Incredible how you’ve integrated everything. I’m inspired. I currently have a Virpil HOSAS and a panel, I love the quality of their builds. But your setup is far beyond what I even imagined was possible!
You are never stupid for spending money on what YOU enjoy, the amount is insignificant. Everyone is spending fun money on something, and this something is up to each individual...thx for the vid.
That is a pretty awesome setup. You certainly are having fun with it, you put a lot of passion into it. Love the little details and the ejection handle.
Amazing quality with the RODE mic! Also your control panel looks really good and immersive. Was thinking of using the same type of layout however lack of space I will have to split up control panel making it half of the size as I originally planned. It’s always nice to see your detailed videos like this give me more of an idea how to improve my designs and change accordingly. P.S it’s just as warm and humid here in Sweden!
yes Im smashing the keyboard lol but not to dish what you have made / built but to say you do what ever you can to make yourself happy. people that dont understand either gaming or Star Citizen will never get it, the why we do it , or even some people they say " I dont get it you play games " " you fly a space ship! " i just say you do what makes you happy I do what makes me happy.
@@UndeadParrot Sorry, last question: any advice on a trustworthy brand? I have seen so many different ones within a large price area. Don’t know what to choose. Thanks again 🙏
@@lordbarklee No problem, happy to help. I’m using Macally TRIHUB9s myself, but mostly because they were available from a local computer store that I trust to sell safe stuff. I’d expect that any big name brand would be a good choice.
excellent man im slowly working on my own cockpit. all i have is sticks, a tartarus v2 and a frame i built but next month im getting a vkb button box and a tablet for gameglass.
Sounds good, but have you considered building your own button box? It is not all that difficult and can be any layout and size you want with POTs, switches and encoders. Like undead parrot I like the Leo Bodnar boards but I use also Arduino and the HID interface cards. I started out with the interface cards (12 button arcade controller board) but then found out about the others. First project was a 48 button box that fitted around my x52 throttle then the rest built up from there. Version 2 is done and now thinking about others. I don't find Arduino easy but there are plenty scripts out there to modify. Let the inner nerd free and enjoy your build 👍👍.
@@aeoteroa818 Didn't think you had switches yet. The arcade and Leo Bodnar boards are plug and play. Scripts are only needed when using the Arduino. This is a good video about building a button box. th-cam.com/video/wkY1NsbWj5I/w-d-xo.html
Very impressive! Now I really can't wait to see your second build! Maybe you could even offer your first build for sale on Ebay; unless ofcourse you salvaged it for all the switches and such. 🙂 EDIT: Regarding the heat you might want to consider a mobile AC unit. I have my computer upstairs and it can get quite hot during summer so I bought a mobile AC unit for a few hundred bucks and it's powerful enough to cool the room down by several degrees while I hardly even hear it with my headset on. So that might be a solid investment. Or you could go with a split-unit that's much more effective and makes even less sound as the main AC unit is mounted on the ouside of your house with the blower being the only thing inside.
@@UndeadParrot True. For those types of large items you'd need a special courier or container most likely. Then again, that would be for the buyer to sort out right? If they have the money to buy this sim-pit they should have the money for shipping. 😉
Thanks! I do agree: a roof would make it even nicer, and I could add button panels there too. But my long term goal is to build a curver wide screen around the setup, so I might not be able to fit the projectors in.
I can see the day coming when Chris Roberts himself will discover your unbelievable work here, and hire you as CHIEF COCKPIT BUILDING OFFICER for the Cloud Imperium 🖖🍻👍 PS: Don't forget to integrate an A/C device in your room ;)
absolutely incredible. I have two Control Panels and i wanted inspiration for what toggle/button/dial to assign controls to and this gave me a great idea now. But from you video im fascinated about your alternate flightstick controls for landing mode, could you please share your settings? i'd love to adopt it
Thanks! For now, I'm using two separate tools for this: 1) Virpil's software to change the lights. A bit complicated to explain, probably should make a video of it. 2) Joystick Gremlin to change the actual controls. I made separte mode (with my normal mode the parent) for landing, with less responsive joystick curves. Then just mapped the button to enter the mode, and flipping it to other direction changes the mode to general. There apparently is some JG plugin to control Virpil colors. Haven't had time to check it out yet, though I probably should.
Great settings! I would like to ask if you have same problem as me because I have just bought 3 screens 32 inch 2k (7680x1440) and in SC the immersion is awesome but a lot of things are huge like the items in inventory, the icons in quantum etc... Do you have the same ?
Yes, same issues here. SC is really badly optimized for wider resolutions. I'd expect CIG getting into it, but at least according to comments last year, they don't see that many people using really wide setups so it's not a priority for them.
This version was build mostly for Star Citizen. Lately, with my newer modular setup I'm also getting into DCS. Mostly I've been Star Citizen though. I don't play it for what it may become, but what it is now. Even if it wouldn't ever release, there's still years of playing it ahead. Also I just really like building this stuff.
nice set up ! altho i coudnt really make out what you where saying..... maybe subtitle next time or try to slow down a lil .... other then that pretyy damn kool man thinking of doing something like that my self
Thanks. Yeah, I guess the language is a bit of an issue since I'm not a native English speaker. Subtitles would be nice but I simply don't have time for any extra work. Just need to keep doing this and improving. :)
This was available here, perfect fit and a good deal. But a good thing with these projects is that they're never truly ready so something like that can be a future upgrade.
Thanks, glad to hear that! Not sure what you mean. Could you give be the time I said it so I could check it out? My English naturally isn’t perfect so I understand some confusion might arise.
Thanks for the video. I'm always very interested in your home cockpit videos. You inspired me to design a series of instrument panels for my own home cockpit. It's shared so everybody with a 3d printer and a soldering iron can do it too. With the VPC_LEDs py plugin, the LED can be controlled by Joystick Gremlin. With Macros, you have much more control over the colors.
Yeah, there’s at leas Asus bezel free kit. It’s for smaller displays and adding it to 32” would be a bit of an hassle. Haven’t bothered yet, but perhaps some day.
Hey. I haven’t actually calculated total costs. Naturally gaming PC + controllers would be easy to figure out. The cockpit frame was few hundred euros from cheap lumber, had the paint etc from old projects. I’m currently building better one from plywood, expecting it cost somewhere aroung 500-600€.
Enjoy your videos mate! I have managed to set up my throttle and VTOL on the control panel throttle if you’d like to know how…? Also can you send me links on how to use the software? Vjoy, gremlin etc.
Thanks! And I’m always interested in hearing how other people had set their controllers up. There’s always something to learn. I added the links to description after time stamps.
@@UndeadParrot sorry for the delay, I’ve recently added joystick gremlin etc and I have been re-arranging my configurations. On the Virpil software I’ve got my VTOL as button 40 with toggle on, button 41 as toggle off and landing gear as a switch on button 42. I have the buttons mapped out the same on joystick gremlin. I have used the shift setup on Virpil to use a the lights for landing gear up/down and VTOL too. I’ve got photos to help but I can’t seem to attach them on here. Let me know how you get on 👍🏼
@@Tony_M_ Sounds good! I’m not developing my current setup any further since I’m building a new cockpit. After it’s ready, it’s again a good time to start coming up with new ideas.
Thanks! I did't count the hours, but I think I built it inside a month or so, naturally working when I had time. If you're interested, here's some photos from the build: www.undeadparrot.com/project-details/frame/

