AdamG Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 Hi controllers out there! ;) As i mentioned in my last post I'm really interested in ATC and I want to build my own DIY "ATC simulator". For software I want to use Tower!3D but i'm not sure that it supports more monitors . At the other side I want to ask for help guys by building it. I mean if WE could collect what is needed in a control simulator that would be amazing! So firstly can someone help me find out what i'll need to build a realistic ATC simulator? It doesn't need to be look really professional, it needs to be useful because i only want to use it for private use. ... So, what else? Oh yes! After we'll know what we need for it i'll start building it. I need guys your help by building it! I'm not a pro at wiring and stuff like that. If someone is, he/she can help me in the forum too! But i'm happy to have EVERY help! So what do you think guys? Can we do it? My budget for this project is max. 200$ for the start. Maybe in the future i'll have more money for it!

Avwriter Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Adam, Be aware that Tower3D does not work with multiple monitors, so you will definitely need the soon to be released Tower3D Pro. Vic here has confirmed that the Pro version will support multiple monitors, but he has not stated how many monitors it will support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikal Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Regarding Tower3d simulation. I have built them before back in the 90's. Does anyone remember BAO tower. Which later became MAI tower (me). If we put our minds together we can get a full thing going. . Similar to the tower training facilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi mikal, What hardware did you used in that build? I mean, ehat was there ? A computer for sure, but were there other controllers and/or microcontrollers? Aand what is actually needed to build a full simulator for home use? Do you have ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
