Goran_M Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 It's either the room I have, or the garage.Everything else is hers. Apparently, I have no taste in decorating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simmo W Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Is the garage heated/cooled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goran_M Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 ha, no insulation in the roof, no heating, no cooling, and a solid concrete floor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simmo W Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 So perfect! You'll finish stuff real quick, and lose weight to boot. Then she can use your room as a sewing room. Deal done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortkentdad Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 (edited) I use a TM T-Flight Hotas X controller, supplement that with a Logitech gamepad for extra buttons and axis (use for views & zoom). I'm thinking of getting a gamers keyboard with more buttons but have not decided which one yet. Headphones are critical for late night flights. I really enjoy the wide screen effect - that's 55" across, I'm running at 4800x900 resolution. Edited March 17, 2013 by Fortkentdad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mario Donick Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Printed Stuff, Screen, Thrustmaster and AirTrack on iPad. And a big black chair for convenient flying. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario Donick Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 Done some upgrading ... During flight, the Thrustmaster sits conveniently on my lap. AirTrack on the iPad is a very important part of this setup, because it allows me to disbale the virtual cockpit view. Which greatly enhances the flying experience. Next upgrades will be rudder pedals, yoke, Saitek radio panel and Saitek TPM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying_pig Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 Nice setup however if you have to put your joystick on your lap i think you will need to by a new desk before you can use a yoke as you don not have space for one right now or even a throttle quadrant for that manner though you can fit in some rudder pedals though you should probably get a hard IN-MOBILE surface to put them on as you have to apply Velcro to your floor and bottom of rudder pedals to make sure that you don't move your rudder pedals around mid flight and pulling that kind of Velcro off that carpet does not sound like a good idea as it will probably take the carpet underneath it with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario Donick Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Yoke will be placed in front of the screen (using its bench vice style mount). The Saitek TPM (which is a Cessna-style piece, not the big throttle quadrant) on the right. The chair's height will be adjusted then.

Flying_pig Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) I gues you do have space for a cessna throttle quadrant however you do not have enough space between the desk and the instruments for the clamp on the flight yoke look at the pictures of my setup to see what i mean Edited April 3, 2013 by mj12345 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
