Building Throttle & Yoke

Hello,
I started building the thorottle& yoke. From the first result I am pretty satisfied. By following the pages from
http://www.737ngproject.be/throttle.htm

I finished the base part of the throttle, it will be as real as possible. Here are some photos from the first outputs.

Detailed explanation can be followed in the construction pages.

For the Yoke, I definitly build my design. So I had some difficulties about sizes and fits. But, the result will be acceptable and also it will be seen as real. Now I am working on forces and return of the movements of the Yoke.

Collecting metarials going on

Hi again,

During my last trip to Turkey, I bought the pices of the master PC of my cockpit. An MSI motherboard and a CPU 4 core AMD with a 3.4Ghz / 4 Ghz with the overclock. I had already a graphic card with three seperate output which will serve the EICAS and the main outside view. The tests will be held ASAP. And for all other control switches and buttons I will use ATMega16/32 chips by programming them seperately.
Photos are coming soon...

New X-Plane 10

Hi All,
Eventhough I can't continuer my sim cockpit project at these days, My new X-Plane 10 arrived just 5 days ago from Noel. It was really a great gift for me. I had the chance to fly with 747-400 using its FMC options and testing the new features of  X-Plane 10.
I will share some photos and videos. And I am planning to prepare some tutorials as well for beginners.

Keep following ...
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to All .

Pieces Arrived

Hi,

I am glad that I found almost all the necessary pieces during my Turkey holiday. I love my country since it is always possible to find almost everything easily even they are very special ones. I will share the photos and some addresses with you in this blog.
I hope I can upload the details this weekend.

Slow Progress

Hi,
Unfortunately, i got not much progress on my construction. I was dealing about the change of my car and about searching a bigger house for my cockpit !
But during my holiday in Turkey, I am sure about finding and buying all small pieces such as rotators, switches leds and other small parts. On my return, I hope I will share more details and photos about the construction.
For those who go to holiday,
Have a nice holiday...