Absolutely.
It looks so cool to have all ship functionality in controllers around you and not having to use a keyboard for them!
I'm getting out of breath just listening to you. Relax brother, take a deep breath, no need to rush words.
I know. Some people just tend to do that when speaking non-native language.
@@UndeadParrot you did awesome!
Listening to him makes my throat hurt but his setup is too good to leave. 10/10 awesome
Doing my best with foreing language. ;)
@UndeadParrot gaming I know, doing well tho👍
That is a pretty awesome setup. You certainly are having fun with it, you put a lot of passion into it. Love the little details and the ejection handle.
Thanks! It's fun ton play with, certainly, and I also really enjoyed building it.
Great set up. thanks for sharing as it gives me inspiration.
I just hope when Star Citizen is finally finished she will be worthy of your amazing set-up.
I already enjoy it and it keeps getting better after every update.

The other side is that when you are at the point in your life when you can build and buy stuff like this, you barely have any time to play with it. :D
Sick set up . Get a roof on there makes you feel more inclosed
Thanks! I do agree: a roof would make it even nicer, and I could add button panels there too. But my long term goal is to build a curver wide screen around the setup, so I might not be able to fit the projectors in.

Thanks! :D Yeah, I really need good a/c there, at least after winter.
You can use Mobiglass for a touch screen in the center.
Unfortunately not, it's not a touch screen. For SC, the GameGlass is mostly for show. For DCS and FS2020, it's useful as a dashboard.
