I’ll try to get it
Me too
For true immersion I'd like to see how you'd do in a first person only launch
@@yeah_thats_tim It would make first-person much easier as it has SAS controls. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if one of these modules could display apoapsis and periapsis height and time. One of the modules Matt didn't use had a display on it.
@@eekee6034 I totally agree, it'd be a pretty cool idea
Happy to see you enjoying your controller! It was a pleasure building it for you. Thanks again, Matt!
🍔
🍕
Wait you built it????
It looks amazing!
🐐🐐🐐
Thanks for the lunch guys
@@techny3000 Thank you!!
I'd like to see a full blown Mission with this, with a camera for the controller ofc
Nice!
And another cam for the feet. Doubling viewers easily.
@@chrisakaschulbus4903 LOL
I'm gonna need a full cockpit like this to play in first person xD
With real GForces
@@Recyclops Time to bring out the ol'hydraulics from Jebediah Kerman's Junkyard and Spacecraft Parts Co
Which cockpit from the game tho?
@@CoffeeKnifehmm, good question, I think the Mk1 cockpit because it's simple but still cool.
@@1mariomaniac but smoll and the screen are at the left and right so ou got just 2 and in very uncorfirmy place
This, the VR mod, and a rumble chair would make an insanely immersive experience
The vr mod has like no interactivity with buttons. You can't even use the throttle.
Except theres no point of having any of these controllers in vr since you cant see anything. You're literally fumbling blindly on the buttons
@@daniel_of_jersey4775this is one of the major flaws of VR. If you mod controllers then you need the virtual representation to make them worthwhile. Not all games are compatible with those kinds of visual mods either. Unless you get really precise with making your real world mods match the virtual space you will be in. I did that with American Trucking Simulator and it was pretty good!
Needs augmented reality like the 3ds.
@@roadkillraker But more like jizzing in the rain.
Matt’s heeeheeeheeehee laugh is just about enough to convince me to get a plushie
I liked it when he attacked the female . He asserted dominance with his plushie .
980 dollars is a steal in my opinion. For something so intricate and as you mentioned not mass produced and handmade, this is a price much lower than I was expecting!
@@verminlaza8186 yeah tbh the price is much too steep for me. But i hope others enjoy it if they are willing to dish out that kinda cash
@@verminlaza8186 I wouldn't call this 1k for no reason, Matt obviously has a reason for buying one and the fact that this guy can steadily produce them means other people are buying them for a reason.
People pay $500+ for steering wheel/pedal set ups which are mass produced for racing games. This is an amazing deal.
@@RamenPoweredShitFactory Don't forget that Matt is a content creator. He makes money from uploading videos. So the controller either has or will pay for itself, most likely, with just this video. Not that I begrudge Matt for it at all, very much enjoyed the video and it has me again thinking about making one of my own.
@@RamenPoweredShitFactory well you gotta remember matt uses this for work/content for matt its a steal tbh, the orginal comment called it a "steal" in general, and i dont think an average bloke is willing to fork that cash for something novel.
This is the coolest thing I have ever seen. Like, I'm speechless. I think this is every ksp player's dream.
I make my own button boxes and throttle quadrants etc. for flight simulators and I gotta say, "bespoke" is an understatement. Those are beautiful. I could not believe the price you said. Each panel you pulled off was so impressive. GG's all around. Looking forward to some ksp1 FPV challenges.
Almost did’nt notice he edited in the ksp footage instead of recoring his screen, nice touch
I'd love to see a full mission video in your usual style with this, but possibly with added controller-cam! Such a cool setup
I love how joysticks are made for being able to do subtle input and Matt still decides to bop the joystick twice every second instead
that giggle after launch abort so satisfying
also I want one too
I love how Matt is afraid to push the joystick and hold it, like he's using the keyboard keys that are either full on or off. You don't have to wiggle so much with analog controls! :)
I too ordered a controller. Great communication and easy enough to put together. Cant wait to see what he does for KSP2. I noticed he has added a few new interfaces. I love that this is modular and you can swap out with new modules in desired. The new throttle looks pretty nice.
Also...docking with the actual analog sticks is a dream.
I would love to see a full series with this controller filmed similarly to what you've done in this video where we can see everything you're doing on the controller - it would be really interesting just to see it more in action
I am currently building one from scratch, and even if its not very easy to do, it's loads of fun! Very pleasing to see how many mods there are if you want to pull or inject data to the game. Anyway, gotta love this controller, much cleaner than my handmade one... Mine si a big spaggetti mess of cables!
PS: sorry for the synthax errors, english isn't my native language.
Good luck with your build! :)
Congrats Matt I hope you really enjoy using this
Absolutely love it. Thanks for sharing!
This video is one of my favorites in the channel! It really shows how well KSP plays as a game, just seeing it laid out on a controller like that
That controller looks so good, take good care of it.
I remember the post the guy made on Reddit of the first one. I wondered what happened after you commented, but finally it's here!
Lovely bit of kit. Looks magic.
Wow that is very awesome! I expect to hear those satisfying clicks in videos from now on :) This made me realise how my Heavy Machinery controller (Farming sim button box) would be amazing for Kerbal. Thanks for this great vid and god speed to your gf.
I clicked on this knowing it would make me jealous. And now I'm jealous. Looks super fun! Great work Codapop, and Matt, hope you enjoy the heck out of it and show it off more.
