I added a third Benq 1080ST Projector- for a 270 degree wrap around screen!
The first video on how i made the cheap 180 degree screen is linked here- • D.I.Y. Cheap Curved Pr...
The software I use to warp the image in game is 'Fly Elise-ng Immersive Diplay Pro' - fly.elise-ng.net/products/
The software used to calibrate the image and generate the DCS lua file is 'Fly Elise-ng Immersive Calibration Pro'. This software is seperate, however it comes with a purchase of 'Immersive Display Pro.'

I was a crew chief on A-10s from '86-'92 out of Myrtle Beach AFB. I used to do my engine run qualifications in a real A-10 simulator. It was a multi-million dollar simulator controlled by a mainframe and it had NO outside visuals. Your work on this is amazing! I bet our pilots would have loved to have something like this to train in before going up on their first flight. Being a 1 seater they were solo on their first flight.

That classic “I’ll put the brakes on, and he’ll fly right by me” manoeuvre, was an actual thing!

No. 1- there is a difference in the movement of the camera inside the virtual space according to the movements of the accelerometer built into the VR helmet and the actual movement of the head 2 - Depending on the viewing angle and involving peripheral vision, the real resolution in this installation is much higher, because here the resolution of the projectors is tripled (potentially 4K x3), and in the helmet the resolution is divided by 2 (i.e. maximum 4K /2). 3 - Here the tension of the eye muscles and lens is much lower due to the distance to the plane on which you need to focus your eyes. 4- real control panels 5- And if you compare the cost of three projectors and one suitable helmet? ...

Agree, VR does this and so much more. Also this is a FLAT2D image, VR has REAL DEPTH, Real Scale of the world, also you can view UP (a welcome feature for combat plane)..or back, you are not stuck to one cockpit control panel, etc. There are multiple valid reasons to overcome this setup with VR.
