The dude's rig at home.

How to build your own home Sim rig.

Perhaps the most complicated – and once more, expensive – aspects of building a one is the Forward Overhead Panel which will likely set you back anywhere from $1000 for an extremely basic one, to (more likely) $7000 to $10,000, possibly even as high as $12,000 for a fully accurate and articulate design.

Not that i want to build a simulator but there's none with Arduino or Raspi?

I mean, these days, if you’re good with general fabrication skills and you’ve got a 3D printer, you could probably get a fully physically accurate instrumentation setup for 10-20% of that.

If you live close enough to an airplane salvage, the switches are really the priciest bits.

Some basic microcontroller knowledge, plus wood and a drill is all it should take.

If this guy only has 600 hours, he wasted his money. I'd expect this guy to have closer to 6000 at this point.

Don't worry, he's got 10000 hours in various other flight sims

Why? If one knows that they will play a LOT and wants the extra realism. Would it not make more sense to buy it at 600 hours than 6000? Or are you only allowed to buy expensive stuff if you spend thousands of hours without them first?,

Still looking for his co-pilot I see
