Generally, the use of parallel motion mechanisms has become the standard for human-in-the-loop simulation. However, the realization of a flight simulator with reasonable fidelity is only achievable using a well-tuned motion cueing algorithm that conveys accurate, real-time cues to the user while maintaining safe use of the available platform workspace. In this paper, the necessary setup and interfacing is done with the X-Plane simulation environment for the purposes of testing and tuning the parameters of a developed motion cueing algorithm. In addition, the design and implementation of prototype pilot controls, namely the yoke and rudder pedals are also undertaken to fulfill interfacing objectives and are integrated into a fixed-seat simulator platform to conduct a full pilot-in-the-loop simulation. MATLAB/Simulink is then used for interfacing hardware pilot controls and the simulation environment as well as the real-time tuning of motion cueing parametersenMSA UniversityOctober university for modern sciences and Arts MSAFlight SimulatorHuman-in-the-LoopMotion CueingPilot ControlsInterfacingArticle
