Project future

I have finally come to the point where I can successfully fly my sim but with FSX default 737. I have buried my plans to use PMDG 737 so I'm planning to buy ProSim 737 suite in the future when my budget gives more space. 

Even after ProSim I will still build all parts my self with 3D printer or other common tools. I like creating stuff my self and if I could go back in time I wouldn't bought that OpenCockpits MCP because I now know that I could have been able to create it myself a lot cheaper. 

With default 737 I now have following stuff working:
* All the screens and gauges (networked) with three computers + main computer. 
* External GPS unit (screen) showing the map
* EFIS (another not yet plugged in)
* Overheadpanel 
* Gear lever
* Throttle
* Pedestal is under construction at the moment but it is very promising
* Yokes are working
- Pedals ain't done yet so I have to use Xbox controller to use them when needed.
- FMC's not done yet and no hurry because default 737 does not have them.

    App production for Android

    Welcome!

    My name is Martin, I'm from Finland. I bought 3D printer in beginning of 2013 and started learning 3D modeling. Suddenly I came a cross with 737 video which looked like video from real 737 cockpit. After that video I decided that I must build one, but money was the problem. Most realistic simulators could cost from 50k to 200k+ and that is way too much for me. So I started to create my own panels and mechanism using 3D modeling software and 3D printer. It's also one goal to get this available for everyone who has interest to this kind of projects.

    Download my android apps and games to support my work. Thank you!
