Hi Zoom2136

Thanks for your comments. The FCIProject is not just about controlling motion platforms. The original idea for the software was to control simulated flight instruments. This is the primary reason for the project. Because the FCIProject is modular it can be used to control any hardware one wants to work with the simulator.

The Flight Illusion and SimKits modules are the standard parts of the software. However, the FCIProject lends itself to custom modules such as gSeat-2.

I believe a virtual instruments module would be the one most people would be interested in, i.e. a replacement and enhanced version of UDPSpeed. This is a module I am going to work on soon, but I would need to learn graphics programming

Gauging the price for this type of bespoke programming is not easy. I believe $30-40 per module would be reasonable. I am not trying to get rich. I want to earn a little bit of money so I can buy more kit for my SimPit
