Here’s a short video preview of the EDM-830 Engine Monitoring System being developed for the A2A PA24-250 Comanche as mentioned before.
The overall structure is done. It may still need another week or two to complete the work, however, as the implementation of the panel is not only complicated technically but also in layout and design.
Nevertheless, I am quite happy with it so far since I also learned new skills when implementing it. Continue reading
Roland (DuRo55) is a member of the well-known German flying community FRIESENFLIEGER, which is a large group of enthusiasts flying VFR and GA planes or helis only on VATSIM. He is actually the one who suggested me the development of the newly released A2A PA24-250 Comanche Gauges. Following is his cockpit with the Comanche set.
Builder: Roland (DuRo55)
Location: Bonn, Germany
ICAO: EDDK, Cologne Bonn Airport & EDKB, Bonn-Hangelar Airport
Project Notes: Continue reading
I managed to have a break during the summer months. Althought trivial things to take care of were still unavoidable, it was good.
During the period, I received a suggestion from Roland, who told me that the PA24-250 Comanche by A2A was hot and asked if I would develop gauges for it.
Frankly, I am really not a fan to any airplane needing SPAD.neXt to run gauges on the Flight Instrument Panels (FIPs). I am not saying that SPAD.neXt is no good. I just want something install-and-go.
Anyway, here’s the Comanche gauge set just completed, in which many new features and operations are just possible with SPAD.neXt. For example, assigning multiple functions to a single button to imitate a more realistic operation, etc.
Except the EDM-830 Engine Monitoring System that is a definite to follow in a couple of weeks, Continue reading
