Listening to your explanation, about your life experiences, explains why your so dedicated to aviation. Your humble, wise, realistic , and thoughtful. If this channel is a means to your goal I hope it yields many followers and revenue. The world needs to see more people of your character. As usual another educating, and entertaining video.
I really appreciate the kind words sir! Im just following my passion. Thanks so much for watching. Cheers!
@@HomeSimPilot I do under your efforts lil Bro, I stopped at PPL but still dreaming... Know that it is not late. You can get back current with your CFI, CFII, or MEI you are not rusty yet. My question though: Have you ever thought of 6 DOF Motion for your Sim? Bro, you could be the first for us to showcase at the Oshkosh aviation show. I got sourcing to start...
Awesome flight sim my man. I just turned 71 and was a student pilot in my thirties when I got married and pursued a career as technician at Kennedy Space Center FL Space Shuttle program. I do not regret that decision but had to put my flying ambitions on hold. I flew RC model airplanes while there but I am retired now and miss the real flying. You have inspired me to get a flight sim and get back into it. It is as real as it gets and if I make a mistake while practicing I don't have to worry about ending my life. I have just subscribed and will be watching more. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
I love that you include a close up of the dials and external camera so I can follow along
I appreciate you following along! 🛫
Actually I like it without the external cameras. I find I get a better sense of what the flight is like and get a better sensation without. I think that's the benefit of three monitors. Great video : )
@@HomeSimPilot im sure you have been asked this so many times but omg i love this how did you build it ? Do you have a video of your build ? Looks amazing 👏
For those who ask about “why not buy a plane? Because they can cost a whole lot of money. I just did an IFR flight from Palo Alto to Salinas. 2 hours, with is cost at $117/hour and the 2020 172 at $215/ hour. Do the math. Needless to say, I don’t fly as often as I would like.
And this is when oil is at historically low prices, it's only a matter of time before aviation fuel is 3x as expensive
He covered all the items that MUST be paid for after you purchase a plane that some people don't think about when thinking about buying a plane. I looked at several videos detailing the cost of owning a plane. One pilot says his cost is $24,000 a year and the other pilot says his cost is $13,000 a year. The amounts does not include what it cost to purchase the plane. He spent $7,000 over 3 years to build this awesome sim where he can perfect his craft. Great job SIR. I want to build myself a simulator just like this one. I can cut the cost of the computers by building them myself.
Absolutely in love with this setup! Great job Captain!
I appreciate it Jordie! Thanks a lot watching. I hope your training is going well 🛫
Yes! I've been very patiently waiting a new video! Thank you!!!
Thats awesome! Thanks for checking it out. I appreciate it
Excellent video, thank you for answering the FAQ's - always interesting to learn the background and journey of how you got to this point. All the best from the UK!
Good video, I like your patience and realism, and you're a good role model too!
I appreciate the kind words sir! Thanks so much for watching
Great video!!!! Love that you go Through the whole process. Great for students and new pilots
Im glad you thought it was helpful. Thanks a lot for watching! 🛫
Just found your channel and will be subscribing. Have to say I am envious of your setup and hope to build something similar in the near future. Your videos are very informative and I like how you interact with your viewers. All the best to you in life and future endeavors. As I work towards my PPL, I too fly a sim and it helps me retain knowledge and proficiency. I hope to buy a plane someday soon after retirement, however I understand how expensive owning a plane and all the expenses associated with flying can be. Until then I'm happy using my sim until I can get back in a cockpit. Thanks for sharing your story and keep your videos coming. Take good care.
I really enjoy your videos. I turned 52 this year and after loving airplanes my entire life I finally decided to start building a SIM a few months ago. Passed my Pilot Edge CAT-5 today and I am looking forward each day to learning more. Thanks for sharing.
You have a brilliant sim setup, sir, and this lapsed glider pilot is envious. I'm now retired, but travel and boating are taking up most of my time these days, so a good sim will just have to wait. Again. Congrats!
I appreciate the ride along. I know absolutely nothing about flying. I have flown twice in my 60 years as a passenger on commercial flight. I had no idea it was that complicated. Did not know there were so many checks and that you were always doing something with the plane. Very interesting. It would be my honor to be your passenger and fly with someone so dedicated, responsible, trustworthy etc. etc. You seem to be a good person with a good heart. Wish you all the success.
Thank you sir! There’s definitely a lot involved with flying so im fortunate to have the sim to practice. I really appreciate you watching my videos and the words of encouragement. It means a lot! Cheers 🛫
Wow, the ATC was so realistic I thought for sure you had recorded some and played it with your video! This was awesome. And your setup is realistic too, I totally got lost in the immersion!
You got me hooked back into flying!!!
