I am a flight simulation hobbyist currently working on building instruments, gauges, radios and controls for a C172. As of | I am a flight simulation hobbyist currently working on building instruments, gauges, radios and controls for a C172. | ||
As of Feb 1, 2018: | |||
* I've done only a few prototype circuits | |||
* have been working to develop skills I'll need to produce a realistic cockpit. | |||
* Developing skills in Fusion 360 to support 3d Printing and 3d machine tools. | |||
* Working on tests for a cluster based on Raspberry Pi Zeros | |||
* Beginning to use a 3d Router | |||
* Milling into thin prisms and hand polishing disks of plexiglass for illuminating dials in Sim Instruments | |||
Recently I began the effort to fully understand the skills needed to contribute to the Flightgear project's codebase. I know c++ from a course in the early 90's. I'm looking at Kdevelop and QTquick as development tools. | |||
My area of interest is in Flightgear's code includes: | |||
* telnet | |||
* phi | |||
* any method to set or get a property | |||
* the property tree itself | |||
* configuration files | |||
* command line parameters | |||
I'll be working on the interface between Flightgear and low level hardware in a panel or cockpit. It is my understanding that others, including core flightgear developers are also working on this and my efforts will follow, derive from, depend on and I hope contribute in some small way to their work. | |||
I'm also working on | |||
