Homemade F-16 Simulator Cockpit: Flying high

They are different ways to get high and while we do not approve most of those, this is one way of blood-pumping and adrenaline gushing high that we are all for. A Kiwi has just put together a F-16 Simulator Cockpit and this one is sure to set your heart racing the moment lights are turned off and the projector turned on to give you an airtime that is firmly grounded!

The Fighting Falcon cockpit has been the model for the simulation cockpit design and the precision to which it has been replicated is simply staggering. Every detail has been put into place to give you an experience that is as close to reality as possible. There are functioning flight controls (HOTAS), rudders, switches that mimic the real deal and an Up Front Controller.

There is also a PC unit inside that will exclusively run Falcon 4 Allied force to give you the gaming experience unlike anything else. Obviously building a custom design simulator of this sort is no easy task and every precaution has been taken to make the wingless flight as exciting as possible. An embedded 5.1 sound system allows you to hear and feel every little buzz and big bang with great clarity.

Add to it a flying helmet and IR4 Tracker and your fighting flying experience is complete and you have everything you need to combat in the battlefield up in the clouds. And when you are done, you can just open the door and walk back into your living room. Just all too easy for this ingenious Kiwi!
