Total fantasy: But what if we use remote control planes to do the dog-fight for us within the future? The year would be like, 2050 or 2060, and humans would no longer pilot planes within planes, but rather somewhere on the ground. Therefore decreasing the percentage of deaths within mid-air battles by a lot. Although there is a lot of flaws with this, it's just a cool thought that I'd like to share about. But like, with remote control planes, you wouldn't need to worry about G force or death. But you would need to worry about the distance, and how strong your connection with that plane is. Lose connection, and that plane is going to fly into the ground. You can also have your plane hijacked, but I'd hope that they'd fixed that with super powerful malware defenses. _Tesla, but planes_ lol
I tried to do that on my modified copy of their RC seat. The delay is like, playing on an asian server from America, i do think they have better equipment from me so they would succeed on making one.
@@InterplanetaryLuis I have never tried an RC plane and most of the pilots I know have not....but I have used a simulator so I think it would be a lot like that because like with a simulator, you don't get to *feel* the plane. I wonder how hard it would be to interface their setup with some of the more advanced flight sim controllers out there like the Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS (the stick can be modified to be longer which I have done) and MFG Crosswind pedals to give a heavier feel.
GreyMaulkin yea I agree I fly the 182T and I fly RC as well but most of the guys I know don’t fly them but most pilots I know are fighter pilot and soon to be me as well I can say when I get to my platform hopefully the F/A-18F I want to buy the RC version and try to see if it flys like the real thing
Head-tracking systems. Did one on my sim-pit. I've dreamed on ways to get g effects. And to change control force with changing air velocity over the control surfaces.
Look into "Force Feedback" which has become part of a good gaming steering wheel and see if any of that tech can solve your lack of input resistance. Get ol Peter to join in and have him figure it out.
Or look into how they link up the controls on flight simulators that people build at their homes , you can find them on you tube. One guy built an A10 cockpit.
@@StigBSivertsen It's been done for 1/10 rwd drift cars but, never seen it on an aircraft. Getting the gyro/accelerometer data sent down with the telemetry to the TX would be ideal for simplicity and probably lower latency. I know that data should be available in mavlink/MWC but, then it's a matter of taking that raw data and creating an algo to interpret it for feedback. You're gonna need to be familiar with coding and pid loops and then probably a decent amount of hours of your time this is before even thinking about the physical build.
The most basic and easiest way would be to have some big beefy servos linked to throttle input increasing tension on bungees attached to the yoke and rudders. Easily do-able and better than nothing..
Very well done! Bruce Simpson started something like this a while back, but I don’t think he’s finished it yet. There was another chap who built an enclosed trailer containing a hooded cockpit with a large monitor for the visuals, ventilation fans, etc... so these things are out there, but yours seems to offer the most bang for the bucks. I’m really looking forward to future episodes! On a related note, you could probably adapt a throttle/stick/rudder gaming setup by wiring the various switches to modes, rates, etc. on the transmitter board. That would give a more natural feeling in the stick too. Whatever, you done good, so hurray! :-D
If Alex sees this, I want to thanks him for helping my grandma. She called the store to order my birthday present, but she was so confused. This proves the great customer service that Flite test has and what they stand for, “bringing more people into the hobby.”
YES, FT HAS THE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! A few years ago I ordered a mighty mini ft f-22 and it came bent and creased, I was so disappointed. They then quickly sent a new one, but was bent and creased worse than the first. Just handling, not their fault. When I contacted them they were so surprised by the poor handling of the postal service that they sent me two, yes two kits and 5 gremlin posters signed by everyone at Flite Test. You will never find better customer service, as you found out, than at Flitetest!!!
Add in the camera gimbal gyro technology so when you turn your head it turns your camera too. The camera could be tail-mounted to help with spatial awareness. This concept is really cool and could help the new generation of training pilots!
I've been suggesting them to build a large H-4 Hercules for a while now as there next "big" project. Its an iconic plane built by an icon in aviation and I just love flying boats.
Which makes us say it more. I don't think it was called the Hercules, cos another fairly large turboprop plane is called the Hercules, many were made and they are still flying. But Howard Hughes didn't like the term "Spruce Goose" since it actually wasn't spruce, anyway.
@@Justwantahover if you mean the Lockheed Martin C-130 Hercules, many are still being made (it's one of the few '50s designs/planes still flown in service, eg the U-2). But they just named it after a Roman/Greek god which happens more often (eg P-8 Poseidon). They just happen to have used the same name twice as happened with the P-38 and F-35/P-47 and A10.
Nice job, i like how its all mechincal. Maybe make the carbon rod longer. Also, if you did, you could build a box around the top and add bungees to add some tension. For the pedals, you make want to make them adjustable so kids feet can reach. You could also add springs in reverse on them to act as that push you mentioned. Think of two mouse trap springs applying force in opposite directions while the bungees balance the load
Here's one solution to the lack of motor sound feedback: hook up another speed controller to the throttle lever, varying the RPM of a small electric motor mounted to the cockpit, so you can actually hear a nearby motor responding to all your throttle inputs.
That was totally amazing! I remember back in the '90's where one of the Model Airplane News guys (he wore a visor with the bill of it cut back for RC flying) reviewed a side stick transmitter. The box was strapped to your fore arm, and it had a side stick (like a fighter jet) that would fit in your hand for line of sight flying. I've never seen one since...but this one is a dream come true. Nice work!
Awesome cockpit boys! For some feedback you could always hook up a fan in front of you and a rudder behind. Wind in your face and that chair would 360 degree pivot nicely with a rudder behind it for real feedback.
A couple of ideas for y'all. (Disclaimer I have no knowledge of flight rc or piloting, but I have a very mechanical problem solving brain.) The feel of the throttle you were describing the vibrations you feel in a real plane. A second potentiometer mounted to the throttle that controls a vibration motor on the seat and possibly a second on the rudder pedals. The second you said the return to center on the pedals a magnet on the string and a magnet or piece of steel on the board under the milk crate. Love the channel and entertainment guys keep up the great work.
I’ve often dreamt of the perfect simulation, including a complete 3D representation of the cockpit, with controls, buttons, headtracking, and a seat that can pitch and roll.
Hmmm... That huge P51 with twin convergeing airsoft or pantball 'cannons' chasing the rest of the crew round the golf course.. Hell yeah! Would be very Top Gear.. I mean Top Gun.. ish.
@@NickHeinWV That would require having friends in high places. I'm an introvert in a middle of a pandemic, so it's unlikely that I'd be able to borrow a laser cutter from anyone anytime soon.
This would be so cool for disabled people like me that used to go model flying but can't any more due to disability issues, very nice Thanks Bob in the UK

