Why are Flight Simulators and their components expensive?

This video focuses on explaining how Flight Simulators can be so expensive, and does so by dissecting simulator gear and going over pricing for the basic components. When analyzing several components, we start with products from Logitech, such as the Pro Flight Switch Panel. These pre-built components are very popular and are usually the first many flight simmers purchase as accessories for their setup. We also mention products from HoneyComb, Aviatek, RealSimGear, Stay Level Avionix and Flight Velocity.

The video also addresses the topic of Fidelity and shows examples of how the prices go up noticeably based on this. All real world flying images an videos thanks to the Florida Flight Center.
