enme Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 Hello I'm Eric and i'm French, I've manufactured a hydraulic simulator with 2 Axis for two person. And i like to use with FS2004. My question : How to, with FSIUPC or other, extract data of the position of the plane in real time, using the position artificial horizon or other ? Which cards can i use to convert and export position to analogic ? Can you help Me ? Sorry for my english . Regards Eric
Pete Dowson Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 How to, with FSIUPC or other, extract data of the position of the plane in real time, using the position artificial horizon or other ? Download the FSUIPC SDK from http://www.schiratti.com/dowson. All the information you need is there. I don't think you'd want to use AI data -- accelerations are what you should be replicating as it is only these with are felt. You'll need to convert 6 axis changes (accelerations are available in all six degrees of freedom (longitudinal, lateral, vertical, pitch, roll, yaw) into something meaningful in your two axes. Which cards can i use to convert and export position to analogic ? That's another matter. Certainly you can do it with EPIC hardware, but there are certainly others. Enquiries in one of the cockpit building forums may elicit other suggestions. Regards, Pete
enme Posted May 14, 2004 Author Report Posted May 14, 2004 I'm a private pilot too . With your simply last version of FSIUPC, is it possible to extract just pitch and Bank(roll) is that ? (attitude generator) . But 'i've a problem to see how and how with your FSIUPC, i can find. Sorry again for my english. Regards Eric

But 'i've a problem to see how and how with your FSIUPC, i can find. You can get almost whatever you like. As I said, go get the FSUIPC SDK. Inside there's a Programmer's Guide which lists a vast range of data you can read. Pete
pocket Posted May 27, 2004 Report Posted May 27, 2004 Hey, Pete... How would you like a visit in Sweden? I could use you here with my project for say... a couple of years! LOL J/K... of course :D

LOL Well, I've never been -- but I can't spare a couple of years. Anyways, if you tear me from my cosy environment I am next to useless! :wink: . And if you are building real hardware I am even worse! :? Regards, Pete
