zahry Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Black Shark Down - being shot down is no fun :-).
audax Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Why the hell do you have a great sim pit and use the acarde mode? New video in sim mode please.
Booger Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Not to be or sound rude (that's certainly not my intent of this post), but... Available for Order - $75 000 NZDFor that amount of bones, I would hope for a video that shows a lot more than just the pit view in the dark, regardless of which mode is being played. Nonetheless it looks fantastic. I would certainly want it for Black Shark.
power5 Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Looks awesome, but I would be so pissed I cant push the buttons in the cockpit.

Nate Hmm, that led to some interesting videos. I have a Wii I never use. Maybe I will make one of those gloves. :book: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Aaron i7 2600k@4.4ghz, GTX1060-6gb, 16gb DDR3, T16000m, Track IR5 BS2-A10C-UH1-FC3-M2000-F18C-A4E-F14B-BF109
zahry Posted September 28, 2011 Author Posted September 28, 2011 Hi All, :-) Thanks for the interest. I know the price seems quite high but when you have a look at it from commercial point of view it is cheap as chips - for home use not so much. if you consider the specs (size of the screen, number of projectors, motion feedback platform and variety of controls) it is a bargain - just the screen normally costs at least 35 000,- not mentioning the projectors and warping software which would cost about the same ;-D (check out immersaview prices and that's only front projection:-). The main market as I said are flight schools and flight simulation (gaming) centers. You can connect 4-8 of those simulators together and fly coop missions, aerobatics or dogfight and the price per hour is in a lunch money area. I'll try to post something with sim mode on once I'll learn how to use the Black shark properly, lol (so far I was using the simulator for airplane and helicopter training as you can see on other youtube vids.). That footage I've posted on youtube was from the first day I managed to get it going in the simpit and from my head cam. The cockpit is clickable with a glove (option A) or with a touchscreen (option B) at the moment I'm not using it as I'm struggling to remember all those 50 buttons and switches on cyclic and throttle (HOTAS):pilotfly:

I would certainly want it for Black Shark. It works for Black Shark, LockOn FC2, Wings of Prey, FSX, Xplane and some racing and shooting games. (A10 and cliffs of dover coming soon). I could make a simpler home version with front projection, cheaper controls and without motion but the immersion and the feeling wouldn't be there (I have Heli CPL/I so I'm always comparing to real life).
mvsgas Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Would it be cheaper to buy yourself a real Helicopter? To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that. Thank you for you patience. Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..
nemises Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 looks amazing though....really really immersive!
power5 Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Would it be cheaper to buy yourself a real Helicopter? +1 Much better deal. Not saying I wouldnt buy it if I was stupid rich and could waste my money on dumb things whenever I wanted.

zahry Posted September 29, 2011 Author Posted September 29, 2011 good news, soon you might be able to try it in combat flight simulation centres. I would love to have it at home myself but it is off my charts as well (even though I'm making it :-)
zahry Posted September 29, 2011 Author Posted September 29, 2011 Would it be cheaper to buy yourself a real Helicopter? Not sure about that :-D just my helicopter license cost me $140 000,- NZD and even the bloody r22 cost about $500 p/h these days, LOL.
Pyroflash Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 Yeah, rotorcraft tend to be a bit pricey when you actually look into them. You could easily buy yourself a used fixed wing aerobatic aircraft for the same price or less if you look in the right places though. However, it is probably cheaper in the U.S. to get certified in a rotorcraft unless you are talking about a private rotor, instrument rotor, and commercial rotor along with turbine class endorsements in one package. Then I can imagine it would cost something similar. However to satisfy your curiosities, R22 for sale $89,000 USD, and it's from 1988. http://www.trade-a-plane.com/detail/Piston+Helicopter/1988/Robinson/R22+Beta/1387393.html If you aim for the sky, you will never hit the ground.

Is that a professional/commercial license? That is like 10x more expensive than in the USA for a private up to 12k lbs license.

zahry Posted October 5, 2011 Author Posted October 5, 2011 Is that a professional/commercial license? That is like 10x more expensive than in the USA for a private up to 12k lbs license. that was all the expenses up to instructor (PPL/CPL/IFR/Instructor) - having a good sim back than it could saved me quite a few thousands :pilotfly:
XarBat Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 If I tried something like that at some sim center and DCS was set to game mode, I would ask for my money back.
zahry Posted October 5, 2011 Author Posted October 5, 2011 How is it working technically? Is there a 360° projector above the pilot? nope, all rear projection :) more detail on http://www.simpit.co.nz/specifications.html
