Hey Everyone!
My name is Jude and I am a senior at The University of Tulsa studying electrical engineering. For my senior project, we're refurbishing a space-shuttle simulator at Tulsa Air and Space Museum for kiddos, set to open in May.
The experience will last somewhere between one to two minutes.
The majority of engineering work will be spent accomplishing the following:
- modify the flight time to be approximately one minute
- modify aircraft control by disabling the yaw (and maybe roll)
- interface with external components such as joysticks, cabin lights, speakers, motors, etc
Because of the strict deadline in May, I am hesitant to dive into the Orbiter only to find that it won't not work for the museum's needs. Will Orbiter be adequate for what we need?
Thank you so much!
PS Any advice you have for me is much appreciated!!
