Hi Guys,
I was about to post this by myself but see that GADGET already did it. Thanks a lot for support GADGET.
Actually i am creator of that cardboard cockpit and got two kids, still nothing happend after one year of their using as playhouse :), I also playing in this cockpit a lot and its still stable, joystick, throttle and pedals are still. It is from 4 mm corrugated cardboard and constructed to be solid. I already have prepared version for cut, with more flaps to cover all exposed edges and get even more stability without using glue. I also changed construction of central console and now you can go under joystick with your armchair, so you have it exactly on right place. If you want i can send you short video with me playing.
X-wing and rest of models are there just to illustrate that i want to create another types and i am not against any aircraft if will be popular.
Sure i want to do classic warbird, its also my wish to do it. There will be survey and every backer can vote for his favorite.
Plywood is good, but its way more expensive, worst manipulation, tweaking and you cannot print so nice textures on it. And if you buy some gauges, you need saw to cut holes, here you just take sharp knife. I don't think you want to jump on it
. Also for early backers there is PDF version ,so if something break, you just print it again.
If you have any questions, hit me
i will answer everything i can.
