EPIC - The most
vital component of my cockpit. Without this amazing tool none of this would be possible
for me. This tool allows for complete hardware interfacing and custom orchestration of all
interface elements such as switches, lights, relays, digital readouts, analog gauges, and
more. Visit the
Flight Link or R&R Electronics
web site for more information about this invaluable tool. |

Project
Magenta Glass Cockpit Suite - This amazing software is what brings my
Flight Deck into the 'Next Generation'. Included are the ADI, ND, EICAS, FMS
CDU, and MCP. All these interact with each other to form a highly technical
instrumentation system. To learn more, visit theProject Magenta web site. |

EPICINFO.DLL & FSUIPC.DLL - Written
by Peter Dowson, this tool is a Windows joystick driver replacement designed to
tightly interface with the EPIC. It allows Windows to 'see' all buttons and analog
inputs supported by EPIC. There is documentation on many advanced interface options for Microsoft's
Flight Simulator. Included in this package is a custom 'module' for MS Flight Simulator which allows
real-time data extraction directly into EPIC (airspeed, altitude, lights on, gear down,
etc)! This opens up MANY possibilities for an interactive cockpit. There are many more
features in this tool which are explained in great detail within the fantastic
documentation included in his package. Just the documentation alone is incredibly valuable
for cockpit building! All available HERE. |

EMDA - Designed
by Ted Deller of CSI Cockpit Simulations, this tool is a must for any serious
cockpit builder using EPIC. Epic Modular DistributionArchitecture is a circuit board designed to make wiring the EPIC a
breeze. EMDA allows you to keep conventional wiring from switches and lights to a minimum.
These boards can be mounted almost anywhere and connect to EPIC via ribbon cable instead
of fabricating extensive wire harnesses. With their modular design they are
interchangeable also. For a much better description visit Cockpit Simulations web site. |
