    I am taking a motion simulator concept I saw from the chinese market and want to make my own, and much better with safety.

    I will post design of the frame. If any can point me on the moving parts, please let me know, if you can assist with the project, willing to reward anyone who helps

    OK I been doing alot of research in this forum today, and now know what I was doing wrong. I must do a sketch first, also my concern with this is weight distribution meaning, I have to make it so that a user does not tilt the motion stand. I guess I will be doing the first real 3DOF motion stand for VR

    I would like to do something like this but instead of a seat I will make the middle part with standing bracket and leather pillow padding to strap myself to for a motion stand simulator. any ideas on the power of the motor should be?
