Title: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: SAS~Bombsaway on October 10, 2009, 10:52:53 AM: I thought I'd start a new thread where we can post a picture of what we look like. We come from so many backgrounds and countries, I thought it would be neat to see what we all look like. They can be a serious picture or a funny one. What ever suits your personality. ;D

This is one of me. An older picture but its what I looked like trying to get the 4.09m patch installed.
Me pulling my hair out.

Every three years I donate my hair to Locks for love which makes wigs for kids with cancer.

Post by: CoolBreeze on October 10, 2009, 01:57:45 PM: While visiting the local history museum in Cairns, I spied this WWII-vintage RAAF Link Trainer. The elderly museum volunteer who was giving us a tour suggested I climb in for a photo. Cheers to Australian hospitality. :)

my girl and I...

lucky guy, she looks great ;).

This is me, in a wedding outfit. Yeah, not kidding, that 88 was sitting just outside a church when my cousing was getting married... there is a military museum sitting just beside the church and they got a 105mm howitzer and the FlaK18 standing there. Needless to say I seized the opportunity to get myself in a pic with it :)

Post by: Messer on October 12, 2009, 09:05:00 AM: Nice to see that we're historical nuts, by the way. I always wondered if the people who were very into aviation simulators, and Il-2 in particular, were they also generally interested in history? :D

PS. I always wanted to participate in a historical reenactment - the cost of a full set of Mediaval armor though is just... JIGGAWATTS!...

Post by: SAS~Bombsaway on October 21, 2009, 06:00:29 AM: Mine is about two years ago. My kids would just loose it if I went with dreads. I grew up with mostly bikers so the hair was always long. Then my dad ended up with cancer back in 04 and I started donating it. Just did not too long ago so now its time to start again.

Post by: farang65 on November 08, 2009, 03:54:35 AM: Hi There,

SAS is truly fantastic!
I've just installed the sound mod and buttons over a clean 4.09 patch.
It's a really nice change.
Have never flown on line.
That's what really made me do it and all the interesting aircraft.

My Thai wife took the picture at the time. We were living in Nakhon si Thammarat in the South 3 years ago. She is from the North so now we are living very close to Chiang Mai in Lamphun. My wife is comes from half way between Chiang Rai and Chiang Kong.

Have been an English school teacher for high school students for the past 4 years. I'd never teach back in Australia!

My Thai nick names are Falang Bok (short farang) or B.

Nice to see an older crowd here. Hell I'm 44 and was starting to get annoyed with the younger ones on AAA.

There was tree luftwaffe airbases On this terittory.it's a historical land with a lot of old german buildings and fortifications.Ancient city was ruined in 1945 under bombs as many of german cities , but there are lot of military places , and also three wars beggins here for russia.
So under this historical pressure we decide to make our squadron call Koenigsberg =K39= there are 6 pilots ,everybody speaks english.
Now we are prepairing our web site www.Konigsberg.do.am .

Post by: SAS~CirX on November 21, 2009, 06:11:39 PM: Bombs made the excellent Show your face thread.

Some may have noticed I am a bit slow with the modposting the last while, but the moving servers is just part of the reason. I am also going through an exhausting data cleanup on my systems at home, cause I have just completely lost track of everything I am working on. It was just too much. To be sure, a 500GiG hardrive is now filled with backups of WIP's, Mods, tests and...crap.

When my wifey heard I was doing this she mentioned that I might straighten out the old cockpit also. Use a duster, and a wet cloth...

And since she went to have holiday at the sea this weekend (girls weekend), leaving me with the wet cloth, I had to send her a pic of the cleaned room tonight to brag a bit. So I thought, this may actualy be interesting to see of you all also. Show us where you sit spending days and days in the virtual skies, or on silly forums like this one.

Here is my "cockpit"

Post by: SAS~Bombsaway on November 22, 2009, 06:36:09 AM: Great idea CirX! ;D Here is mine. This shot is a few months old but its mostly the same today. Saitek X-52 and rudder peddles but now I have an Trackir 5 sitting on top the monitor. I made the holders for the throttle and stick from wood to have more of the cockpit feel. I've also updated my speakers to some betters ones with a sub woofer behind the monitor but this is the bombardier's pit. ;D

Post by: neuro on November 22, 2009, 07:59:40 AM: @Bombs: I love that joystick mount. where is it sold? How much?

My "cockpit" looks really ugly but it can be .... interesting (if you're that kind of person), so I added some explanations (thanks god im a graphomaniac, right? ....er ... right??)

(https://www.sas1946.rocks/images/imageshit/dead/dead.gif)

Legend:
1 - anchoring system out of an old headset
2 - MS Sidewinder FF2 with anti-sweat grip out of an old T-shirt
3 - A regular (fairly big) screw holds the diagonal anchoring bar in place. It doesnt actually pierce the desk, it goes between the sliding desktop and the side, and it can be easily removed with one hand when the joystick is not in place
4 - Piece of sponge tightly packed with a cloth, keeps the diagonal bar from moving back and forth
5 - Pall Malls. Whatever. Who the hell wants to be 90 anyway (South Park)
6 - This is another piece from the same sponge, on top of a piece of junk that comes from... somewhere, that holds in place a piece of cardboard. The cardboard opens like a book when IL-2 isnt in use. This is my fix to the "flashing box bug" that still appears on triple head systems when using Perfect mode (they never fixed... modders? Anyone?) I can easily live with a black square in a corner, but a *flashing* red square is a bit too much, hence the better-than-a-kick-in-the-nuts-anyway kind of fix.
7 - Track IR camera is up here. (T-IR4 camera with T-IR 5 software)
8 - one of the surround speakers (up) and the surround amp (down). bran El-Cheapo (some $60 for a 5+1 with subwoofer some 3 years ago.... needs replacement but not so badly)
9 - bottom side of a tipped-over 5-port "el-cheapo" hub/switch, part of my 4-machine home mostly *nix LAN with one machine dual booting WinXP 32 pro for gaming: a highly modified bare-bones system, basically, graphics, sounds, and network. That's it. No useless services, no unused programs, no invasive "security" (Avast + Win Firewall + Ghostwall, those get the job done without asking for a lot of user input: all you need is to configure them properly, once.)
10 - Over 2 year old home assembled box with Asus P5N, Core2 Duo @ 2.66GhZ, 4x 1GB 800MhZ RAM (only 3.2GB used under Win32... more than enough), X-Fi Xtreme Gamer sound and nVidia 9800GT + triple heard... start showing its age, maybe mobo+CPU+RAM upgrade in January and nVidia series 200 later?
11 - this is the missing drawer that you can see... er that you *can't" see on the other side ( by # 1), now acting as monitor support. The right-hand side monitor rests in a thin wooden "plank" (what's that called? A ...mini-plank thing). The monitor's weight is balanced by the weight of culture: a pile of books on the back. All the monitors have been modified: the supports have been removed to allow lower mount. They are supported by some more of my "inventions" on the back sides instead of their original bases/supports)
12 - additional keyboard that acts as "panel", some keys have been covered with pieces of plastic boxes and other keys have been marked as "fire extinguisher", "auto prop", "Prop feathering", etc.
13 - Modified CH Throttle quadrant: when 4.09 was due out I had understood as if it would include dual throttles so I made the last modifications to the 6-slider throttle (hope I get to actually use the dual throttle thingy before I die...). Form right to left: rudder trim and aileron trim (red) elevator trim (black) dual throttles (black/white, modified), prop pitch (blue). I use the small throttle slider on the joystick base for the flaps.
14 - Arms of my armchair. I could I be an "armchair pilot" if I didnt use an actual armchair? I throw a bed sheet over the armchair (washing a sheet (in a washing machine) is way easier that cleaning an armchair)
15 - one side of one pedal of my CH Pro pedals. An old router on the right and 2 old floppy drives on the left side hold the base in place. A similar system is used on the back side.
16 - The joystick support is made out of one of the bases/supports that originally came with the monitors, the base is upside-down and supports the stick. It has been fixed to a construction of metal tubes that were originally from some office furniture (you can see a couple of small wheels around the "thing"

