    It's nice to see someone with my same OCD for wiring. That was brilliantly done. Someday soon, I hope to start building a quality home sim. I have some Saitek items now and look to start adding on. Just need to decide on a single-engine, or twin-engine model.

    • @AlfredtwinSim

      Actually the credit for wiring goes to a friend of mine - but he is good in what he does! Have fun building - I personally favor faster aircraft since my flying time is very limited and I have more desitinations to reach in a short time frame.

    Hi I wanted to add to your below compliments, I ran across your video the other night, and have wondered if you are using the commercial Xplane 11 Pro to configure your projection visual screens, do you think you can get your sim FAA approved? I like what I see, my sim is not this elaborate, I found Air Manager a great way to go to program your own gauges, and the ability to change from different cockpits using touch monitors...... you mentioned you are making a video with more detail of your construction and hardware used. With your projection visual are you using mutilple computers? Would you be interested in making another sim using a similar set up with a real fuselage? What kind of yokes and rudder controls did you decide to use, I don't know of any retail type Yokes with the Beachcraft emblem.. Great job, you have to be real proud, and it is nice to see you demonstrate all those skills in a masterful way.....

    • @AlfredtwinSim
      @AlfredtwinSim  4 года назад +2

      Hi! Glad you like it. I use the normal version of xplane and warp with flyelise. Never seen any project with the professional version, but would be curious how they solved the warping. It runs from just one pc and is not going to be certified. I guess should be of course possible but it is just for casual simming. Actually this is a real aircraft shell by the way. I am now planning to do the backstage video rather soon with all details and sources. Stay tuned!

  • @cameronpatrol2395
    @cameronpatrol2395 5 лет назад +1

    awsome cockpit mate. only one thing though, you had a clear dash but painted the front, why didnt you paint the back side of it so you cant have any runs and orange peel on the finished side? cheers cam

    • @AlfredtwinSim
      @AlfredtwinSim  5 лет назад

      Cameron Patrol thanks! actually it would look differently having it painted on the backside than on the front. Did not really think about that approach to be honest. the painting was too much in a hurry so could have been done by me much cleander, but the result gave the panel some used look which fits together nicely with the heavily used real shell, so does bot bother me in fact.

    awesome build. Do you have a video or some type of info that shows how all the switches, button, displays, etc. get connected to whatever they get connected to, and then how that goes to the computer. What software(s) are involved, etc. I am new to sims and this is the part of all the sim videos that is almost impossible to find and is very important to being able to understand the entire sim build concept. I would be grateful if you could help in this area. I and many others could certainly benefit from it. If you have a Patreon page or donate page, I will certainly compensate you for your information. - Dan

    Few questions: For the GravoGraph you are sticking on the plexi, which product from GravoGraph did you use? Can I do this on a simple K40 laser? and finally for the lower switch panel which toggles did you use and where did you find the colored caps because I can't find those caps anywhere. Thanks in advance!

      just look up laserply for the sticking graving material. I am sure you can do that also on a K40. The toogle caps where built to order from a guy in the US who is not in business any more. Today I would just print them.

    Hello Alfred,
    What a great job you have done.
    Are you using Xplane 11? Or P3D. If you are using Xplane 11 then may I ask how you managed to get the wing views only while using Fly Elise software. I am using Fly Elise software and 120 degree rap around screen with Xplane 11 and am also going to be using a Seneca aircraft full size fuselage in a similar way to you. The issue is when I go from forward view to virtual cockpit (to have the wing/engine view) then the Fly Elise software distorts the image. I want to just have the side wing views only. Did you do this using Plane maker in Xplane 11 and if so what did you do.
    Your help would be much appreciated.
    Cheers

    • @AlfredtwinSim
      @AlfredtwinSim  5 лет назад

      hi! I am using xplane11. Pls check out my flyelise video. But you will not find the asked questions in there however. This distortion is nasty and a known issue. Google it there is some information from flyelise how to solve that - they have somewhere a little tutorial how to fix that in planemaker. To get rid of cabin and cockpit to just have side view I also changed the aircraft in planemaker - is rather easy to just delete those sections in the object dialog.

    hi there, i like it, its just fantastic, i am building a home cockpit as well, and my biggest problem is to engrave the panel, what material did you use to engrave?

      Congratulations. Fantastic. I am very interested in your solution on the engraving materials also. best!

      @@Jack-Wall The material is made by Gravograph and is a white acrylic panel, coated on one side with a thin skin of matt or silk black. You simply laser away the black to reveal the white beneath. You can get it in the UK from www.gravograph.co.uk

    That's excellent craftsmanship! Great job! The only downside is that in such a realistic immersive setup, it is easy to get motion sickness because your brain expects to feel the forces that don't show up.

    • @AlfredtwinSim
      @AlfredtwinSim  5 лет назад

      Brian Friesen thanks! Actually the trick for the brain is just to see outside view wherever it expects to see it. So in a calm flight phase you would not feel much anyways in a real aircraft either, so you do not get motion sick in here. To add to the immersion and slightly address this issue I have a 3kg body shaker motor fixed to the shell. Running this certainly closes the loop and it feels really freakin realistic, but the rattling is that noisy and strong that it shakes almost all the house and makes interferences with my family, so have not used it in a while.

    where did you get those big clunky switches ?

    • @AlfredtwinSim
      @AlfredtwinSim  5 лет назад

      they were built to order by a guy in the US, today I would recommend just 3d printing them - those are ordinary low cost switches with plastic caps.

    Hi Alfred, your projects are amazing!! I'd like to do some cockpit similar. it's posible buy your G1000 cnc laser cut design? (i don't know the real dimensions G1000).
    I want to do my own cockpit.
    Thanks.

      Gauges from flight Illusion and G1000 from Simionic - you find videos on both if you browse my channel.

      Eduardo Henrique actually it is a very thin engraving plate that lets light through where the text is. It is black upon a white surface. I did the glue it to a 2mm transparent acrylic sheet. Behind are ordinary 12 led strips. That’s it.
