      @dnuno Nice, I'd have loved to have built a cockpit but sadly, I don't have the room for one, an upright had to suffice.

          Hi there James. Where did you get the artwork for this cabinet? Do you have any files?

            Do you have the artwork files you could possibly share?

              @Nic1169 Please don't bump your posts on such a short time. Just give it some time for the poster to reply.

                @Nic1169, I got representations of the original artwork from another site on the web. The name escapes me at the moment, I'd have to have a trawl to find it again. My cabinet is not full size and is slightly different in places to accommodate the compromises I had to make. My friend resized and reworked the originals to fit my custom cabinet. I got the resulting files printed onto vinyl through a seller on eBay at really competitive prices. I could certainly forward you the links to the original files when I work out/remember where I got them from. The reworked files however aren't mine and in any case would only fit a cabinet built to my dimensions.

                  I've recently grabbed myself a GRS fight yoke from Amazon US. I am going to swap out my Alan-1 yoke and usb adapter for the GRS and will be upgrading the Pi3b+ to a Pi4. I am still getting audio glitches when destroying the Death Star. Hopefully, I'll be able to get rid of these with the extra power of the Pi4 and a more up to date emulation. I'll post more when I get the swap done.
