    USB Challenge for my Flight Sim Cockpit

    Tomorrow I will get a USB Hub Controller, let me see if that helps. I am also saving money every month to purchase a new GPU. I am thinking about an RTX 5ß80 Super. I am also thinking that a new GPU with photonics. This will reduce the power consumption as it replaces copper connection beween...

    USB Challenge for my Flight Sim Cockpit

    Thanks Harald. I will look for USB root controllers. That is the kind of thing I was looking for. Now I will investigate.

    USB Challenge for my Flight Sim Cockpit

    Thanks for responding. According to the guesses of a good friend, it might be that W11 Pro feels this might challenge W11 Pro.

    USB Challenge for my Flight Sim Cockpit

    I am not sure if I am right here, so please move to where it might belong! I am running a PC with an i7 11700k CPU, an ASUS ROG Maximus XIII, and an RTX 3080 GPU. For this cockpit, I need a pretty large number of USB devices. To give you a general view: 5 Monitors, each with a USB port, 8...

    I am deeply involved in making a cockpit for flying with MSFS 2020

    I had to deal with immersion and VR Googles about 25 years ago when dealing with real 3D sound. It was a tool developed by a small company in California for military use. It computed the sound to be supplied to the earphones by using a model of s standard human head and the reflections and...

    I am deeply involved in making a cockpit for flying with MSFS 2020

    As usual, I try to figure out what is the path to add or modify peripherals that are fed by the flight simulator. I have purchased a bunch of peripherals and by the time I get to the intended end working on my workshop and on setting up the cockpit. The first step in getting into the electronics...

    Force Feedback for i.e. Logitech Yoke

    So, I have made my decision which I want to share with you. Here is the link to the device I bought and which is scheduled to arrive on Monday: As you can see the yoke is very expensive and yes, it is done using brushless motors. Flying with MSFS2020 is the best left for me after health and...

    Looking for replacement for the connector that plugs into bltouch

    I have problems getting the connector that plugs into the BLTouch unit on my Creality Ender 5 Plus. On eBay or Amazon, I would have to spend 8 to 10 Euros. Usually, a problem I am asking you to help me with can be solved when knowing the correct name for the part. I would be looking for the...

    Force Feedback for i.e. Logitech Yoke

    Yeap! My purpose is to have the MSFS airplane work like I was used to and what is required to be able to land in Jesenwang. In Jesenwang by your procedure, you are prone to have an accident by moving over the end of the runway.

    Force Feedback for i.e. Logitech Yoke

    Dear Bluejets, there is an important difference between GA airports in Europe and the ones in the USA. Runway in Jesenwang, EDMJ, 1437 ft x 39 ft (438 m x 12 m), displaced threshold 98". To land with a CESNA 172 demands to have a very low speed of the plane. Landing a PA-28R i.e. where the...

    Force Feedback for i.e. Logitech Yoke

    Dear Alec. You are right. But sadly I do not consider myself being capable to integrate a solution so that it gets information from the sim. So the idea is kind of quick and dirty. I find it especially disturbing during the final stage of a landing. I learned to fly in Germany, Jesenwang, a very...

    Force Feedback for i.e. Logitech Yoke

    First of all: What high-value feedback you are giving to me! Thx a lot. The ideas for the spring are very interesting. I will reflect on it. The same is true for the concept Martin is presenting. Whoww! I am now even more motivated to advance the work on my workshop and my PC to do experiments...