I work in a control center for a space agency and this is much cooler compared to what we have 😂
that throtle switch could come in very handy, landing with minimal fuel... i actually have a 6 crew soviet style mun and minmus return craft without a parachute system... cause i forgot it the first time i used it... by the time i found out, i was landing it like ed baldwin on mars with no fuel at all... and you know what? forr 80m/s a second you really just need 4 engines and 6 tanks as crushing medium to survive
This panel CONTROLS THE FLOW OF TIME
I think we might be under-utilizing this.
Very professional looking kit.
I keep meaning to try and make myself a control box for the PC but not limited to one game. I have made up some really bad button boxes as a trial but never got around to doing a proper version.
There are companies out there that will lasercut to order so if you create a DXF/DWG file with your button cutouts they can supply the final panel for you to add your switches and wire them up to a USB HID board. I have used ones from Leo Bodnar in the UK, they do a 32 button controller board for around £30, you just need to solder the wires to your switches. Once plugged in it just becomes another USB controller on the PC.
Woah that's gonna be so useful!
Love the subscriber counter btw
Looks awesome!
Amazing piece of technology. I am jealous. Great video as well. Thank you.
Thats soooo good matt!
As somebody who loves building control panels with all my heart, I truly enjoyed this! :)
I used to work on aircraft. At the time, I was young and arrogant, and took for granted the engineers' style and design choices. Decades later I'm finally able to appreciate, but those people are gone. Getting a control panel to look professional and optimized while fitting into a limited space is really a work of art. If you're good at this, please visit your local airport avionics shop.
Having a picture-in-picture view of staging and other actions would add something extra to your videos. This is neat.
I love that the panel has quick save and quick load...
That's a simple but awesome idea, nice work!
Great hand modelling, Matt!
This is awesome! I would love to get one!
This is so cool!
Too happy to see!!
Absolutely amazing setup, Matt! I'm wondering if you're experiencing any sort of input lag with this kind of a controller setup, specifically on launches that make the game lag as it is.
Shouldn't have any noticeable lag at all and is just as punchy as the keyboard!
It's all super responsive, no lag!
@@Codapop_KSP Wow, that's marvellous to hear. I've had past experiences with simple HOTAS setups that had noticeable input lag often times. I'm thrilled to know your (remarkably advanced) controller system doesn't struggle with input issues.
You deserve so much more and awesome dude
Omg this is so nerdy. I am a little jealous. 😍
A couple years ago I saw a tutorial by Make: on how to build a mission control desk. Seeing this years later gives me so much nostalgia!
Good thing your happy Matt!
Woah, that is so cool!
that looks so cool!!!!
Congrats Matt hope you enjoy it. I can’t decide if I want it or not looks cool but I don’t think I’m good enough at both games for it yet
Your passion and videos is enticing and pushing me to buy this game soon and start learning..
this is INCREDIBLE
keep making these amazing videos
wow it really is amazing!
Controller cam for a full mission vid would be a cool idea
Dude thats badass. Kudos for constructor
Holy crap that is so cool!
This is awesome!
That actually looks so sick!! ive never even seen this before
oh my god i love this so much
Really happy for you👍
Dude, that's awesome!
Love this
That thing looks fun as hell.
Wow this is awesome 😀
Hey Matt ! Your setup is soooo cool. You should do a camera showing your hands and your control panel while doing KSP videos. It would be very nice !
This is so cool! 😃
so wholesome 🤣. I loved the Plushie ad. Your laugh is amazing Matt.
Thats really cool.
That is freaking cool
Ha! Thing of beauty, joy for ever. I love the modularity of the design, and it looks very elegant too. My ultimate KSP controller would be either some Apollo era mission control console, or a command module panel re-creation, with DSKY and all other stuff. CuriousMarc's team recently re-created that stuff using PCB as material.
Okay that is the coolest thing i have ever seen
Haven’t watched in awhile! Definitely caught my eye with this one
amazing! gz!
just.. wow
even if u dont use this for every play session its just AWESOME to have
that is the coolest thing i’ve ever seen
Im impressed i must say. This is a really cool set up and tempting to buy lets see maybe for ksp2. The price is deffinitly affordable. I was expecting well over a thousand for such a controller. I would have done a joystuck for the camera though. It just makes more sence to control a slow smooth and precise camera swing.
This is awesome
omg ! i'm definitely saving up for these it is amazing !!
Cant wait to see you stream with this.
this is awesome! i may pick up my own when i finish my PC
So cool! Zoomed controller cam overlaid on a mission vid would be sweet
woah that looks so cool :D
thats so sick!
this is an incredible controller, great job matt, and great job codapop. And it really is not very expensive compared to what i myself expected.
This is awesome.
I too spent a lot of money on something similar but its a virpil setup for star citizen and the clicky switches and buttons do make the game so much more fun
This is incredible!
I seriously need one if these
oh my God, this is amazing.
Oh man that controller is so sick, I'm green with envy
That is sick
looks fun
FINNLAYY PERFECTION!
thats super cool
Omg bro that’s awesomeeeee 👏🏼 😎
I need this!
That's so cool, man.
Nice work sir!
So cooool I wish it was sold with the game
An interesting video to me would be any simple mission together with a top view of the controller as you use it.
