Maxiku 0 Posted May 11, 2009 (edited) WOW! I just spotted Saitek's new "Pro Flight Instrument Panels" on "http://www.saitek.com/uk/prod/fip.htm#....fip_turnjpg.jpg" They look bloody cool!!! Has anyone seen any (pre-launch) reviews of this hardware? I've not found any myself but it hits the market next week. The bad news is they are fairly expensive and only support one flight sim (Microsoft FSX) so far, but it also includes an SDK so that developers can build in compatibility to their own products. Not sure how anyone else feels but to me it seems like a dream come true....At last the ability to build your own cockpit reasonably cheaply..or just leave an array of these under your monitor to add to the immersion. Probably more suitable for WW2 onwards but I'd love an altimeter just sitting in front of my monitor. Do any of you programming enthusiasts believe it would be possible to make these work in CFS3/OFF? Edited May 11, 2009 by Maxiku Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bullethead 12 Posted May 11, 2009 Kids these days..... Back when I was a nipper, immersion-producing peripherals were aviator cigarette lighters, whiskey flasks, and nitrous oxide for that "high" altitude hypoxic feeling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maxiku 0 Posted May 12, 2009 Ah - but I don't like to use the HUD, Z or on screen guages....I want my outboard altimeter and that's it! Dear Santa - please bring me a Altimeter that I can get to work in OFF. PS: There's no Force Feedback on that yoke but the guages aren't tied to it. I'll be sticking with my trusty MS FF2 joystick.
