Virtual Reality Full-Motion Helicopter Flight Simulator on FSX

[maxsteele20]

"Tommy Lee - Good Times"

[TheMilitia123]

Gonna buy one 4 sure...

[Xwing213]

What was the song you used? :O

[artaza99]

your lucky

[ldandco]

Missing inertia, so why maybe it is not that realistic

[23492727]

nice chair, but the graphics of the game looks like shit

[hildegain]

@23492727 Good thing the game isn't about graphics then.

[CRGboy1]

name of the song?

[eustispanther]

I've seen multiple people ask for a price with no response. It must be disproportionately high for what you get. A mounted office chair and some software... Cool but seriously how much, 4 figures ? 5 ?

[viacarlton]

Lol @ little cooling fan on bottom of seat

[KillerShark97]

were can i buy one of these??

[chainlinkdreams]

super fake! yeah you said it's green screen which isnt hard to tell but the on-screen stick is no where near matching the "rider"s' stick, so either your machine is dredfuly slow or this is some tom foolery, and imma go with the later of the two

[esmonout]

Song: Tommy Lee - Good Times

[mike789963]

SONG!

[zerocker45]

How much is that chair? I mean that is truly cool...

[tommyheavenly22]

every time i see a video with this song, the video turns out to be shit

[gribguy911]

so fucking guy 

[rob11s]

song?



[craker3833]

lol that rig looks like it would be more expensive then a actual helicopter

[GrooveBold]

why is he sitting there staring at a greeen wall? o.O

[Epickmon]

@GrooveBold U retarded :P? He's seeing it all in his eyes. He has tv monitor glasses in his eyes :P

[bongwapu]

ei whats the song???

[combly7]

hey what song are you using for this vid

[XXXloverallyXXX]

i Want it really cool is aviable on italy?

[BELIX84]

what is your price? thank you very much

[HuasoPodrido]

Do you have full cyclic and tail rotor authority? I did not see the collective, do you have one installed?

[KingHaggis]

Wow, a high tech full motion seat and a crappy old graphics card :-)

But seriously, that chair is nice! I'd love to have one myself!

[KalilFilosofia]

COOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLL



[TurboSoldat]

TURN OFF THE FUCKING MUSIC!!!!!!!!

[Mosfet510]

Very nice!



[perfectplastic]

Why the screen is a Chroma???

[rolfen]

Why the ski mask?

[goldencal4ev]

i think u FAIL at flying im only 13 and im 1000 times better and ive actually taken off in a King Air!

[Donzieja]

@goldencal4ev

I think you fail at trolling, because it's very easy to take off in a King Air.

[MurderDeathKill01]

rather crummy graphics for FSX< neh?

[oliver18754]

What's the blue or green screen thing for?

[geezermeezer]

this is fookin awesome!!!

[squiddie96]

i want one!

[caioghiotto]

Man if this gets good enough, why not adding this to a Fly-it sim?

[rodier2]

Price?

[rotorxtcy]

Hello; outside of all the na sayers I would like to know on a serious tip when will this go into production for sale? I am a pilot in training and every amount of time I can get on something that is very realistic is good. How compatible is this with Helo's.

when will you sell a Helicopter version with realistic throttle control and collective? you may contact me at rotorxtcy@hotmail.com. thank you.

[rhd75]

How would this work with head tracking? Presumably, if you mounted the head tracking camera on a bracket attached to the chair, the system wouldn't get confused as you roll and pitch..?

[MrColdcore]

I would probably fall asleep ;p

[johnfoster187]

I see that you are wearing a headset. :-))

You should give voice recognition for FSX or FS9 a go.

Try something called "Multi Crew Experience" (for which a fully working 7 days Demo is available for download) and it will make your life a lot easier with the chopper.

[SheepJumpFish]

If you going to build that wouldn't you use a realistic simulator? That looks like a helicopter and I haven't flown a simulator with worse helicopters than FSX.

[lilbro209]

So someone like myself who is around 6ft 2in and 260lbs am I too big for this? Most people at this point would complain about descrimination but the way I see it, it is a reason for me to get back into shape! Thanks!

[xAcxDcx]

So what happens if you do a roll?? :P

[SimbolRides]

@xAcxDcx We split the Y Axis in our flight profiles along the horizontal plane. As you continue to roll, our simulator will return to center when you're upside down. It is much smoother than the alternative, which whips the rider in the opposite direction (split on a vertical plane).

[madzane94]

@xAcxDcx LOL!

[jaffabend]

@xAcxDcx - the pilot falls out of the chair and his coffee goes all over the ceiling...

[jonathancarl123]

@xAcxDcx barel roll barel roll do a barel barel roll

[hayabusafmw]

@xAcxDcx HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAAHHA

[snowboyz34]

fake green screen

[WeAreBorg359]

Cool video. Wish I had one!

[thepiarno]

What the .... ! Cool!! But your movements with the cyclic don`t seem to be very realistic! Much too big moves! ? I am asking as a very experienced x plane Heli pilot! :-) Where the f..rog did you get that chair-thing from??

[billmalta1]

what a shame to have this kind of equipement and play it with the lowest graphics available

[PAPERGUNLOVER]

green screen u can tell

[SimbolRides]

@PAPERGUNLOVER I added a caption on my green-screened videos just to be clear. This was done to balance the exposure not to trick. The rider is viewing the display in real time, which is just off camera. Thanks for your comment...really! There have been many like it and I finally decided to do something....D

[ji3200]

@SimbolRides how many actuator are you using?? how about weight capacity?? thanks

[SimbolRides]

@ji3200 Our rig has 2 actuators that are custom designs. By themselves they probably move 50lbs or so. In our base, they'll move over 200 lbs. There's a bit of a trick in our "patent pending" tech.

[dietrichian]

What kind of half assed chair is this? Where are the rudder pedals? A very vital component of any helicopter.

[SimbolRides]

@dietrichian this kind of half assed chair is called a "prototype" and was posted to show our motion capabilities and get feedback on that aspect. The current generation is outfitted with the new Logitech G940 system. We will offer mounting plates for the Saitek X52 series as well as various driving setups like the G25 and G27. Thanks for your comments.....D

[SimbolRides]

Those are not video glasses. The green-screen was done as an experiment so we could light the room better for the shot. The rider is viewing a monitor just outside the shot.

[360kal]

they put the green screen to show the image size he is getting from those video glasses

[flyboy6753]

greenscreen

[robertozube]

how much?

[gggggggggggggggggg16]

whats the song called?  also nice video

[LeoNatan25]

Bluescreen fake in this video.

[speedstacker911]

that is freakin awesome dude!!!