... and OK, as I said it doesnt look like much but it gets the job done. Hope I inspired someone with my "redneck engineering" ;)
(Note: it's not dust, it's cigarettes ash)

[EDIT] came to edit some typos (and surely missed some), I noticed that I didnt tell how I made the dual throttle thing: the upper handles are the two halves of an old Logitech Attack3, sewed at half length and divided along its "natural" left vs right vertical division. The two resulting ... thingies have been fixed to home built wooden L-shaped sticks, which in turn have been fixed to the slider (after removing the plastic caps). The white tape used for the uh... finishing is electrical tape (sticks hard and lasts fairly long. There are other more robust tapes, but the electrical is more elastic and I can pack it tighter)

(http://i799.photobucket.com/albums/yy279/Jiver67/Picture.jpg)

I finished building this over the summer months and just picked up a 26-inch monitor to enhance the "immersion" effect. The frame is custom built from ABS pipe and PVC fittings. Flight stick is a heavily modified Saitek Aviator. I also have Saitek rudder pedals and a CH Pro Throttle. Sound system is a Creative Labs 5.1 surround sound setup. All the components (stick, throttle, pedals, switch panel, keyboard, and mouse) connect to a 7-port USB hub that is mounted under the monitor stand. This keeps everthing nice and neat and results in just a single USB connection to the PC.

Title: Re: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: Jiver67 on November 23, 2009, 06:01:57 PM: CirX,

The keyboard is mounted to a plywood board using velcro. Unfortunately it is not easily removed. The idea was to get the keyboard out of the way but close enough to hit the escape, and outside view keys when needed. This is something I would probably redesign if I were to build another pit.

Yeah, I'm pretty anal-retentive when it comes to wiring....hence the conduit and tucked away wires.
Title: Re: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: Jiver67 on November 23, 2009, 06:06:35 PM: Neuro,

The keyboard is mounted to a plywood board using velcro. Unfortunately it is not easily removed.

you could just make it "double-face": mount it on an up/down thingy that you rotate 90 deg backwards. The keyboard visible in the picture would end up under the rotating thingy... and another keyboard on the other side would fix the problem: I use a second keyboard on my left-hand side as you can see from my picture, you could use a second keyboard that is used when you need to actually type words
Title: Re: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: neuro on November 24, 2009, 03:48:22 AM: Jiver: isnt that monitor way too high? I removed the bases from my monitors to mount them lower, and I would like them another couple of inches lower.

Besides: big screens look good but widescreens actually reduce the field of vision (in the vertical). The only way to actually enhance visibility is to use multiple monitors with SaveAspect=1 and Use3Renders=1 (like ehm... that guy with the redneck cockpit).
I'm considering the idea of one huge widescreen with 2 smaller ones on the sides, rotated 90 degree, kinda like this:

[1][_2_][3]

but that would create some problems with the Use3Renders thing, because the lines between the renders would be visible in the middle monitor. The second best option would be 3 big screens the tallest and less wide possible, run il-2 in a window and move it to the center before each game (PITA but awesome view). This solution would leave some place at the sides, so one could still see TS etc. The bad news: the lines between the renders would still be visible in the central monitor, this system would be physically difficult to set up (where do you place 3 big screens?!?) and expensive too. Well into the several-thousands. (BTW, why the hell no one makes any 4:3 bigger than 19''?!?)
The best solution would probably be 3x projectors... but besides the space that it would take, I dont even want to know how much that would cost.

Post by: FS~FoxBat on November 24, 2009, 07:12:48 AM: Nice one.
A Norwegian real life pilot also made a flight sim in hes basement/hobbyroom.
Not as big as this one by fare but fully useble and with working hydrolics to simulate rol pitch and yaw.
Hes build was also quite a bit cheaper then this one showed here, and shows its possible even for a person without a visa poping out hes ass is able to build such a fun thingie.
It mostly takes alot of thinking and tinkering to achieve.

My humble cockpit. Using Creative Fatal1ty headset, TrackIR 4Pro, Thrustmaster Cougar (slightly modded) + CH Pro pedals. On the wall signed paintings, left one Bf109G-6 flown by our leading ace Ilmari "Illu" Juutilainen with 94 kills. The right one signed painting of Fw190F-8 flown by Staffelkapitän F.J. Schoppe in Finland 1944 with 1./SG5. On table next to mouse pad the EVE Online Tactical Maps and of course the book of Brewster :) Sounds provided by Logitech Z1 Cinema system when not using headset.

You think it could be done with a Virtualbox VM, provided that I have RAM enough? I dont want to add one more box to my already messy setup. I could add a second video card (I think I have a spare 7950GT somewhere) and dedicate that one to the VM...

others have tried running udpspeed on same rig and report fps loss trying to allocate cores to diff programs- i think the problem lies in udpspeed being a 2D application- with a virtual machine and separate vid card it might not cause problems.

2nd machine works well for me as i can have game paused on top screen while i work on photoshopping on lower screen for comparison

By the way, thank you, GJE52, for your extensive tech-support. It sort of worked. Couldn't get onto Imageshack from here. I am not all that good with computers. As you can see from the next pictures, I am a little more at home with older technology.

Now having the Flight-stick centered and pulling it back is 11.inches. Having the Flight-stick centered and pulling to the left is 8 inches. I have my cockpit laid out so that I have a few inches each way to maneuver the stick. I really tried to keep it to a realistic scale. Thanks for asking!

Post by: Jiver67 on December 06, 2009, 01:17:10 PM: UCSTaylor,

Yes, that is one of the problems with doing a joystick extension....the throw increases geometrically with the length. I increased my flight stick length by 5.5 inches. Fortunately the increase in throw is only about 5 inches from stop to stop....very usable for my cockpit. You may want to increase the joystick axis sensitivity to help with the long throw. By the way, nice cockpit! I'm looking forward to seeing the finished product.
Title: Re: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: 4./JG53_Badger on December 06, 2009, 05:48:32 PM: Jiver67,
I don't mind the length of the extension. I have long arms to begin with and believe it or not it, it actually feels rather good. I will definitely play around with the joystick axis sensitivity though. Thanks for the advice!

The pillar on which the stick is mounted solves the greatest problem - being desk top mounted - of all sticks. The X-52 throttle and the pro Flight throttle quadrant are mounted on a plywood box that fits in the drawer which is kept close with an elastic band.

The saitek throttle is very nice,if a bit 'light' but works well.I use one lever for throttle,one for pitch,and one for flaps in il2.Then I have the buttons for lights,gear,bomb bay.I don't think il2 has seperate throttle controls yet for multi engine planes.

Post by: SAS~CirX on December 30, 2009, 09:02:09 AM: All these army pix had me thinking. I am posting this to see if I can get malone to perhaps post on from his days also.

I found this picture recently in an old pack. It was taken very early one morning before an operation about 16 years ago or so.
The reason it was taken if because a newly arrived rookie wanted to pose for a picture to send to his girl or parents or something.

The funny part is, the telling differences between us. :D His pristine uniform, with the regulations badges and cap (the golden bullseye we called it, I had a cricket hat in my bag), and the ridiculous "stance", and ,the difference in the state of our boots. ;D

(https://storebror.it.cx/sas/archive/sas2/cirx/miscpix/Bootsnall.JPG)

For those interested, the gun is an R5. I have 2 30rnd mags taped together on mine. The green tape on the grip is not for grip, it is a code me and my stick used to identify our own weapons in a big hurry, epsecially inside armoured vehicles. Each had a different "tell", I had a green tape on the grip, another guy had 2 greens, other had Yellow, ect. We did that because we had "fixed" the rifles for ourselves in various ways, and trusted them.

