[FF]_JeffreyLeftovers Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) Does anyone know if its possible to program a pair of vibration motors on an arduino to go off left/right according to your coordination state in il2? I have a buddy who programmed some motors for his racing rig but my understanding is those games have way more telemetry output than il2 currently. Even a simple program to play maybe a tone of increasing volume in left or right ear in response to change in coordination would be cool. Im just looking for a way to replace the seat of my pants. I feel so disconnected from the planes in il2 when maneuvering aggressively and I think it would be neat to find a way to compensate for that and bring the experience closer to flying real planes. I have no experience programming so feel free to talk to me like im a 7 year old.. im just an airline pilot that wants increase my immersion in game. I was looking into a jetseat but it doesn't look like it supports coordination input which is what im interested in. Ideally i'd love to have a motor on my stick to vibrate exponentially with AOA (like a stick shaker for stall) and motors in a seat cushion to vibrate with Slip/skid and maybe G load aswell.

I think Simshaker does something like that, I have a bass shaker setup in my cockpit and I think you can get it to vibrate with high AoA and various manoeuvres, I disabled it when I first got it because it annoyed me and it was a while ago now so I don't remember the details. If this sounds like a solution for you, look at the Simshaker Threads, the user Andre is the guy who made it and is super helpful.
Bob100 Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) Yes, the SimShaker Sound Module produces vibrations for stall and high speed shudders, plus landing gear, speed brakes, flaps, runway/taxiway bumps, etc. etc. I use that software with 2 AuraSound 50 watt bass shakers.
