I thought it would be cool to be able to use the wii remote to control goggles so I knocked together a really simple glovepie script to do it. It replicates the pitch and roll of the remote to control the plane, + and - control speed and B fires. Please excuse the crappy video filmed on a mobile phone…

The script is VERY simple:

var.threshRoll = 10 in degrees
var.threshPitch = 20 in degrees

Key.Right = Wiimote1.Roll > var.threshRoll
Key.Left = Wiimote1.Roll < (-var.threshRoll)
Key.Down = Wiimote1.Pitch > var.threshPitch
Key.Up = Wiimote1.Pitch < (-var.threshPitch)
Space = Wiimote.B
z = Wiimote.Minus
a = Wiimote.Plus

I suggest using LiquidIce’s HOWTO: Use the Wii-Mote In Windows as your Mouse to get an idea of how the whole bluetooth + wii remote + glovepie things work.
