• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I have just completed a very low-cost, portable flight sim "cockpit" that works very well, and the construction was so simple that I think most folks could build it after viewing the brief video clip I've put on a web page here:

It's based on the inexpensive (despised, reviled) Logitech Extreme 3dPro joystick, a USB numeric keypad, and 3 cheap Logitech "Joypads". I use it for combat flight sims like "Aces High" and "YsFlight", and it's helped me become competitive with very experienced veterans among those communities. I hope it helps others too.


Regards!
