I&#8217;ve been really remiss on posting project updates here.  Let&#8217;s fix that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Project update video in February: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=XZFnfHmnnZc&amp;t=19s\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=XZFnfHmnnZc&amp;t=19s<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last week I posted a video that covers the new control loader system I&#8217;m installing in the simulator: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=CUWSFDEAGdQ&amp;t=668s\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=CUWSFDEAGdQ&amp;t=668s<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The control loader is based around the VPForce Force Feedback controller and servo motors.  It&#8217;s a really cool and flexible system.  There&#8217;s going to be a video about that coming soon, so keep an eye out for it &#8211; subscribe to the channel if you haven&#8217;t already!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the things I nearly missed doing is the cable that links the SFS box &amp; flight grip to the VPForce &#8220;shift register&#8221; board.  Had I missed that, I would have had to un-install all the hardware for the control loader in order to regain access to where the cable has to go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cable is 1m long and has a 66 pin cannon plug on one end and will have a DB25 connector on the other.  The end of the control loader video above has the details about where it&#8217;s going to go.  This evening I got the sockets set into the cannon plug end, and tomorrow evening I&#8217;ll be hopefully finishing it up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/44TxCae.jpg\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The magnifier is basically required these days! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More soon!
