Very Impressive. I've 3D printed all kinds of stuff and almost thought you were joking when you said you 3D printed a joint to handle that load. I'm assuming this was done solid and no infill?
This is B738DIY your captain speaking, were crusing at 400 knots at an altitude of 30000ft and if i look over my left shoulder...theres 10 minutes left on the sausages 😊
Having been a part of the Boeing team that built the 737 classic....The Next Gen, and flight tested the 737 Max... i applaud your Build and innovation sir!
@@aleksandarpantic8450 Thier is a lot that goes into flight testing. Many different planes are tested with different test packages. I understand your joke and even agree with it. The "Max" problems were software problems not Aiirframe or Poweplant ones. Software is loaded, and updated from my position as part of the Test team.
Its like putting together a king size bed inside the garage and come to find out can't fit through the bedroom door... But hell, at least he won't go hungry while flying. Just reach back and grab a frying pan and make some pancakes on the stove... One of the best flight simulator I've seen. Great job!!!
I'm a lorry mechanic. Why not get an old HGV propshaft from a breakers yard, cut down to length and weld two steel mounting discs on it either side? Something from a DAF CF for example. Simple, readily available and more heavy duty as a base.
AHH your a wise man sir ! I deal with bikes alot and was thinking of using a bunch of steering dampeners to give a bit of push back if that makes sense ..
I was thinking there had to be a better way and this must be it! I'm a 3d printing hobbyist and i dread to think what that must have cost him to print - hundreds!
I am a retired commercial pilot with mostly helo time but about 4000 hrs fixed wing, I have flown Citation Jet, Kingair 200, PC12, B55 Baron and Seneca 3. I think your sim is awesome!! I also have a sim but nothing like yours. Unfortunately I had two heart attacks and had to stop real world flying, but I still fire up my Sim and fly the B737-800 in XPlane. I also have MSFS where I have been flying the B787 Dreamliner, but can’t seem to get it to fly properly the autopilot disconnects randomly so I haven’t been able to complete a flight. After disconnect the AC starts oscillations in pitch and I have to escape. Very frustrating. I really appreciate you sharing your Sim with the aviation community. Thanks Again AWESOME!!!!!
Very nice build. Impressive that you have realistic instrumentation, switches and controls. This might be the best private simulator I have ever seen! Thank you for sharing this.
Glad you remembered how all that went back together! Definitely probably going to need some seatbelts as well!! The turbulence is going to be fun!! Congrats! Looks great!!!
Congratulations man ! Love your patience & commitment to achieve your vision, it truly is a remarkable feat of homestyle sim engineering. Bolted seats will make it secure & comfortable. 👍😻🤠
I had the same issues 14 years ago, developing a 3dof motion simulator. I have solved it with an arm the is linked to the platform and the base. In the arm there were 2 rotation joints aligned with the universal joint of the base
I've not done anything like this - but similar effect to a panhard rod on car rear suspension may work? i.e. long enough that the rotation about a point is negligible - but stops rotation around the vertical axis.
@@richardlincoln886 Came to the comments section looking for this. My thoughts are along the same lines. A diagonal bar running across the back of the platform mounted at one end to the platform itself and at the other end to the base. This is the exact same principle as a panhard bar and will eliminate any twist whilst still allowing full pitch and roll freedom of movement.
I'm in the process of making a panhard rod, thank you for the suggestion. I have modelled the motion using a panhard rod, and it will introduce less than +- 1 degree og rotation around the vertical axis which is a significant improvement over the current situation.
@@B738DIY Cool If you wanted to get really complex, a glance at steam engine design might be fun. 'Parallel motion' does exactly that & potentially gets you to zero rotation depending on the backlash in the joints. (IMO Stick with Panhard at least initially :) )
that so awesome. Extras to add now are Proper pilot seats remodel the kitchen behind you to have the gally trolleys and kitchen in it. make the back side look little nicer find a bigger house haha
You are way too skilled and talented to be doing this for a hobby. What do you do professionally? Whatever it is you must be an asset to the world. Very impressive
This ia one fantastic project and very well done! Regarding motion there isn't much a feeling of motion in an airliner. It is supposed to be flown gently so the only disturbance you may feel sometimes is turbulence. At the take off you'll feel the acceleration for a few seconds and a slight feeling of the braking after touch down, but that's it! You're never aware of being in a turn except when looking out of the window since it's flown coordinated with not much banking.
