I know it's 4 months later, but I can't help seeing those 3D prints and just about crying, knowing that printer can do so much better with a little tweaking! Still, thanks for sharing the journey. This stuff is right up my alley!
Amazing video! This is just like how I started my home cockpit build. Experiment with smaller stuff and then move on to the bigger stuff. Can’t wait for the next update!
Please continue this series! I really enjoyed the video, although I was very confused when you started doing a lot of work for an aircraft with different cockpit hahaha
It's all about the little goals!!!! I'm about to start my own A320 home cockpit, so I look forward to seeing more of your videos, and maybe we can share some ideas!!
Tof!! Ik ben ook begonnen, heb nu een normale 3d printer en een resin printer. Eerste resultaten wat betreft knoppen printen met een resin printer zijn echt geweldig!
Heel gaaf! 3d printen is super handig en accuraat, echt top! Ik ben momenteel niet heel druk bezig met de cockpit, dus ik zit nog steeds te twijfelen tussen 737 en 320, omdat er over de 737 echt heel erg veel meer te vinden is inderdaad
As you are mentioning using the Fenix A320 you might want to think about how you plan to connect your hardware (especially the custom parts) to the sim. I believe there are lots of controls Fenix doesn't give you access to. Not sure about the Fly by Wire A320 as I am still using P3D with my home cockpit, so that might be a better option (assuming you want to stay with MSFS 2020). Good luck with the project!
Thank you! :) I checked this, and the Fenix 320 does not give access to all controls. I don't think the FBW gives access to all controls in Mobiflight, which I just checked. I'm still considering staying with the PMDG 737, though it's much more complicated...
@@model.aviation Another aspect you might want to look into is how easy, or not, it is to display the various screens you would want in the cockpit (PFD, ND, MCDU, ECAM, etc ), especially if you want to run those off another computer. Please know that I am not trying to rain on your parade, just sharing some personal experience.
I love it that you think along! Any help is highly appreciated as I have zero experience myself. I have been looking into running the screens off USB, which should be possible, though I'm not sure whether the sim will be running anywhere near smooth if everything is connected
@@model.aviation Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I'd be happy to share my experience. Good luck with the project! Take it one step at a time. www.flightpathsimulation.club/contact-us/
Hi I have a question, where did you get all the measurements from? I have been trying to get measurements for an A320 cockpit for the past 2 weeks and I would appreciate it a lot if you could help out. Amazing video nonetheless. Cheers!
@@model.aviation It shouldn’t be too challenging. I can actually get a lot of information and measurements from the corporate manuals I have access too. I really though beed to learn about proper wiring and electrical technics before I start though.
@@CitrusAviation That's lovely! Wiring isn't too difficult, but I'm not sure whether there are many programs that support the ERJ-145XR so you can link the switches to the simulator...
I'm not real familiar with 3d printing but some of those prints look pretty rough to me. I've seen other people make things in the past on RUclips and the prints jist required some light sanding to get smooth. Is this due to the 3d printer quality? Serious question, I really don't know and would like to learn more about 3d printing. Good luck on your journey, I subbed to your channel.
Hi, I love to hear that. The print quality is mostly dependent on how you level your printer bed, and my bed isn’t level 100% perfect, so the print quality isn’t optimal therefore. I have printed high quality prints in the past thanks to the bed levelled perfectly, but levelling each and every time I get tired of 😂
@@model.aviation you might want to mess around with the temps as well i see some curling on the edges of your prints. most of them i feel wont matter because its hidden inside some frame but still
I have a question, What program do you use to design all those panels/cockpit and what is a good way that I can learn how to design panels like these too.
I use fusion 360 (free), here a link to their site: www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/overview?term=1-YEAR&tab=subscription Really fun tool, you gotta learn it but once you get it you can design anything!
Hey, I also want to have a home simulator setup and I would like to know where you got the files and dimensions for the cockpit of the A320 and other models.
@@model.aviationhoi, ik ben ook best geïnteresseerd in een thuiscockpit maken en de bestanden die u heb gebruikt zouden voor mij ook heel handig zijn. Ik kijk uit naar de volgende video!
Do you still need the correct dimensions?? I have a lot of it in these photos of a modern A320 (they are not mine ): drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ERtjP3BZC9VYvbraAhE_59patCefyHpr I am also making my own A320neo FCU, if you want, I can share with you some files and models that i made :)

I’ve indeed did some tweaking and print quality is great now!

