- Please forgive all my uuhhhs and uummms and the bad general quality. This was filmed spontaneously with my phone in one hand after my post on reddit in r/flightsim got such overwhelming feedback.
In this video I go through startup, flight preparation, then flying from Munich to Hamburg while talking a little bit about my setup. If people are interested, I can make a video talking more in-depth about the technical details of my setup, the planning and construction.

I think it's every aviators dream to get a setup like this and you are one lucky man!!!
Great Video! Looking forward for other videos. And great Setup. Thank you for the list of your Soft/hardware
Awesome setup! looking forward to more videos!
You earned a sub! You have really good production quality- keep going man!
This setup is insane!
Hi my friend, awesome simulator you have! I have seen which is your speed problem on final approach. Usually the standard steps during approach are: set approach phase at 20/15 mile before tdz, flaps 1 on final, flaps 2 with g/s alive, gear down, flaps 3 and 4 on the glide (but before 1000 agl). If you do so, you ensure that speed will be decreased to green dot before stay on final and all the further configuration stages (flaps 1, flaps 2…) will be on the right speed to set on. Your problem is that you set the approach phase very late and speed doesn’t goes down because the aircraft understands it is in descent yet. I hope you find this useful. Regards.
Thanks a lot. Will keep this in mind!
Realy awesome simulator! Very nice!
I LOVE IT!
Verry clean 🤓
You've got an interesting video with a fully populated cockpit(Skalarki?) . Good thing your'e also open for suggestions. Most airlines put on the seatbelt signs at about 10000 feet I think, but in your airline they put it on at FL380 ;)
But a very good flight in a nice cockpit, thank you !
Yes, it‘s Skalarki. I have been turning on Signs at TOD since years, no idea why. Maybe next flight I turn them on at FL100. ;)
ohu wow ! oh i see the MFG Crosswind ! :) Milan says the Boing Foot Rests ar soon redy to buy :) an i can say the Damper ar Crazy nice
Hi, is the environment sound for prosim 320 still not that great?
wish i had onw of these in my badroom
Great video..thank you. Where did you buy the equipment. I’m just looking into buying and building a complete home cockpit. I retired 1 year ago after 41 years as an airline pilot and would love an A320 or A330 simulator.
I got it from www.vier-im-pott.com/en/home . They deliver worldwide.
Hey how did you get all the buttons mapped in MSFS? There are many buttons in the A320 that can't be mapped in the game controls. Are you using another software for that?
It is done via SkalarkiProfilerIO and ProSim A320. MSFS has no say in that.
Hi can i ask how to bind the FDs of both captain and f/o side in one button? I got the f/o single trainer and Im trying to bind two functions in one button
I quickly checked and I do not have them synced. They need to be pushed separately. After startup, they are both on though.
How much did the whole cockpit setup cost?
Hi can I ask does prosim fully work with skalarki products on FS2020 A320
Yes, it does. The skalarki panels are communicating with ProSim anyhow, no matter what simulator is behind. I can switch between P3D and MSFS at any time without having to make any changes to ProSim nor Skalarki hardware.
I would like to build one can you help ?
Hey just wondering are you using the exp, dev or stable version of the fbw?
This is not FBW. I am using ProSim.
Did you Made tue push Buttons your selv? Or did you ordered them.
PS: good Video
Very nice job. Not sure if I missed it or not but what projectors are you using?
3 Optoma GT1080e, see video description.
@@a320home9 awesome thanks. I just purchased projectors too. How long did it take you to blend them for the 1st time. I know I’m up for a challenge.
@@FlyWithRookie Within one day you can have a decent result. But be prepared to be tweaking for some time. Some things you only recognize while simming.
@@a320home9 ok sounds good. Are you able to cover the entire screen with the image yet?
@@FlyWithRookie You can cover 1,5m height and 180 degrees completely. But you lose a lot of pixels. More pixels used, better warping quality. To utilize more pixels, you need to give up some coverage. In my case I sacrificed the left and right lower corners, which normally are obstructed by the frame or cockpit shell anyway.
Hi may i ask would something like this work on the toliss A340? thanks
Well not fully with the A320 cockpit, since it is different from the A340. Also I do not know the Toliss A340 and its interfacing capability. In my case, with ProSim, the hardware does not interface with MSFS or Prepar3D at all, only with ProSim. So there is a hardware abstraction layer needed to be implemented.
What A320 is this? The stock Asobo one? Or does ProSim provide an aircraft as well?
ProSim provides an A320 flight model and visual model for MSFS. It is still in beta though. Still flying better than stock Asobo or FBW.
@@a320home9 newbie question.... as it seems the prosim driver or whatver it is allows flawless connection from hardware to plane... can you buy this software/driver without the prosim a320 aircraft as i am reading its 1500 euros for a year licence ? thanks
@@a320home9 is it better then the fslabs or phonix?
Very nice , I like it so much , how much does it cost?
Thanks. Follow the link in the description, there you can check the latest prices.
hi 1 question: the a320 prosim license for home cockpit is 1500 euro. Are the updates free? thx
Hi, if you want to receive further updates, you need to buy a yearly subscription for ca. 150$ iirc.
