@@B738DIY ah ah I'm sure she doesn't ^^ Another question if you don't mind : How do you manage so well the multimonitors thing in MSFS ? I've heard it's a hassle...
Very impressive, congratulations! And many thanks for the video. It would be great to see some more detailed videos about the decisions you made and components you selected.
amazing set up ! Beats mine 🤣😂 But i do have the Cockpit for You V 3 motorized which is awesome and have a core flight MCP and use a mini 3 ipad for my CDU. Cant wait for more of your tour of the setup. Don't burn your house down!!!
This is fantastic man! I have one in my garage, got a used FDS cockpit and not everything works because I’m not that good in building and running scripts. So I’d say 75% works. Prosim is pretty good. I have to update it as I haven’t flown in a long time.
Awesome setup and amazing project! Have you ever considered having 4 monitors. Two on each side of course. two 42" or whatever would fit better behind the windscreen and two 55" for sides or whatever fits best! I reckon you would have a monitor for each pilot in front of him or her! Cheers
I did contemplate such a solution early on, but landed on 3 larger TVs, as it would be less taxing on the GPU and fits better with the current MSFS mulitview implemention
Very nice to see Will you ever make a step by step guide for how you achieved all this? I ask because ive never done much diy but ive really wanted to try!
I'm not planing a step by step guide. However, I'm planing to make a video going into much more details on my approach to building, my prerequisits and the method to the madness. Hopefully this will give you inspiration and a starting point if you chose to embark on building something similar
Brilliant work. Your seamless screens are superb!!!. Looks as if you were on the RNAV (GPS) Y RWY 4 for KLGA? I assume 🤔 that those chairs will eventually be tossed into the Hudson?😄 PS: That approach, on a clear day, is so enjoyed for left seat passengers - well until DNNIS fix then it's not so pretty. Your 800 flight-deck everywhere is spot ON! - Regards....
Thank you! You are correct on the approach. The chairs are on their last sectors 😊. My 3D printer is chewing though 14 kg of plastic, making parts for new Weber replica seats
Thank you, glad you like it! If you want to become a pilot, I would suggest you spend your energy towards proper pilot training. The time and money required to make something like this, is a significant fraction of what is required to becoming a real pilot :) In addition you have the issue of learning bad pilot habits when practising on your own. The Mentour Pilot channel has a video on the topic: th-cam.com/video/l83d_z3GPeo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=rpn2AtsnzleLRJc6. Best of luck on your journey towards becoming a pilot!!
Beware if you ever switch your processor in your computer or upgrade your computer. Most likely you will have to repurchase your prosim license. This happened to me last year when I switched my processor to the biggest one for my motherboard. I decided not to repurchase and I went with airmanager. I cut my 737 displays to fit the whole size of the monitors I have, it now looks more like a more modern cockpit. I then purchased the pmdg and programmed my overhead with spad.next, worked beautifully. then got a virtual cdu for the pmdg and pop out manager to pop out my mfd to a screen. But if you change your computer make sure they don't skunk you... I learned the hard way, but I'm happier now because I fly the pmdg not the prosim version of the plane, no wing flex or good sound package at least when I had it. Take care.
Thanks for the heads up. I'm sorry to hear that you had issues with prosim. So far I have not had issues upgrading or changing computers. But that is probably dependent on having a active prosim upgrade license, which hasto renewed each year.
@@B738DIY ok I don't think I had that, as far as I know. I did lose my pfd, nd But realistically I could pop those out from the pmdg as well, but with airmanger and have an old style horizon from a 727 I think and a regular old hsi, then pop out my mfd down in the center area. I'm really satisfied because every switch switches in the pmdg pretty cool but prosim wasn't too bad either. Take care.
I know nothing about flying a plane but I find this super cool. I was wondering during the part of the video where you are talking about the specs of the computer running this. You are flying in the SIM. Yo are moving the yoke around a lot both back and forth and side to side. However the plane is pretty steady in the filed of view. Why so much motion on the yoke?
Brilliant getting the cockpit light to match the outside light. Is there a "sensor" or something in MSFS that you can tap into, to get the lux or "world brightness" or something?
