I have too many hobbies. I need to return to my 8-bit flight simulator-styled six-pack. I have all of the instruments made and mounted, but i think i need to finish up some decals and finally order the motors for it. :D
I've been watching your channel for years, and even though my time for flight simming has taken a back seat in my life I'm so very happy to see that after all this time you're still working on your passion. Keep it up. o7 captain!
Really, really nice. Here's an idea: since the background heading card is already driven by a stepper motor, it would be cool to optionally link it to the airplane's heading variable, instantly giving a heading-slaved ADF (or even a true RMI, if an VOR/ADF button were added, making the needle point to the bearing "to", when toggled to "VOR" and tuned to a VOR station). Also... ...Now build an HSI! 🙂
Hello Bob, Bravo and thank you for your videos, I managed to eliminate almost all use of the mouse on the simulation (encoder buttons, LCD, etc.), so cool! However, I have a problem that I can't solve: I want to display the Radio COM frequency on a 7-segment LED but not when starting FSX, only when the battery is activated. How can I make an Output only appear if another Output has a certain value ? In my case therefore, display the Ouput COM only if the Output BAT = 1 ! I tried in the precondition tab but it doesn't work. Thank you in advance for your help. Looking forward to reading you and instructing me or clarifying if my question is not clear... Best regards Serge from France
Hello Serge! I usually have a separate config row using preconditions for the off status that just reads: ' ' (8 spaces enclosed in single apostrophes) I think your issue may be you are using only a precondition for the on, but it never gets overwritten with the off/blank config row.
Hello Bob, YEESSS It works ! Thank you very very much for your help and the speed of your response. Looking forward to watching your next videos. I wish you much success in your projects. Sincerely Serge
Hi Bob! Thanks a lot for MF insights. Could you please make a multiplexer tutorial in future? If you don't have a multiplexer, at least schematic explanation would be great. Thanks a lot🎉
I'd like to do this sometime in the future! If you have MobiFlight's Discord (available by clicking the Discord link in MobiFlight) this thread has a lot of good information: discord.com/channels/608690978081210392/1203355010923241493

I can't wait to see it! I bet it'll look so dope!
love the desktop wallpaper. That's my favorite turboprop irl.
The cockpit is so roomy! Such a great aircraft

Still kicking! Thanks for tuning in all these years!

That could definitely be achieved in MobiFlight! I'd be curious to see how it goes!
A small light table, like you'd use for tracing drawings, would be a great help if you plan on making a bunch more gauges with stickers.
That's a great idea! I will have to invest in one sometime!

I'm glad you like it! I think this one looks a lot more realistic
Good job Capt
Thank you, Phil! Happy Landings!
Nice job! Keep up the good work
Thank you!

@@CaptainBobSimthanks a lot Bob😊 gotta read it
Flight testing done right. Lift the plane up 10 000 ft on an imaginary crane, drop it and check that ADF works. FAA approved👌
Yep 😂😂😂
Good stuff!
Thank you!!
Hi, in your opinion wich new computer harsware should i get
I'm not a computer hardware specialist but I listed my specs in the description - I also did a small video series from a beginners perspective on it.
@@CaptainBobSim okay, thanks
13:50 , already robed one , is it ok ?
I should have started the video with that then 🤦♂️ 😂😂
Loved it!, Would you please share de Arduino code ?
It's in the Cessna 172 Project Files
Can you sale one of those?
I can! The link is here: captainbobsim.com/product/adf-instrument/
👏👏
Hello👋
Hello!
First. If that's still a thing.
It is! You win!!
I have a Word for you... Well actually Two.... Latex Gloves... sans Lil Bob Abuser finger prints...
Definitely! Inside fingerprints are the worst!