I rented one of the hangars on the west end in Mojave for years when I owned a 182. Lived in Tehachapi, which is the airport where I took all my lessons from. Great Vid friend.
Your detailed description of cockpit procedures is invaluable. Glad I subscribed to your channel ages ago and equally impressed by how far you have progressed with your set up. Thanks for sharing.
Farayi Darlington Chaparadza Im constantly trying to improve my sim... im addicted! Thanks so much for watching and following along. I highly appreciate it! 🛫
Smooth Operator...Highway 58 from Bake to Mojave...Saw the cement plant starboard at Tehachapi...Excellent production...Thank You...Keep'm Flyin'...
Thank you so much for your videos! These encouraged me to really start getting into Flight Sims. I am playing Microsoft Flight Simulator, and picked up the Honeycomb Yoke, and am having a lot of fun with it. So pretty modest and simple setup, playing on just one monitor, and my PC has an RTX 2070, but still really enjoying it and hoping to expand my flight sim hardware to make it more immersive.
oohgoditsbees Im glad you got into Flight sims. I love them. My setup started with just a yoke, throttle and pedal years ago and it slowly grew. Keep going! I wish you all the best 🛫
Really enjoyed your CAT 6 Josh, keep them coming.
Enjoyed the flight, thanks for the ride along. Keep up your dream for Flight Instructor renewal. Great value. Gratefully.
Appreciate the support. Thanks for watching! 🛫
Man this is good content. I forget that it’s a sim when I’m watching. You have a good rig. And good content. I like the channel brother. Keep it up.
I'm so impressed with your work and set up !!!
Love your sim, man!.. you're a very creative man, keept the graat work!
This is absolutely amazing! I've been taking flight lessons towards my PPL on a Diamond DA20 and I love it. And I will add to your comment during the video about cost of flight training. It costs me about $200/hr to take lessons in the DA20 ($130/hr for the plane and $65/hr for instructor). Being able to offer flight lessons using your simulator would be a huge service to those that don't have that kind of money to spend.
Also, on cost of buying a plane. Diamond DA20 aircraft costs about $120,000 - $200,000. A Cessna 152 like you're flying in the sim can be found now at around $50,000. That's just for the plane, and that's still 7x more than what the sim cost. But with a sim you can fly anywhere in the world and not have to pay for all the other expenses.
You have a really cool setup. Fantastic video.
Thanks a lot for checking it out!
Always enjoy your videos. Keep it up!
Appreciate you watching!
Amazing footage, so chill and nice q&a too. Thank you for this wonderful vid mate ;)
Gildartz Thanks a lot for checking out the vid! I appreciate it 🛫
You identified perfectly fine on ground.great video
His videos are the best ASMR videos EVA!
JuanosPLAY lol thanks for watching!
@@HomeSimPilot My pleasure!
Awesome setup. Thx for taking the time to make and edit these videos.
Thanks for watching! 🛫
Love the sim and videos! I'm currently a student pilot and also have a homebuilt sim. About to do the CAT-6 rating on PE.
I think you have done an excellent job setting your sim up
100% Respect!
Exceptional narrating as you are flying. Thanks for teaching us. Would love some more explanations on how to land properly (maybe I need to do some reading ???). When do you make the turns in the pattern (I still don't understand this). Would also like a clear description of the distances and descent rates from various points in the patterns. Eg 1000ft AGL join pattern (from where), downwind 1000ft, base (turn and descend? what are the turn references and what should the altitude be ?), etc. I manage to land but it's never clean from a patter perspective and it's because I obviously don't understand the process. Would love a video clearly explaining this. Thanks for the wonderful videos and fingers crossed you get your dream (you will judging by the character you are). :-)
Thank you for highlighting the instrument panel, very helpful.
Thank you for another great video.
I’ve been watching a few of your videos and it looks so fun. I’m new to the simulator game but I can’t wait to get one where I can fly helicopters. Thanks for sharing your videos.
Fantastic video, amazing production value as always!
I appreciate that!
Very nice flight!!! Perfect landing
Fine job, well done mate!
Appreciate it! 🛫
again a very great work - I really appriciate. enjoyed the flight with you - so its time to make my "own" plane by your super education - thanks for it.
I really appreciate you watching! I wish you all the best 🛫
its great to see you running a gain
Well done!
Great job. Good procedural flight.
Nice video as usual . Keep them coming
tnx for sharing.
Nice job!
Great videos man, just a little bit of advice if I could. You seem to create PIO on final with left and right banking. Once you've got the Centreline and you're trimmed just let the aircraft fly itself. You get yourself into more trouble then good wobbling the yoke around.
Best SIM channel
nuclearthreat545 I appreciate you watching!
@Cessna11251 I'm a DCS SU-27 jet pilot jock but, this was great stuff. Thank you for posting this !
