Peter Thomas, Brisbane, Australia
This cockpit started 6 months ago, when I purchased a couple of goflight modules. From that I added gauges from Simkits and an xkeys keyboard encoder. As I wanted to drive gauges for a twin engine and led indicators I added a 32 Port interface module and 4 port servo module from Phidgets. Added some VB code and freefd and here it is, a general purpose simulator. The Phidgets and Freefd are driven on a second computer using FSUIPC. Now that the Simkits SDK has been released I've added code to drive the guages from Falcon 4. Upgraded the Thrustmaster FLCS to a Cougar. The top three screens are driven off a Matrox Parhelier on the main computer, the lower screen is driven by the second computer.

The primary programs I use are FS2004, Flanker 2.5 and Falcon 4 .

The photos show the progress of the Cockpit from the hunks of wood (just to see if it would really work:)), the building of the frame. the testing of the electronics, through to finally flying.

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.
