Its the SimFox! If I bring my 1/4 scale Tri Pacer to Edgewater, can we fly it with this? That would be so cool!
that one's good
Check out my homemade cockpit
With a Headtracker it would be more perfect. But it's really really nice done!
That would be 👌🏻
How would that even work?
i think if you could transmit a near 180 degree spherical view, and then when you turn your head just show slightly different parts of the view. that would be cool. no need for a tilting camera of any kind
@@22Tech you would have to have something with good graphic power on it to process all that in realtime. It's possible just going to be complex to configure that. Unless some one has already done it.
@@DesertFernwehthere are ready to use sets, it's a transmitter on your goggles, wich talks to a reciver for that, or flight controller or so. Than you only need two servos for the gimbal on the camera.
And I mean when they can build such a nice simulator chair, this can't be a problem.
Maybe at a fan that is linked to the trottle to simulate the windspeed.
haha I like this, plus a windshield washer nozzle aimed at you for when you hit rain. haha.
You mean add?
Edit: also throttle?
With a castor oil and petrol soaked rag attached to the fan and a bb gun firing bb's at your dome to simulate bug splats.
Some IC engine noise would really help with immersion too.
The market for damaged kit airframes is about to change.
This is not a new idea, turning damaged fuselages into simulators. Used to control R/C, I'm sure someone must have tried it, but that's less common.
I'm glad they're doing it though. It'll be interesting to see how they accomplish "full motion."
That's crazy ! You should definitely put a vibration generator that increases in frequency with the throttle so it sends sounds and vibration through the metal structure making it very realistic !
Check out my homemade cockpit
Build a platform so the cockpit is not on the floor, just about chair hight.
If/when they go full motion it'll be up higher
I'd hang it from an A frame...
@@bubblezovlove7213 whoa. You have a cool idea there.
You hang it from the ceiling, and then you put a big weight at the bottom so it's fairly stable when the controls are level. But then you move the weight around below you by moving the controls.
This not only adds weight to the controls but would also tilt the aircraft around in regards to the controls.
@@TravisFabel That would be sick 🔥👍✌️
"...So I sold it to our dear friend Peter, and I also got his Aerolite 103..."
That wouldn't happen to be Peter Sripol's identical-looking Aerolite 103, would it?
I think it is yes
wow i didn't even catch that. that should make for some fun videos from peter!
Peter actually used to be a part of the fire test crew back in the old days of the channel so most likely yes.
Insanely cool!

Brilliant! You guys are so dedicated, especially Dave. Saw his FT tattoo peeking out under his sleeve. Job security ??? 🤣🤣🤣
That is actually his only tattoo, and I'm going to make sure David sees this comment
The subtitles keep calling it the "Kit Box" I quite like the name.
What you give kids with active imaginations
Microsoft Flight Simulator's next update
Damn. I couldn't be more jealous. What a show!
Great build! I’ve seen a few other FPV “simulator” setups, but none that used an actual airframe.
Question. Has like any company approached you like with an offer to manufacture any of your builds?
What a great build. So much effort, well done.
That looked like sooo much fun!
Dave, you are an awesome addition to the Flite Test family.
The “SPNW” (Single Place No Wing) Sim Chair is incredible!!!
I've watched a TON of your videos, but this may be the coolest thing you guys have done.
Super 👍🤘 i love planes.
16:35 Product Placement on point!!
new way to enjoy an RC Plane, awesome

Absolutely wild project. So cool.
I'm really excited about this! I love any videos that have o do with your FPV chair
This is awesome
FPV cockpit for the win!

Anyway to set it up like a racing simulator, add head tracking? This is already amazing, love how you're channel is pushing the limits and sharing it all.
Fantastic guys, looking great 👍
Great build, can hardly wait to see it morph!
Love from Pakistan
The KitSim!
hi, any chance of you making a giant model of the avro vulcan? I would love to see the huge delta wing flying over the golf course
ahh the arrow with TWIN 2k jets ... and an airsoft gun ... or a paint ball shooter from the weapons bay lol ... and of course dont forget the Maple leaf on the wings ...
Fantastic!!!
That was super cool. The landing wasn’t too bad either. Great job guys.
Wow super cool
Amazing! You guys rock as usual!
Great job guys, good clean fun 👍
I am loving this project!

Awesome Dave! This was an incredible episode.
I've been watching this channel since the vlogging days, and I love how much you guys have grown. I was planning to go to FliteFest last weekend, but sadly I had other plans then. I fully support your channel, and I hope to come visit you guys at Edgewater soon. Currently I am in the middle of my very first scratch build, the Swappable Spitfire. Once I finish it, I plan to come up all the way from Alabama to fly it for the first time with you guys! Enjoying the content, keep inspiring people like me to change the world. Love you guys!
A cool addition could be adding altimeter and gyro sensors into the planes, with matching meters displayed in fpv, since it looks like altitude especially could be a little tricky to guage in fpv!
Awesome guys
You guys ROCK👍👍👍👍👍
Great job guys. I like the name "the FPV Cockpit." Keep up the great creative build.
FpV cockpit obviously!
THIS Should Be A MUST In RC Competitions.. :)
There's a rumor going around that they got the airframe on the cheap from whistling deisel
love you guys
I always wanted to do that with a RC plain .so cool.
Your team has done a kickass job on the cockpit so far, love to see it evolve, just need to finish the full on motion control, curious if you'll include an hd monitor to use with the DJI video . Ill definitely have to transport mine out to the next Flite Fest just to have head to head foamboard carnage!
Check out my homemade cockpit
That looks awesome! Can’t wait till the freedom fox comes back!
Great episode guys!
Josh - I want one of the shirts you're wearing - "I Made This" - Are they available anywhere?
It will be up in our new store very shortly :-)
Wow very nice.
Very cool
Cool Project! I purchased that Kitfox 2 from Peter Sripol and should have it airworthy by the end of the year if I can finally get my registration back from the FAA (They were several months behind due to covid when I submitted all the documents to them)
The build looks like how I like to have fun. Knocked it out of the park again!