The thing in my belt is a torch. You only ever leave home without one once.
Cheers!

No, Benesov is the town south-east-south, about 45 km from Prague (49 km by the road).
EDIT: the airfield has been called "Nesvacily" by a village near it, if I remember it right.

Post by: HansHansen on January 20, 2010, 02:12:51 PM: upload it to a upload page (register before), such as http://photobucket.com/ (http://photobucket.com/)

then you copy the URL of the pic, it should be like this: http://i730.photobucket.com/albums/ww301/HansHansen/wappenka6.jpg (http://i730.photobucket.com/albums/ww301/HansHansen/wappenka6.jpg)

and click on the button above the :) when posting and insert the url between the two IMG things and rdy.

but at photobucket, it copys the IMG thing together with URL, so that you actually dont have to click on this button above the :)

i hope this helped

No farting this time, because I was not even allowed to look in the cockpit, because of secret hardware...
That's me with an F15I from 69 Sqn, The Hammers, Israeli Air Force.

132° TRF Sqn "C.E. Buscaglia" was activated in 1942, it was Equipped with SM79 torpedo bombers (you can find the skin in 4.09M) and led by Major Carlo Emanuele Buscaglia. At the Squadron's meeting I also had the honour of talking with surviving aircrew from 2WW. At the walls in the Command building there are some of the original after action reports written during WW2, showing plane's and ships manouvres.
There is also an original torpedo outside on display!

I respect and admire the helo pilots, especially the ones flying fire fighting and SAR missions. A friend of mine was a SAR pilot, HH3F, he died in 2008 when an HH3F crashed in France on its way to Florennes, Belgium. He left a 3 month old child.

Post by: RAF74_Bimmer on February 08, 2010, 09:07:54 PM: (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y121/aegaspari/525iFallColors_01.jpg)

The black one is a 2001 BMW 525i, basically stock with the factory Sport package. The yellow one is a 1974 BMW 2002. There is very little left stock on this one - the engine has been heavily modified with a factory Motorsport cam, high compression pistons, dual sidedraft Webers, and a bunch more stuff, the suspension is lowered and stiffened, the brakes are much larger than stock, and the list goes on. Years ago I ran the yellow car in tons of autox and rally events.

I really like your old lady, Man !!! ! A good old BMW K100LT, right ???

I had a BMW R100RT for years, but sold it in 1997, after buying a Triumph 900 Thunderbird... always regreted the BMW, especially when the Triumph passed away 3 years ago !!! but I made so much kilometers with the BMW : went to Morrocco, Spain, France, North Cape, Finland, Norway, Denmark and most of the European countries in my young days ! I feel so old now, sometimes...

Now, I just have a car... a very common Ford Mondeo break... not worth a photo !!!

(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/5d/1998_BMW_328i.JPG)

My car is very similar, except in Boston Green, double spoke rims and with a spoiler. I am slowly but steadily fixing a few minor issues with it. Mechanically 100% but interior needs some TLC and body has minor scrapes. Also going to chuck some M3-style mirrors on it next week. Great fun ride though! Very tight steering and very responsive engine, with plenty guts to overtake quickly on highways

Post by: mac-601 on February 20, 2010, 02:41:06 PM: Hey, I would like to proudly present my machine! The Trabant 601:
(in the background, behind my younger brother Czech-made motorcycle ‘Java’)

(https://www.sas1946.rocks/images/imageshit/dead/dead.gif)

So here it is: small, loudly and has a body made from Duroplast, a curious East-German invention, a recycled material made of cotton waste and phenol resins. Sound strange? The only, but huge advantage of the use of Duroplast is that the car body is rust-free.

The car has two cylinder, two stroke, hell smoky, anti-ecological engine producing mostly smoky blue haze and noise, and from time to time 24 hp, that is almost sufficient for pulling the 650kg weight down the street.
What more can I say – I love to drive it through the city and watch people stopping and staring or taking photos while overtaking me, what happens (overtaking) quite often. On the other hand I have to maintain it on my own, do all the repairs but I like it too, makes me responsible for the car and I like to know how stuff works, especially the one I use, so after four years I guess I had every part, one by one, in my hands.

(https://www.sas1946.rocks/images/imageshit/dead/dead.gif)

So to illustrate repairs here is the photo I like the most, taken by myself using wide angle lean and by Zenith camera, presenting my grandfather, now 80 years old, helping me previous summer with the work on the suspension. My grandfather knows everything about this cars, has four of them over the last 40 years.

(https://www.sas1946.rocks/images/imageshit/dead/dead.gif)

And I couldn’t resist: my four legged friend and me sitting on the backseat four years ago.

Post by: Flanker35M on February 21, 2010, 01:19:46 AM: S!

Trabant, those are a source of jokes ;) But kind of controversy too, it is made by recycling. That word is the ecowhiners' favorite these days when we all are gonna die to global warming. But in the other end it spews out fumes capable of knocking out a streetfull of people ;) So an EcoRavager? ;)

Title: Re: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: SAS~GJE52 on February 21, 2010, 11:56:18 AM: Not to mention that the chemicals used to produce the body are highly toxic and make recycling of the body shell dangerous....

Post by: SAS~Anto on March 16, 2010, 09:56:09 AM: Flanker: I almost went for an E34 525i, that model has a beautiful shape. Only issue was many of them here had done well over 250,000km and all them of autos (which translate to these cars possibly needing a new transmisions or a rebuild in my ownership). Great machines though!

Psycho: Its wierd with the rear windows hey, but no surprise BMW did make some which had power rear windows for coupes. The Germans just cant help themselves when it comes to gadgets and upgrades.

Anto, I have a well over 230.000km run E34 525i with automatic transmission, the 5-gear one. Not the 4-gear as it usually is ;) No problems at all! That M50 engine runs very smoothly and has quite low fuel economy for it's size too. It all depends on how well you keep your car. I had a 540i too..

An E30 with M50 engine :) That requires some work to get it going ;) I liked the E30 I had before, but prefer more the E34 chassis. My dream is to get a 3.6litre BMW M5 of E34-series..without the adjustable and damn expensive to repair adjustable suspension. The basic and raw one only :D

Post by: agracier on March 31, 2010, 01:40:43 AM: Here is shot of mine. It's a 1990 Toyota Hi-Ace Van, 20 years old with 500 000km, but still as dependable and sturdy as can be. I bought it for my business but it serves all purposes, as here in the photo as a traveling home in Spain during the summer.

Never had a better vehicle than this one. No technical problems, passes the automobile inspection each year and starts up with a turn of the key.

in it a chevy big-block! :P When he cranked it up, his mother walked out and waved her
finger to come in. Uh-oo! ;) ??? When he got in, everything, the whole house, was shaking! ;D

Post by: Alex T. on April 29, 2010, 05:32:32 PM: Crumbs, you folks have some really peculiar taste when it comes to cars! LOL

1) my dream car would probably be any good Ferrari, or the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione

2) I'm quite intrigued by the possibility of getting me a Porsche Cayman S, which are incredibly affordable considering how well they are made and perform.

as for my current set of wheels, which I'm totally happy with it's an Alfa Romeo Brera in Carbon Black and a quite spicy 2.4 litres engine which delivers a respectable 255hp

here's a pair of piccies which are not of my car, but they're the same model / colour

(http://www.seriouswheels.com/pics-2007/2007-Autodelta-Alfa-Romeo-Brera-J5-3-2-C-Front-Angle-Closeup-1280x960.jpg)

(mine doesn't have the horrible roof antenna!)

there has been some "retouch" on the EMU, hence the extra 40hp and a respectable 0-60 in 6,5".. all of this together with one of the coolest looking cars ever! 8)
Title: Re: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: SAS~HolyGrail on April 29, 2010, 06:15:51 PM: Alfa looks quite deadly !!
Really nice looking design :)
Wow ! 2.4 JTDM Diesel ?

