The Moving Axis AirCraft Simulator (MAACS) was our first experimental effort in motion flight simulation. We also delved into virtual reality along the way.The menu on the right is a series of videos that show how MAACS works. It shows how MAACS was developed, and how we tried different configurations.
...and we tried a lot of stuff. We called this rapid prototyping. Basically, you draw up an idea, then buy a bunch of boards and plywood, bang it together and see what works and what doesn't.
It was a lot of trial and error. It was frustrating and fascinating all at the same time. This is the MAACS series.
