I think he gives all of the equipment sources at the end of the video. The only tricky part is the head tracker, and I am pretty sure the one he uses in that video is commecially available. The big forum for video like this is RCGroups. The same guy has a lot of other videos out there, he has one traversing a F1 track that is neat.

David, there's a guy at a private field that I fly out of that flies a glider with that setup you're looking for. They will be flying a turbine glider next weekend with it. If you're interested, I can put you in contact with him this Sunday ( very neat ). His head tracker is very different then the one you posted on that video.

Trick is, the system you showed is slick and uses the trainer port (on a radio that lets you assign channels to the trainer box). This system kind of messes up flying with an actual safety pilot using a buddy box, although you could do the same thing with a second transmitter for the goggles. I think it is very very cool.

Hi Matt:
now that is some great info,,, I like that a lot, could be done I just could not imagine flying at 150+ looking thru a set of goggles,
It truly would be like being in the cockpit,,, You could even look down at gauges and see true air speed and altitude, nice toy
