Update August 2024: New Teeth

[@ralfidude]

So jelly right now, this just keeps getting better. For some reason I was most excited about your fans blowing in the cockpint and being controlled by the environmental switches in cockpit, that's ingenious.

[@saulgoodman5533]

new vid when?

[@ralfidude]

@@saulgoodman5533 just released one. 3 in like 2 weeks.

[@Eagle015]

@@saulgoodman5533 he released one 5 days ago where he flew the Apache

[@ComdrStew]

Real A-10 pilot could sit in there and feel at home.

[@vantagetes]

Great build. The fact that you take the time to share how you did everything to people, and for free, is amazing. You sir, are the man.

[@vukotichm]

By far the greatest home simulator of all time 👍

[@pyroscot]

The GOLD STANDARD in attention to detail, ralfidude would LOVE this at home.

[@knowyourjoe8826]

With these constant "realism updates" at some point he will have an actual fully functional flying A-10 "replica." LOL. I admire your dedication and tenacity. Thanks for sharing your fantastic journey.

[@BushidoDevilDog]

“You” “The guy she tells you not to worry about” 🤣😂🤣 Nice touch!

[@_zeranom]

What is the difference between this amazing cockpit and a real one in a warthog? Well,…you can enjoy the beer before you attack a truck 🍺 cheers. Incredible work, dude 👍

[@FORCE74961]

Wow I’ve just started learning or should I say trying to learn the warthog that is amazing what a build gained a sub from me Thanks for sharing I’d love a setup like this as I’m sure many others would great work

[@Upstateaerial]

Dude your work is spot on amazing. Motivating; thank you and congrats on the project.

[@xanthraas8241]

Ridiculously amazing. Thank you for sharing your deep passion with us!

[@PappaBear_yt]

I remember an episode of Bill&John where one of them opens a beer in A-10 cockpit... 😁 Cheers! 👍🏻👏🏻💪🏻🍻🍻🙋🏼‍♂️

[@nunya_123]

Having a beer at 20,000 ft while launching missiles. Living the dream

[@theshawnmccown]

He left his broken-down truck on the road for too long. Went with his gas can, to get some gas, and came back to this.

[@OzDeaDMeaT]

love your work mate.

[@gibilator]

Damn dood how does this keep getting more epic! Those 120mm fan vents might actually be of use for my sim racing rigs.

[@Thomas-1967-AUS]

love this.....the days have gone a long time ago when all you had to do was press 'Start' and play lol

[@Jambock86]

Really good job! Every time I watch one of your videos, I have to go back to my simpit and change something too! 🤣 Awesome to see this project evolving more and more!

[@M4tr00s]

freaking well done as always, and yes please do a vid on the collective I'm looking to build one myself but I'm at a bit of a loss

[@kingsimaviation]

Wow! sim keeps getting super. By far best home sim i have seen yet!

[@JPH11]

Looking forward to seeing and hearing more about the mixed reality!

[@russtuff]

Amazing as always

[@speeddemon2262]

Thanks again. Amazing stuff.

[@dishdoggiegaming7254]

OH Thank YOU, We are Flying WET today some good Beer Lotion for the Motion and 5,4,3,2,1 Pickle Boom. 😁

[@jzerious4523]

So cool

[@Fergie6366]

As always attention to detail is awesome

[@SpidaMez]

you should try to get a real attitude indicator for the cockpit. Then it would look extremely real

[@olivZeGeek]

So wonderful !!!! 🤩

[@dubstepmachine4430]

You should try get the ambient game lighting set up so that your room matches the day/night light in game

[@home-w8y]

next up VPFORCE FFB joystick !!

[@JohnSmith-xq1pz]

God I wish I had a star fighter cockpit half this cool for my retro space combat games

[@enragedstrings4803]

Wow! This looks great!

[@emilattila]

that 1 Frend who some how got infinite money and time to make whatever he decides to

[@f15sim]

Nicely done!

[@BeansBurritos]

POV: you don't have your very own a-10 cockpit at home ☹️

[@Judge_OnYouTube]

Sure, you can't see the teeth; but you know they're there.

[@Noel127]

that room is probably 2 times my annual salary

[@purplepenguin43]

most fighters: "dam things happen fast i need to have my script on point so i dont get task saturated." Warthog: "dam i got time to drink a bear before i need to watch for CCRP. "

[@purplepenguin43]

its part of what i love about the A-10 in DCS, its so relaxing to fly. although my favorite type of mission has to be fast in, multi release. which is why im sad the Mudhen and harrier are down right now cause of the dispute.

[@CrinosAD]

What is the most fun for you... Flying the sim, or building it? I built a SimPit for MechWarrior once, and for me. It ended up being more the building than the gaming. (after a while).

[@rkdendndable]

In my opinion, it would be better to add lighting that adjusts brightness and color depending on the surrounding environment.

[@samuraidriver4x4]

Can you put the arduino code for the panels with displays and servo's like the fuel panel, radio's and ARC-210 on the website? Would be great to be able to reference those.

[@stevechopping3021]

Give me a break I can't hope to build mine to that standard😂 that decal file is great

[@agoogleuser4317]

Can you do a video about the screen/projector set-up? 😊

[@samuraidriver4x4]

He has videos dedicated to building the screen and the projectors.

[@agoogleuser4317]

Oh awesome! I'll have to check those out ​@samuraidriver4x4

[@LuigiClark2258]

I love watching these videos, but I just now had a question that I never thought of before. So when you fire the nose cannon, does it roll the plane to one side? I would think it would have some effect because I know that it about halves forward thrust when you fire it, or does it happen in real life and not DCS

[@flajflaj]

MIXED REALITY! Oh Man, how many times I was thinking to myself if you ever considered this "mixture" in your flying! :D Can't wait to see full video on that. Btw. Are you planing to add some plexy on top to add that feeling of sitting in a closed canopy? Since you are entering MR it doesn't have to be perfectly shaped, this could be even a two flat surcaces on the sides.

[@GrinchWSLG]

The switch tops in the Armament HUD Control Panel file for download aren't the same ones in the video.

[@thewarthogproject]

Fixed!

[@boogiehasfun]

how much would it cost to make something like this? i'd love to make something like this one day.

[@mischi9203]

4:52 whats that feetfinder link?

[@4OfSpades]

next update. an overhead flood light that ties in with the time of day in-game. day time in game? day time in the cockpit. Night time in game. Dark in cockpit. Tell me why you shouldn't

[@Contraband157]

A floodlight would wash out the projection screen view - it would make the out the window view way worse.

[@LoudestHoward]

Are you able to use the A-10s HMD with this setup?

[@salemeister5478]

Dude chill out we literally just did the usb panel mod like a month ago lol. I love what you’re doing, it would be cool if you could get real instruments but there’s way too much involved with that.

[@Shadowmaster4580-ri6nt]

so skibidi

[@fastfed]

Amazing to build these things, but just seems insane to me to build something for ONE single plane, sure you can use most if not all of that for other planes, but it wouldn't make sense. So you're basically just flying the a10? the ENTIRE TIME ?lol plus no VR, which IMO is literally the future

[@BMWS-1000RR]

@7:50 Who's flying the plane? Him: Uhhh...
