Scaling back plans a bit and going with GoFlight

[BTilson]

Hello all,

I had been considering for a while now the idea of building a fully enclosed cockpit ala John Baymore's setup, but due to both space constraints and real life events (new baby on the way!) I have decided to throttle back a bit and build up a deskpit composed of GoFlight modules. I did a bit of reading on their site and all the GoFlight modules seem to be very cool products. I know they are rather popular, so I was wondering if I could get some input from people here who have used them. I was also wondering if GoFlight modules require FSUIPC to function? Any recommendations on where to start? I am thinking of buying a couple of their full sized vertical racks to set on either side of my monitor. I measured out my desk space in relation to the size of those racks, and it is going to be a very nice fit I think. Once I combine that with a nice yoke and throttle quadrant, I feel that I'll have quite the nice deskpit setup.

Any input or advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

BTilson,

In some ways, such a setup might actually be looked at as a good place to START on developing a simpit.

I think one bad thing about GoFlight... just from looking at it... is that it looks pretty expensive for what it is. FSUIPC seems to be only like $24 (
