Sorry for the side step, but can someone explain me how to get pictures in a thread already started? I always get a url window, but never a choice to upload from my own computer (unless I start a new thread). That is why I had to make a new album.

Upload your pics in the Photo Gallery "Flight Simulator Gatherings", after loading them there, you can retrieve a link from each photo (click on the photo, under the photo there is a "Direct Link," copy and paste) to insert in the "url window."

Also, look here for more information on posting pics in forums. http://www.mycockpit.org/forums/cont...hoto-In-A-Post

Hope this helps.

Hi Guys,

Again a great FSWeekend! The new 3DoF motion cockpit prototype held out pretty well. Two days continuous use (around 50 rides) without wear or tear. Concept proven!
Below some pictures


The whole rig just fits in my car!


3 hours assembly


Neighbours Ton and Douwe also busy with their 6DoF





Hessel and Vybhav clearly enjoyed their ride!


Those young pilots are amazing. They fly like it's their second nature!

Thanks all for the nice comments and chats!

Hi Roland,

Fortunately, your stand was one of the most popular sites in 2010 FSweekend , so I could not talk to you in person. You were too busy, and I have to point out that you were so helpful to everyone. Congrats on this excelent project my friend.

Regards,

[Roland]

Thanks Nick!

It was indeed quite busy, but lots of fun! FSWeekend always has the right mix of visitors for these kind of demo's. I will definitely be there next year. (with of course some new additions).

During FSweekend, I got quite a few questions about the scenery and panel display setup. Getting these multi-monitor setups to work properly can be tricky, therefore I have made a video that explains a bit more about the details, including the way the fresnel lenses are used.

Roland,
Thanks very much for an excellent well put together video. Resolution was great eactly how i like to view youtube videos. Your setup is very neat and well thought out. If you were to document it anyone wishing to make a GA cockpit would end up with a very satisfying Cockpit.
Congrats.

Hi Guys,


Way back in 2007 I had plans to visit FSWeekend 2007, but my travel agent screwed up with UK visa so had to drop the whole plan and could not make it, probably 2012 could be the year for me .
