Hi,
How do you guys do the faceplates for analog instruments?

Hi guys.

This has probably been dabated a lot already but for me who is starting out to build, buying parts etc my thoughts to tend to get to projection or screen.

Projection I know you need a lot more room than screens but what do people who perhaps have tried both think?

I think I have the space for projection but it does come at a price of some building alterations that would need to be done.

I also read people who claim that using screens don't get the depth perceptiob that projection brings.

What do people think and how did you decide which to go with.

Ian

Hello All,

For many years now my full scale sim have been standing in a pile of boxes waiting for space enough to be built.

I've realized this is not gonna happen in the near future. I'm even thinking about selling the stuff. However, I'm now tired of waiting and decided to build a desktop sim of the 737 so I can be in this hobby which I love and also have something flyable until I have the space for the full scale.

Here's my criterias:

1. Inexpensive. All full scale Sims gets really expensive and this one cannot be expensive, it should be a shorter project where funds must not be holding me back from getting further.

2. Easily removed from desk and easy to reinstall when it's time to go flying. Maximum 10 minutes of work to get everything setup.

3. Not take to much space. It shall easily be stored in the office (2.5x2m) without taking over the room. It shall still be an office too.

4. No need to use keyboard of mice between engine start and shutdown (during normal ops)

5. Cheap software. Software can be very expensive. I don't now how many dollars I've put into p3d Addons. Im not going for a complete suite to save money. 


To meet these criterias I plan like this:

1. I'll use as much hardware I already have for my full scale. I'll make everything I can myself. Use my 3d printer as much as possible even if it means it looks a bit more ugly than purchasing expensive hardware.

2. I've not completely decided if I should go for a small stand that can be attached to the desk or if I should go with a box that you put on the desk. However the important thing is that it's easy to move and put a side.

3. Nothing will be scale. PFD and ND will be approx 90% scale because they are important. All panels is designed by me with inspiration from 737 but they are simplified and switches I don't need between engine start and shutdown are removed.

4. With the official Normal checklist as reference and my experience from my MCC course in 737 I've designed a "MIP" including both MIP and OVHD switches and panels used during normal work flow from eng start to shutdown. Let me know if you think I've missed one. Remember I don't take non normal procedures into account.

5. X-plane! I'm not gonna purchase prosim, I'm gonna use Zibo 737 and Arduino or teensy for interface to keep the costs down and actually I love the Zibo 737 and x-plane.

I'll focus on the MIP now and later on I'll build a mini pedestal attached to my TQ consistent of 1 nav radio and 1 com radio. These shall have multi functions and act as NAV1/2, ADF etc. Also transponder will be added.

All panels will not be backlit due to cost and time. Instead I'll have a 12v led strip under the glare to light up the panels.

Panels will be white 5mm acrylic painted in RAL7011 with a spraycan and then engraved using my cnc.

Base will be in MDF. Backplate in 4mm clear acrylic painted in RAL7011.

I'll only use one monitor, a 21.5" lcd. It Will display PFD/ND, clock and an custom made upper DU for engine monitoring.

I'll use virtual 3d cockpit so I've also added some buttons to control the views. 4 buttons are still unassigned. Please come with ideas. One of them will be assigned to start pushback via plugin better pushback.

--------

Please let me know what you think and if you have any advices for me. Remember, I don't strive to make it as real as possible. I'm trying to make a inexpensive but flyable Sim with minimal use of keyboard and mice.

I'll add some pictures of what I've came up with until now.

Hi guys and thanks for looking,

I am trying to create a G/S INHIB switch for my Carenado Phenom 300. Unfortunately Carenado didn't model it so I am trying to find a workaround. I thought of creating a lua function that will rename the glideslope.wav file while a switch is on, then another function to restore the original filename when the switch is off. Is this possible?

I have found os.rename but I am unsure of the syntax to acheive what i want.

Am am trying to create a G/S INHIB switch for my Carenado Phenom 300. Unfortunately Carenado didn't model it so i am trying to create a workaround.

I thought that if i create a function that renames glideslope.wav when the switch is on and another that renames it back to the original file name when the switch is off.

I found os.rename but i am unsure of the syntax to use this.

Can anyone help?