S! HG
Title: Re: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: Alex T. on April 29, 2010, 06:34:45 PM: Yup, 5 cylinders 2.4 turbo diesel. It has a really clever FAP system that blocks all the classic smoke of diesel cars, so no big clouds of thick black smoke behind!
The engine is fantastic, when the turbo kicks in it GROWLS like a V8! The most impressive thing though is the torque: a car that accelerates so fiercely even in 4th and 5th gear is a real joy to drive, and of course the looks is just fantastic, I wanted it in red but they had it only in black ready (but in this way it looks even meaner!).

Post by: Sikshoota on May 08, 2010, 05:05:53 AM: Hello All

Here's some pics of my simpit, it's supposed to represent an F4U Corsair...

In the beginning (2007)...

(http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h5/WTE_Sikshoota/BulkheadCutouts.jpg)

(http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h5/WTE_Sikshoota/BulkheadsSkeletonised2.jpg)

Developing into maturity... a labour of love.

(http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h5/WTE_Sikshoota/SiksF4URide1.jpg)

This subby gives a nice bit of felt 'blowback' with the right noise levels...

(http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h5/WTE_Sikshoota/DSCF3233.jpg)

More internals...

(http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h5/WTE_Sikshoota/DSCF3234.jpg)

Soon after the first test flight (2008)...

(http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h5/WTE_Sikshoota/DSCF3226.jpg)

The setup has been upgraded a bit since it was built, I'll take some more snaps & post them shortly.
Of course the CRT has been replaced with LCD (considering O/H projector mounted to fuselage at rear of cockpit).

Now as it appears ...'Battleworn' :)

(http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h5/WTE_Sikshoota/DSCF0280.jpg)

(http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h5/WTE_Sikshoota/DSCF0283.jpg)

(http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h5/WTE_Sikshoota/DSCF0284.jpg)

Buttkicker has been added & coupled with a 5:1 sound (a MUST have for that physical immersion)...sit back & FEEL the ride!!
TIR5 tops it all off. Working on an instrument panel...after ages!

The pit gets a HUGE amount of use whether for IL2, FPS games, SH5 as well as a racing pit ...its been well worth the effort.

...& thats my time waster :)

Cheers :)

Yet another airsoft gun.It really broke my savings jar(cost $375).But it was worth every penny.
BTW I am very interested in firearms,so finding some replica or airsoft guns lying around my room is not uncommon.
I do do alot of airsoft for like 8 hours per day so nice equipment is necessary.However I am experienced with the real thing as well.I love to shoot my grandpa's AR-15 and his H&K USP(UniversalServicePistol).And I have also shot the M16A2 which was like a dream.I know how to field strip it and clean it,I tought my self with my G-Pa's AR-15(EMPTY of course).

George; what's inbetween your joystick and your throttle? ;)

It;s the greatest piece of equipment for flight simming, besides the joy stick, It's the Thrustmaster Cougar MFD (Multi-Function Display) bought em through Amazon for pretty cheap, you can set commands for all the little buttons, in effect totally dropping the keyboard ( which I only use for reference or comms )

Maybe trying to tell that the boring sound opf electric engines and speed do not match ;) There must be a roar of the engine to match the speed and acceleration, not a subtle humming. Am I close?! ;) :D

I couldn't get in the cockpit though, must have been a heck of a view from up there. I remember being amazed that it made the B-17 look small ???
Title: Re: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: RogCBrand on February 24, 2011, 08:18:22 AM: Thanks! They don't often let people up into the cockpit, so it was really cool to go up there. I didn't get to go into the wings, but saw he doors going into them and you could walk into the wings standing straight up! Such a cool plane- it would have been wonderful if they'd managed to get them into mass production and working- the idea of formations of H-4's flying across the Atlantic!!!

Post by: Sikshoota on April 12, 2011, 02:16:29 AM: Hello All

Here's some shots of a new plane/plan I'm working on, my latest 'Mockpit'.
Many hours of design to suit the requirements of a Flight Simulator Cock'Mock'pit.
To date, I plan it'll be a 'one of' (who knows what the future may bring, depends a lot on my finances & demand).

Main construction materials will be a mix of Aluminium (mainframes, longerons & Instrument Panels) & MDF (compressed timbers as side panels aka Skin).

The skin/Theme for this FW-190A-8 Mockpit is not historical but preferencial, meaning a blending of the historical with personal preference thrown in.

Hardware will be from Tarmac Aces and will be a KG13 floor mounted Stick , Suspended Rudder Pedals, Throttle as well as Landing Gear lever.

Construction of the 'Prototype' will comence shortly & updates will be provided.

Cheers :)

Title: Re: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: dinosaurJR on May 31, 2011, 08:06:56 AM: Sorry folks - no pic of me here (maybe you should count your blessings... :) )

However, I was amazed to see the array of hardware you all have - Sticks, hand throttles, rudder pedals, several keyboards... awesome, just awesome... I liked the set up neuro had (page 5 or 6) especially...

As I tend to fly with simple engine management, I dont need too many controls, and in actual fact, I play on a lap top (its the only PC I have)...

My 'pit is simply made up of an old Xbox 360 controller... left stick ailerons and elevator, right stick rudder... the analog triggers are for giving me emergency full throttle (when I don't have time to use the keyboard) and the digital triggers fire the mgs and cannons...

Looking around I feel really inadequate now... :(

Just recently recieved my pilots license and will be attending Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University this fall, Daytona Beach baby! Am bringing Il-2 back up to speed will all the mods I can stand. And yes I'll be good and re-read how to do it all 8) S!

Probably you recognize those photo's inside of the caravan from your magazine collection. ;)
This image was taken during a 10 days festival I visited in Gent this weekend.
'Botram Mee Uufflakke' means something like a sandwich with pig's head meat.
It's a kind of Belgian regional dialect of our Dutch language.

At the left side of the caravan there was this banner and it means:
Eat Uufflakke and become fatter than your mum. ;D

Post by: razor1uk on August 07, 2011, 08:23:31 AM: If you wanna go at a faster pace at times, the suspension might need being revalved for your style of riding, but so long as its had all its oil changes and care, it'll be a nice Honda, dont expect SP1 or 2 performance, but there's some family blood shared in design :) a great find if its as good looking as the pics suggest.

Post by: Dark Apostle on August 08, 2011, 12:25:56 AM: Thanks for the tips Razor, all that needs doing is tweaking the front and rear to my liking. It's a massive improvement over the SV in terms of "Feel". And it IS that good looking, that was taken in my driveway ;)

So here it is: small, loudly and has a body made from Duroplast, a curious East-German invention, a recycled material made of cotton waste and phenol resins. Sound strange? The only, but huge advantage of the use of Duroplast is that the car body is rust-free.

The car has two cylinder, two stroke, hell smoky, anti-ecological engine producing mostly smoky blue haze and noise, and from time to time 24 hp, that is almost sufficient for pulling the 650kg weight down the street.
What more can I say – I love to drive it through the city and watch people stopping and staring or taking photos while overtaking me, what happens (overtaking) quite often. On the other hand I have to maintain it on my own, do all the repairs but I like it too, makes me responsible for the car and I like to know how stuff works, especially the one I use, so after four years I guess I had every part, one by one, in my hands.

