Issues with 2016 sketchup

@speedy can you assist me picking out the motors I will need?

https://www.motiondynamics.com.au/dayton-800w-1hp-36v-dc-planetary-gear-motor-500-rpm.html I found this company and it seems they have great motors but I want to make sure I have speed and lifting power

@marc79 ... Where do you want to use them ?

I want to use them on 3DOF motion standing platform @speedy

Any photo I can preview ?
have you looked at my old simulator with 3-phase AC motors ?
link is in signature aria ...

@speedy I had paid someone on freelancer to work on the sketchup on it and CAD version because my brother in law works with metals, so he can built the frame for me. I should have the design finished in acouple of day, he will do the math also so I know what motor Ill need to get.

Good luck then ... my advice is to use 3-phase AC motors and VFD's

ac motors can you tell me what specs, they will be used with VR @speedy

VR = virtual reality ?

edit : sorry I need to go to work or I'll be late

Yup VR Glasses Oculus Rift @speedy

@marc79 ... I guess VR has no restrictions for what kind of motion simulation rig you're using thus motors

reason why I ask is because I heard that if you do not match speed from heave, turns and twists you can get motion sick if its not sync with the simulated movements
@speedy

@marc79 ... Now I see ... first : the speed of heave, Roll, ... > is a mechanical issue you should take care of it at the design stage regarding putting the minimum load to the motor while maintaining the required final speed "No more, No less" ... the final speed is the real Heave speed that will lift "the full load" up ... and should be calculated backward regarding using reduction gears , pulleys , ... > then you can find the motor speed and power specs required .

Second : matching the visual movements of the game to the simulated movements is actually depends on the controller you're using to get a sync simulated motion ... that's where you can get a motion sick if not well matched or tuned .

let's say you have a slow "Not too slow" well tuned simulated motion to the game output ... then you'll get slow ups and downs and twists and turns exactly at the same time that is visually exists ... so you can't ever tell if there is a speed difference .

On the other hand ... I have a very very fast Surge & Sway X-Y Flatbed simulator for racing cars that uses 2 screwball axis mounted directly to the output shafts of 2 1/4HP 3-phase motors ... It can literally hit my head to the steering wheel if I hit the wall in the game or something else goes wrong and that is a very annoying speed which is more than 30cm/sec. per axis ...

the best Ideal speed is around 20cm/sec. or less .

you need to know your motors specs by the mechanical design you have .
