[@earthsciteach]

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!

[@xXrandomryzeXx]

that one's good

[@jimmytheriot8978]

Check out my homemade cockpit

[@rexmcstiller4675]

Maybe at a fan that is linked to the trottle to simulate the windspeed.

[@datalorian]

haha I like this, plus a windshield washer nozzle aimed at you for when you hit rain. haha.

[@hekmatyar4476]

You mean add? Edit: also throttle?

[@paulhope3401]

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.

[@Jakob-hj8es]

With a Headtracker it would be more perfect. But it's really really nice done!

[@kevinsteele2773]

That would be 👌🏻

[@DesertFernweh]

How would that even work?

[@22Tech]

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

[@DesertFernweh]

@@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.

[@Jakob-hj8es]

@@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.

[@alisioardiona727]

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 !

[@jimmytheriot8978]

Check out my homemade cockpit

[@thomasohanlon1060]

Build a platform so the cockpit is not on the floor, just about chair hight.

[@thomascalton3067]

If/when they go full motion it'll be up higher

[@bubblezovlove7213]

I'd hang it from an A frame...

[@TravisFabel]

@@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.

[@EJ-74]

@@TravisFabel That would be sick 🔥👍✌️

[@PilotInstitute]

Insanely cool!

I've watched a TON of your videos, but this may be the coolest thing you guys have done.

[@TastierBackInThe80s]

The market for damaged kit airframes is about to change.

[@tananam9782]

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."

[@DavidBauer38]

Dave, you are an awesome addition to the Flite Test family. The “SPNW” (Single Place No Wing) Sim Chair is incredible!!!

[@walk4718]

Brilliant! You guys are so dedicated, especially Dave. Saw his FT tattoo peeking out under his sleeve. Job security ??? 🤣🤣🤣

[@blakeellington8887]

That is actually his only tattoo, and I'm going to make sure David sees this comment

[@An_Anubis_76]

Question. Has like any company approached you like with an offer to manufacture any of your builds?

[@Wikkid2daCOR]

The subtitles keep calling it the "Kit Box" I quite like the name.

[@stephen_cs]

What you give kids with active imaginations

"...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?

[@finnleithomczyk5292]

I think it is yes

[@liamburkhart6641]

wow i didn't even catch that. that should make for some fun videos from peter!

[@ghostrunner2138]

Peter actually used to be a part of the fire test crew back in the old days of the channel so most likely yes.

[@NicholasRehm]

Microsoft Flight Simulator's next update

[@krisraps]

THIS Should Be A MUST In RC Competitions.. :)

[@JC-ru3mo]

That was super cool. The landing wasn’t too bad either. Great job guys.

[@Caroline_Tyler]

The KitSim!

[@Studzilla-is-here]

That looked like sooo much fun!

[@flyingscotsman9657]

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

[@0623kaboom]

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 ...

[@GBLynden]

I hope they are paying you well for all of that product placement Josh!

[@kumuaquarium9953]

Super 👍🤘 i love planes.

[@AddictedRC]

"Kit Box", Absolutely!

[@Olkv3D]

Dude just blew my freakin mind @6:59 !!

[@funhok8809]

Love from Pakistan

[@SpartanChief17C]

Please make a monster series F4 Phantom RC at some point soon!

[@2daysany]

universal studios in Florida might have some ideas. this is so awesome!

[@commandereye-can2919]

This is awesome

[@franklauter7466]

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)

[@workingtitle1791]

There's a rumor going around that they got the airframe on the cheap from whistling deisel

[@owlsrc5357]

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!!

[@VirKap99]

flite test is amazing

[@nathanboon9582]

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.

[@freshfruit8960]

Maybe guys try adding 360 camera!! that would be great!

[@obeymelissa584]

real feel fpv......closest thing to the real thing.....that be the motto

[@goblinpiper]

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!

[@burkharts1]

Josh - I want one of the shirts you're wearing - "I Made This" - Are they available anywhere?

[@FliteTest]

It will be up in our new store very shortly :-)

[@yaya123abc4]

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!!

[@matthangan7944]

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

[@armandolopez580]

Great job guys. I like the name "the FPV Cockpit." Keep up the great creative build.

[@Airtruksrus]

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!

[@jimmytheriot8978]

Check out my homemade cockpit

[@systomattic8469]

I'm really excited about this! I love any videos that have o do with your FPV chair

[@larrysouthern5098]

A marriage made in heaven...home made cockpit..VR glasses..RC airplane.. way to GO!!!

