Very cool Ray.  Time to build a motion base 6 DOF  :o

Ray,

How much of it is functional at this point?

Ah, I just saw your post to another builder and you spec'd it as:

"My own sim is a BeechCraft 1900D using X-Plane and the following:

1. X-Plane 10.4 (X-Plane is somewhat more forgiving than P3D in the performance arena
2. FlyThisSim Avidyne Avionics ( Soon I will be moving to a slightly more model-correct (And WAY Cheaper) avionics platform) Lots of great choices here....
3. Input Interface cards from Leo Bodnar
4. Output Interface cards from Ruscool Systems. (http://www.ruscool.co.nz (http://www.ruscool.co.nz))
5. A mix of real and simulated analog gauges driven by an Arduino card
6. Panels from http://www.flightlinesimulations.com/index.php/products/b200-350-pl21 (http://www.flightlinesimulations.com/index.php/products/b200-350-pl21) Eric Tomlin does an AMAZING job at replicating these panels.
7. Transducers from Clark Synthesis to feel the runway bumps and hard landings.
8. Polk subwoofer to add the low-end audio
9. Buttkicker power amp driving the Clark Transducers.
10. Sherwood 100w stereo amp coupled to a studio mixer for mixing in all the various sounds.
11. 3 computers: 1 for main sim system, 1 for avionics, 1 for external hardware interfaces."

That's great. I'd love to see a short video of it in action. Also, thanks for the kind words about the panels.
