[simpits-tech] HUD/Reflector Gun Sight question

[Craig Rochester]

I've been shooting off my mouth about the possibility of driving the real
instruments that work on barometric and pitot pressure with an electronic
pressure regulator.  So... I think I'll try it.  I'll look at eBay first.  I
buy everything else there. :)

Not sure as I haven't been pricing instruments much (I'm building my own).
I use eBay as a good indicator (no pun intended) of market value.  If you
are looking to have a working altimeter for your pit, I would either build
or buy a servo driven sim instrument.  Probably much more cost effective
than trying to mod a real one.

BTW,  I ordered a gun sight combiner lens from Surplus Shed (only $5)!
Thanks for the info on this place.  They have a lot of great stuff.  I can't
wait to experiment with my DIY gun sight!

Thanks for the lead, Craig!  Found some cool stuff there!  I will let you
know how my experimentation goes.