[@admiralroyeracing4768]

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

[@rmdcade1717]

Absolutely wild project. So cool.

[@matthewmackay4185]

FPV Cockpit, or FPVCP. The Kitfox Box, Crash Chair, thats all I got for now

[@stephencantbewrong8250]

Fantastic!!!

[@toddabbott781]

You need head tracking on the goggles that controls a camera gimbal. That would give you MASSIVE emersion.

[@robertvanderweide7669]

You guys ROCK👍👍👍👍👍

[@KollerFpv]

Wow nice cockpit And i thought we made it overkill😂 Keep making stuff like this

[@LCAviator26]

That looks awesome! Can’t wait till the freedom fox comes back!

[@llPRIMEll]

Oh my god... Next step is to make a heli cockpit and fly quads like this :D

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)

[@JohnHill-jm7tm]

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. ✈️😎💝

[@garyslentzii2796]

Great job guys, good clean fun 👍

[@owenbarkhouse6135]

You guys should do a video where you build an airplane and then drop a action figure out of the back with a parachute

The only thing you miss is the propwind, so put some fans in front blowing towards the pilot and speed them up when you go faster.

Now I want to test it with VR games!

[@robertwren2289]

And he lives to fly another day!

[@dutchloveRC]

love you guys

[@derekpirie9188]

"Kit Box" all the way.

[@anim8torfiddler871]

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...

[@ledwin8770]

Head tracker 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@surfhealthy4272]

Lowe's must be the sponser. :) If not, big plug for Lowe's

[@ClassyTurtleProductions]

next step is to make it a full motion cockpit! This is so cool as is tho, I would love to have one.

[@MBMC_Gaming]

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!

[@jamestunedflat8942]

You should put 2 more cameras in it and set up 3 monitors so you get full immersion. Best flight simulator ever!!!!

You should try and making a rotating camera in the plane’s cockpit and make it so when you look side to side in the FPV goggles it makes the camera move in the plane

[@BABALOOEY46]

Ohhh that’s awesome.. maybe gimbal the camera so when you look around it turns the camera?

[@rayduke7433]

Very cool

[@BharathwajK]

All are really excellent projects ya can you design a same of A-130 gunship with BB-guns with various calibre

[@VacuousCat]

Put a fan in front and feel the wind ;D

[@fredericrike5974]

Congratulations on bringing David on board- day one and he is already pushing FT to "ever better". It's just a suspicion, but is David, by chance, a veteran? Huge presence and his focus as he took on the FPV project was awesome- a whole lot of "adapt and overcome" it looked to me! Subbed long ago- David is just more "cream for my coffee", and I mean that in the best way! At 5'9" and a buck sixty, it's not nice to aggravate nice, well spoken and mannered folks like David, no siree! Onward, and as your are Flite Test- Upward! PS; If that was David's "first flight" ya'll have to get him up in the "real deal"- his comments and rapid situational awareness should make a really good pilot! FR

[@elliotmullet]

FPV Cockpit!

[@pfg72]

I gotta get me one of those!!!!!!

[@jmrcars]

Sea fury vs mig 15 in giant scale would be an awesome fight!

[@welshpete12]

You lucky so and so ! 😉

[@AslamGreyFox]

Surely it's a Mockpit 😁 😉

[@timmckinsey19]

When you guys get this thing done you should put a Rumble pack behind the seats to give you a feel of crashing LOL

[@infidelgaming1670]

Hang it with some winches to lower and raise a little if you're climbing or diving and could make it really fun haha

[@GeoffreyMohr]

You should try to reduce the rates down to real aircraft rates. (Maybe use a quad flight controller)Might just add a bit more realism. Great work.

[@jamesordwayultralightpilot]

Once you fit a screen onto the fuse you won't need those skewers...I was all in until the skewers...a nice screen would complete the build and need I say, 3 wrap around screens with 3 fvp air units mounted under the wings for the left and right views from the cockpit. You'll need 3 DJI recievers to run to the respective screens but think of the immersion

Surely they can work out a way to use an insta 360 and relay the vr headsets position to move the virtual view on the 360? Or send the whole video back to ground, and do the processing there. Bandwidth permitting.

[@TaldrenDR]

Use the data from the gyros on the plane itself to pitch/yaw/roll the cockpit. That will help give him feedback on how to fight the wind. :p

[@SJohnM81]

Needs a head tracker and then it'll be boss!!