(https://www.sas1946.rocks/images/imageshit/dead/dead.gif)

So to illustrate repairs here is the photo I like the most, taken by myself using wide angle lean and by Zenith camera, presenting my grandfather, now 80 years old, helping me previous summer with the work on the suspension. My grandfather knows everything about this cars, has four of them over the last 40 years.

(https://www.sas1946.rocks/images/imageshit/dead/dead.gif)

And I couldn’t resist: my four legged friend and me sitting on the backseat four years ago.

Hehe, a Java, I have one in Hungary, the same damn colour. My father bought it while working in Prerov in the early 80s. Next to an old rotting Babetta our Chickens use as a decoration on their yard. In summer one uses to chill on that bike in the sun and lay her eggs on it. We never dare to take it away, once we did and she refused to lay eggs :-X
Some years I had a Verhovina-6 (UA) in bright Orange. My grandpa bought it for my dad. The Verhovina we gave my uncle as it is not our style of bike, too weak and in need of intense caring. My dad said it had his years when he was young. The Java needs major overhaul, most likely will be given away for spare parts collectors.
Verhovina-6 is known notorious, ours was well serviced, overhauled, really taken care off, but too old, a sunday bike to drive 5 minutes and then take into garage, but still driving was pain, after minutes the block overheated. In 45° hot summer I wore Levis to not get burned. Gremlins were affecting all of a sudden, new plugs, waste of money....
My pals with their MZ, Simson, Schwalbe, Babetta or Java had better joy. Long tours with the Verhovina, not really, you wouldn't have passed the next village, without an engine black-out. Luckily my pal owned two Simsons, so he offered me it, everytime I took out my Verhovina, he just kept saying, what do you want with a Mule like that, the war is over, you passed evolution, this bike too.

The Trabi, yes the nightmare of every Greenpeace activist driving behind one on the lane, his unique smelly blue haze, the sound.
Spartanic to the core and longer longevity than one expects or wants from a car.
That reminds me of the 601 our Neighbour in Hungary owns as a working vehicle, when going to the wineyards in Tokaj-Hegyalja.
She ripped off the second seat to get more place inside, when transporting larger supplies, but if you need to sit down where that seat was, you must sit on small wooden kids chair, without suspension or comfort. Now our Neighbour is a hell of woman driver, Schumacher is nothing but a boobie against her.
A cigarette in her mouth she'll take you in minutes thru the hillside, regardless how many holes fill the country side or dust swirling around, as long as you sit on that kids chair and feel the pressure of any sandcorn to your balls. You can't even take a last cigarette, as you need to hold balance and fear for your life. But afterwards, you need strong bevarage to get comfortable and feel safe on earth.
My mother applied in former GDR 1972 to buy a Wartburg, usually waiting lists were long, (+20 yrs without Vitamin B or relations).
Well the contract we still have today framed, the delivery would have take place in 1996.
On that very day we opened a bottle of Champus and enjoyed a fictional brand-new Wartburg we never had, we felt like in a bad Monthy Python Movie, but that's life.

Wow... we got an SVD (or maybe a PSL? - is it a "spoil of war"?) we got an AK-47 with what looks like a flash suppressor and one without (type 2s?) and an AKS-74... very nice collection. are they all activated?
Yep, PSL. In the states SVD's are like hens teeth. I have several thousand rounds of 54R stockpiled because it was so cheap, and wanted a semi auto to go with my troop of Mosin Nagants. Sadly no spoils of war, they will barely let you bring back a bayonet!
The others are AK-74 (Fully converted Saiga 5.45) and Romies, a WASR 10/63 and a Draco pistol.

And yes, they all shoot very well. The wife informed me that the 74 is hers, but I can have the rest of the AK's/16's...lucky me ???
And its not like I'm going to tell her no, she can put 1.5-2 MOA groups out without even trying!

I hear tell the "Polish SVD" is more or less identical anyways, so I dont think you're losing out on anything other than the "one up-manship" of having an SVD... What threw me is the shape of the stock - it looks weird from the picture, but maybe its just me...

Well, its perfectly natural for the little lady to lay claim to the lighter one - she could probably just about lift the '47, but forget full auto :)
Title: Re: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: BlackScorpy on October 04, 2011, 03:08:41 PM: Mind you, the PSL is built like an AK with a long stroke piston (based on a modified RPK or PK action IIRC), whilst the SVD has a short stroke piston system, like FN FAL for example. Having never stripped either, can't tell which Western system SVD would resemble the closest. PSL is also Romanian, while SVD has been licence manufactured widely, including Polish versions.

A friend had a chance to use an SVD in the forces, he wouldn't mind adding one to his arsenal. Unfortunetly, they're a bit hard to find and the civilian Tigr isn't exactly the same thing. :p

I only have a Steyr bolt-action in .308 so far, but it suits me fine. Should maybe apply for an AK derivate or a SIG next year, though. :D

Post by: BT~Tarik on May 07, 2012, 05:08:33 AM: This is my fathers bike...only standing around, its kinda hard to turn it on (only kickstarter !). But once its on, its really fun :D
Its a Yamaha XT 600 ;)
(http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/427928Motorrad.jpg) (http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?id=427928Motorrad.jpg)

There's also a smaller 125, which he drives all the time (go to the office etc...) etc... and which I drive from time to time too ;) Dont have pic of it though :-X

Oh and btw, the green bike in the background is my daily one :P

Here's a shot of our river, took it with my phone from horseback :

Post by: Texx on May 10, 2012, 09:33:20 PM: I bet Pixy was thinking how to skin a pumpkin head in the back of a F-4 :D

Nice to see some other bikers here. Really awsome that Harley Pixy, I wish I can made it to a Harley 883 someday... :-X

XT600 is a monster man! It can literally crawl over walls!!

BTW Milantarik I also used to go to work by bike (bicycle) some years ago still I surely would enjoy horses a lot more.

Since we are both horse enthusiasts I will post a pic of the very unique brazilian breed called "pantaneiro" (which means swamp horse). They are not very tall otherwise would be impossible to ride them inside our bushes, but have a very nice personality and an awsome resistance.

Title: Re: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: BT~Tarik on May 11, 2012, 12:24:25 AM: Yup that XT 600 is huuge, my father (1.82m) can barely touch the ground with his toetips when he sits on it. And that sound ! ;)

Yeah the horses here have more or less the same charasterictics, Arabo-Barbs :)

Here are my two boys,
M'buji Mayi
(http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/486124MBuji.jpg) (http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?id=486124MBuji.jpg)
(http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/858052bugi.jpg) (http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?id=858052bugi.jpg)
and Elgado
(http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/598309elgadoetmilan5.jpg) (http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?id=598309elgadoetmilan5.jpg)

Elgado is getting really small for me now, trying to get my sister to take care of him more ;)

They both have great characters, kinda wild but as long as they respect me all is fine :) M'buji can be a bit lazy, but as soon as he gets out of the club its the opposite, and for jumping he really has resources :P Before coming to our club he was a racing horse in Tahoua, and from what I've heard a winning one :D
Elgado is using his energy all the time, whatever you want him to do, he'll do it 100% ;) He belongs to a telecom company, they just had him standing around there, unridden. I liked him, so I asked whether I could ride him. I taught him everything, from 0 on. Last year we passed galop 6 together (if anyone knows the french system :-\), which is not bad :)

Oh and this is a better pic of me :P Someone took it a few weeks ago on some boring (but unfortunately mandatory) Litterature event --'

Post by: Texx on May 11, 2012, 12:42:13 PM: Wow these are really nice horses!! I just loved to see these beautiesm thanks! ;)

One must expect spirit from arab horses, so it´s ok they have character. ;D

You are absolutely right, the horses I´ve shown have arab blood, mixed with a spanish breed some 100 years ago.

it needs to be a direct link to the picture. Not to the site where the picture is on. You can also rightclick on it, and click "view image". Then, when there is nothing but your image int he browser window, copy the link.

and paste it between these brackets : [ img ] here [ / img ] (without the spaces of course ;)

Hope it'll work.

