This video was created back in Brunei before our move back to the UK. I was supposed to release a video every 2 weeks, but the hard drive got packed in the shipping container. I created 12 videos in all for our move. I just need to edit and release them.
A massive Thank You to Sebi Woelke for the Intro and Logo!

Hi Mick, it's just a hobby, but I do enjoy the design and build part of it. At least this sim can be moved easily when we have to move.

Looking forward to the rest of the videos! I’m currently building a new 172 panel using a mixture of your designs and my own! I’d recommend your designs to anyone, easy to print and with great documentation! Now, if we could just get the NXi working over a web server like the FBW MCDU, I could run mine with a pair of Raspberry pi rather than having to put more strain on my already hammered GPU!

Hi Alex, thank you for the kind words. The problem. I'm going to face with the other videos, is that the sim was almost finished, and the new videos will show that. But the very next day, it was dismantled and destroyed back to its basic parts.

Do you have some estimation. How much you will finally spend on project?

@manuelgarcia-ds8wy Жыл бұрын

My friend you are a good a interesting man you must have great formation to do it these items, because this hobby is very exigent, and minuciosus, and you have to buy a lot of electronics components in one container only for you. And you are a good and excelet jober, or worker.

H ello my friend, sorry this project also works on x plane ??? thank you

@helimech8152 Жыл бұрын

Hello, It should as it mainly replicates a joystick. The only functions that may not work are the excess buttons. But if you connected those wires to the Leobodnar instead of the arduino, then they too would work for xplane.
