Primary Buffer Panel - The Simulated Cockpit On A Linux PC For More Immersion In Space Pew Pew
A glorified DIY joystick controller with an LCD ('MFD') and plenty of RGB.
- DIY headtracker with Opentrack
- DIY button box with LCD ("MFD") display
- DIY status indicators using a Neopixel
- Lots of plumbing with Node-RED
- Arduino Mega with a custom Rust daemon for driving the joystick and LEDs
- A custom “App” written in React to drive the MFD
- …and a Linux PC to power all the crazy 🤪
I did set https://SimPit.dev/ live yesterday where I'm writing up all my collected SimPit clutter of the last 3 years in a more cohesive way. Feedback appreciated 🙃 More to come. (Oh yeah and ads and tracking free cuz I can't stand this ***).
I'm kinda blind on the topic by now after hacking away on this page for days so I'd appreciate feedback. Especially if something is broken.
Site may be slow af. I'm hosting this in my backyard. Videos are mirrored usually on PeerTube and YouTube though so pick your poison.
Amazing work, and thanks for documenting it all! Is there a repo where we can find all the custom code?
@warmaster @[email protected] partially where noted. Still hacking away on some with a hot needle but I'll release all in the end.
I do give tours 👌
