tc223 0 Posted December 6, 2003 Was wondering with those of you flying with a HOTAS rig. How do you have yourself arranged? are your controls on your desktop or have you come up with creative ways to get comfortable? I'm trying to brainstorm a pedestal setup for the left/right sides of my chair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy_BIA 0 Posted December 7, 2003 I actually bought a chair. I figured if I'll pay for that Track IR thing I might as well get a chair. Only $200 but it really rocks. http://www.edimensional.com/products/chair.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Solo 0 Posted December 14, 2003 Hey all, A popular pit the around the globe is the AB Mk I (Akers/Barnes Mark 1) designed by a mate of mine up in Queensland, Australia. My LAN squad currently uses 4 of these and another 3 are in planning stages. Tons of other guys round the world use these as well. You can slap one of these together in a weekend and they'll fit any type of HOTAS setup (we currently have guys using Cougars, CH, Saitek and older Thrusty stuff). They pull apart/push together in about 10 mins so are perfecto for travelling along to LAN meets as well as looking pretty neat at home (regardless of what my wife says!). In fact, I'm parked in mine now. :P To get an idea on what it takes to put one of these babies together click on over to: VFS-77 AB Mk I cockpit building To get an idea what they look like in a display click on: VFS-77 Pit images Finally, to get your hands on further info and the plans go to: 62nd FF's construction page Cheers all.

Typhoontony 0 Posted January 3, 2004 Check out this site for a setup. It's called a H.O.T.A.S.S. No rude comments please http://www.combatsim.com/htm/nov99/hotass2.htm#cont Tony Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
navychief 1 Posted January 3, 2004 The H.O.T.A.S.S. website url keeps going to EBAY. Not sure what's going on with that. I cannot access the actual website for the manufacturer. NC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