You should get a bright light that is dimmable and is on a circular track around the ceiling and find a way to get it to follow the in game sun, that would be really cool. The glare and shadows inside during day. Maybe an rgb light so you can make it warmer as the sun sets. You would have to somehow shield the monitors from the light but if you could do it would be amazing.
Okay ,, I am only 4 min.,, into this video,, and already,, the 3D printing and electronics works is , Amazing,,,, and all done wearing slippers,, LUV it ,,
Amazing video once again! I know how much extra effort it is to film all the progress when you just want to build stuff and not worry about getting it on camera. Mad respect for you and keep the videos coming! On another note, do you have a system that adjusts the lights in the cockpit to match the outside world?
Thank you, documenting ads another layer to an otherwise challenging build. I do have a Philips Hue setup to adjust the interior lighting to the outside contions. It was not enabled in this video, but it is up and running now. I might do a video on that in the future. By the way, I found you pedal building videos very interesting. I need to start on my own pedals soon
@@B738DIY Yeah totally! I would love a more in depth video about the Philips Hue setup you have going on. Good luck with your rudder pedal build. I'm sure they are going to come out great too!
At 10:42 when you lifted off ..my heart skipped a beat...that has to be the greatest feeling in the world !! I am impressed!..Whats next a Space Shuttle sim?/? LOL...1.
Hello !! Or will stop the passion of a person ??? However, there is something very important missing for your simulator, these are the seats. Kitchen chairs in a simulator at this level is almost an insult to your creativity. Bravo! I love it!!
OK, I'm 2 minutes in and I'm absolutely intrigued to see the finished result of this new joint support, 1st thing on my mind is wondering if it will be better after he adds all of the weight of the finished cockpit. I cannot imagine anything more frustrating than designing a new support that is more rigid, and then finding out after the entire cockpit is assembled, the unwanted movement returns. Either way! this video has me hooked!
At any point do you ever think to yourself, I think i may have went too far? You build the cockpit of an aircraft in your house man lol. I love it though. Great job man!
We need to all pitch in and get this man some authentic aircraft seats! You don't go all this way with your sim rig and settle on some kitchen chairs! I single tear ran down my face after seeing that. 😣
I'm in the process of designing and building my own pilot seats 😄. I have already starten on filming segments for the pilot seat build video, so stay tuned
This is impressive. I wish I had the time and the nerd skills to do something like this. I can't even get my daughter to hand me the remote control for crying out loud.
I have fixed the flexible u-joint using a panhard rod: ua-cam.com/video/VUUmvjnVUPE/v-deo.html
Knock! Knock! Knock! This is the Boeing Company. We want to order 1,000 simulators to replace those expensive ones we had and save a lot of money. 🤣
I laughed when you showed a plastic u joint with all the torsional load 😂
Very Impressive. I've 3D printed all kinds of stuff and almost thought you were joking when you said you 3D printed a joint to handle that load. I'm assuming this was done solid and no infill?
Who needs a kitchen when there's a 737 to fly!
Who needs a license when there’s a flight simulator setup?
prepare your food in the galley 😂
@@TheRobloxGuy177Some people, myself included, are unable to obtain a medical. Not all disabilities are visible.
Looks like it's a kitchen in the basement..
That is what you have your flight attendant for. They will bring him food.
The only motion sim I’ve ever seen where there is a potential for catering. 👌🏻
Pizza oven right behind the cockpit, nice!
You could 3D printing the universal joint in alumimium alloy . It is much more rigid
This is B738DIY your captain speaking, were crusing at 400 knots at an altitude of 30000ft and if i look over my left shoulder...theres 10 minutes left on the sausages 😊
Cant fly at 400knts man
Real
A typical commercial passenger jet flies at a speed of about 400 - 500 knots
@@bryansweeney1633 at ground speed yes but at crz fl it’s around 200-350
LOL!!!!
Probably the best DIY sim out there. You have amazing fabrication skills.
Thank you! 😊
Incredible job!
And thank you again for this. I showed my wife your sim and she said “ok, well I guess you aren’t the craziest person in the world”.
Your welcome, my wife does probably agree with yours :)
That’s ok. Your sim is glorious.
Don't forget too wine and dine your wife or she'll think all you think of is the simulator haha!😅😅 Mine would!
Nice rig anyway!
Having been a part of the Boeing team that built the 737 classic....The Next Gen, and flight tested the 737 Max... i applaud your Build and innovation sir!
Applaud all you want just don’t blow any whistles 😂

