The idea was to simulate a fake foot rest and pull table as seen in an actual Airbus A320 below. It is on my agenda to re-do this section to implement a pull out table (no intensions to do the foot rests) #airbus #a320 #airbusa320 #homecockpit #okansacli The dimensions were all improvised by looking at various photos over the net and by trying to scale things in an cad design environment. The dimensions I used in my setup can be seen below; Detailed manufacturing drawings wer

Short update from the latest developments in my #airbus #a320 #homecockpit. Things are improving. There are still lots to improve with the software side of things (JeeHell FMGS). I had issues with my P3D frame rates which was also effecting the logic software, so made some improvements in terms of settings. Using ORBX scenery and ORBX LOWI (which is a heavy load airport in terms of graphics) i am able now to get around 40 FPS steady so it is good now. I do have plans for bett

Finally a complete video of my full Airbus A320 home cockpit setup. Video is from July 2019. Almost all components are fully functional...

The final piece of the overhead (bottom Captain side) is under construction. I did not realize all the sections fully here. The emergency electric power and GPWS section will be functional for now. If there is support in future from JeeHell for other parts, I will implement/interface those later on. Some progress photos can be seen as follows. I will interface this section with mobiflight and audrino mega 2560. I can not wait to install this back on the OHD section for a comp

The remaining part from the #airbus #a320 #homecockpit #project was the HYD/FUEL section (with many inputs and outputs). This is now completed and functional making the center section of the overhead panel fully finished. I won't built some of the side parts of the overhead (such as CARGO heat / smoke). The next panel in production line is the ADIRS panel. I will try to use AUDRINO for the LCD display located in the ADIRS display together with SOFTADIRS software.
