Learn basic woodworking and electronics. You can make this with basic know how, the right acrylic panel material and a bunch of Amazon/EBay buttons switches and dials.

Amazing! To top it off, add VR. It took me a little bit to get the feel for where everything is, but it's such a great experience! Outstanding setup!!!!
@@radoslaw715 yes, although controllers aren't ideal (you have to pick them up and put them down, otherwise, how will you use your hotas?) But yes, you can flick the switches in VR with controllers.
@@cuttheloop it is easier because of the annoyance of picking the controller up and putting the controller down, but you know what's easier than a mouse? PointCTRL. It is awesome.
Only thing I do not like with a cockpit like this is that you're stuck with 1 plane pretty much. Keybinds can be switched around but its not the same. However I believe you can get things much quicker done with you're moving your hands instead of a cursor ingame
@@casacasa5397 there are technologies that compensate for the distortion and can combine multiple images into a single big one. Ive seen it done with projectors but if you could make a large enough bubble over the pit it could probably be done. The big hassle would be getting in and out.
What a fantastic setup. So wish I had a setup like that. Although, all that being said, I still would not be able to dog fight Great, Great work, Jealousy maxed out!!!!!
We've tested dogfight with Pimax. For someone already flying in VR, having a cockpit around him only adds to the accessibility to the various controls in the cockpit. With the 1st generation cockpit shown in this very video, the layout of the controls on the flat MIP and on the vertical panels on both sides require certain amount of offset because they don't feel like in the exact same spot as shown in VR, since you can't see the physical controls, it get's a bit counterintuitive and hinders the game play to some extent. We're preparing to make another video with our 3rd generation which has much more realistic geometries and feels much more intuitive.
Give or take without any specific information (lets say for the sake of this question the exact setup without the PC shown on the video) how much would this go for? Exactly the setup shown on video without any further customisation.
Out of interest, and a rough estimate, what is the weight of this simulator, minus the frame, screens, pc etc. I thinking of building one onto a custom built motion platform but need to jave a rough idea of how heavy it is before planning the platform build.
What does the pinky trigger on the bottom of the control stick do? Just seen top gun, and noticed it, I’m not of any pic pilot skill merely wondering! Thanks very cool set up
Do you only ship within the US or overseas too? What is the ground area measures, 8x5 ft ? And last but not least: How to install all the hardware, does it come with a manual for stupid people?
We ship worldwide, most regions are covered. You may send us your shipping address by mail so we can request quotes from shipping companies to your location. Width of the footprint is more like 42", full metal construct makes it slick. Length varies depending on the specs. Manuals are available for all customers. Setup is pretty simple, all the internal wiring is already taken care of, only major power and data cables are unplugged before shipping. Restore them after bolting the modules together, install and set up the software and you're good to fly.
It’s about time someone pointed out, I’m glad you saw that. With a screen as the visual system, there’s no way to keep the scenery centered while using the head movement to pan around the HMD sight. At least TrackIR doesn’t work like that at the moment, even if it did, without a dome or a curved projection screen, the total field of view is limited. This is the inherent problem with conventional display systems. Switching to VR enables the HMD capability, but you won’t be able to see the physical pit directly. The latest (3rd generation) cockpits are built to match the geometries of the virtual in-game cockpit so after proper alignment it’s easy to develop muscle memory even while wearing the headset, but MR/XR would solve the issue for good.
@@propilots3398 Such a system would only benefit users with curved/dome screens, and there are so few of them that I don't think this group would ever give ED the incentive to bother trying. Luckily for us, the hardware was designed with both solutions to the issue in mind, and it's already built to be compatible with these solutions.
@@neoengresssimulations8659 There are VR headsets that have built in cameras so you can switch from VR to AR on the fly. Would be interesting to manage a half VR/ half AR view. Another possibility would be to have data gloves that show your hands in the VR. Then you would have to calibrate the view so the button position correctly match in reality and in VR.
Cool video. But to put on a pilot's suit and gloves, you can really overdo it. I think Flugsi,ulator is also really great and gamble it but wasting so much money on it hurts! Maybe many times should go to the doctor to examine themselves!
@@mirtaet123 i already read the description. I also know they can't name general prices because every cockpit is custom made. I was asking the price for the cockpit shown in this video though.

I see that it’s getting as close as it can be for an F/A-18 cockpit. Think it’ll encourage future Super Hornet drivers?
I'm feeling optimistic about it.

Очень большая работа проделана!👍👍👍
I just thought about a sim where the cockpit glass and mirror is a monitor and displays the game to only the outside. Now that would be epic!
LG has invented some curved, flexible displays. Biggest issue there will be disruption of the view, but if you can figure that out, you're golden.
What do they teach at school these days? The Amount of distortion makes it prohibitive. You know, basic optics
@@casacasa5397 there are technologies that compensate for the distortion and can combine multiple images into a single big one. Ive seen it done with projectors but if you could make a large enough bubble over the pit it could probably be done.

With this prototype? It’s an 8” LCD behind a panel with windows. On our new models these are custom made active segment display components.
