My newly bought Thrustmaster F1 wheel is due to arrive in a few days. So I can start mounting it into the cockpit. The seat has to be adjusted to the right height and position too. And a mount has to be made for the pedals too.
Then the cockpit has to be sanded and painted. It is stashed away far in a corner.. so I will first have to get my dad ready to start working on it again!!.
The name of this topic isn´t correct anymore.. hehe. It looks like a single seater car, not like an FO8 or an BF1. But when I´m sitting inside it I´m not looking at the exterior.. hehe.
I still have to create the right shape of the cockpit, and the seat position before the exterior is ´´drivable´´.
The car itself is all wood, I will not use the sidepods. But just the airduct, and close the front of the monocoque with a wooden plate.
The screen will probably be some second hand bought LCD or LED 1080P HD tv. And I will make it both PC and PS3 compatible. Like Formula 2010 for the PS3, and rFactor and LFS on the PC!
And here is a picture of the wheel I bought. ( Be quick, it will be removed soon )
My wheel has arrived, It feels and looks the business. Only the pedals are really sqeauky, terribly annyoing. Will fix that with some maintenance on the internal parts!
