Builders

Michael Neal, Colorado USA
Another 172R simulator project, mine is continually evolving as do many home built simulators. Currently based around Simkits gauges, GoFlight "avionics", and CH flight controls, the carpentry and creativity to bring it all together has been an ongoing father-son project for my dad and me. It has been as enjoyable to build as it is to fly, and continues to be as we make further tweaks and enhancements. The front monitor is an HDTV-ready set running 1920x1080i off an ATI Radeon X800-XL. The chair is out of a Dodge Caravan minivan and is wired (along with the platform beneath the rudder pedals) with "Bass Shaker" transducers to add a little feedback from the engine vibration and during touchdown. Current and future projects include a WidevieW system for Left and Right side views, a panel-mounted Garmin GNS 530 based on Reality XP's software and a Sony PSOne LCD, and eventually some type of enclosure for the cabin space.

When you order a TRC472 Flight Deck from Simkits, we directly start building your Simulator with the utmost care to ensure you get the highest quality. This also means your simulator has to be packed very carefully, so it will not get damaged during transport.

At this moment, we are very busy building several TRC472 Flight Decks. Here is a picture of some TRC 472 Flight Decks placed in our new warehouse, almost ready for shipment. They are shipped all over the world.

New Office

The 1st of January, TRC Simulators/Simkits moved to a brand new office. Now we have production, development, sales and warehousing all on the same premises. This means our lead time for orders went down from 15 business days to 5 to 10 business days.
