Suncom F-15 - new gimbal pursuit

Hi!!

In 2016, I ask Sokol about the possibility of make a new gimbal to Suncom F-15 joystick.

After some advices, I started the project. Not finished yet, but, in progress.

So, I decided to share some pictures.
















Almost finished:











Final touch:

Nice!

love how these old sticks are given new life.

Looks like a good job done there, well done

That's pretty cool. I've been kicking around doing the same thing with my cougar

Hi Steve_F!

Thank you. You´re welcome. I will post new topics of my work im my other old stuff.

Hi Ltfransky!

I encourage you to do it. Cougar is a really nice stick!

Try to use aluminum instead of steel. Aluminum will make the thing go less difficult. 1/4" thickness is a good choice.

Update (in the 'caput'). Eletronic and usb test.

Please sell me one ? i live in finland

Hi Haukka81!!

I'm flattered!

Unfortunately, I have very little time to work in this type of activity.
This one take me several hours to do (of the few that I have left).
I would like to do more, but my job and my family do not leave me much time to spare currently.

But, as you live in Finland, you can access great products like:
- VBK (https://flightsimcontrols.com/store/)
- Virpil (https://virpil.com/en/)
- Baur (http://avia-sim.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=758). Review: http://www.mudspike.com/review-brd-n-black-stork-joystick/
