What’s Coming?
Desktop Pilot Unveils Full Flight Simulator: Elevating Realism for Pilots
We are excited to introduce Desktop Pilot’s Full Flight Simulator, a game-changing addition to the world of flight simulation. Tailored to replicate the cockpit experience of Cessna 152, 172, and 182 aircraft, this simulator boasts precision and realism for real-world pilots seeking an authentic training environment. Anticipated to launch in Q2 2024, we assure you that the wait will be well worth the revolutionary experience this simulator will bring to your training sessions.
The cutting-edge design features an integrated G-1000 glass cockpit, providing the level of realism demanded by actual pilots. The map page, complete with obstacle icons, terrain, and waypoints, ensures navigation experiences closely resemble real flight conditions, enhancing proficiency with every simulated flight.
Desktop Pilot’s Full Flight Simulator will include our very own Cessna-style Yoke and Rudder Pedals with passive force feedback, Vernier Throttle Controls mirroring the setup of the original aircraft, Flaps Panel, Multi-Instrument Panel with 3 round gauges, a Pedestal with the Fuel Tank Select, where the emergency fuel shut off valve mimics its actual position, and our new and improved Trim Wheel with indicators and autopilot feature.
In addition, it will come with three LCD monitors, providing a 180-degree panoramic view replicating the visibility real-world pilots are accustomed to and a comfortable and fully adjustable cockpit seat, which is a non-negotiable element for prolonged simulation sessions. The robust construction ensures a seamless and realistic training experience, providing pilots with a tool that mirrors real-world conditions for continuous, immersive practice.
Desktop Pilot’s Full Flight Simulator is not just a simulator; it’s a comprehensive training tool designed for pilots, by pilots. Elevate your training experience and immerse yourself in the world of Desktop Pilot’s Full Flight Simulator, where attention to detail, realism, and reliability come together in one convenient package, enhancing your proficiency with every simulated flight.
