Hello from Lobinjaevel

Hello, my name is Robin, another swede that started building an Block 50 last year.
Long time lurker but never thought I'd build an F16 pit, but I cought the bug in the end aswell!

I'm flying DCS, started modeling and building a Saab Gripen several years ago, and up undtil last year was planing to build an F/A-18 pit but got hooked to the F16.

Still gathering parts so not much to show for it yet, but I hope to make progress this summer!

Been looking here a long time for inspiration and knowledge, still being amazed at what people can create at home!

Cheers
Robin

Welcome aboard Robin!

No offense against the F18, but you made a good choice with the Viper.   

Good luck with your project...

Thanks, I'd say that aswell.
There is something magical with the F16, feels less than just a machine and more alive!

Really enjoying it!

Welcome That information makes it very interesting. There are more or less 0 people here who drive their pits with DCS.. I am looking forward to your soloution

I think it's feasable to make it function as the sim atleast, DCS Bios community support is still going strong, but I need to learn some programing aswell, not looking forward to that part 

But as several here already analysed, I'm also using a FDM 3d printer and a newly purchased resin printer for the task!

Knobs will be no problem now atleast, and the carbonfibre reinforced filament seems sturdy!
Will try the durability when I complete my TQS assembly!
