"That beeping is actually my washing machine" Ah yes, just like the real thing. Wonderful work, but the fresh linen really ties the whole set up together.
Imagine if he joined the air force and was like I already know how to fly an A10. And the instructors are like how and he pulls out his phone and shows them his setup
The A-10 Is so boring because all of y'all have the attention span and memory of a fish. Maybe if you stopped doing needless air to air combat and supported the troops on the ground, war would be a whole lot easier.
And here I felt like a little pilot playing Elite with my Occulus and doing that cute start checklist for immersion, but you sim enthusiasts are clearly on another plane of existence. Awesome setup!
I do this same goddamn thing playing VTOL VR. I flick all the switches and make up military-sounding jargon as I do it, just because it feels cool and if games aren't meant for being fun and feeling cool then I don't game =D
@@a.sandev I'm asking if there is a Virtual Reality helmet made specifically for this game? I heard real pilots complain that they can't see with their own eyes compared to just looking with a screen. Does this help understand?
Holy Jesus dude....this is incredible and I spent 20 years in the Corps as an aircraft maintenance officer. No experience in an A10 but seen plenty of cockpits.
Wonderful piece of work, truly inspiring ... I am guessing but, commercial pilots would *kill* to have a high fidelity simulator, like this, to practice on!
1:49 Coincidence also in my end. I had put laundry in earlier and i forgot to check if the washing machine was done. Your washing machine's beep is exactly the same as mine. I'm guessing yours is a Bosch too. So, when I heard it in your video I paused it and went to pick my clothes up and hang them to dry. Thank you for the unintentional reminder. Now, with the job done, I can finally enjoy your video! lol
There were a couple times that I forgot you were in a sim and not in a real aircraft. This is really well done. My dad was an A-10 engine mechanic for years in the air force. I'm going to show him this video.
I'm getting old and don't remember the last time I got goose bumps. I got goose bumps watching your video. Nothing short of phenomenal. I have the same laser cutter you do and found this video through your panel making video.
What an awesome setup! All you need is a 3 DOF motion platform to shake things up a bit, of course a 6 DOF would be nice but impractical due to the size you'd need to support your cockpit. But man, you have set THE standard for the A-10 flying enthusiast!! Again, nicely done and keep up the great job.
Great setup! This gave me and idea, instead of the 2 screen proyectors, it would be great if you could use a vr headset with a camera on it. Let me explain what i thought. You need a green chroma screen around the real cockpit, the cockpit would still be the same as this one, with all the functional keys and that. The VR set would show you the camera output, but replacing the green chroma with the ingame view, but that way you would still be able to see the real cockpit and your hands! I'm not saying that it is possible, and for sure it would be very hard to implement that into the game, but it would be a great idea doesn't it?
Mate, your A10 'pit is fantastic! My recently departed grandfather was an aeronautical engineer who worked on the A10C, and I only wish he could see the time and skill (not to mention $$) put into your recreation. Kudos sir!
I've been following the evolution of these home simulators for a long time, going back to the era where you needed multiple CRTs and PCs. What is possible today is downright awe inspiring. This simulator is jaw dropping in its polish, relative simplicity in terms of user experience, and ability to modify and improve. Beautifully done!
there should an option for dcs 'disable interior rendering' so that full scale cockpit builders would still see the cockpit windows, but not the interior, as without the plane being rendered, you can't look at the rear view mirrors mounted on the window sills
I suppose he could build a replica of the cockpit cage and put monitors where the mirrors are and set up autohotkeys scripts or something to display the mirrors on those monitors.
Yup! That is the coolest I have seen. Did not know that was even possible.. However, watching you rock your head back and forth back and forth wasn't much fun. Couldn't see what your hands were doing. I could only understand about half of what you said but loved every minute of it. Thanks for letting us watch!
I am super impressed. This vid just came up as recommended for me - my interests include aviation and computers. To a novice like me to home simulators this is a work of art.
@ "Console Peasents" I guess spending 300 bucks on a PS4 makes you a peasent because you didn't wanna cough up 500-700 or more for a decent gaming computer that you'll constantly have to update and throw money into for upgraded graphic cards and processors over time as games become more demanding. Please, get the fuck out of the PC Gaming community if you're gonna be a toxic douche bag that doesn't respect all gaming platforms. Because we genuinely don't want you.
Wow, a 5 year project! Now that's dedication, quite a bit of money, and loads of time invested, very well done sir! Your pics on the DCS site are amazing as well.
@@nightraven836 Erm, or just DCS, it'd be more accuraet that way. Having a rig with all the controls in the right place, connected to the in-game aircraft. I can just imagine how awesome it'd feel taking off in VR feeling like you're actually in a jet. Maybe even gettting hand-tracking gloves so in-game your arms move as well...the immershun! =D
