I decided to try and build mechanisms for a cockpit hologram similar to that found on the XFA-33 Fenrir. No particular reason I just felt like seeing if I could do it.
What the hologram does is show the position of your aircraft in 3D space. like if someone put tiny plane with orbit camera in the cockpit.
I had to rip out all the COFFIN panels on the test plane to do it though, but it works.
I'm aware it looks sort of strange given the outside visual cues of the cockpit but there's some application to this I promise
In practicality I would replace the current arrow looking thing with a miniature model of the aircraft.
@ThatOnePiaz
Ive built an XFA-33 in the past, but its nowhere near my current standard and doesnt even have an actual cockpit
I dunno I honestly just wanted to see if it looked good.
@ReinMcDeer Ive been trying to find a way to do that but I havent found a way. this is also the issue with the roll axis. I dunno I've tried to look and havent found anything
Now that I think of it
This would be nice as a target direction indicator.

this indicates that you are making a fenrir...?
basically, gyro horizon

Cool
I wonder if there is a way to make it not rotate the other way when passing 180 degrees heading though
For a second i thought it was the Fenrir from war robots lol. Anyways nice job! Looks amazing!
if the video will freaking work