Haha oui, sauf que quand il n'a pas envie de travailler il ressemble plutot a une tortue ! :P

Pixy, yeah that is definitely true :P Except we have no car like this here xD we got an old Mitshbishi minibus with a lot of AntiWar stickers on it, from Cold war period :P (Dfg-Vk if anyone knows it), we got it from a friend of my father, who brought it here from germany, crossing the desert...
The stickers are of this kind, lol :
(http://www.dfg-vk.de/img/bilder/thumbnails/535.jpg)

But as soon as the storm comes we close windows, doors, everything. But it doesnt help, right nowwhen I walk around in the house I leave footprints in the dust :P

Post by: pdittrich on June 11, 2012, 04:12:47 AM: Since I've been found out by the 'Cologne Gang' over at Share-a-Screen, here some of mine.
Working like a boss (cockpit "disassembled"):
(https://www.sas1946.rocks/images/imageshit/img850/1156/p1100283.jpg)
Cockpit "reassembled":
(https://www.sas1946.rocks/images/imageshit/img254/6593/p1100278.jpg)
Nothing fancy 'xept for the fact that I programmed the [use your imagination] out of that X52. In fact the papers that you can see on the bottom left of the first picture are a list of all commands that IL-2 has to offer, and the keyboard combination and/or stick button they're assigned to. Btw yes that is a plastic rat next to the screen, and no I don't know what it does there ;)
Oh and yes, that is an i486 laptop on the other side of the screen, next to the floppys - everything pre-MsWindows, I'm not old enough to know first-hand but I can still operate it.

My very first cockpit (back in 1999, f yeah. Minisoft Flight Simulator 5?), me teaching a friend how to fly the Cessna with a Saitek X1. I still have that stick. I had to move the throttle via mouse drag'n'drop. Pain in [where the sun don't shine] with multi-engined planes like the Learjet.
(https://www.sas1946.rocks/images/imageshit/img831/5128/p1100277x.jpg)

For something more recent, this is a hack I performed with my old Cyborg Evo so I could fly Helicopters more or less realistically in FlightGear. The Potentiometer(?) of the throttle is now rigged to a collective-like stick. Connection is made via cinch cable and sockets we had lying around.

A rare Ranwers shot! looking sunny there dude, cool Stearman - though a pint might'd assisted a smile - were you 'des' (the designated driver/pilot) that day?

Post by: Gaston on July 02, 2012, 03:35:07 PM: No, razor1uk... it is PPSh-41, made by Ares company.

3 companies make the PPSh :

-Ares (AEG with blowback),
-Hexagon (AEG) and
-S&R, a pure copy of Ares' model... but cheaper.

For the uniform, I ordered it at HikiShop... nice and quite cheap.

I couldn't play dead like I meant to because I was rolling around in agony. So he shot me again. Then buggered off. Then someone else came past and shot me in my corpse-like state for good measure. It was very one-sided as well, true I'd been given a weapon, but they never gave me any ammunition.

The moral of the story is, Blue Ball ammunition hurts.

Now have a M4A1 Extended rail.

Lol loved that! That was an epic one

Haha, everyone who see's this thinks I'm a terrorist (I dont, WE dont use orange tips at all :P) And when I open my underwear draw, a friend peeks to find a Colt .45 1911 inside there (airsoft again but what ever) so yeah.

Hi Catahoulak,

no knife fight, that was a boiling water accident as I was a little boy (in the year 1959).

Since I moved I have been wanting to do something with my desk. Not really a pit but more of a comfy, flying thing. Here is what my trip to Bauhaus yielded.

Some perforated steel is handy for placing the stick lower and closer. I need to go lower. My next base will be made of aluminum. It took me nearly a year to just get around to this... so :)

Post by: Bonez on March 18, 2013, 10:17:10 AM: Here's my game stand that I cobbled together with little more than simple hand tools.
The keyboard tray tilts, raises, and lowers.
The peripheral device tray that the stick and mouse are on also tilts, and the upright side 'legs' also tilt.
It's also perfect for use with my G27 Racing wheel (used with GranTurismo 5/Need For Speed Shift)
(https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc3/579851_2939591745175_747296730_n.jpg)

Here's a view from "behind the cockpit".

(https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/599062_2939595145260_23832982_n.jpg)

The PC (on the right edge of pic) has the SB XiFi Fatal1ty Pro Titanium soundcard output to the stereo amp to the right of the TV for "blast you out of your seat" 5.1 Surround Sound.

The GeForce 8800 GTS is output via DVI>HDMI connector to the 46" TV (in addition to my standard 22" monitor)
The other device is the Nostromo N52 by Belkin. I never have to touch anything on my keyboard during combat with the way I have it and the Logitech Extreme 3D stick programmed.
The keyboard is a Microsoft Sidewinder with detachable NUMPAD, and ability to program complex macros for anything.

The input devices all connect to a little 4 port USB hub.
On top of the TV is my Logitech C910 HD video camera which is used with FaceTrackNoIR for hands free and hardware free view control in-game (Used for both "in-flight" and also for ntrk playback), giving you nice smooth, controlled pans when using FRAPS to record when making a movie/clip for YouTube.
Edited because I forgot the RIDE part...You asked for it, here she is:

Post by: SAS~Malone on March 18, 2013, 11:36:30 AM: Bonez, i'm sure i've seen you cruising the streets of Charming, CA with the 'Sons', lol... :D
pretty snazzy setup, mate - i'm especially jealous of the G27 wheel you have, but for now i'll just settle for my trusty old G25.
i've also got it set up so that my rudder works with the brake/gas pedal - works well for me, and gives me twice the value for my money, as i also love my racing games, especially those that tend towards the more 'sim' end of the scale - GTR/Race '07 series, Richard Burns Rally being my favorites.
thanks for the sneak peek into your sim setup. 8)
Title: Re: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: Bonez on March 18, 2013, 12:16:32 PM: I like SOA for it's entertainment value, but as far as portraying what a 1% MC is all about, it's 99% BS.

I wish I could use my G27 pedals for my flight sim. Twist sticks kinda suck. The plug for the pedals is round like an old power adapter, which plugs into the wheel and the wheel then plugs into the PC via USB.

I'd trade it all for a new in the box G940 package ;)

Post by: SAS~Malone on March 18, 2013, 01:15:10 PM: roger that on the MC thing - i have some buddies in an MC, 'Tarmac Troopers', lol, but i'm sure the scene is a bit bigger state-side, compared to my little corner of the world here in Cape Town.

my spare stick is same as yours - Logitech 3D, but the twist throttle does suck a bit, and i only keep it as an emergency backup, in case my X-52 goes tits-up (hopefully it won't!)
why couldn't you set up the G27 pedals for rudder?
surely it's not that different from a G25 setup?
in my case, as long as it's plugged in, it's recognised in the HOTAS controls section.
simple as. ;)

Green soup, naw not really. More like brownish mud, you can't see sh1t if you dip your head underwater where we went in. Not that there was anything interesting to see there - mud, crabs, mud, some more mud and the occasionaly jellyfish, oh and did I mention mud? ;D

I got 8 hotas so I need no more for IL 2 but I need some more for Clod and more buttons
Title: Re: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: DocPL on April 02, 2013, 11:51:24 AM: To make additional buttons work with IL2 I had to use workaround because of joystick reckognition limitation.
I interfaced all buttons to 3 Leo Bodnar's BBI and connected them to second PC, there I associated buttons to keypresses with Xpadder.
Finally second computer controls my flight computer with Direct Input. Basically 2nd PC send kepresses over net to 1st PC which interprets them as usual keyboard that is all. As for Saitek the pain was with configuring second USB throttle quadrant. I was close to dismantle that stuff and use electronics from an old yoy because I was unable to use two throttles. Finally on Saitek forum someone explained how to do this - I had to create independent profiles for each throttle with saitek soft. For additional controls I work also with Helios software, there I create some buttons, rotary switches panels for touch screens that I use. UDPSpeed renders gauges for IL2.
I fly not only witl IL2 but also with DCS series and FSX that is why I built kind of multifunction simpit.