Boeing pay attention, when you build a 737, you start with the galley. What an awesome job 🙏🏻🛫👍🏻
And nothing falls off during a flight. That's a win.

Holy smokes dude. Every pilot geeks dream! This is an absolutely insane feat of engineering. Well done!
“Honey why is there a cockpit in our kitchen?!”
Absolutely stunning!! Bravo!!!! This is a dream cockpit for us SIM pilots for sure. Thanks for sharing all the progress and challenges along the way.
I need a friend like this in my life
I love the dedication and enthusiasm!
Holy smokes! I don't think I've ever seen such an ambitious DIY project!

Congratulations man ! Love your patience & commitment to achieve your vision, it truly is a remarkable feat of homestyle sim engineering. Bolted seats will make it secure & comfortable. 👍😻🤠
profound respect, i built my own 737 cockpit it took me 2 years. this is not an easy task.
- "Open the windooow!"
- "Ah, I'm just gonna..."
Love the setup! BEAUTIFUL!
I have a honeycomb alpha and bravo but I aint bragging !!! fantastic build, and when I win the lottery I'm getting one of those
You wont win
The level of detail is insane. Like the oven at the back for heating passengers' meal :)
This is the far most realistic simulation i have ever on youtube.. Hats off!

Crazy though, really good work
Getaway driver was told to wait on runway 2.
Brilliant work!!! 🤩
Great project! Altough i personally would have made the joint out of milled aluminum instead of PEGT to reduce wear and make it last longer
Exzellente Arbeit, solche Perfektion einen eigenen Flugsimulator zu bauen, habe ich bisher noch nicht gesehen, einfach Super.
Vielen dank!
got to luv the chair :) Nice build!
Thanks! 😁
DIY 737 looks spot on to the real thing, from the outside.
Wow, awesome cockpit. You really went ALL-IN
My this is awesome. Congratulations. You just need to find a pair of seats and you're good to go.
that so awesome. Extras to add now are
Proper pilot seats
remodel the kitchen behind you to have the gally trolleys and kitchen in it.
make the back side look little nicer
find a bigger house haha
Fantastisk jobb du har gjort her, respekt 👍
Tusen takk!
amazing what you have put together there.
I'd fly over right now and try that if I could! That's sick man!!
Excellent build sir !!! I love it ! Thank you for posting it!
I can not afford aviation school fee but I can afford this simulator it’s really amazing
I liked the seats....totally good effort
Wow . Blows my mind. You are extremely talented.
This is the best thing that i have ever seen about a flight simulator. But these chairs are s crime for that cockpit. Great work man have fun !
All of that exceptional work! And now a VR headset is more immersive. Galling! Touch controls though.
That is absolutely incredible, great work.

FAA approved flight chairs from IKEA
They are supprisingly comfy
This is absolutely batshit crazy, in the most positive sense of the words 'batshit crazy'...! What a stellar job!
Great job! To bad flying in their doesn’t count towards your flight hour, but it should!

The fact that the rig tilts backwards when you go toga is brilliant
Fantastic build, amazing engineering and great to see the motion platform in action 🫡
Thank you very much!
Well done and you did all the assembly by yourself that’s amazing including the option for a cafe at 35.000 ft great job
10:04 very nice! I like your choice of chairs! I thought you were going to go flying back at one point lol.
In-flight meals are within reach of the cockpit :D SUBSCRIBED!

Amazing project! I build my own homecockpit without motion but you motivate me to consider again this point WaoW Amazing!!
Better build quality than a standard 737, no parts falling off!
If there is will, there's a kitchen 🎯
The kitchen got upgraded to a galley :) Thanks for checking out my build!

At any point do you ever think to yourself, I think i may have went too far? You build the cockpit of an aircraft in your house man lol. I love it though. Great job man!
you could stabilize the platform even more by adding shock absorbers at an angle from the platform to the frame to dampen side to side motion
I'm in the motion of adding a panhard rod which limit the rotation
