- | ====== G62 Cockpit Module ====== | ||
- | | :!: **WIP:** This article is a work in progress and is not yet approved for usage in the RP. | | ||
- | |||
- | The G62 is essentially a highly modifiable fully featured cockpit. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== About the G62 ===== | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | The G62 Cockpit Module can be easily upgraded or modified, offering a wide variety of configuration options to pilots: from adding neural control systems to replacing the hand-controls for a more familiar style of input pilots are used to, adding a Lazarus stasis module, even doing a complete operating system exchange for something more pilot-familiar. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Construction & Design Elements ===== | ||
- | |||
- | The cockpit is totally isolated from the rest of the unit and features an oxygen cyclers, heating and cooling systems, backup communications, | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Pilot' | ||
- | The pilot' | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Personal Storage ==== | ||
- | Behind and beneath the pilot' | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | |||
- | ==== Interface Equipment ==== | ||
- | The G62 features a highly sophisticated cockpit designed to let pilots make the most of the platform both militarily and in the civilian and law-enforcement sectors, though when ordering many of these features are entirely optional. | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | ==== G62 Display Helmet ==== | ||
- | By default, the canopy constructed of X. The material is one-way visible by design. While limited in view, the pilot makes use of a specialised helmet which overlays the outer-environment to the full of the pilot' | ||
- | |||
- | Almost the entire cockpit, including displays and buttons are are gaze-sensitive, | ||
- | |||
- | ==== G62 HOSAS hand-controls ==== | ||
- | The pilot themselves make use of a HOSAS (hands on stick and stick) for maneuvering which act as both throttle and stick in a full six dimensions and can be locked to handle more like a traditional throttle and stick either left or right handed at the flick of a switch. The craft itself uses fly-by-wire to ensure it remains balanced and stable, taking in pilot-suggestions and using its own inherently aerodynamically unstable design, body thrusters and other systems to maneuver further and faster than a traditional aeroframe would allow. | ||
- | |||
- | These controls can be swapped out with a more traditional layout if the pilot desires without special expertise. | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Secondary Controls ==== | ||
- | Rather than forcing pilots to navigate through a high number of complex menus during operations, OLED-Toggle-switches which change color and displayed text based on status can be used for rapid override and control of the system. The surface of these buttons are touch-sensitive, | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Glass Cockpit Elements ==== | ||
- | Beginning between the pilot' | ||
- | |||
- | The large central console which wraps about the pilot' | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Manual Command-Shelf ==== | ||
- | A brace-shelf can be pulled over the pilot' | ||
- | |||
- | This allows pilots to pass time using the machine as a standard computer to run programs locally or interface with local networks (which can be important during special mission-types), | ||
- | |||
- | ==== ARIA Vocal-Command Intelligence Parser ==== | ||
- | The cockpit features a multi-language vocal pickup system which can parse complex or abstract voice-commands into simple operations, asking questions, organizing the HUD display to detail specific information, | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Scripting ==== | ||
- | The system can be scripted either complexly running programs or even running a simple flow-diagram which can be filled with simple commands and over-rides and a library of common operations is included: for example, navigating to a set waypoint then awakening the pilot after landing, destination or complications arise, scanning comms for signals which match specific conditions and even simple dogfighting and evasion or automation of systems (for example turrets, missiles, to auto-fire guns when lined-up, etc) if the pilot needs to focus on other actions. | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | This can be useful if a fight is going to end badly and can allow a pilot to eject the complete cockpit or just themselves and still continue issuing instructions or even issue instructions remotely. The cockpit can then be recovered if the sortie ends successfully. | ||
