6.12 G-forces

 

G-forces are a side effect of being in motion. G-forces are the result of a (strong) movement combined with acceleration, de- acceleration or turning. It is possible to obtain the G- Force data from the Microsoft Flight Simulator. Using this data it is possible to simulate the G-forces by means of physical force. Examples of effects are:

 

  • Being pushed in your seat can be simulated by an inflatable pad under the cushions of the cockpit chair. When inflating the pad increasing G-   forces are simulated. A pad under the seat gives the feeling of being pushed in the seat, a pad in the back can be used to simulate acceleration. Using multiple pads spread under seat and back could in an advanced setting produce directional forces.
  • By tightening and loosening the seat belts using servo's, stepper motors or hydraulic/pneumatic tension, similar effects as above can be achieved.
  • Attaching a helmet to servo's or stepper motors with elastic strings gives the option to produce force effects.
  • There are even examples where real G-suites are integrated in the flight simulator cockpit system (MMMS/Cap17).
