Hi Guys,
This is the first Cockpit made by Throttletek just missing the Glare which is being made but it is fully functional and complete! With a Customized Interface... Everything made From Scratch! Uses a 21 Inch Touch Screen for the Avionics as the F-35 does! We are using a Thrustmaster Hotas for Mark I but I will be making a complete Throttle and Stick Replica of the F-35 HOTAS System! Please enjoy and comments are welcome! If someone is interested we will be making Panel Kits available for cockpitbuilders!
Good to see you are still working on a great sim project, Roberto. Have not caught up with your progress for ages, so nice to see you on the forum.
Have been still working on the Airbus, as it seems we are never finished. It keeps us busy in retirement !!
Now waiting to see if the new P3D is going to be the next big move, as I have only just finished installing a new 210 degrees video screen.
I guess we will wait awhile after it is released on Monday to see the results.
Hope the flying is going well Roberto.
Cheers..........Brian W.
Looks very promising Roberto. A fighter should make an interesting project, and also more achievable in economic terms than a 737...
I would defo be interested in doing a fighter as a sideproject to the 737.
Looks like you have a pretty good software runing also. Is it interfaceable? So you can have all the stuff working? Can you explain some more? Is the software from P3D maybe?
:)
Hi Brian! Thanks for your kind words! Well flying is Ok still on the E-190 hoping to get back to the A320 soon!
Hi Ivar! Yeah the software is made by Dino Cattaneo and I have managed to Interface every single switch operational within the sim!! Since it uses a TOuch Screen to run all Avionics as in the Real plane is very very simple! It can also be interfaced with Vertical Reality's simulations TACPACK so you are able to shoot targets in Air and on Ground with full targeting system!
Please check Dino's site here: http://indiafoxtecho.blogspot.com/ (http://indiafoxtecho.blogspot.com/)
Also his amazing software is going to be released as a Default on the NEW PREPAR3D Software which I am hoping to buy soon enough and see if can Interface it with my sim!
It is a very easy setup and to be honest I fly Airliners.... So I'd rather fly something more Fun in my own spare and sim time plus it has been popular with my Kids and Friends!! I will post Videos soon! You are even able to Fly VSTOL takeoff and landings just like the real Aircraft will be capable of!
Regards
