yeah you would need to do it in C++ or a similar language. Maya does not provide any interactivity e.g if I move my mouse the view will move accordingly. as Blinn said you would need to model in maya and then import into your program


The physics of the ship would not be easy at all. Realisim would be of the utmost importance and that could take months or years to get right. If you have little experience in Maya and little or no experience in C++ I dont think that completing this project would be at all feasible (sorry to be negative but it's a really complex project believe me!)
