How to make Cessna 172 Engine Instruments: Flight Simulator Instruments Episode 4 | Captain Bob

[@SuperMJS123]

Your videos never fail to amaze me Cap, can’t wait to see the finished product!

[@CaptainBobSim]

Thank you! I can't wait either! 😀

[@marvinbrooks2601]

Hey there Capt I looked for those servos on ebay and they do not list those any longer. You recommend anything else for the replacements?

[@CaptainBobSim]

The Blue Micro Servo (9g) are standard and any should work. Just make sure it doesn't say "continuous"

[@ludvigbergstom9805]

Bob, your my inspiration for my simulator. Keep being Bob my bobtastic best friend

[@CaptainBobSim]

Thanks so much! Wilco, and have a fantabulous day!

[@AndreasMake]

I’m little bit curious to see why you’d select one motor type over the other. How about the x27 motors? Are they too week or to large for this project?

[@CaptainBobSim]

I didn't, I found the files online :) I redesigned this for X27 and will show it in a future video The servos do have automatic positioning though which is nice!

[@noneNone-mw1px]

Thanks Capt. You are my hero.

[@marvinbrooks2601]

Great job Bob

[@CaptainBobSim]

Thank you Marvin!

[@jetraid]

Awesome work. Very Easy. Congratulations.

[@CaptainBobSim]

Thank you!

Cap, a little confused about the 3D Build. I plan on building 2 of these. I know I will need for each of them 2 s90’s, 1 Background plate, 1 base bracket, 1 Bezel, 1 chanfer, 1 ring, 2 servo horns, 2 white needles, and 18-gauge wire. Confusion is that more than one bezel is listed - a 54mm bezel and a and an external bezel. Which do I need to print?

[@CaptainBobSim]

It is up to personal preference (The size of the hole) You could do a test print if needed, or put it into a CAD program.

[@nickbozick7594]

@@CaptainBobSim Thanks. Will do.

[@SpinkAkron]

Good job on the background images.

[@CaptainBobSim]

Thank you!

What can I get in the way of help to build 8 primary flight instruments if I join with the $20.00 option?

[@CaptainBobSim]

Hi Kaellis! I can provide some guidance in your process. Unfortunately I have limited capabilities during the school year,.

[@kaellis8250]

I need to start with something simple for which I can use my X27 168 stepper motor. My 3d printer will take care of the housing and I have some experience with graphics software but do not have photoshop.

[@CaptainBobSim]

Hello @@kaellis8250 Shoot me an email at [e-mail] - I might have some beta files

[@redlioness6627]

Can't stop laughing at "bayzul/beezul"....

[@CaptainBobSim]

Basil/beezul/baysul/bezel take your pick 😂

[@leonolasco8284]

Yours vidoes are amaizing, good job

[@CaptainBobSim]

Thank you so much 😀 I'm glad you like them!

[@leonolasco8284]

Yeeees its very simply the form that you explain everithing, i Will build mine simulator thanks to you

[@noneNone-mw1px]

Captain please do not forget to teach me about hobbs meter and how to make trim wheel connected to auto pilot

[@CaptainBobSim]

I put these both on my list of videos to do in the future, so I won't forget.

[@edwinkania5286]

Can you show some video of your panel in operation?

[@CaptainBobSim]

I'll have to do that 😀 I just got another arduino, so now I can program all of the instruments at one :)

[@Jake-yv3kf]

Nice vid 👍

[@CaptainBobSim]

Thanks!

[@CaptainBobSim]

Hello Everyone! I did not make this very clear, but I did not design these files. The author is here: www.thingiverse.com/alvaroalea/designs Have a great day!

[@brent_1101]

The camera quality is a bit weird

[@CaptainBobSim]

I agree, I'm trying out new camera settings, and new lighting. It will take quite a bit of bad lighting to make good lighting 😂😁

[@noneNone-mw1px]

I love u my little brother

[@CaptainBobSim]

Thanks!
