Some friends are curious about how my C172 Integrated Gauges all together look in real simulator. Here are four quick videos showing how they perform from Engine Startup, Taxi, Take-off to Maneuver. Background airport is Bowerman KHQM in the United States. Simulator is Prepar3D v25 with the free Bowerman airport addon from Orbx.
Truly, since my one hand Continue reading
Was originally planning to add the Automatic Installer to all my existing paid-gauges after the release of the coming AirSpeed Indicator and Turn Coordinator later this month. Due to receiving some immediate requests, revisions has been put upfront.
With this Automatic Installer, all user needs now just to unzip the package, and then click and run the utility. That’s it.
The installer will add the new gauge to the END of the existing gauge list and modify the SaiFlightSimX.xml under DirectOutput folder automatically. Original SaiFlightSimX.xml will be backup automatically too.
DO NOTE THAT Continue reading
Here’s the preview screenshot of the last two C172 gauges, AirSpeed Indicator & Turn Coordinator, which are to complete my Integrated Project to include all C172 gauges on just seven FIPs since the middle of last year.
They are being fine-tuned and should be ready within the next couple of weeks. One thing noteworthy is that these two new gauges will come with an automatic installer. Continue reading
My time is still mostly tied up on my grandson lately. However, I am slowly gaining back some time on flightsimming now. Just clean installed the latest Prepar3D version 2.5 onto my computer last week. Similarly, I can put hands onto my unfinished C172 integrated gauge project again.
To render more weather information associated with the Wind Magnitude on the 
Heading Gyro gauge, Engine Hours originally on the gauge has been replaced by Visibility as previously mentioned in the note of the gauge’s last update.
The removed Engine Hours will be put onto the coming Airspeed Indicator instead.
Since this update, same as the last one, is supplemental, users are free to keep their existing one or to choose any of the three versions of their choice. Switching among them is easy too.
The newly released Heading Indicator with Compass & RPM has just been updated to include a digital display for Wind Magnitude. The extra feature is so added to show the full picture of wind movement as some of the current users who quoted to request.
Notification and update patch has been sent to all existing users. Next possible feature for the gauge might be the Visibility but not sure yet.
Anyone interested in this Heading Gyro with Compass & RPM could Continue reading
This Heading Indicator is the fifth gauge in my Integrated Series for the Cessna 172. Next to the Heading Gyro is a small but clear enough Magnetic Compass, which is so layouted to provide a quick reference when performing gyro calibration.
The RPM indicator, although in compact size as well, is placed in a location closing to the real cockpit layout in full-size. A digital RPM representation is also added for more precise control needs.
Furthermore, a Blue Color Pointer, Continue reading
Following the update of the Enhanced Fuel Gauges a couple of weeks ago, the remaining paid gauges — Altimeter with VORs, Attitude Indicator with Annunciator Panel, and Vertical Indicator with ADF — have all been updated to include the blackish metallic background as well. Current users should have found the Download links for the new gauges in their mailboxes already.
In addition, a brown color version shown above Continue reading
This is my first FIP gauge for multi-engines, which was earlier requested by Rune
Koppen who lives in Norway. It is a replica of the RPM gauge on his favorite Twin Piper Navajo. The gauge is not a complicated one but still requires some times and efforts on the graphics side.
On this celebrating Christmas time, the gauge Continue reading
The Enhanced Fuel Gauges has just been updated to include a blackish metallic background instead of the earlier pure black color background. Valid users should have found the Download link of the new gauge in their mailbox already.
Similar metallic touch to Continue reading
