This is just using a sheet of foam core board from the dollar store. It's almost done. I have the lower panel, parking brake and trim wheel still to work out. It's coming along

Looking good! I just picked up my first flightsim. I really feel like I've been missing out.

It's always a heated debate. My son has a quest 1 and 2 and he's always trying to convert me. I just dont think ill ever be really into it. Im sure it has its place just not with my setup atm.

With VR all my attempts at a cab recreation are wasted.

I dont think ill ever be into VR. Im not a fan of the headsets. I dont like not being able to see outside of the game. I feel the same way about gaming with headphones though. I dont like being isolated from the real world.

If you would like to see the Mic in action in game. I did a video using it with OBS. I havent done much with the convoy side outside of just making sure it worked.

I've been thinking about building my own ffb wheel. I want to first focus on cab/dash recreation

Sure. It's just a button box I created for American truck simulator so that I can have things like a keyed ignition and various buttons to map for in game use. Utilizing a old Xbox 360 controller I was able to attach leads to the buttons pads and use the controller in place of a USB encoder. I run simhub with a custom dash from my phone and the lighting is for ambiance and function. My cab is kinda dark so there are times where having a light is very handy.

I really like mine. Its comfortable for long races. I did brace the chair so at the moment mine doesnt have the rocking effect. Here are some pics for a couple months ago when I got my g29. https://imgur.com/gallery/9kkFi4T
