Very nice. I have a video on my channel, sitting in the F16A cockpit trainer at the Air Force Museum in Dayton, OH. I'm getting ready to build a F-18 cockpit starting tomorrow.
Hi! This looks great! I am in the process of building an ICP currently. I was wondering what you used for your 4 way directional switch? I cannot seem to find a decent solution for that switch! Thanks!
@@theVRpilot Not the entire ICP is mil-spec; only the switches. The 4 way DCS switch I ordered at Mouser (contact via mouser.com and request a quote for part number 999-T4-CN211N and specifically ask for the square bat and include a picture to make sure they select the correct one)
It all depends on how good you are to manufacture pieces of your own vs purchasing premade stuff, and how realistic you want it (e.g. correct locking type switches & knob types vs from the shelfs DIY store switches). It can vary from 2K to over 25K...
@@stefellbt Thanks For this, 2k is a nice price, but it requires 3d printers and stuff. Plan to do something once I can get a pc that can Handle DCS , But my options are limited as I also want eye tracking so I can look back and Stuff, Anyways Thanks again For this.

This is awesome man! May I ask which resources you use to build up these models? I really want to start building one. Thanks in advance man, this look so cool!

No, because each time you spawn into VR 3D your head will be a little bit offset to the previous time and to the actual cockpit. It will not be properly aligned in 99,99% of the time.

@@humberto367 Yes, it's a transparant acrylic front plate painted black in the front and laser engraved with the labels. The pcb behind it has green leds, so when activated, the leds shine through the lasered parts of the front panel.
The bezel with OSB's? Those are standard Thrustmaster MFD's. The displays behind them are 2x 10.4" LCD's to use for RWR & MFD left, and SADI, FFI & MFD right.
@@YgorMontenegro No it's not a problem. In this video I hadn't activated my trackIR, but I have a headmotion tracker built into my HGU-55/P helmet.
