| Can anybody remember/link this? (Driving cockpit?) |
| (1/1) |
| RyoriNoTetsujin:
For some reason I seem to remember a poster here a few years back who built a really detailed, enclosed driving cab. I remember it using a number of actual car parts, and having nice little details like an overhead dome light inside. ... subwoofer/shakers either under or behind the seat? ... also possibly had a monitor behind the driver to interact with a rear-view mirror? ... I think he painted the exterior a dark green? I checked the Examples links, most of which are out of date, and none matching what I remember. I've also gone through several search iterations. Does anybody remember this and have a link? I'm thinking about building a small cockpit to eventually put on top of a 3DOF sim platform, and I'd love to refresh my memory of what that guy did. While I'm at it, has anyone on BYOAC ever built a 2DOF or 3DOF motion simulator? I just discovered the guys over at x-simulator.de and the noob learning curve is REALLY steep over there. It's an international site, so there's a great deal of things being lost in various translations over there... not to mention no FAQ area to speak of. Any help is appreciated! |

Never mind, I found it: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=57479.0 Anyone even remotely interested in a driving cab should take a look at this one. Great project. |

Not as much as I would be interested in a multimonitor cockpit for flight sims, Star Wars AND racing |

(Well... minus the Star Wars. I don't want to buy a yoke on top of everything else I'm planning.) Aluminum frame, TripleHead2Go, 3 19" widescreen lcds, Logitech g25 wheel, some other neat elements... I decided I'd design and build this part now, so that eventually it will all go on top of a 3DOF motion sim platform... It's nothing but a Sketchup file at the moment... |

Lets see your sketches! ;D |