Post by: LuseKofte on April 02, 2013, 12:35:16 PM: I have kind of the same way of thinking as you, just in another way. I do not fly FSX only Clod , ROF ,IL 2 and Lock on FC

I took this one this morning, June 3, 2013 . Print size 13" x 10". The only processing was a bit of adjustment on Hue, Saturation, & Exposure to "pop" the red of these columbines. (I always shoot in RAW). The rest is "as shot", except the watermark layer. :)

Pretty cool your throttle. looks like a DC 3 throttle. Do build it by yourself?

This doesn't look too bad. Most of the lever ends could be made from some resins or even cheap modeling clay and some ingenuity. As for the actual throttle, those levers are fairly basic and could probably be made with patience and access to a breast drill, a coping saw, a small punch, a hammer and a c-clamp or two.

(https://www.sas1946.rocks/images/imageshit/a/img31/5825/e7kk.jpg)

Me in front of the IL-2 displayed in the "Aeronautical museum-Belgrade". The original pic is dark and blurry with dull colors (as I was lazy to properly set up the camera for given ambient light conditions), so I converted it to gray-scale.
My Cockpit is nothing to be proud of, and undoubtedly not picture worthy, but if anyone gets struck with sudden and unexplainable urge to read this post further, unnecessarily detailed description follows:
"Thrustmaster Top Gun" joystick (sort of leased from a friend that got me into "IL-2" sim, as he moved on to the "Speed Link Black Widow" because it has throttle lever with "rudder twist" and also because the micro-switches on his old Top Gun are long overdue for replacement). No rudder control whatsoever (apart from keyboard), so my flying buddies call me "Douglas Bader". Somewhat outdated AMD based desktop running "IL-2 1946" currently in version 4.10.1m with SAS Modact 3.06, and Lowengrin's DCG 3.47, as "we" (me and my "flightstick supplier", sometimes accompanied by his best man) fly exclusively co-op.
As for the "Ride" section, sadly I do not own (or lease) anything flyable. And if "ride" also includes wheeled ground transportation, I assume no one on Earth (or this forum at least) would be interested in pictures of one European mini hatchback. I do store couple old-timer VWs (that probably will never get to the planned restoration in my lifetime), but they also are surely out of the interest scope in this context.
That would be all from me for now. Have a good flight and safe landing!

Post by: Maico on February 16, 2014, 05:20:21 AM: Hey fellas:
I got myself the ultimate IL2 accessory, a wingman. I made it myself(well, I had help). Can you see the resemblance?
Here I present Merlin(yes after the Rolls Royce). He just got a "Planes" ceiling flier and its atm his favorite toy. I highly recommend these. However, he is a year and half so he does not leave my sight with this toy. The prop will not hurt him. I just worry he will fall with it or throw it(he is a baby). But he loves to sit with it and watch it do circles on the ceiling. It was about 40 bucks in Sweden.

PSL stands for "Pusca Semiautomata cu Luneta", romanian sniper which looks like the Dragunov

This airplane rolled out of Piper Aircraft factory at Lock Haven, Pennsylvania, on December 30th, 1944, nearly 70 years ago. It still requires hand-propping to start the 65 hp Continental engine.

overworked the Saitek ruder pedals with realistic "german like" looking pedals ,

added the saitek throttles

and streched my Thrustmaster Hotas Hoystick with and 1,5zoll cube ,

Title: Re: Show us your Face, your Cockpit & your Ride!
Post by: marcost on April 09, 2014, 01:02:45 PM: Hi paganizonda, looks really good!

The saitek pedals and throttle are pretty much plug & play - make sure windows recognises them in device manager then go into IL2 and select controls screen. Scroll down to the HOTAS section, mouse click on the aircraft function you want to control then move the axis you want to assign. Sometimes the assignment is the wrong way eg moving lever back =increase in function when you want it to decrease. Just go into the assigned function in controls, click on it and move the axis the other way to before. Then you should see 'xaxis' change to '-xaxis etc which mean the function will now be reversed.

You can also assign button pushes to the pedals if they have toe brakes - you assign these using the saitek software. So I have assigned number keys 4 to left brakes and 5 to right brakes in IL2 then configured the saitek software to send the 4 key when the left toe brake is pressed. Differential braking is not available in all versions of IL2, I have it working in HSFX 6.17 (4.11.1m)

Good luck!

Regards,

M

And it's a royal decoration too, the King gave it to the aviation or just to that Air Base (can't remember) when he returned in the country after the quite recent regime change

Wow, Bizu, you mean that post-Communist Romanian fighter squadrons flew with a Hohenzollern proverb on their crates?

The Royal House returned in the country in 1994 right in the Royal Palace.
It recieved most of the possesions it had before 1947 with the condition to sell most of them back to the state.
Since then the Royal House has a simbolistic activity like the British Monarchy.

About your question, yes and no. They had this proverb but it wasn't actually on the planes, but it was on most of the airbases flags and stuff.
The local AB near my city which was closed in 2004 was decorated with this proverb too.
But this stencil with it was added just on this plane.

Thought I'd show you all how my two worlds collide!

This is my custom longboard I had sprayed to resemble an RAF Fighter. Photo taken during a surfing competition.
(http://s14.postimg.cc/6td20iild/10516603_10152610420465987_3225340672206462439_n.jpg) (http://postimage.org/)

And these photo's were taken by a flight instructor friend of mine. We made a deal that when I pass my Commercial License Test she will take photos of me surfing in my uniform! So the day after the test I togged up and went for a paddle.

The Surf Spot is Strand Pipe near Cape Town, South Africa :)

Surfing competitions and Dogfights have a main principle in common; Radically out maneuver your opponent (to score points or get on their tail) - but if you lose your speed you are toast!

my ride
Due to me featuring multiple handicaps I describe my ride a walking way.
No drivers or pilots license for me, less accidents.
Since my last medical treatment I even dropped my mountain-bike,
gave it to kid in the neighbourhood.

(http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah153/Segfej/DSC00049_zps06030bf2.jpg) (http://s1379.photobucket.com/user/Segfej/media/DSC00049_zps06030bf2.jpg.html)

my cat, Trixi, I call her Tricke, she's a european short-hair I adopted 8 years ago.
She came in very poor and tortured.
Actually she's on diet, due to her castration, she tends to collect sth.
and her friendly always hungry habit. She's a lazy cat type, very kind and always
on the search for some hugs. The word of stress or hyperactivity, including
at least proper move, she really dislikes.
Here I was having a romantic dinner, at first intension only with a babe,
then came hungry Tricke to join the round. Means, never leave a Schnitzel or Roulade unwatched.
This behaviour I can't solve, the foreowner apart from beating her, feeded her
from the table.
Best wishes
Tobias

you need to upload any pictures to a hosting service such as Photobucket (it's free to sign up). Then you copy and paste the link to that picture using the 'graphic' icon (below the bold 'B' when you are writing a post).

Hope this helps.

Post by: Knochenlutscher on June 18, 2015, 07:44:07 AM: You need a direct Link to a picture, I don't know how Facebook works,
where you store them and generate Links out of it.
I just took a Racoon from our local News Reel Site.
Code: [Select]

.jpg at the end of the adress shows it's a direct Link to an image...