I looked through the available variables in MSFS, however I did not find any related to light flux, brighness etc in the cockpit. The solution I'm using is a Philips Hue sync bar (could use the Hue app) for two colored ambiance bulbs. I'm also running ScreenBloom for two Hue white ambiance bulbs.
This is great!! The biggest thing that stumped me are the switches. Some just cant be found pre made, did you have to customize/custom make switches? Curious to see how.
I have made all the custom switches using 3d printed parts, custom PCBs and some additional hardware. I'm curently working on a video on how I built the cockpit, so I'll add a section on switches
I just love that some parts are laser cut and some are 3d printed. Really bring that DIY charm and reduce cost. Is it possible to use X-Plane as the Base sim for this kind of project?
I'm happy you like it. I did have a brief investigation into using X-Plane when starting this project. It should be possible using the Zibo mod, but no guarantees. Prosim-737 which I'm using does not support X-Plane
Hi. Amazing job. Anyway I've a question for you. How do you split MSFS views output on multiple LCD screen ?. I'm using and testing MSFS's experimental feaures to create a three monitor view but even if I get an acceptable result most of the time, some times the views on the screen are mixed and I must to delete it and recreate an this is very annoying.
Hi, I'm also using the experimental feature in MSFS. I have also experienced issues with the settings becoming corrupt. Fortunately it has only happened a handful of times. I have no idea on what causes the issue. My start up procedure is to turn on my TVs before starting the pc and MSFS to ensure that the screen config is not changing while MSFS is running
How did you create the view shift via a switch in MSFS? I want to do this with triple 85” TVs. Are you using Immersive LCD Pro to warp the views correctly?
I'm not using any aditional sofware. I saved rotated custom views in MSFS (Ctrl + Alt + number) and added select view key press to a button in FSUIPC (Alt + number). The views was fine adjusted in the camera.cfg (find the correct one as there are severeal camera.cfg in the packages folder)
Nice work, but be careful with the type of actuators shown in your video. Been there done that and they are too slow. You want something that is powerful enough to easily move body/chair and also do at least 250mmsec. Any slower and it will struggle to keep up with the telemetry data and could even make you feel sick. All the best.
Thank you. Fortunately the actuators in video are only for manipulating seat position. I have more powerful and faster actuators for moving the whole sim. I posted a video, testing the actuators here: th-cam.com/video/NnleRBV7D40/w-d-xo.html
Nice. Looks the business. You may have already have this covered, but in regard to a FFB yoke, I have used servo kits from VPforce to build both a powerful yoke and stick. All the best. @@B738DIY
Unfortunatelyfs2020 is made with the single thread configuration. Which means we are ALL limitedby this. Let's hope the new version has this issue fixed. To see this use development mode. My configuration I9 13900kf 4070ti
The cockpit itself looks fantastic. I am not so sure about your method of moving the view to the captain viewpoint though. That means that the co-pilot, if you had one, would be getting a very wrong view. I think pro sims have the view centred don't they? Of course thats not realistic either, as it would look like you are crabbing, but its the best comprimise if you have two pilots (as a 737 should).
Thank you! You are absolutely right that the pilot not flying would get a very wrong view, when the view is "correct" for the pilot flying. That is why I have installed the switch that allows for changing the view. If we are two flying, I change the view to the pilot flying during the critical phases for flight, such as takeoff and landing. When we are cruising, I center the view to have equally "bad" for both. In pro simulators they have cross collimated displays that use curved mirror to make the view correct for both pilots. See: th-cam.com/video/Vq30JMknmpg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Sq2TP6iM3jIz3CwV th-cam.com/video/4R2bcZ-3eX8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2nj-Jd1zrY7ZZzoL

man i wish i could do this myself man
That's what I was about to say.
He can call the flight attendant and ask for a meal while he flies. Lol
@@Random_Vince that's if the cockpit power isn't unplugged for a microwave meal. 😅

Does the ProSim 737 for MSFS have much more detailed systems than the PMDG?
