Interesting commercial pit project in development

[Revvin]

I saw this (http://www.simhq.com/simhq3/sims/boards/bbs/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=137;t=000156) over at the SimHQ (http://www.simhq.com) forums, they say they are planning to sell it in kit for also.

Pretty interesting! Being wood though, I imagine shipping from Germany could get quite expensive. :)

Though that might convince me to put together my A-B cockpit again... take your pick:

Why did you take it down? I'm considering one when I move home as I'll have some space for one.

[RogueSqdn]

Space considerations, mainly. I'm kinda torn.. but then, I'm not flying as much as I used to. I dunno.

Damn you, Rev! You got me thinking about this again! :evil:

[Revvin]

Well don't just sit there man! :D put it up and post some pics, i'm a little way away from getting it done but some inspirational pics would'nt hurt! :salute:

P.S are you getting attached to that new Av? you can change it if you like, we all know you failed Pirate school ;)

[RogueSqdn]

Well speaking of failed pirates, it's too bad ECU lost to West Virginia last night... but I'm STILL jumping up and down about NC State beating Boston College! :D (EDIT: Just saw it's SportCenter's #1 play of the day for Saturday!)

As for pics... they're already done! :joystick:

You took it down!!! ?

You need to get motivated again, put it back together, install Falcon or LOMAC and get some flying in.

I still ove those Aimsworth MFD's. I just wish I had the cash to afford them. Do they work as slick as they look?

To get back on topic (not something I am known for) I like to see someone going forward with a venture such as this commercial pit. I would agree that unless he has a distributor in North America the shipping would kill those of us in the US and Canada. Though that setup is not something I would buy I think its great to see anyone get that deep into the hobby. Face it - once you've built your own put its pretty much official you have lost all your marbles.

The only thing that might not work as you expect on the ICP is the thumbwheels.... they are simple up/down switches. But EVERY switch on them IS programmable. I have the FLIR Gain/Lvl/Auto switch set as my Master Arm switch.

I don't do LOMAC (or anything else with Starforce).

Perhaps CH Products could arrange something if it was commercially viable?? My marbles were lost a long time ago so a cockpit is no great indication :D
