Testing the Computer Hardware with Four Monitors in FSX

Finally got all of the computer and display hardware and I have spent the last week testing various window configurations and it looks pretty good so far.. This is all setting on the bench testing but I will be integrating the GOFLIGHT console next.. See the little video below.

Construction Progress....



The Controls and Console construction is essentially complete with only final fitting and adjustment of the positoins for the controls and seat left to do.   I have also fired up the new computer, loaded FSX and am starting to experiment on the exact view configurations that I want on the four monitors.  I have all of the hardware except the additional graphics card and smaller two monitors.. all which should be here next week.. I am liking what I am seeing..

The Construction Begins.

I finally got enough of the pieces to start the seat and controls construction.   The rest of the parts are all on the way from one source or another.  Most of the computer and monitor parts are coming from EBAY transactions.  Once I get the controls and the control console I will finish up the seat and controls frame..


Stay Tuned......
