    Saying something does not work is not enough information, you need to provide a bit more detail about what you have and have not done.

    Where are the pots?

    What are the motors and do they need ground isolation?

    Anatolie, I created a build thread for you and moved your posts as they are not on topic in the previous thread. You will be more likely to get the help that you need here. Please edit the first post with more information on what you plan with this build.

    Good luck and I look forward to seeing what you come up with. :thumbs

    I think PWMmax - 28 not enough for move.

    Hi @anatolie did you change the line in the arduino sketch to MODE 2 before uploading it to your arduino ?

    I find that the fixings of the engines are too weak

    You should be able to fix your potentiometers with a reduction to gain in precision and not to destroy them because of the couplings

    Are the sections of electric wires not just right?

    Your question does not belong in this thread, you can either start your own build thread or post questions in a new thread here: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/forums/diy-motion-simulator-building-q-a-faq.31/

    The Admins @Historiker or @RaceRay can help move this for you.

    With respect to your question the hardware and control boards need to first be set up correctly. You would need to tell members about your hardware for them to be able to assist.

    Next you need to interface your hardware and to do so check out the SimTools documentation can be here: https://www.xsimulator.net/simtools-complete-documentation/

    Once SimTools has been configured correctly to interface with your hardware then you need to go through the steps to create a motion profile for each of your games: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/steps-to-create-a-motion-profile.228/

    As I mentioned earlier further information is needed.

    You need to read the documentation and tell members what hardware you have, any code it is running and post screenshots of any and all configuration settings.
