Yes, I export the MFD's from the game 'real-time' when flying the A-10.  I haven't done it in a while so may have to tweak some stuff if any related files have changed, but I can help anyone set it up if they want to try it.  Be advised that it will put more load on your graphics card.

A few tweeks and some cosmetic work and it will be done.  Works great.  A much more natural feel.  About $15.00 and change.

I'm thinking maybe primer gray ought to do it.

Go on EBay and find a UH-1 collective control head, or maybe one from a Sikorsky S-61. The S-61 is more like a pistol grip. On second thought, it would add an awful lot of weight to that end of the stick and you'd probably never be able to let go for fear of entering autorotation!!

I'm really liking it.  It's not perfect by all means but very functional.

Dine.

[AG-51_Bulldog]

Thats awesome Thud...

[AG-51_Animal]

Very cool.  You can go to the sporting goods store and buy some hockey stick grip tape.  Think it would work well for the handle and be very inexpensive.

Excellent idea Animal!!    That will come in real handy when Thud is trying to land on the back of the USS Patuxent    

[AG-51_Thud]

Haha. Looms cool and works great. But it still requires skill to fly these worly thingees.

Now if you can just figure out how to get your twist throttle to work along with a couple switches and HAT... I am glad I never got rid of my 52 pro.. When my life lets me a may just do a little de construction for parts...

[AG-51_Thud]

Thats a 52 throttle. I removed the piece that causes the 25 and 75% indent. Added autostart to a button. Easy pz.