I was confused myself as well 😂
Episode 2 is in the making ;)
Its been 10 months is it going well? Im trying to make a home cockpit myself and really love your video!
@@Toemmer787So it’s still in the making, with some minor delay. But stay tuned!
@@model.aviationis it done yet?
@@model.aviation i have a question. How many a 3d printer cost
Additional requirements: spare room to put it in, very VERY patient wife and kids
dont give up the end result of your hardwork will probably be insane
Love to hear that!! I’m very excited to see how it’ll look in the end
@@model.aviation have you completed it ?
It's all about the little goals!!!! I'm about to start my own A320 home cockpit, so I look forward to seeing more of your videos, and maybe we can share some ideas!!
Awesome! I’m currently looking for the right dimensions so I can start designing. Do you know where I can find them? Thanks for the support :)
@@model.aviation umm you need panels or something? I Can give you the stl files for it
@@model.aviation you can tell me whatever you need i have most of the stuff for a320. I have been modifying them for my a380 cockpit
@@theopgamer4422 Hi, I am interesting in the files. Where I can get it? thanks
Good luck! It's a big task but "the journey is the reward", enjoy it.
I love to hear that! Thank you so much! :)
Tof!! Ik ben ook begonnen, heb nu een normale 3d printer en een resin printer. Eerste resultaten wat betreft knoppen printen met een resin printer zijn echt geweldig!
Ik heb voor de 737 gekozen, er is gewoonweg veel meer info beschikbaar, ook zijn er al veel 3d items gemodelleerd

Great project!, im waiting for the next part!
I can't wait either ;)
Amazing video 🤩 😁. Can't wait for episode 2 😁😁
Thanks a bunch!! I cannot wait either 😃
Keep making videos. I really want to make an A320 home cockpit someday. Just got to convince my wife
Hahaha! The project is currently on hold but I’d love to continue soon…

I have not yet found any A320 measurements. When I find them I’ll let you know!
This will be a long journey but it will be fun
For sure!
i subbed and now you got 1000 subs!
Thanks so much!! 🙏🙏
@@model.aviation btw can i get shoutout?
Nice man, ik ben benieuwd hoe dit project wordt vervolgd
Boeing ended up hiring this guy.
Source?
Great video! I would really like to do something this for the ERJ-145XR as I dispatch these aircraft for the airline I work for.
That’s amazing! It’s a very fun project, but I don’t know how easy it will be for a less known/popular aircraft

@@CitrusAviation That's lovely! Wiring isn't too difficult, but I'm not sure whether there are many programs that support the ERJ-145XR so you can link the switches to the simulator...
@@model.aviation Ok, I’ll look into how to wire and set up the switches directly to the software.
Hi! You mentioned in your video you started with the basics (the light box), can you recommend a video or search term so I can start at that phase?
Button box arduino - it gives you some great recommendations
Anywhere you can get materials for the A380 or A350? It’s my dream to have a home simulator of one of these planes.
I’d say the best way is to create them yourself… Making a sim isn’t a short them process :/
Can i build a 787/777 simulator (maybe only captain side) for under $12k?
Probably.
When’s episode 2 coming out
How did you get the labels on the Button Box for Master caution, IRS, and so on
When will you publish episode 2?
When I'm finished building a next part! I'm not sure when that is...

@@Im_Asra Thanks for that tip! Definitely something to take into account as well which I haven't thought of
What 3d printer do you use and do you recommend it? I am just thinking of getting a 3d printer soon.
I use the Ender 3 V2, I’d recommend it. There are plenty of reviews out on RUclips!
Hi, Love the video just wanted to ask how you got the primary flight display on a different monitor?
You can pop out the panels in MSFS and drag the panel to another monitor
amazing
Gaat geweldig worden. Wat is het kostenplaatje als die klaar zal zijn, als ik vragen mag ;-)
Geen enkel idee. Project staat nu al een tijdje op pauze, maar wil het snel weer gaan oppakken 😊

@@mr.vaggelis146 Not in particular, there are several video's out on youtube of an hour long in which you get the basics
you can do this !
I know a lot of work has gone into it. Are you sharing the model or STL files publicly?
Můžu se zeptat kde berete všechny ty dílý a kolik takový cockpit stojí
its been a year! Please carry on
I really wanna do something like this but all the Eletronic stuff and wires is looks super complicated.
What 3d printer did you use?
The ender3v2
Hi welke 3d printer gebruik jij?
De Ender 3V2, wordt in de video behandeld :)
how much didi this hole thing cost in total?
Where do I find the rest of the videos
They aren’t out… (yet)
Hey, I also want to have a home simulator setup and I would like to know where you got the files and dimensions for the cockpit of the A320 and other models.
Hi, I’ve got some Autodesk Fusion 360 designs of the cockpit. Would those be helpful? If so, I can send them to you via email
Sure, but are there any other models other than A320s?
@@myran1257 There sure are, but I don't have them, or know where you can find them

Any updates?
Currently I'm all into my model airport. I have plans for a 2nd episode, but haven't started executing those yet
Hi how do you wire the grnd cabel?
I wire it from LED to LED and connect them all together, to end up with only 1 GRND cable in the Arduino. Understand?
@@model.aviation Yes thx
Hey hello it is me kan i kom langs maby i hou also from planes
That is some horrid examples of 3d printing. You need to work on your slicer setup badly.
True, fixed it now. Much better :)
@@model.aviation Good news mate. Carry on ;)
Do you still need the correct dimensions?? I have a lot of it in these photos of a modern A320 (they are not mine ): drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ERtjP3BZC9VYvbraAhE_59patCefyHpr
