Sim Mk 1

Ill let the piccies do the talking. What do you think.......

Nothing is hooked up yet, but that will change. First step, getting the tip shifter working. Have another simulator to make yet, but that is a little more ambitious.

*evil laugh* ha ha ha ha ha

awesome.

I actually had a xbox 360 steering wheel, had I known you were gonna use one, I would of brought it down with me to the bonfire for you to use.

Well, the more ambitious sim requires the dismemberment of an XBOX 360 wheel. I have a full cockpit sitting in the shed. Im going to make a simulator using a proper FTO wheel. Hoping to be able to use the force feedback motors and the rumble motors on a stock wheel. Much more realistic than a computer version. Also hoping to get it to bank and also move left/right. Have some ideas along those lines.....

Nice .. You are using version R seats though.. Wanna swap them for stockies???

Wanna swap them for stockies

Was waiting for someone to mention that. Nup keeping them just in case they ever need to go back in my version R. Rather than taking up space in the shed, seemed logical to use it for this.

Always worth a try.. I wondered why no one mentioned earlier.. Surely I am not the only seagul around here... Lol...

I knew why the vr seats were there, so didn't bother asking

You don't want to know what clever crap he comes up with at work then, it's sickeningly too good.

Actually, I have very little time on my hands. Just like screwing around with stuff. And have enough FTO wrecks lying around the paddock, so why not. Besides, if you think thats bad, wait until you see whats next......

dwayne mate your a madman!

haha

now get yourself a 360 and a projector screen and we can road trip it to your house to play forza motorsport 2

That would be the other simulator im going to be building. The cabin is in the shed (was the black one). Im aiming to get that one to bank and for the back to move left/right. Already got Forza 2 and the 360.
