There's also the ground effect. It's impossible to get a feel for it on a simulator.

- arh68 13y agoDo you think a 3-D image could enhance the 'feel'? Could a flight sim feel significantly more real w/ Oculus Rift?
- Filligree 13y agoI can see VR being a dramatic improvement for flight simulators, but you'll still need a good flight model.
- lutusp 13y agoA 3D simulation would represent a big improvement for formation flying or landing and taking off, but not so much for flying at altitude for obvious reasons. But the absence of body accelerations in a simulator is a big obstacle standing in the way of realism. Big, expensive simulators have a cockpit mounted on hydraulic actuators to partially address this issue -- the cockpit moves around to provide some accelerations and try to improve the subjective sense of being in motion.
