although my pit is not a full fledge sim pit, i am putting some creativity into it...i dont have a whole room to dedicate a sim pit to, plus i need to configure something that can be put away into the closet/under the bed. it was a challange to even make a long shaft cyclic, let alone foot pedals, based on almost nothing...just pictures... before i started, i wish i have sat in a helicopter, or even try out the CH Products pro pedals, just to even get a jist of what controllers feel like. i only had the CH Products combatstick, and pro throttle at the time..which just collected dust...and quite frankly, i wasnt crazy about the pro throttle when it came to helicopters...
before:
after (WORK IN PROGRESS)
i hope to finish the heli-semi-sim pit base and go back to working on the collective now that my schedule 80 PVC pipes came in a couple weeks ago..
and yes...THAT IS the KAMOV LOGO. (KAMOV is the company that makes the KA-50 BLACK SHARK, and KA-52 Alligator)
