Bumping an old thread..... This looks awesome & I can imagine a decade later this concept is full of potential for RC plane flyers.
I am considering something like this for an FPV quadcopter but I doubt there is a reliable way to replicate the gimbal feel of a proper RC radio. The controls would need to be incredibly precise and aim to reproduce the gimbal feel of thumbsticks.... I don't feel this is something that can be upsized while keeping the familiar feel of flying FPV.
Interested if anyone has considered/done anything similar. Basically a Star Wars sit down cab but you are interacting with the real world in real time.
