Nice one! :D
I also wanted to build one in the past but after thinking it over it would just get too expensive, hard to build and would take up too much room :(
I'm just going to get 3 monitors, a CH yoke and and some pedals... A lot cheaper and still a very nice setup.
Here are some pics I still had in my bookmarks ^^
One thing I don't understand is that they have such a setup but still have a cockpit onscreen :dunno
shorthair:
In the first case, it would seem you need the cockpit display for lack of controls. Also, those must be 15" monitors, so I'm thinking that's an old example. One thing that will be cool with newer display technologies is they'll get rid of the 'breaks' between multiple screens.
Loki:
The first one you need an onscreen cockpit yeah... but the last one and the one on the site you posted looks weird :S
They also sell units like this Boeing 737NG
There was also a very nice one from a Cessna.
Only problem is that the Boeing costs about €10000 (
13,121.92 USD)
The Cessna was about €3000 but can't find it anymore.
And then you also need flight controls and more ^^;
btw, if I look at the keyboard it looks more like 17"

Is it possible to decase the three monitors and prevent some of the split screen? I was thinkning of using three 21in monitors and taking them out their case? Dunno though
