transcontinental Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Hi Everyone, I was in the process of testing the NAV radios when I got caught up in the exterior view. I never did switch/check the glide-slope this go around. I'll have to make another run, not that I'm complaining. The flight controls feel REAL SOLID now, feels like you're in a tube-liner and not some fighter jet. Still a touch dark, need to do some more work on lighting.

CRJ_simpilot Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 I always get a kick out of those full fledged home-built cockpits. How much did that set you back, and where on earth did you buy the hardware? I have heard of Project Magenta. OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk? An awesome weather website with oodles of Info. and options. Wile E. Coyote would be impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transcontinental Posted December 11, 2018 Author Share Posted December 11, 2018 Hi, The flight deck is from Flight Deck Solutions, they are based in Canada. The cost was about 100K, saved some cash on the exchange rate between the US and Canada. I use sim-Avionics for the hardware/software interface.

transcontinental Posted December 12, 2018 Author Share Posted December 12, 2018 Hi, No I had help, it was Steve from FDS and a friend Axel that helped put it all together, took a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRJ_simpilot Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Wow, one week to put together a full fledged Sim. Pretty crazy. Hack, I spent at least 10 hours putting my PC together. I wanted to make sure and triple check everything. I powered it on and away I went. Thus far no issues. OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk?