This is so bad-ass, there's no proper adjective to properly describe it! You sir, are GENIUS! You need to produce these... whether as a kit or a custom-built system (hmmm... put in small trailer/caravan rather than a room for mobility!). I was fortunate to get a few hours in the USAF F-15 flight simulator years back... AND YOURS IS BETTER! The wrap-around screen and simulated cockpit exceed the million dollar gov't version! Seriously bro, you need to put these on the market; whether as a custom-built item or a kit. Fan-freakin-tastic!
I'm not sure if anyone has commented this but the reason that you're not getting DCS fullscreen when it first fires up is most likely the butt kicker sound program, when you minimize it you take 'focus' away from DCS starting and it doesn't start fullscreen. If you just leave the sound program alone (as long as it's not set to stay on top) DCS should pop up over it and full screen.
I've been in one true simulator and that was a Stinger simulator. I doubt there's any civi game or sim software and really a big ol plastic Wii Stinger wouldn't be interesting OR fun. I'm realizing just how complicated that sim had to be. I guess it would involve VR goggles now but at the time, 1988 maybe 89, it was a true sim in a dome room. I was 19 or 20 and Stinger wasn't my MOS anyway. They knew, however, we would be in the same area as the dedicated Stinger crews and I guess they wanted us to be able to use the thing if all the Stinger guys were in the latrine when a HIND or a MIG popped into our AO. It truly was a weapon for insurgents, as anyone could use it if they could get it onto their shoulder. This Warthog sim you've built is amazing. It combines so many things I'm interested in, not the least of which is an almost religious reverence that came to me during Desert Storm. It felt like the A10s were a guardian angel and those of us on the ground were a little safer when they were above us. I'm fully aware how corny that sounds, but I'd bet 'security' is an ultra rare feeling on any battlefield.
How you don't have more subscribers s beyond me. Your cockpit setup is amazing. I wish I could build some instruments like yours. Keep the high quality vids up you'll have a LOT of subs in no time
@Youric Hunt I have some limited insight in the costs for simulators due to my job and it is way, way more. Let's say the sim for a basic training aircraft costs around 8 million. Though that also includes professional support etc. for some time. These things get crazy expensive, but then again, it uses all the real switches and panels and the flight models are more advanced and it also includes a terminal for an instructor etc.
Wow, I am flashed. Even in a top notch simulator you can do a Jingles landing. Well done, and also well done video. Nice to see some info behind the scenes, and what it takes to get such impressive gear running.
Inspirational build, and very clean, professional layout... The improvements in VR made me stop building my own pit and settle for a reclined seat with a flexible HOTAS-setup. Everyone has his own preference, but I like to fly multiple a/c-types using VR. Changing the seat recline and position of stick and throttle is enough for me when using VR (where I can not see any other hardware cockpit instruments/controls). Could you tell me what length extender (and spring) you have chosen for your Warthog stick? I guess the length is probably determined by the original A-10C stick, but am still curious.
This thing is amazing! When do you mount the whole thing on a stewart platform? j/k love it. It's awesome. Building the sim is as much a hobby as playing it.
So are you technically starting with a GPU considering you have power to the cockpit from the beginning? Awesome setup! Love that you have a b!tching Betty (alt monitor) And its amazing how similar the engine start up procedures are to the airframe I used to work on.... I'm a retired USAF jet engine mechanic and crew chief
Do you have maps of Martin State Airport in Maryland? That is where the 175th Wing's A-10s are. It would be cool to see you fly over nearby Baltimore City in the simulator.
This is the sickest home sim pit I’ve ever seen. I wanna do something similar but I was thinking I’m gonna scratch the projector and do a VR HMD. Do you have links for all the gauges and panel switches
Awesome work mate, love your simpit and your attention to detail! Very well done video too, I like that you refer to the checklist although you surely know every switch inside-out - very professional!
Imagine setting all of this up and getting the plane up and running then mom is like “dinners ready etc”
Computer's like: 10fps
I'd think by the time you can afford all of this it's been 10 years at least since you got a place of your own
@Milo Yossarian What makes you think I was all serious? Have a coffee. It's on me.
Because anyone with this kind of setup is DEFINITELY still living with their mom. Respect to Moms!

@AB just fly it in reverse
Could you imagine spending all that time designing, building and implementing this setup, only to discover you don't like flying the A10.
Yes because the A10 is boring.
The A-10 Is so boring because all of y'all have the attention span and memory of a fish. Maybe if you stopped doing needless air to air combat and supported the troops on the ground, war would be a whole lot easier.

An A10 pilot may not be qualified to fly this flight sim.
"Pull up! Pull up!"
"Never!"

Neveaaaaarrrrrr.
He did not fit wings and wheels to his room. What a noob.
Just kidding. Best setup ever. Is the cockpit specific to 1 aircraft?
Yeah, specific to the A-10
Nah his house is full of cockpits
yes but it also works for other aircrafts, maybe not all the buttons but the joystick and the throttle thing should still work
I know that because I have the joystick the pedals and the throttle right here
