This article discusses the historical analysis of the development of simulators applied to aviation. From the development with the application of the first necessity, at the beginning of the 20th century, to the nowadays technology. Today the technology is used in several fields, justifying the increasing business investment destined to the sector, such as training, recycling, development and entertainment. Its advantage, compared to the real model, is the lower cost and greater security. Some simulator mechanisms were studied in order to select one that meets practical usage demands, and, in the end, a mechanism design is presented, aiming at the future construction and study of the different systems of a simulator in practice.