Wonderful video! Your cockpit is spectacular and I love your flying way. Very inspirating.
Congratulations, sir.
Greetings from Spain.
Looking Good Home Sim Pilot!!! Awesome Video !!!!
Navigator Jack Appreciate it Captain!!
Awesome pilot🏵💥🙏💥🏵
love your work bad ass
Phoenix East. Cool I was across the the runway at ERAU. But that was before you being there. I was there in 2001 until 2004 when I left and flew Part 135. I did that for eight months then got hired with ExpressJet. Left there in 2009 then started building aircraft. I think it is cool what you are doing. I like the Xplane Sim better than your MS2020 sim. Once MS steps it up then you will be golden. I wish I had what you have so I can teach my best friend how to fly. BTW, I grew up in Compton and was a Homeless man back in 2000.
Dang bro, that is some sick setup you got there.
Sibercat x Thanks a lot, I appreciate it!
Hi Josh. Another great video. A few things I was wondering. Do you think, in the future, you can do a behind the scene video of how you create your UA-cam video? I see in your computer specs you have a couple of video capture cards, and it looks like a video camera behind you. I like the pop up PIP panes on your video allowing your viewer a closer up view of what you are seeing, like your instrument panel, the GPS, the checklist, off the wingtip view, your iPad with its apps. What software do you use to capture and what software do you use to edit. I think that would make for an interesting video.
The other point of interest was that ElGato stream deck button panel you added to your instrument panel. What do you assign those buttons for? Do you think in the future you would take longer flights to where you can live stream and do a Q&A interaction with your viewers while in cruise flight? Ever thought about going LIVE?
Also, I would be interested to know regarding your Desktop Aviator Trim Panel with the six switches, one which you use for carb heat, and the circuit breaker which are actual buttons and the switch panel you made for you Microsoft Flight Sim, what have you assigned all those switches and buttons to do when activated?
Thanks. Keep up the great work! See you on your next flight.
Hello sir! Thanks for watching. You’re right I should make a behind the scenes video. Its A LOT of work that goes into making these vids, which is part of the reason why i don’t post often. Im using 2 pcs, OBS on both, 3 capture cards, NDI, i use my replays, etc.
The streamdeck made the process so much easier though.
Im currently getting setup for some live streams now and will start soon!
Love hearing this man!!! Would love to see you on Twitch!!! Thank you for sharing!!! Fantastic channel and setup!!!
Love your music selection too!!!
Another brilliant video. iam leaning a lot from watching your videos. thankyou.
Your confident talk while flying and executing maneuvers sounds like an instructor would be perfect for you.
Great video! Thanks for sharing your setup... greetings from argentina
NelsonSantanegger Thanks a lot for watching!
Excelente.
Damn, it's look like real plans
Love your videos, your passion shows. Can you do real time streaming on ground visuals, other flights, etc ?
People who comment on the cost of a sim vs the cost of either getting your license or buying a plane (yikes!) have absolutely ZERO idea what they're talking about. You could build 5 sims for the cost of an annual and maintenance. Not only that, sim builders ENJOY BUILDING sims and using them. I'm about a couple thousand and 100's of man hours into building my sim and I'm also a student pilot. The cost of building a sim is about equal to two cross country flights with an instructor. And the hours I put into learning in the sim, replace hours of flying in the real world using the plane as a classroom, which costs about $250/hr.
Another great video,love your channel,inspired me to start my own build little by little .can you share what scenery you used for that flight .
This is the first time I have encountered your video and I subscribed within minutes. I'm a pilot in training and also run the XPlane11 system at home. You mention looking for the road you're going to follow so I assume the scenery is real-world accurate. If I may ask, what did you have to do to get that scenery? My scenery is not real-world accurate and is useless for true VFR. BTW, your setup is amazing.
Your setup is really cool
Thanks a lot!
Dan Butler I am amazed by the very real sounding radio chatter, especially when you incorrectly identified Mohave as Bakersfield. Is this a feature of X-Plane?
Nice flight. Want to see you an IFR using VOR instead of GPS
Please someday show us how your settings are for the 3 tv ,beautiful sim !!
You have a great setup, do you have a written description of all the equipment?
Awesome video. How does the live ATC person work? Is it someone fielding requests as game mode or ? That’s really cool whatever it is.
pilotedge.net
Looking forward to MSFS supporting proper home cockpits like yours, really tempted to build something similar!
Eventually I think the support will come. Hopefully soon! 🛫
@@HomeSimPilot I'm pretty sure they will sort it out, both because they have stated they are aiming to cater to home-cockpit-builders, and because it is pretty essential for the longevity of a flight sim.
