Picked up a black wire shelf on sale and moved my Obutto to a better spot in my basement



Not shown, but I threaded a piece of 1.5" PVC, screwed in into a base flange that I attached to a board.
Basically, I made a stand for my center joystick mount for when I'm just using it as my comp desk.

It doesn't compare to 3x40" displays, but since I only play WW2 flight sims, and I use a TrackIR 5, I'm good.

One little tip for those that live in humid areas, find a bicycle shop and ask for something called "frame saver".
They use it in steel frame bikes to keep them from rusting internally.
Works here too!

Made some changes for testing out a future touchscreen monitor.

Had Mark at Fasttracksims make a mount to replace the Obutto wheel mount (Slides in with monitor atached and wheel stays attached to the other one, so makes changes easy).

I'm using on non-touch 23" for testing and its almost too big, will likely move to a 21" touch. Exported the MFD's from BMS and a few other windows, stuck my Cougar MFD's over the windows using the Blue Tack poster clay (doesn't leave a mark on the monitors and holds pretty good). Will try Helios soon for ICP and other gauges. So far it works pretty good!

Just ordered mine! Too bad it's a pre-order and isn't expected to ship until 30 March because they're out of stock. banghead

How did you mount the second throttle quadrant?

I want to mount a Saitek quadrant next to my Warthog throttle but still deciding options.
