Roadrunner06, you need to send that to the guys at the Fighter Pilot Podcast. Pretty amazing work you’ve done there. Maybe one of their social platforms or [email protected].

@Roadrunner06, would you be willing to post some information about the Thrustmaster F-18 stick? I am thinking about modeling that thing up in Fusion 360 and taking a shot at printing it on my 3D printer.

If you’re so inclined, I need some over-all dimensions so I can scale the images correctly so I can get started.

Additionally, the width (breadth?) of the top of the stick. (Across the oval portion that houses the bomb release button, sensor control switch and the trimmer hat.)

Thanks in advance!

Video on using the cockpit with full pilot gear not the most comfortable due to room temp not cool enough. But i could imagine the real pilot experience.

And me suit up with the full pilot gear

great work, I’m starting to plan and build a F18 cockpit myself and i am wondering if you could sent me the blueprint of your build?
or can you direct me to someone who has the blueprints?

Thanx
