    Good choice @Milton Amaya - Having built both versions, I much prefer the speed / resolution of a seat mover.

    I built a full frame for flight sims and if I was ONLY playing flight sims, I'd still have a foot mount.
    For racing sims, you simply can't go past a shoulder mount seat mover.
    It's violent compared to my old foot mount. I had to delete all my old profile are start again to tone it down!

    Very impressive build there. A lot less cost than a genuine CXC for sure. Looks like it moves the same if not better. Those motors really perform well. Was it JRKS you are using for control boards?

    Wow that is impressive! Your setup is pretty much identical to what I want to do with my next sim. I was going to wait til next winter to start on it but with the new sim tools coming and dirt rally out I'm not sure I can wait. Very nice sim you have.

    The recommended price for those is $1,800 each in Australia http://www.sony.com.au/product/kd-49x8300c :eek:. Makes my ordered Oculus CV1 look cheap ..I'm sure they look great though.