I would simply right klick the picture select show picture, copy the
cryptic code and add image post button to see if this works.
Code: [Select]
https://scontent-fra3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xta1/v/t1.0-9/11401027_113349599000396_5220306335947127782_n.jpg?oh=bbdc666e346b7f1bd0a771627c906dd1&oe=562B3534(https://scontent-fra3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xta1/v/t1.0-9/11401027_113349599000396_5220306335947127782_n.jpg?oh=bbdc666e346b7f1bd0a771627c906dd1&oe=562B3534)
If not, right klick and save the picture and use Add image to post to upload on postimage.org,
that way is fool proof, as such cryptic embeddings sometimes work here, sometimes not.

It works, just klick insert Image, that'll produce
Code: [Select]
[img][/img] insert above cryptic code you generated from reight klick show image, voila
Hope this helps

Today, i'm visiting the Military Museum in my City, Jakarta. And Apparently its under Renovation, but of course the beauties are still beautiful despite the messy conditions

That's a beautiful Yakovlev. Where was that picture taken if I may ask? And as a follow up, is it airworthy?

My apologies to Berthier92 if I steal his thunder... the Yak is in NZ and here's a magazine article about it: http://www.kiwiflyer.co.nz/KiwiFlyer-Issue-24-Building-Flying-Yak-3.pdf (http://www.kiwiflyer.co.nz/KiwiFlyer-Issue-24-Building-Flying-Yak-3.pdf)

I visited that museum in 1981. I remember the B-25 and the K-27 Nate were stored outdoors with no roof over them.

Funny, I was thinking to start a similar post myself....ah well, CirX beat me to it.

Anyway, here is several pictures of my custom built pit:

(http://i799.photobucket.com/albums/yy279/Jiver67/Picture.jpg)

I finished building this over the summer months and just picked up a 26-inch monitor to enhance the "immersion" effect. The frame is custom built from ABS pipe and PVC fittings. Flight stick is a heavily modified Saitek Aviator. I also have Saitek rudder pedals and a CH Pro Throttle. Sound system is a Creative Labs 5.1 surround sound setup. All the components (stick, throttle, pedals, switch panel, keyboard, and mouse) connect to a 7-port USB hub that is mounted under the monitor stand. This keeps everthing nice and neat and results in just a single USB connection to the PC.

Nice looking setup M8!
The Switch box details please, Home made?

Good one Mike
Yes it is a collective for choppers, I thought a collective with twist throttle is a must, but now I know it is not, So if I bought one today I would probably choose the KA 50 one they got.

Post by: GT182 on January 02, 2017, 06:07:18 PM: Hello. I'm new to the forums but not new to IL2 1946. Back a few years ago I was hooked up with the buys on Bombs-Away.net, which is now long gone. I was a Squadron leader with JG-53 and flew missions over Russia with our Bf-109Fs. Computer problems and being burnt out caused me to drop out for a long time. So long in fact B-A closed down. Now after seeing your SAS website, the new updates, and mods for IL2 1946 has peaked my interest again. Well, so has DCS World, and IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad and Moscow too. A lot has changed since those days.

I see tomorrow if I own this one

(http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/6-YAAOSw7U5Y~SWB/s-l1600.jpg)

I want something simple with few buttons, the yoke itself will be changed into a vintage one or a copy of a vintage one I weld together at some point. Lack of space might force me to make a twist look alike ww 2 era yoke
I might even make a brake handle on this one, like the UK and Russian planes got. Post is these controls cost about 900$ new, and you simply do not spend that money if you gonna change it. Pit´s take a long time, if not it cost

The upholstery is going to be made/redone in black to match the plastic trim I have made from brown to matte black. 8)

Also an extra gauge cluster to mess around with, perhaps, install an ///M logo on the dash board or something neat like that. Maybe turn this extra one into a clock? I love clocks. Always wanted to make my own.

(https://i.imgur.com/TnWa8Md.jpg)

Speaking of clocks, I also replaced the original Quartz BMW clock with a new one. The original lacked a Second needle which REALLY drove me nuts. I was going to change the gauge face of the original one but that will be used for something else perhaps. I used a relatively cheap watch I found which was looking pretty good as opposed to the original, but saved me the need of using my IWC Spitfire watch instead, which, I was planning to do so. Perhaps the most expensive watch ever put into a car?

So far, I've technically, in a way, restored (restoring) this car. She'll be brand new from the inside hopefully when she's done.

I am assuming heavy metal. Well done. Well done. If you want to expand your repertoire, try TYR (from the Faroese Islands), Amorphis (from Finland), Ancient Bards (from Italy), and of course, Sepultura (from Brazil).

This is what happened when you cant fly planes using yoke with stick and love choppers
I am getting too old for my job
I rented myself for a week to a bugger complaining he had no operators. Me my stupid ass figured it would be nice sitting in a warm crane again quickly discovered why he had no operators.
It was remote controlled and placed on a roof in 13 degree zero in up to 20 ms wind.

@Otto: That's a hell of a cockpit, jesus christ... and a hell of a freezing job too.
How do you like your MFG Crosswind pedals? I'm still considering to buy me one.
Would you recommend the width adjustment pedals for general use or did you just attach them to get more clearance to that stick in the center?
Because in my case I'm still flying with a normal Joystick, so that separation would not be necessary. Would you fly without WAPs in such case or generally with them?

Post by: LuseKofte on February 07, 2020, 03:40:11 AM: Mgf is simply the best. The competitors are in metal but rest is the same
I have the widen because of my stick. They are not needed if your stick is in the table
But there are different torsion peaces. And you might want to have it a bit tighter than I
One will harden the detention in the middle. I feel it is a bit light on neutral.

I played bagpipes since the age of eight, saxophone from the age of 25 and suffered a severe repetitive strain injury to my left hand due to overpracticing. Two years ago I stared learning classical violin left handed on my dad's violin, and I havent stopped screeching and scratching since.

Scottish folk, Jazz, rock, soul ect and now Classical music, A good progression.

New years eve at the local ampitheatre a good couple of years back.

AMD Ryzen 5 5600X - Radeon RX6700XT 12GB - 32GB RAM

First time I went all AMD, I used to have NVidia all the time.
Took a bit longer than anticipated to get it running like I want it, but this is where the next BAT is being assembled soon.

While visiting my parents mum got sentimental. So she turned over to picture albums,
where this one pierced my stricken eyes.

The cockpit is what you see although I rarely fly now, P.C. is a Chillblast, about ten years old, I could do with something new.

The car went some years ago so it is the bus these days or walk. ;)

Take care and be safe.

Wishing you all the very best, Pete. ;D

Post by: choctaw111 on January 25, 2023, 08:34:11 AM: Some of you may remember me from the old UbiZoo and Hyperlobby going all the back to 2002! I've been out of the loop for a while and am excited to see all the great new additions to the sim! Now I'm nearly 50 and have 4 sons, Seth 29, Ethan 26, Nate 19 and Connor 8. Seth worked for Smith and Wesson, Ethan was in the Army and Nate in the Marines. Anyway, here's a photo of me from 2003 and some from a couple months ago.

Glad you could share a bit about yourself and family.
Hope you don't run into too many dramas setting up your game, which by the sounds of it your going down the modded install path.
Remember that most problems are not new and have been discussed previously so it is best to do a search first.

I also recommend you check out Mission4Today there's a huge catalogue of aircraft skins, campaigns and missions available.

Thanks! I have every version of the sim installed going all the way back to the demo and also owning multiple hard copies of each. Of all the games and sims out there, THIS is the one that has stayed on my hard drives the whole time! I've made a lot of great friends from this hobby and the various forums over the years. It was sad, in this context, to see Oleg move on to the next chapter of his life, but we still keep in touch and he wishes me a happy birthday each year
