Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of flight simulators, in particular to a button bracket for a flight simulator. Background Technique
[0002] A flight simulator is a game device specifically used to simulate the flight experience. It can reproduce the aircraft and the aerial environment, allowing players to perform flight operations in a virtual environment. Flight simulators are usually equipped with various simulation devices, such as a simulation cockpit, a motion system, a visual system, and a computer system, to provide a highly realistic flight experience. The various control devices, instruments, and signal display devices in the simulation cockpit are the same as those of a real aircraft. Players can operate various devices in the simulation cockpit, such as the joystick, throttle, switches, etc., to simulate real flight operations. At the same time, the motion system can simulate the changes in the attitude and speed of the aircraft, enabling players to feel the state of the aircraft's movement.
[0003] At present, the simulation level of flight simulators is very high. The joystick in its cockpit is usually the same as that of a real aircraft, and operation buttons are also provided at the top. However, due to the essential differences in flight driving skills between players and pilots, standard flight driving operations cannot be truly carried out. When players switch control devices in the simulation cockpit, it is easy for them to fail to grasp and operate the joystick and the buttons at its top well due to lack of proficiency and professional ability, thus affecting the player experience.
[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to improve this shortcoming. The utility model studies and improves the existing structure and deficiencies, and provides a button bracket for a flight simulator. Content of the Utility Model
