Upgraded Sim Pit!

Post by Cr33p3r »

My lovely wife got me a nice LG 1080p 34" ultrawide monitor to replace my 24" monitor. I'm super excited!

He can if he's flying something like a P-38 or a PE-2!

Thanks. It's taken me years to get to this point and my wife is to thanks for allowing me to invest in my primary hobby.

Those plastic models are 1:200 scale from mostly flight miniatures.com. the q400 is 1/100 scale though. They're not glue together, you just affix the wings and tail.

I use tuis for everything. I have a split keyboard for fps games so I dont have to hang my arms up on the yoke.

The bravo throttle quad has interchangeable levers which makes things easier for different aircraft. Yes I use it for helos too. The small flight info displays don't work with DCs despite many people trying to get them to. They are great for xp11.

Yes I fly combat with it. It's a bit different than a stick but I've gotten used to it. Now that I have a bigger display I can actually see things.

Have you flown DCS with the wide monitor yet? How do you like it? Is it 1080 tall?
