Flamin_Squirrel Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 I'm looking to get a collective but the only name i know is komodo. Their new site was supposed to be up 2 months ago still isn't. Have they gone under, and if so, who else does a good collective? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sporg Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 There are these two, I possibly have links to others somewhere. http://oe-xam-simulators.blogspot.se/ http://www.maxflightstick.com/store/ Looks like the first one sells individual parts, while the second one more sells complete systems with collective, cyclic and pedals.

mr_mojo97 Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Or if your up for a challenge, make your own. There are a few of us on here who have done using real helicopter collectives or completely hand made and connected to a joystick interface card with great results. And it'd cost a fraction of those ready made products.

mr_mojo97 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Flaming squirrel, check my thread on it from my profile. There's also others by Molevitch and Fragbum amongst others.

The Collective Collective....:lol: FlamingSquirrel, even a bit of handiness can get you a great useful collective. I built my first one using an aluminium crutch I found at the side of the road, some plumbing compression joints and copper pipe, a bit of old wood, couple of Hall sensors and some magnets robbed from my son's old toybox. The key here is the Bodnar board.... that makes communication with Windows a doddle. SCAN Intel Core i9 10850K "Comet Lake", 32GB DDR4, 10GB NVIDIA RTX 3080, HP Reverb G2.

FragBum Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 i'm guessing that would be a collective thing,.. :D Control is an illusion which usually shatters at the least expected moment.

LCYCowboy Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Komodo dead? Any alternatives for a collective? Komodo does seem to be back , fantastic news. I have the full set of UH-1 controls, which are brilliant. I hope Rich now has time to work on his force trim system! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
