Get a more real experience flying FlightGear using real instruments. Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software. FlightGear's IO interface allows easy development of hardware that can improve the immersion and realism of the simulation. The output protocols allows hardware to act on simulation data in real time and at the same, the input protocol allows FlightGear to act on hardware events.
