Our Visual PC is now almost four years old. It was definitely well suited for three full HD and P3D. But the new generation with several 4K projectors and the MSFS2020/2024 require more up-to-date computing power. Now that Nvidia's RTX5090 is officia...

This fantastic customer project is located in a private house in Vienna. It's great that we can show you pictures. Wolfgang has practically built a private, fully equipped simulator centre in his basement! With a cosily furnished briefing room and an...

Gibraltar Airport is one of the most extraordinary airports in Europe, mainly due to its unique location and challenging conditions for pilots. The runway runs across one of Gibraltar's main roads and is surrounded on both sides by water and high cli...

When we think of series production, images of endless conveyor belts, flashing robots and monotonous work processes often spring to mind. But for us, series production means something different: technology-supported manual labour and a deep understan...

Almost two weeks ago, the phone rang on my way home. That's how the story begins. And it ends with a weekend in a studio in Berlin. The producer of „Klein gegen Groß" calls me. They had an idea in which a simulator was to be used as the backdrop for ...

We pay a lot of attention to the packaging of our deliveries. When shipping over long distances, consignments often pass through global hubs. This means that they are often unloaded and reloaded. During this process, other objects are bumpe...

We had the unique opportunity to take part in an approach to Nice RWY 22R on the jumpseat. Now we try to fly this approach in the simulator. Can we do it as well as a real pilot? Well - of course not :-) But it's an interesting attempt to f...

Today we want to introduce you to a really cool project that Jean from DLR has implemented for his in-house training programme. It is supposed to give the possibility to communicate with the simulated air traffic control from the cockpit. For this pu...

The year will soon be over. Take a look at what we found while tidying up.  The picture is from the first days of VIER IM POTT. We were young and enthusiastic back then. (Today we are older and enthusiastic.) In all these years it has never...

We are pleased to introduce Captain Tango, a talented individual from the USA who has built a fantastic home cockpit. With dedication and expertise in the field of flight simulation, he was able to realise his dream of building his own A320 cockpit. ...

Long time no see! During the last months we have been working hard and now it's ready. Let us introduce you to our new Members Lounge. The Members Lounge contains detailed assembly instructions, videos, tutorials, success stories and m...

We often receive questions about which software we recommend and which is compatible with our hardware. The answer depends on various factors, which we would like to point out here. Hardware Environment ProSimA320 JeeHellFMGSFlyByWire (FBW)FlightSimL...

Did you know that we have more than 200 products and product variants on offer? This results in thousands of configuration options for private individuals, entertainment and non-qualified training. Quite confusing. With so many options, how do you fi...

Join us on our short flight into the night! We take off from Dubrovnik at dusk and fly south towards Corfu. After take-off, we enjoy the evening twilight. We relax for a while and forget the stress of everyday life. Then we need all our concentration...

After flying in an FFS, the dream of having a cockpit of my own was there. The home cockpit project began in February 2016 with an initial email to Christian. It quickly became clear that VIER IM POTT was exactly the right partner for such a pro...

In flight simulation, the environment is usually transmitted via a screen or TV monitors. This creates a physical effect. What is straight for one pilot is crooked for another. The pilot steers the aircraft in a dead straight line on the taxiway and ...

How can we fly smoothly with three projectors in MSFS2020? Without the latest graphics card and without becoming an expert in performance optimisation? Is that even possible? In the video, we test three tools that are easy to use and can be utilised ...

During computer maintenance and when we want to try something out, we usually have our projectors switched off to save power and wear and tear. However, since switching our visual system to the new projectors, we have had an annoying problem. If the ...

Today's flight takes us from Dresden to Vienna. We want to visit our customer and friend Wolfgang, who has realised an impressive project at his home. When we landed in Vienna, we noticed something unusual that we will have to think about over t...
