Additional side consoles are attached to the armrests these contain controls for communications and external monitor modes (on the left), drive/fuel system mode selectors, and warning monitors (on the right). The left armrest also sports a throttle lever, which seems to function something like a gear shift for the thrusters. Each side has a sliding control stick - I think the right is for weapons, and the left for steering, but there may be some functional overlap - plus a row of ten buttons for manually activating the apogee motors. The left and right armrests of the seat sport almost identical controls.

The front monitor console bears, left to right, generator starter switches a threat warning panel and monitor toggle switches. In between are a set of sensor mode selectors. The top monitor console includes two smaller screens - a rear-view monitor and a communications monitor (on the left and right sides respectively). The front and top monitors sport small control consoles, and the other instruments are built into the seat or its side consoles. The cockpit consists of a seat and four monitor panels - front, top, left, and right.
#GUNDAM COCKPIT CROSSHAIR MANUAL#
The diagram is based on the latter-model Zeon cockpit used in Gundam 0080 (and the manual as a whole uses the Gelgoog Jaeger as its example mobile suit). Even in combat, most of the mobile suit's functions are computer-controlled as a result, even a grade-schooler could operate it.Ī diagram calls out the major controls in the mobile suit cockpit. The sticks control the flight direction, and also house the trigger and weapon selector, while the foot pedals provide throttle and braking functions. Most of the mobile suit's critical functions are handled by the control sticks and foot pedals. Although there's a dedicated rear-view display, you'll get an automatic verbal warning if an enemy gets behind you, and you can then use the controls on the left console to put the rear-view image up on the main monitor.
Thanks to Minovsky interference, you can only get visuals over short distances after that, it's voice only. The communications monitor on the top console is used to communicate with the deck crew and operators aboard your carrier ship. (You're warned not to forget to protect the torso, where you're actually sitting.) The images on the four main monitors are derived from the 12 cameras distributed around the mobile suit's body, to present the external world as if you were sitting in its head. Paraphrased from "Entertainment Bible 1: MS Encylopedia, One Year War Edition"Īn introduction establishes that, yes, this is the cockpit of the Gelgoog Jaeger.
