      Perhaps the most complicated – and once more, expensive – aspects of building a one is the Forward Overhead Panel which will likely set you back anywhere from $1000 for an extremely basic one, to (more likely) $7000 to $10,000, possibly even as high as $12,000 for a fully accurate and articulate design.

      Not that i want to build a simulator but there’s none with Arduino or Raspi?

      If this guy only has 600 hours, he wasted his money. I’d expect this guy to have closer to 6000 at this point.

        Don’t worry, he’s got 10000 hours in various other flight sims

        Why? If one knows that they will play a LOT and wants the extra realism. Would it not make more sense to buy it at 600 hours than 6000? Or are you only allowed to buy expensive stuff if you spend thousands of hours without them first?,

    I mean with the right flight sim and setup it’s functionally identical to the experience of flying a real plane, just without any of the potential danger.

      Yeah, like even if you don’t have a HOTAS, if you’ve successfully landed a plane in sim you know what the procedures are and how to approach, which is very helpful if someone needs to talk you down.

    If I were the pilot and my copilot died and I was about to pass out I’d legit be calling flight simulator bro up to the cabin.

    Today’s your day bro.

    So realistically how would someone like that fare? Assuming they were being guided too.

    A pilot I know uses that for training so it’s not the worst option from the crowd