The Flite Tester....awesome video and great idea
Awesomeness
Love the flags on the wall! Is there a Space Force flag?
Noah looked like he was enjoying riding in the frame while y'all were bring it to the shop.
flite test is amazing
Very kool project great job guys air2 s army out
That is absolutely insanly awesome You guys are great Love it 🔥👍✌️
"Kit Box", Absolutely!
loved my plane from you guys. I lost it in the corn this week but did get to fly LOVED IT!!!!!!!!! you guys thanks to this CH have got me into flaying. Thanks!!!! already ordered me a another plane cant wait for it to come in :) Dexter Bostic Greenway AR
Wow!
You should implement the head movement to change the view of the camera. So you can look to the left and right (up and down)
I love this. I want to fly in it!
Wow crazy you guys rock. You could do a cockpit like that but for a paramotor and fly an RC paramotor that would be awesome!!

You guys have Amazing videos
dude, i love all your videos, but this one was AWESOME
Awesome
Speakers and vibrations would be great
Dude just blew my freakin mind @6:59 !!
You guys just continue to be so awesome in what you dream up. This Old Man from North Carolina always been following since almost day 1. Love your videos. ✈️😎💝
You need head tracking on the goggles that controls a camera gimbal. That would give you MASSIVE emersion.
universal studios in Florida might have some ideas. this is so awesome!
I hope they are paying you well for all of that product placement Josh!
Definitely a sim-pit (simulator cockpit) or a sim-pod.
Although, to really step it up, you gotta add a pan-tilt mechanism for the camera. It doesn't feel right unless I can look around and see the whole world around me.
Please make a monster series F4 Phantom RC at some point soon!
Awesome! It would be really cool to use airspeed telemetry data to dynamically adjust the resistance of the controls.
I was thinking about this... you'd really need to do a LOT of work to make this happen, but it is totally possible. There may be some hacky options, like having a second set of motors/cables that apply the countering force, but you're really getting into "closed-loop" control mechanisms if you want to achieve that, and that makes everything expensive. It's why most small scale CNC machines use stepper motors and 'dead reckoning', while the big boys use servos with closed-loop control mechanisms (i.e. systems that ask, "I applied X input, did I achieve the desired output? If not, increase input." Humans do this with their brains, but machines do this with a lot of seemingly-ancillary parts. The good news is that all this can live on the ground and shouldn't increase the weight of the plane. Adding wind instruments (i.e. pitot tube) to the model could help with realism, but between GPS, gyros, accs, throttle, altitude, etc, you should be able to dial things in for good realism.
In the decade of the 90s there were three or four Bars around the south San Francisco Bay that featured "Flight Simulators" for the customers. Each location had only four to six fully-enclosed units, so you sat with your buds at the bar or in a booth awaiting your turn, fortifying self with courage from a stein or bottle. The monitors were top notch for the time, graphics certainly as good as any Silicon Graphics or Sun Microsystems monitors I had worked with in the games industry...likely less expensive. You could choose from several battle scenarios, including carrier launches & trap landings.
But for some reason, whoever designed the simulator BOX, placed the monitors down just beyond your toe tips. Maybe they worked out that drunken customers would get their greasy, ketchup-stained fingers on the monitors and mess up the screens.
At home I had a couple of macs with just a mouse and a wacom tablet for personal projects and a few games. But I knew folks who'd bought steering wheels and foot pedals for racing games.
One day I walked into an Army-Navy Surplus store in San Jose, and saw a Navy fighter jet EJECTION SEAT for under $400. I almost bought the thing on the spot.
*_TEMPTATION._* I had to turn around and exit the store. But I knew I could NEVER EVER again make fun of someone else's extravagant hobby spending...
You guy's should do a full 280 degree screen set up with it. Have the door to get in go up or out like a plane door with the screen in it.
Hellooo!!!
Can you please do an A-10 Warthog vs A-10 Warthog dogfight? (The one with the bb machine guns in it?)
That would be SICK!!!!
LOVE U GUYS!!
you guys could take it to the next level with head tracking!!!!

This would be a biiiig project but, would y’all be able to build a scenic Pearl Harbor? If that could be accomplished then it’d be awesome
To make motion control you can hook up the control inputs to a gimbal system. That would give you feedback and turn the airplane at the same time
Maybe guys try adding 360 camera!! that would be great!
A motion master version will be awesome
Gotta make some kind of fpv camera rig that moves when you turn or tilt your head left/right/up/down. Maybe even put control instruments display (airspeed, elevation, direction... ect) in the plane then you can look down and actually use them
Oh my god... Next step is to make a heli cockpit and fly quads like this :D

1min in and already awesome!!!!!!
Hell you guys could trhow a small motor and some wheels and drive that thing to wherever you are using it. Also it would be nuts if you attached a head tracker and used a 360 cam for the plane
What an incredible project! What was wrong with the original airframe to prevent a restoration to flight?
I love ur vids
FPV Cockpit, or FPVCP. The Kitfox Box, Crash Chair, thats all I got for now
If the view of camera could be move by pilot’s head, that will be awesome, you could seen the pilot wants to look around by head.
I see a FPV Laser Battle in the Future...! I'm going with Tragedy Chair...!
Hang it with some winches to lower and raise a little if you're climbing or diving and could make it really fun haha
I think you need to have Peter help you add hydraulics to the FPV chair and connect a second reciever up to those hydraulics using a Arduino uno . That way which ever way you steer your plane you actually feel like you are in the plane. Just a thought.
