WeightSHIFT+CTRL by Aileron
Hang-gliding simulator done right.
IMPORTANT: WeightSHIFT+CTRL has a successor game which is currently under development (2023/07/28). This demo probably won’t be updated further. Check out the new game demo at https://aileron-split.itch.io/konvektio-stream-game.
The weight-shift control model and a proper multi-body physical simulation of this simulator make it very distinct from traditional aircraft simulators and perfect for simulating ultralight aircraft like hang-gliders.
Desktop (non-VR) version is available here on Itch.io for free. The hang-gliding simulator was originally developed as a VR teaching aid in a hang-gliding course with realism and piloting exercises in mind. Hardware components were made out of real hang-glider parts. The software was developed specifically for this purpose because existing generic flight simulators do not simulate weight-shift controlled aircraft accurately enough. Therefore, custom aerodynamics and rigid body setup were developed in Unreal Engine 4.