The Spruce Goose is Perfectly restored and maintained at the Museum in Mcminnville Oregon. They also have an SR71, along with a bunch of other great planes, and their own IMAX Theater. Very kool place for a weekend visit, hotel and airstrip within walking distance.
Brilliant! Grand Turisimo came alive for me when I got a Logitech steering wheel. Way too many hours late into the night. Now I learn to actually fly? Take my money!
Unless you've seen it in person, you can't really appreciate the size and engineering that went into the "Spruce Goose"! (I helped build the covering over it in Long Beach, beside the Queen Mary!) It's B I G...!
The image of Howard Hughes flying a radio controlled model of the Spruce Goose suffers from the well known Mandela Effect. The picture actually shows the engineer Ernest Stout radio-controlling a model seaplane way back.
You guys for RC planes, Mike Patey for full scale. Your content is great and it’s so good to see engineers at work irregardless of what they are building. keep it up! good stuff, thanks!
Boy...you guys at Flite Test have come so far from 8 years ago when you just did airplane reviews! Your constant innovative ideas and creations are leading you to a seriously large developer of aircraft and and accessories.
You just motivated me, thanks for the tutorial and idea. Instead of having to wear VR and get in a driving set to play Forza Horizon, I think its better if i just put cameras in my Airbus and explore the real world while seating on my newly working RC driving seat. My friends and i even argue with who goes first lol
Great video and same here, when I first started my fpv experience I had mates interested too but now I am on my own I still want to fly but it takes a lot to get me to the field, you people make me want to go out and fly as your enthusiasm is incredible, still having the go to make great videos like this one and share them with like minded people, thanks for another great video.
That is an awesome build I hope you guys do continue on making it into something for visitors to use when you have an event. It looks like it might be better with a different chair. I think the seat of the chair should be lower than it can go currently. That would allow for different lengths of peoples legs without the chair needing to move as much or at all. Maybe make a more beefy version in the style of the Howard Hues style so it will stand up to lots of people trying it out. Ultimately maybe this can be the beginning of making a full force feedback and full motion sim chair that would still control an RC plane.
Really cool. Next upgrades should be a goggle acceleromater that changes views if you turn your head. I noticed you were turning your head to look left and right (which of course doesn't work). But it would if you had multiple cameras on the plane. Also, next iteration should do a yoke instead of a stick. All in all, a good project.
Is this how pilots finna fly planes in the future? wow! At least Ryanair pilots knew they would die if they crash landed. Now they can fly without their lives on the line. (This is a joke! I am not dissing Ryanair pilots.)
A nice head tracking system I think would really bring it up a level. Being able to look over your wing would be amazing. Especially with the DJI goggles and their resolution.
Great idea guys, you are the “leading edge” in the RC world. Think of the possibilities.........RC warship battles, RC tanks, RC cars, even an RC “500”. Really exciting! Regards, Jimp
Can you guys make an ejector seat and put it on a rc airplane? Love the content.
Yes please
We gotta like the comment so they see it. Bloody fantastic idea!! : )
Have the FPV connected to it lol
YES! E-seat!

And make the chare move forward when your going faster and back when your slowing down.

Just add a BB gun to the plane and a trigger to the rudder to dogfight.

Is this how pilots finna fly planes in the future? wow! At least Ryanair pilots knew they would die if they crash landed. Now they can fly without their lives on the line. (This is a joke! I am not dissing Ryanair pilots.)
A nice head tracking system I think would really bring it up a level. Being able to look over your wing would be amazing. Especially with the DJI goggles and their resolution.
EAA and AOPA pay attention! Awesome way to get some new pilots started!
Great idea guys, you are the “leading edge” in the RC world. Think of the possibilities.........RC warship battles, RC tanks, RC cars, even an RC “500”. Really exciting! Regards, Jimp