@@a320home9 thx for replaying. congratulation. it's amazing
@@a320home9 1 more question: Does Prosim A320 have a Virtual cockpit? For example: if i use ProsimA320 in MSFS 2020 and i only have the pedestal like hardware, do i have the virtual £d cockpit like the Fenix?
@@hkr4lifeNo, it only has 2D panels, but not for everything. So you definitely need hardware cockpit components.
Sorry, this might sound dumb but is the ProSim the "payware aircraft" kind like the Fenix A320?
Yes and no. It works like one, but it does not have a full virtual cockpit. You need to have cockpit hardware.
How much did it cost and is there a step by step guide anywhere in the internet to Sept up a simulator ????
About $80k
Bro how to build
How do you get the blue lien go around thing 29:19 (hope you understand what I mean)
nvm thought you where using a A32NX
ProSim calculates the GA automatically from nav data.
how the have more money then the average person plays simulator have fun p.s I'm jealous
How do the projector screens look like at night time flying in the simulator?
Well, it is not totally black, of course, and the overlapping / blended areas are brighter than the rest, but if you turn down the light in the cockpit, you can see all the details you need to see.
@@a320home9 nice! I just thought night flying might look more real, since the buttons arent that lit up :) but i forgot about the projector! Anyways, you have an amazing simulator! I wish i could have one one day 😃
👍👍👍
Have you tried to fly in the fenix a320?
No. Afaik Fenix is not yet compatible with this kind of hardware.
How muhc it approximately cost to have this complete A320 setup at home?
Middle class car, depends heavily on what you already have, PCs, projection etc.
Can you release a full flight
I need to think about the camera setup.
Where'd u get the fmc/mcdu and that from
www.skalarki-electronics.com/en/
where did you get the a320 simulator?
www.vier-im-pott.com/en/
What projector you did use for display
3x Optoma GT1080e
@@a320home9 but in the video I saw only two at the top, where is third one?
@@therobbit5657 All beneath the ceiling. One front, one left, one right.
Hey, is it possible to pay a 2h session with you in your sim ?
No, sorry. There are many providers with way better and more professional setup than mine.
Is there a option to change livery’s or use the iae engines in prosim a320 msfs?
The ProSim flight model for MSFS comes with both engine types and you can also change livery.
@@a320home9 awesome do they have the Jetstar livery? Or how do you install them
@@animatedchristmascollector3754 I am using the default liveries coming with the aircraft, in which I have not seen Jetstar. But there is also an additional livery pack which might have it included. In the sim you select the aircraft and the liveries like any other. They are installed via the ProSim suite and executables. But ultimately they end up in the Community folder of MSFS like any other addon. Keep in mind that ProSim is tailored to heavy duty. So all patches, flight model updates etc. can be done very easily. E. g. if the suite detects an available patch, you can download and install it on the spot, and all other modules and clients even across your network on client PCs are automatically patched to the compatible version, even during runtime. Also a revert or downgrade is possible and as easy as an updgrade, since in the suite you see the whole version history and can just install the version you want, no matter if higher or lower than your current one. So after the initial install of the suite I never had to mess around on file system level again.
Oh so is there a link to the livery pack? Or is it just included with prosim a320 as an addon
@@animatedchristmascollector3754 Sorry, it is a paint kit with which people can make their own liveries. Sometimes people link their self-made liveries in the forums.
11:07 warum steht das Ordo ab Chao ? das ist doch latain und heist : aus Chaos wird Ordnung
Im Keller herrschte lange Chaos, bis das Cockpit ordnungsgemäß fertig war. ;)
How much dollars
He doesnt want his wife to find his secret room, thats why he talks to quietly haha
Could this work with x plane
I have not tried myself, but I think in general hardware interfacing is possibly with XPlane and certain profilers.
How much it cost roughly?
Link to the company that builds it is in the description. There you can get the newest prices, depending on your config.
That's an expensive way of looking at the clouds while the plane flies itself.
Hi. Kommst Du aus Hamburg?
Bayern.
Aus welcher Ecke von Bayern? Ich bin A320 Pilot und habe aus Platzmangel nur ein Mini-Home-Cockpit mit Skalarki/4imPott. Vlt. nimmst du mich mal mit und ich gebe dir bei Bedarf ein paar Tipps für deinen Approach 😉
Bolehla buak ghaso ghaso
how people get that much money???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
insane setup. Horrible approach management :P
What could I have done better? Always eager to learn.
@@a320home9 I know you were expecting to use managed speed all the way down, which appeared to be faulty, or it was going by the MAX speed limits which are not always recommended. Regardless, I always use selected speed to manage the aircraft's energy myself under 10,000ft with the idea of always being ahead of the plane. A big red flag during the approach was turning onto final approach at 220kts while on the glidepath. If it was me, I'd have dialed back the speed during those left turns while you had increased drag or better yet decend to the MSA and bleed that speed off. You cannot go down and slow down unfortunately, so you either decend, level off and bleed the speed or bleed the speed first and opt for a shallower decent starting further out. I personally perfer to decend first then bleed off the speed at idle thrust before decending again at a speed I know won't leave a heap of excess energy later on. Just my 2c on the matter, not a professional by any means :)
@@FlightAce100 I agree. Since I recorded this video, I give way more attention to separating descend and deceleration. Having to do both at the same time is never good. But even professional airliner pilots mention that sometimes they drop the gear earlier for the sake of drag.
