you are a genius mate. Really incredible stuff and possibly the best use of a spare bedroom i've ever seen. Looks like a dream

@CessSim 2 года назад

thanks Ben. I cant take full credit because I have learnt a great deal from many others on RU-vid, but I hope that with what I have done here and going forward can give something back.. Thanks for tuning in, greatly appreciated.

@mrmisterno1 Год назад

Why aren't you using MSFS? It has really improved since launch and it looks incredible.

@CessSim Год назад

Whilst it is graphically wonderful, MSFS 2020 doesnt cater for cockpit builders in my opinion. Check out this video I posted on this very subject.... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yRDO2ZSXc0I.html

@larryp1938 2 года назад

Very nice! Would really have liked to have seen how you mounted the TV’s on the sides. Thinking of doing the same thing with my sim.

@CessSim 2 года назад

Hi Larry and thanks for tuning in. The side TV's are simply mounted on free standing purchased TV stands with adjustable heights. Have provided a link below to what I used. www.retaildisplaydirect.com.au/floor-tv-stand-mobile/?gclid=CjwKCAjwj42UBhAAEiwACIhADjh8L1YOCrCsMw2CYA_SOU7Vk1iU0E0f-XZa7FcJv3uR4P9expfGnhoC9bcQAvD_BwE

What an amazing bit of kit. Do you fly the 'non-sim' versions?

@CessSim 2 года назад

Cheers mate. Unfortunately not. Have been up a couple of times in GA's but never pursued it. Love watching how you guys do it, and emulate some practices where I can. At present (other than continuing to refine the sim), I am learning about charts....Its a great hobby (although the wife probably wouldnt agree), and so much to learn.

@sactu1 2 года назад

@@CessSim Excellent hobby, and in the long run, a lot cheaper than the real thing - plus you don't have to worry about being grounded for days on end waiting for the rubbish weather to clear up. Cheers.

@Twinflight-2401 10 месяцев назад

Looks amazing. How did you create the wings part. I am trying to set up something similar without the cockpit struts so i can build my own strut, just curious how this is done. Lovely bit of kit

@CessSim 10 месяцев назад

Hi and thanks for tuning in. I have another video on that. Hope this helps.....ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oHm5V14NdgQ.html

@jaybeckham 2 года назад

Do you have a drawing or anything regards the dimensions of your frame? I tried but couldn't view the Fusion 360 drawing. In US terms I assume the frame is mostly 2x4s which are actually 1-1/2 x 3-1/2 inches. I am also considering a 55" front TV and two 32" monitors for side views. Just can't afford or not willing to buy 3 55s at least at this point. I already have the 2 32" ones.

@CessSim 2 года назад

Hi Jay. Unfortunately, I dont have any drawings printed as Fusion360 license has withdrawn this now. Having said that, I can possibly put something together fairly quickly and post. I am looking to do a live stream Q&A on the sim in a couple of weeks so stay tuned for that. With respects to the monitors, certainly would advocate a 55" for the front as works perfectly for the C172 frame size. With the sides, it depends on what look you going for. Some people mount the smaller monitor so it just represents the "window" which also looks fine. For me, I wanted to try and create that feel of looking around the window frame so my 55" are set back from the main frame slightly as you might see in my videos. Personal choice and depends on how you are setting up your cockpit shell. Hope this helps

You've done a really good job! Please can you tell me what kind of VGA and CPU have installed in your pc? Did you use 3 x 55" 1080p tv as screens? You use tv because there aren't pure monitors of that size? Thank you so much!

@CessSim Месяц назад

Please check out my later videos which have full specs in the description. This is quite old now and many things upgraded including TVs which are now 4K QLED....

@AlessandroAtzori-vv2je Месяц назад

@@CessSim thank you, I will check! I know about 4K ...they require a pricey VGA . I'm looking for an affordable setup to "flying at home"...but for now I saw things that cost like a plane...I mean a real plane:)

@smashabocks17 Год назад

this is the best 172 home sim ive ever seen

@CessSim Год назад

Thanks mate. Appreciate the feedback and thanks for tuning in.

@TimothyOBrien1958 10 месяцев назад

What software do you use?

@CessSim 10 месяцев назад

Hi Timothy. Thanks for tuning in. I use both XP12 and FS2020. Prefer XP12 for the flight dynamics and how the aircraft looks from inside the sim. FS2020 for the scenery.....much better IMO for VFR flying. At the time of recording this, would have been in XP11............

@pushingtin207 2 года назад

Very nice setup...when will you invite me for a flight...I live in Perth (Attadale)

@CessSim 2 года назад

G'day and thanks for tuning in. Been listening to your controller podcasts of late and learning so much from you so thanks for that. Given you are a local here in WA be great to get you to have a crack on the sim sometime....lets keep in touch. When/where are you controlling next? I would love to spend a bit of time in your airspace? I use the call sign VHJAE. (just listen to the one who makes out he knows what he is doing but doesn't !)

@kingsimaviation 2 года назад

Love your custom cockpit built well done. Can you provide me with a ruff size dimensions if possible thanks

@CessSim 2 года назад

Hi and thanks for watching. Appreciate the feedback. The shell is roughly 1350mm wide (incl side TV's), 1550mm high, and 2050mm long. Note I havent included the operator station in these dimensions. Hope this helps.

Beautiful setup ,could you share how far your front tv is from the front of your instrument panel.,and the top of the front tv from the floor of the sim ,thanks if you can ,love the channel

Thanks John. I away for work for the next few days and will get back to you on the weekend. Appreciate your support of the channel.

HI John. Sorry for the delay. Front of TV screen to front of panel is approx 160mm. Top of front TV to floor of sim is approx 1430mm. Hope this helps you.

@mitch_the_-itch Год назад

Do you suppose a 13700k/4090 combo would run this on 3-55 4k TVs?

@CessSim Год назад

HI mate. A lot of variables when it comes to discussing this. What Sim? What FPS you want to target? What graphical setting? I would assume you want the best of the lot. In my experience at present, XP12 even with the best of single PC equipment would struggle to get a solid 30FPS across 3 4K screens. Sim needs to deliver a min of 30FPS IMO to deliver a playable experience. I have a 12900K + 3090Ti and I get circa 40FPS across 3 x 1080P to give you an idea.....

@mitch_the_-itch Год назад

@@CessSim Finding 1080P TVs is getting rather difficult nowadays, lol.

@CessSim Год назад

@@mitch_the_-itch Always run the 4K in 2K or 1080P. I will be looking to upgrade my 1080P TVs at some point....
