that would have be a hell of a project.. probably easier to get the one 
in the box to work.. all the deflection amps are there and most likely 
the HV power supply as well but you would have need the schematic or a 
pin-out as a starting point.  But if I remember you have an OLD Tracor 
unit.. I looked for info on the web an found zilch, nada, zip, Just the 
crap on ebay, so it would have been a huge challenge.

For all you Facebook users.. I have put up a new page for DIY Flight 
Simulator, as there was only one very cruddy page for Flight Simulators 
and has never been updated.. So you can check it out.
