Hi Ricardo, Happy New Year!!

I do but in this case I'm using the same Rhinoll as you all have

Great to see you working on this again Nico.

The physSky reflection in the chrome switches looks a little strange to me though. Have you tried any MXI/HDRI renders?

Happy new year mate.

Tim.

[NicoR44]

Thanks Tim!!

I will try to do one with an MXI map!

And Happy New Year Tim!!

You should make a MS Flight Simulator X panel with those. Fantastic!!

[NicoR44]

Hi Dyarza, yeah that would be nice!!
Maybe I will make a 2d panel and photo realistic xml gauges and upload it to avsim

Actually the "real" cockpit as I have it standing here fully runs with FsX and also Fs2004.
All instruments are fully functional and even the radio stack which is an exact copy (to the 0.1 mm) of a "Bendix King Silver Crown line stack" is fully functional!

The "real" cockpit? Do explain. Are you running Project Magenta or something?

Cool!

[NicoR44]

Hi Dyarza

No Not Project Magenta, we have developed this cockpit completely in-house, it's a one on one replica of a Cessna 172.
We have been in business since 1999 when we started with just a six panel, and for a few years now we make this fully functional IFR panel.
My father designs all electronics interfaces and stuff, I make and design all hardware my brother handles sales and we have two full time programmers here making all interface software.
I have spent many many ours inside the cockpit with a camera notebook and caliper to take all measurements

Our complete cockpit has just two controllers inside, one for all instruments and switches and one for the complete radio-stack. via a usb hub just one usb cable goes to the pc.



Here is a photo of our panel:






And this is a Photo of the real panel ( PH-VDM )




We also do helicopters, this is our TRC2244 which is a replica of a Robinson R44/R22
