My sim is a 737NG running off of x-plane + project magenta. I intend to move from x-plane 9 to 10 when released later this year.

For now, I've been woodworking and these are the fruits of my labours so far. I have built the base from 18mm structural plywood raised on 47mm x 75mm blocks, with closer spacing on the rear seat, walk and console area and support under key load areas such as the mid mip line.

I also have a couple of bits on order atm. Once they get added in I'll post more updates. The whole Album can be seen here: http://s946.photobucket.com/albums/ad303/kesomir/Flightdeck/

Hi,
One question. Do the base of the yoke get in the way of the rudder pedals?
I have the same kit and when I get round to putting it into my pit I am going to raise the rudder pedals to the same height as the yoke.

Not at all. My saitek pedals I raise up enough to clear the usb cable and butt against the back end.

I did consider counter sinking the base, but then the yoke would be too low unless I extend it.

Revolution simproducts pedals also fit the ACE yoke I believe with the detachable front runners removed, or possibly raised the base plate height to clear.
