Imagine having that cockpit, but only having those 3 26 inch screens.

[@motionbasti]

And then put away another 20 feet.

[@alext5980]

Imagine it was much less than 20 feet away, and in a workshop environment instead of an in-home setup. Oh wait, you don't need to ;)

[@motionbasti]

@@alext5980 ähm sry....19feet

Its testing the cockpit systems in our workshop before delivery to the customer. As described under the video. We have dome screen in our showroom.

[@motionbasti]

would be smarter, to show with the best setup.

[@ShuRugal]

it's astonishing that Eagle Dynamics has created such a widely used flight sim that there's actually a viable industry of DCS-specific bespoke peripherals...

[@keijigamings1127]

I'd still use that full rig with vr

[@rcoplien]

Awesome pit but need a nice big curved projector screen to top it off.

I agree need a bigger screen period.

[@jayjay53313]

Need to get rif off the cockpit on montor screen too. DCS needs to create option to remove inflight cockpit view for those having own artificial cockpit. Substitute with full frontal wide screen view instead.

[@NorthernGrim]

@@jayjay53313 the guy with the A10 cockpit has that, think it's a mod

Looks amazing, add an icarus parabolic projection system and you are free to feel like a real pilot. Excellent work.

[@Maax1200]

Even more so if you use VR headset. But hey, why make it the easy way, right?

[@martinethson]

@@Maax1200 I got a VR system but i believe that a pit with a 270 degree screen and a tripple projector is the thing to use if you are dead serious and seriously rich. But indeed VR is another level of boner. Cheers man

bro got the setup

[@grennymaster]

thats outstanding work! it would be so great to have Screens that can fit on the Canopy itself, the emerson would be so fucking great

Very cool

[@maricidevamega939]

I think you forgot to pull the EJECTION HANDLE and test if the seat is working or not before your delivery.

[@michaelbarber891]

If that were a function my brother would highjack my cockpit and pull it

[@michaelbarber891]

But I'm sure this is not a function because I'm sure nobody wants a fat piece of plastic flying in their room.

[@NeonsStyleHD]

I get this, but VR makes these almost redundant. The best of all works, is this + VR + 1 to 1 match between home cockpit and sim cockpit so when your hand touches a control in game it matches exactly IRL.

[@caiuspostumiusturrinus1024]

Should add a motorized system to it... so it can simulate lift,spin,dive, and turn on its axis.

[@mikkihintikka7273]

if it would rotare freely on front to back axiz it would prevent motion sickness

[@nelsonc6173]

Holy shit! That is a nice accessory to add to a simulator! Nice!!!!!!

[@keustattoo]

It's a dream to play with that ! Congratulation for your work, I think it's clearly unafordable for me, so I will try to make one similar with the plans you kindly give :)

[@Shannonbarnesdr1]

dude this is the coolest, how much do these cost to have built and shipped within the states ?

[@WhereNerdyisCool]

That's a pretty setup. Yet a VR headset config looks amazing too....and a helluva lot cheaper! :)

Tham! Even FCS status menu is model accurately. 👌

[@sonniedae6398]

It's a sim called DCS, the displays are just regular monitors that have the in game displays overlayed to them

[@tripletdaddy7672]

Needs to save up for big screen TVs or projectors and white sheets to surround the cockpit. Big speakers subwoofers!! . I'm sure the regular screens will have to do for awhile as it might of coast alot to build all that

what's with the badass cockpit but the ghetto crooked tiny monitors?

[@flyguy1237]

What is the recommended way of using this type of setup? VR Headset and VR gloves? Projectors? One really big TV screen?

[@AndrewCZ47]

Curved screen and projectors. Or a dome like these guys use for their commercial setup.

[@solosportbikerider5734]

It has a radio what king of music is that?

That needs a big 360 screen above it.

In the eighties the Santa Monica pier had just what you need: a huge curved panoramic screen with very hairy softwares too-if you like to get heart attack.

[@historybyholliday1166]

Can you do carrier takeoffs in the simulator cause in DCS you have to open a menu and press a button to use the catapult on the air craft carrier

What would be killer is the canopy all the glass is a tv screen that would be next level

This would be the ultimate setup with a VR headset in conjunction with Manus VR glove. Now if it's at all possible to hook it up to a motion emulator rig.

[@michaelbarber891]

Here is a question, when we buy the FA-18C/E model does it come how it's displayed on this video or do we buy the avionics and canopy our selves?

[@zaloarg]

That cockpit will be great with VR

[@Maax1200]

Well, with VR headset on, that cockpit would be a complete waste of time and money, wouldnt you say?

[@zaloarg]

@@Maax1200 absolutely 100% not. It is the best of both worlds. You can be in VR and reach with your hands all the buttons and knobs as if you were in the cockpit. Perhaps the lcd screens you can do without. But as it is now, you can use it both ways, with 3 LED TVs, with a projector or with VR

[@Maax1200]

@@zaloarg Sounds good on paper but if you have ever tried it you would know that anything that isnt at your fingertips (Hotas) is a pita to find (keyboard) once your have VR headset on. Takes about 2 seconds for your brain to forget what is center on for example your keyboard. You will fundle all over the place, trust me. Besides, why sit in a crazy expensive cockpit that you cant even see? Anyways, its all cool and all that but theese kind of cockpit builds is kind of yesterdays news with VR beeing the go to thing nowdays imo and VR will keep evolving. TripelHeadToGo not so mutch.

[@zaloarg]

@@Maax1200 The future is the HOLOLENS. In the future you will have some kind of HOLOLENS that projects VR from the border of the cockpit all around, when you look down you will see the real cockpit. You can program something like that today with hololens, the problem is that hololens have some transparency in the VR that they project.
