: I have a page I pulled detailing making a flight yoke(partially, only the basic describtion was done) and there's a link to site detailing how to make your own steering wheels for PC. Here's the URL for my page(the link to the other site is about the middle):

: flight

: I've had an idea to use POTS with no center detent for spinners. It shouldn't be too hard to program Mame (though I don't C) to relize that when the POT gos from 100K to 0K ohms, with no inbetween, that its been turned >360 degrees.
: Since there's 4 analog axies that means 4 spinners or 2 modified trackball.

: Please note, the reason most of the above hasn't been linked to/said resently (the first archive should have a link to the flight page) is that it's incomplete, or I haven't worked to hard to make sure it does work! I decided to stop work on the flight yoke, so I pulled the link from my page. Sometimes I have an idea, and it's just not practical. I'm throwing around an idea for a different type of rotater for my mon at the moment, and I'm still checking my logic on it.

: I'm going to try the gun in mame after I build my cab.

: : I was first...nan,nan,nanna, na...
: : My thoughts only...maybe we are stumped...but,someone
: : knows...and it is freaking me out.
: : I don't even plan to use these ideas...not for a while,

: : Thanks for your time, and I don't mean to piss anyone
