I get asked about my simulator all the time. In this video I give a brief overview of all the parts and pieces as well as some home flight simulator history. Here are some of the components and software that I use and love.
- X-plane Flight Simulator Software (awesome!)
- ForeFlight (Integrates NICELY with Xplane – Must Have!!)
- Desktop Aviator (Electrical panel, flaps and landing gear)
- XP-Reality (GTN650/750 and GNS430/530 Garmin Navigator Simulations)
- X-Force Flight PCs
- GoFlight (Autopilot Module) – Recently changed owners, rumors of limited product availability
- AirManager (Used to display primary flight instruments on the center touch screen)
- Carenado Piper Saratoga II (Current Go To airplane. Mimics my RL airplane very nicely!)
- Rudder pedals
