Title: Square Peg in a round hole...
Post by: XOrionFE on March 05, 2022, 04:37:12 PM
Has anyone tried or know anyone that has put a Sismo-Solutions 737 MIP in an FDS shell?

Thank you,
Scott

I've learned in my mixture of Opencockpits, Sismo, and a couple FDS that 1:1 with OEM doesn't really mean the same.  While the outer dimensions might be 1:1 everything else is different lol.  Best of luck to you.  My Dremel has been my best friend as of late to get things to fit.

Hey Scott,  I am pretty sure it will fit, with some small modifications.  With your skills I am sure it can happen.  I know Sam had a sismo Overhead, and it would have been tricky but it would have fit in his FDS shell.  I would email them for exact dimensions, then you could check yourself.  the glare wings would be my only concern, as they may need some major modification.