For the time being I will be happy enough when my RealSimGear stuff starts working though ;)
Maybe you could still help train people but in your sim. Get people ready for their tests but at a fraction of the cost.
What is that app you are using on your iPad? Love your setup :) Do you plan getting into airliners maybe?
Post. Great video again. Really nice setup and editing. You should set up a Patreon site and offer 1:1 or group consulting as a reward. I'm sure there are a lot of people like me that have questions and you have the valuable answers that are worth paying for your advice.
Noah Pruzek Hey man thanks for checking out the video and for the idea! I will start a Patreon and launch my website very soon. Im still working on different tutorials now.
Very cool videos man! I love it! What's the name of the app for the charts on the tablet?
Really enjoyed video. I didn’t notice magneto dead cut check before shut down?
How much taller are your TV stands than the top of your desk? What considerations were made when determining TV height? Your instrument panel is 47" wide, how tall from bottom to top? Keep up the great videos!!!!!
Josh, any input on this? Thanks in advance!!!
Nice vid and cockpit setup! Did you give up on FS 2020 and switch back to Xplane? I thought you switched to a glass display dashboard. Very realistic except I was always taught to yell "clear" out the window before cranking the engine. Nitpicking I know, so no offense.
I appreciate it! I built a separate G1000 panel so i can swap them out in less than 5 min. You’re right I was taught to yell clear too. I gotta do it next time. 🛫
This popped out in my recommendation I watch this channel video a week ago I'm not even subscribed
what is the app you are using on your ipad, it looks very good.
Hey just wondering what app do u use on your iPad? Ps loves the vids 😁
Great video, but what app are u using on the I pad?
I love yoru setup. How can I get a list of all the components? I woudl like to build one just liek yours.
what is your computer specification??? the gauges are nice shown how they work. please always let them to be visible to see if those airsim gauges work as real flight
Love your videos. I am a Cessna/Cirrus pilot and have been looking to simulate the best environment that is close to the cockpit for IFR practice (not FAA training). Will you be going into your monitor build/setup? (e.g. what stands, monitors, x-plane config).
Crazy Irish Thanks for watching. Ill be doing some IFR practice too once I complete the CAT ratings. And yes, im working on a detailed setup video now.
How did you make the flight instruments hit the MFS2020?
impressive brother. in holy ghost name amen. nice lay out in jesus name. brother how did you put those instrument in your screen during preflight check and run up???? any special program???
Dan Butler
Is there primer can be connected to arduino?
Stopped at 29:00 to comment...You don't have to justify why you spent the amount of money on your sim!!! I've been Simming since the early 1980s and that was back in the stone ages were talking about ( Attari II and Commodore 64s on floppy disks:))..( Microsoft FS 2).my first Flight Sim was made out of. plywood and pvc pipe for the fuselage and stick and rudder connected to the joysticks.. It was. Disco funky)... ( but it kept me current with procedures and muscle memory after I got my pilots license in 1979 it real helped)..( I used it for years.....every time a new sim came out ...I got it!!...A flight sim like the one you've got would be worth at least $100,000 .to $200,000.....US dollars or more and if put you put a #motion platform flight simulator set up under it... there is no telling what it would have been worth!!! $$$ ka ching$$$. Have you ever thought about mass producing it??? Anyway. it's your life and you can do whatever you freaking want to!!! I am flying one of my latest DIY sims in my garage right now!! (It's a po boy special..FSX..Laptop..Saitek X 52 stick throttle and rudders..total cost $250.00)...( Im flying in a Mooney right)...And no.. I don't have MSFS220!!) Next year..maybe!! Great video.Keep up the Good Work!! Keep building!!.And No you don't need VR!!!!.🐦🐦🐦.....
Hold up
AWESOME thanks for sharing. REALLY ENJOY all your videos
What program are you using on the ipad that has the blank ATIS form?
Thanks for watching! Im using the free FltPlanGo
Cool .. THANK YOU. Looking forward to future videos. 👍
Are those real gauges or digital
Man If you could build a setup like that, I bet you probably could build a Real Kit Plane from the ground up.
are you going to get a new 3000 series graphics card?
Awesome video but 1 question, does ur flight sim feel like ur actually flying a real plane?
Theres no motion so I cant feel any forces. I only get vibrations from the buttkicker which does help a little. Besides that, it does feel like being in the real cockpit
That's exactly it. I went for a flight from time to time. And besides the motion and the forces on the yoke (wich you also can come close to, but only with an expensive Brunner yoke) it feels very close to reality. Those birds today are really well simulated. Oh and @Home Sim Pilot, damn i really enjoy your videos! Keep'em coming and greetings from Germany!
Quecksilber The Brunner yoke is definitely a beast! Thanks so much for watching my vids. I appreciate it. Cheers 🛫
