looking to build a arduino controlled fan for wind simulator to be used for DCS

i saw this video,

details here

is it possible or does anyone have any info if i were to make something like this for Digital Combat Simulator? (faciliated through .lua?)

 

thanks!

well first, why would want to simulate that ? i don't think they have wind in the cockpit ^^ , unless you fly the p51 with open canopy :music_whistling:.

 

But in any case, you can connect via lua script to the game and extract many information about it (most of your plane state variable for example). If you have TacView, that's how it does it, it dump all the data in a file (i think :) )

DCS-BIOS could do it for the A-10C, UH-1H, and Mig-21Bis.

 

Driving a gauge or driving a fan is very similar in this case; You take the airspeed variable from DCS and drive a motor with it.
