Anyone know what this cockpit is?

[Stroker33]

I found this today in a forum, but I don't speak this language and don't have a clue who makes this cockpit, but it is definetely pretty cool. Here is a link to the thread, it's the third picture down the page. http://www.fousduvolant.net/showthread.php?t=40

Never seen it, but looks really nice 👍

Quite nice .

Seems to be part desk part cockpit.
Although judging by the old wheel and monitor they look to be 5-6 years old.

That does look pretty cool, I've not seen it before but it did bring to mind the Rennsport Cockpit which is quite possibly the sturdiest cockpit you can buy today. It's a bit on the expensive side though

Now that's what I'm talking about

Oh wow, is that a Microsoft Sidewinder wheel? I hadn't seen one in ages.

If your are talking about this one Coxis, it's a Fanatec 911 Turbo wheel I believe with ClubSport Pedals.

 

[Raitziger]

Turbo S wheel. I would demand possibility to invert pedals in rig expensive as this.

I imagine he is talking about the wheel pictured in the first post.


[EDIT]

Oh yeah...

And yes, it is a Sidewinder Wheel.

It always baffled me that MS were one of the first to have a force feedback wheel on the market, yet they never bothered to release one on the original Xbox. They didn't even consider one when designing the system, and the only way to even get force feedback was to "fake" it by generating forces using the rumble signals (something Fanatec did very well).

Yeah, their Sidewinder line (the one from the 90s, not the current, reborn line) was actually not that bad. I own a Precision 2 joystick and the strategic commander, a cousin had the Sidewinder Wheel... They were not bad quality at all, it's a shame they stopped making them.
