Crj full sim cockpit

[Andre]

Hi guys!!!

Im new here and would like to say hello to all. Like many of you, I am eagerly waiting for the Crj to be released. I have built a full working cockpit, shell and all. Im running on MSFS and the wilco crj,200,700,900 but there are some major issues with this plane!!!! lol One of my questions is, will you be able to move the displays(PFD,MFD) if this question was answered im sorry for asking again.

Also anyone know where to get CRJ parts?

Beautiful.

I have the utmost respect for people with the skills, energy and perseverence to build a work of art like this.

Thanks for sharing.

Sorry I can't be of much help with your enquiries - last time I looked there were a plethora of 737 parts manufactured, but other stuff was harder to come by (airbus was picking up)

i love the seats!

W O W!!!!!  ;)

well the screens of the displays will have popups, and they will move but only inside the monitor. If you have a second monitor won't move there. But... maybe we could investigate on future to do that if the demand by users is enough.

One of my questions is, will you be able to move the displays(PFD,MFD) if this question was answered im sorry for asking again.

Wellcome!

If you mean to move the displays outside of the simulator window, to see them separately on a different display. Than the answer will be this one:

We are planing to release an SDK for an aircraft, that will give you this feature. So the answer is yes.

wow, i can't imagine the investment

And my wife thinks I'm nuts for buying an X52 Saitek throttle and Stick.

Very nice, indeed.

I know of a gentleman who has built a full motion 747-400 simulator that runs FS9 scenery and the 747-400 from Aerowinx.

He has so far spent 12 years building it and he's still adding to it.

I have a lot of respect for people who build these things. 

Keep up the good work.

And the 747 simulator...

Have a look at this small program called XHSI which allows you to have separate windows for Navigation Display.

Any updates on this project?

I've ordered some CRJ panels from Hispapanels.com for my first attempt at building a simpit. There does not seem to be that many X-Plane based simpits out there yet, and it would be interesting to hear your experiences with it so far.

Hi, just wondereing if these sdk's have been developed yet to move these popups to screens outside of xplane?

No. The post you are citing is from a person no longer involved in the project.

I am currently explorating how far we can push web technologies to use the other displays over network, like I did with the remote CDU (have you tried it?). No promises now if this works as I think it ought to.

Other than the displays, have you taken a look at the full list of datarefs we published - basically every CRJ system functionality is available to third-party applications via X-Plane datarefs.

Philipp

[abrenna]

That would be awesome! I guess it might be hard to get the PFD working well as a webpage, but the others might work nicely.

[kylegardner]

Hi Phillip, thanks for your reply, I have been looking at the CRJ datarefs but I do not have the ability to bring this data through to the colour displays. I have loaded XHSI which works very well but it lacks the CRJ specific warnings and aircraft system status pertinant to the CRJ. Having these CRJ displays over the network would really make our CRJ cockpits. The FMC on my ipad is magic thanks.
