A prototyping project should have a goal.  It should demonstrate something specific that will be useful in constructing a simulator.

I intend to post prototyping project outlines that are actually in in progress, or have been completed as separate wiki pages.


A template for such a project is available. [[ Howto:Build your own Panel or Cockpit - Prototype Project Template ]]

You can use an existing template, create a new template or just do it your own way.  The Template does advise that you name your project page in a specific way, and do the work of planning the project in your personal talk page.

The Template does recommend a name style for this part of the wiki.  [[Howto:Build your own Panel or Cockpit - Prototype for {PrototypeName} ]]
 
I also recommends expanding the template into a short plan in a personal talk page instead of just creating the page at the start. The reason: Planning items are likely to change drastically once you get into it.  So I'm recommending waiting until well into the prototype before posting the project outline as a separate wiki page. Working on a personal version and waiting to post it publicly will save others from dealing with early drafts.
