i wonder about the long term destiny of flight sims

[RDDR]

My My ....Quite entertaining

[Ze-Jamz]

Erm...

[raaaid]

all right what would you prefer dogfight with this toy from your pc at home from someone who rents this devices on exotic locations

or dogfight clod online?

i cant be the only one who sees the potential of this toy

these are the future online cams on different locations

have you ever used remotely onlinea cam you could rotate?

well this is next

[bongodriver]

You are quite right raaaid.....I suggest you abandon PC flight sims and buy yourself one of those things and venture into a new beginning...well miss you.

Huh?

[raaaid]

yeah well i think ill take a vacation from this forum since im not playing the game so cant discuss anything since ot is not allowed

one thing is giving your positive energy to a forum but another very different taking the negativity from most

have you noticed though this is an interesting topic 90% of people have been slightly rude

Listen Raaaid, I know your cause:

I fly a lot of RC planes, and I've imagined with the recent FPV (First Persion View) cameras that work a little like track IR with live-video feed, you could carry out some cool dogfights.

I've thought of the ability to fit RC planes with metal BB guns or .22 ammunition and have a go at eachother but:

RC planes are expensive already, and constantly rebuilding them would cost a lot of money and time.

Also, you would have to set up a huge indoor bullet-proof hangar to have these fights in, since noone would want to stand anywhere near an RC-dogfight that fires real ammunition. It's a reason they have "robot-fights" in cages.

RC planes are often way more unstable, quicker and manouverable, but most importantly, smaller. So hitting anything would be near-impossible.

The idea is cool, but really I'd spend my bucks on a simulator where there's always a "refly" button than the alternative of collecting your burning wreck, salvaging what you can and spend loads of hours and $$$ on repairing it, maybe to have it shot down in less than 5 minutes.

Don't you agree?

I have more bets on a "Matrix" type simulator, where you can sedate your body somehow and link your brain to a "server" where you interact much like in a dream that you can control. You could actually enter a computer-generated spitfire, start it like in real life and go flying. Feel the engine vibrate, the wind blowing and smell stuff as if you were there.
However, like nightmares, you can wake up cold and sweating with a high heartrate. So some ways, experiencing being shot down or PK'd in a world that simulates the real thing... I'm a bit sceptical to that.

Anyways, keep fantasising
