This is Project Wingman mission 01 Black Flag played on a Linux PC with Proton Experimental, OpenTrack with the Neuralnet Tracker plugin and my DIY HOTAS / rudder system based on Arduino Pro Micros replacing the original electronics in my Thrustmaster FLCS/Cougar gear:

I got Project Wingman on a sale months ago and I finally gave it a try. As an Ace Combat player I felt right at home. My initial experiment was with the XR glasses and woah that feels good in 3D and all but today I remembered that old Plasma TV in the basement. Got it second hand a year ago for dead cheap. Today I brought it upstairs to try it with the ViperPit and now I’m not sure what’s more awesome.
Well, that is if I feel like burning ~470W on top for that thing but hey this is for very specific gaming sessions only anyway 🤷
Guess I’ll spend more time in the ViperPit again 😀
@beko was also looking into building my own rudder. Arduino, Hall Sensors, some magnets and 3d printed parts. Did you designed it on your own or some ready to use design?
@paepke @beko it's an original that I converted from dsub to usb-c. Nothing printed. Things are different when it comes to the other cockpit panel. That's wood.
