Wow !!! 👍👍👍

where did you get everything from so i can make a cockpit

man what a fantastic setup, shame you butchered it all with the mastrubation goggles. nice work with the 3d printing

How much would you sell one for? I'm interested.

There should be a way to render a custom (back) view camera to your live OBS greenscreen background.

Just bloody fantastic, your immersion must be intense! 😍😍😍 The work that has gone into your rig is incredible, absolutely incredible!!

Amazing!! And Hi from Australia. How do you get the white writing in those 3d prints? You probably have info in your links as to where you buy all the special knobs and switches

I made it a minute into the video before I realized that he has VR glasses on, yet still an amazing physical cockpit layout. Does the VR let you see through the goggles so you can interact with the physical hardware? The kid in me who wanted to be a fighter pilot, and the adult in me trying to learn how to replicate the dream as best as possible have so many questions.

BRO I LOVE THIS VIDEO I CANT STOP WATCHING IT CAN YOU MAKE LIKE I DONT KNOE MAYBE A TUTORIAL OR HOW TO MAKE IT?

This is an amazing build! I’d love to do something like this but it’s way out of my league! Lol I love the laser engraving/backlighting combo that you created. I’m thinking of getting a pit too. Monster Tech has a lot of good reviews but their kits are a little too pricey. I think SimFab’s DCS edition might be the best choice for the money.

Wife wanted a kitchen island, got a Cockpit instead :) Jokes aside, sick setup! Well done!

yeah yeah screens need be potrait mode it tells that on simapppro. ddi amd ampcd is recognized and setup correct position. in game only ampcd buttons are binded but it controll right ddi. left and right ddi not binded. also ufc display only show default all lights. and all those usb cables uf uf. its awesome but worthless when not work

Fuck, this video is (eventually) going to cost me a lot of time and money

SimApp Pro is absolute rubbish. I wish there was an alternative. I've had nothing but trouble with it, crashing, locking up by PC and just plain not working. Is there ANY alternative?

I see the reloading equipment 👍

Anyone else having map issues with this setup? I just got the MIP setup and now my map is about a third of the screen and to the left. Also when I try to click on map icons I have to click about 7 inches to the right of the icon I want to click on. Not sure how to fix this. Lastly, the F16 DED is about 2 seconds slow when I try changing anything. There's a delay. Not sure why either.

Did you have to change the prints to adapt to the winwing mfd

Still looking good, Jon

where can i find that damper mod for the tpr pedals?

0:58 no need buy again new new LOL. only need finger tracking. who is first invent it

if i had real cockpit i would have 3 projectors

VR and real cockpit not thing. need make choise VR or real cockpit

Hi John. Loving this and in the process of my build. I am going down the route of the WinWing UFC and MFD and HUD unit as you have. And to be honest at the price its just as cheap to buy them than 3D print. Do you have the modified STL for mounting these. Everything else I am going to continue 3D printing. Thanks.

Did you design the right and left Consol your self? Or did you use plans? I want to box out my simulator to save room

My goodness !!!! No way! Certainly a passionate about this sim. Some of us can only wish we could. One day God willing. One day! I bet you learned so much more about the build process, the sim itself and a deeper appreciation for the F18 whilst dedicating your time and effort into your creation. This certainly your baby! Excellent work mate! True work of art! I am interested as to what your background is, most of these sim builds I see these guys are not your ordinary blokes. Some are engineers, pilots, computer programmers or developers and such. Truly awesome Inspiring nonetheless. You have got my sub sir!

Beautiful cockpit. Do the Winwing MFDs cause an un-pure client (fail an integrity check) string when you try to log onto a PVP or PVE multiplayer server like Growling Sidewinder?

Starting to build the park brake but cannot see the switch used in the body. Can you show what it is. Thanks

Greenscreen overlay. That is how i have seen mixed reality done. Basically everything you dont want to see use green screen cloth and paint to cover it up. You could make multiple cockpits and switch them like controllers out of the green screen space you build. I have seen it done with car simulators. Different wheel, seat, pedal setups that can be swapped out. The interior of the car and everything outside is VR, but the seat, stick shift pedals and wheel are real.

replace your speakers with the older B&W DM110 speakers, much much much better speakers, like 1000% better. and like 1/8th of the price. TPA3116 amp like breeze audio is good enough to power it.

hello i tryng to build my own cockpit, but i dont have any experience with 3d modeling. I would ask you iif you can send me the project of the right and left panel, like ecs, and the other. If you do that im would be really happy. If you want i can give you my mail

Do you have the files available for the 3d printed parts around the mips?? And the files and parts used

WOW

Wife: "Thank goodness you've finished your airplane thing. Now we can start saving some money." You: "Well...Still need to build the F-14, the F-16, the F-15...

Your "family mission editing" PC is a better setup than my main PC lol.

At the 9:19 mark of your video, you show the bottom screen attached to complete the center console. That is the problem I am having, how do you attach the hud to the bottom unit?

This is so cool

year later i salute you nice build my friend

Hello John! I'm starting to design and assemble individual F-18 devices =) If you still have 3D drawings or assembly diagrams for your F18 cockpit, could you share them?

So, have you tried meta Quest 3 mixed reality?

@John Self I'm just starting my build. How did you make the seat?

hahahha I was just looking at mine and decided to do the mounting the way you were talking about doing it :D Nice to see we weren't being crazy with those ideas :D

How much did it cost for this entire setup?

Great Work Mister. 👌 I build the same cockpit in the first version like yours. The only difference is that I already have the complete NexLevel Simpit and I upgraded it with your 3D printed files. From today I also make a upgrade and will go to the OpenHornet 1:1 rebuild of a F-18C cockpit.

In the kichen???

Are you playing vr chat?

The game its Just like that or it have more action

wowwwwwwwwwwww

how much to have you build me one

What to say... mastership, craftsmanship, professionalism, passion and all in full swing. Bravo!

I was just thinking about this but for the F4! I know this likely will never get seen but how possible do you think it is?
