BVLS UAV Flight SIM

Unread post by KZNChris »

Greetings all ,

Just been watching this very kool aerial footage

Prince Albert South Africa (from The sky in 4K)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiYdMeXonLM

This got me thinking ( dangerous meme destruction )

My question ;
Would it be possible to "slave" a DJI inputs / controls to a computer with flight sim controls and a big monitor
ie "fly" the DJI in similar fashion to the bigger UAV's rather than via the standard small screen and control box

What would be needed to do this ?
I would hazard a guess the required hardware and other bits and pieces already exist
Some clever programming ?

Being able to do this would I think be really really kool ....
