Default RE: Rc Simulator Idea

Do you realize the scope of the project you are talking about? A simulator more advanced then AFP and XTR, that would kick their *** at a fraction of the cost? You are talking thousands of man hours in development.

Everything you have talked for your project, AFP and XTR both have and more. Have you ever used either sim?

Real world physics are not just bundled up in a package and brought over to the PC world. It's much more complex then that. Not even Microsoft Flight simulator is even close to real world physics and has been on the shelves for 20 years with a new and improved version every 2 years with millions of r&d dollars pumped in every year.

If you do shoot for this project, good luck. However recruting from this forum, I don't believe is the right place. You would need some of the top gaming minds out there to beat what is currently out there right now with AFP, XTR and even G2.
