached to small concrete blocks.

Jim, nice design and thank you for sharing. Are you using 2 video cameras?
Cheers

What a great idea. I wish I had seen that before I did my level, with the same Bosch as yours, but I struggled with the tripod on tables etc., and even had to make a short board for the lowest level.

Great work......................Brian W.

Great approach, Jim. Thanks for sharing!
What are you using for your screen? Did you build it yourself?

The is the screen system from Northern FlightSim here in Florida.

I am doing the no camera alignment process.
