Indeed. Lack of good tutorials for beginners in Orbiter sim-pitting is a major pain in the rear..:)

Hey guys! As mentioned in another topic I've decided to start new one related to my sim-pit build. Little introduction. The Universal Flight Simulator will consist of several logical modules: 1) 2x 15" Primary MFDs; 2) 1x 10" AUX MFD (Vehicle monitoring); 3) Atmospheric side stick for...

It depends what interfaces it uses.. And, price of that beauty, I guess, is in ball park of all PRO sim devices.. After a while I just gave up on finding commercial "plug&play" solution for Orbiter and decided to make my own.:lol:

Thank you! Perhaps, I should start new topic related to developing MFD panels and other controls for the sim

Yes! I got it working! Two days of learning and voilà! Using MMJoy software I decode button presses from Cougar panels and then realized that they are just a simple "game controller" and nothing more. I've programmed my arduino with MMjoy firmware and set key matrix for both MFDs (26 buttons...

Also, for better understanding, I'm attaching assembly drawing and circuit diagram of the module. Everything is straightforward, except making VNCMFD add-on to accept my buttons and Arduino as TM Cougar MFDs . Stay safe!:hailprobe:

Hey guys! I'm in the process of making custom MFD panels using two 15" IBM 6636-AB2 monitors with Raspberry Pi and 18x18 / 24x18 mm momentary push buttons for controlling (2 screens, with 2 2MFD each). For displaying MFD itself I use "VNCMFD" module...

Hey guys! Anybody tried to implement separate engine throttle control?

Hey! Yep, they work with Orbiter 2016 as well

haha, these guys [McD] should patent that quick! Before Burger King steals the show:lol::lol: This actualy is not a bad idea) Even on a spaceship for long journeys :stirpot:

Little bit of fun.. : https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/gutfeld-on-3d-printed-steaks I hope this is not a future)))

Man this soundtrack is outrageous! Love it!

..So true..:::lol:

Surely I do!)) Especially during the cold season wearing huge puffy winter jacket, gloves, etc - just like a spacesuit))):lol:

Haha! thanks! <Imperial march starts playing here> :lol: I've got huge interest of building full function simpit including external HUD, so basically, as far as I know, it's possible using d3d9 client.

jarmonik Thank you for your explanation! PS. Currently I'm not a developer and I have intermediate level of programming skills. But I try to dig deeper into Orbiter modding territory to create my owns designs. I can easily make detailed 3d models, textures, but can't put them in the simulator...

Hey guys! Sorry if somebody reported the issue before, it's quite a looong topic here )) So bear with me. Orbiter 2016 with d3d9 client lagging as hell with VNCMFD module enabled. Some info - https://www.orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?p=586427&postcount=147 When it's switched off -...

Yep, it's confirmed. I've launched orbiter with d3d9 client with VNC module and it lagged like a hell. With the module switch off everything's honky dory.

Haha! Spot on! Thank you so much! PS. Now I need to rewartch entire sequel!))) "Nothing to see here!!":lol:

Hey guys! Just surfing the net I've found this short clip: https://app.box.com/s/1o4uxjr4bb2rejiuf5b8lv11dqrq604x Please help me identify the movie / music video where it was cut from! That afro is outrageous! Bigger than Undercover brother had! LOL Cheers!
