A new control stick !
Hi !
I’m one of the “mud movers” of the “C6” squad (France) Some months ago , I encountered two guys , a pilot of jet to the retirement, and an industry manager. Two simmers , two collectors impassioned by the second world war.The Tarmac Aces Team was born. And we made a dream : to carry out a control stick the most reliable, most precise, most resistant possible, equipped with the exact replica of a handle having existed... We’ve done it ! The Tarmac Aces team carried out the most precise and most realistic central position control stick existing at the present time. These reports come from all the simmers (from all flight simulations games) which had the opportunity to test it at the Simulation Meeting of Le Bourget the 21 to 23 September. They expressed their satisfaction as well for its precision as for its realism of catch in hand. We thank them for their analyses and feedbacks which enable us to increase the adequacy of our productions with their whishes. This performance level is the result of hundreds of hours of research and development that the Tarmac Aces team devoted to this project, and to the technological innovations challenges. The community initiated and encouraged this challenge. This is why, in accordance with our credo "by simmers, for simmers", we wish to facilitate the access to this level of piloting and feelings at the community. Even if the budget necessary to the purchase appears significant, once announced at the simmers which had it in hands at Le Bourget Simulation Meeting (21-23 september 2007), it was regarded as amply justified by the users : ... Just have a look on the simmers testimonies in the “news” column of our website! You can discover it here : http://tarmac-aces.com/ We accommodate your proposals for a replica to be studied... |

Re: A new control stick !
Hello Trollburg
I wasn´t in the show in Paris, but i know a guy who was there. He was pretty impressed and I guess he is about to buy one. btw. Check out this youtube movie. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOx49smvGQM It shows one of our cockpits in "action". Imagine the combination of the cockpit and your stick. It would be awesome. All the best Hans Schmid http://www.simulationscockpit.de |

Re: A new control stick !
Hi pilots !
Some good news from the Tarmac Aces Team : Our rudder replica is fully operationnal ! You can see it in action on a new column "accessories in action" on our website . Our R&D work on a shifted axis base is nearly achieved . This base will be able to be equipped with replica sticks of Spitfire , Hurricane or Mosquito , and of course with replicas of multi-engines "horn stick" . We need some good pictures of Spitfire and Hurricane grips. So, if you have one on your hard drive , it would be nice to show it here . Good flight !
