    Hi @franccac

    Welcome!
    You can present your project in detail to get diy license and with a little activity in the forum get the coins for the plugin but if you are going to put a bass shaker is better the pro version, costs less than others that is only for the vibration and This one has everything (although the vibe is not finished yet)

    Hi @Javier Serrano

    Welcome!
    We will be attentive to your project

    Hi @NjMotion thanks, I will inform about the Vibe state.

    Hola @Javier Serrano , bienvenido, veo que eres novato como yo, aunque llevo medio año con los simuladores estoy probando Simtools para mejorar. A ver si los pocos españoles que hay por aqui nos ayudamos mutuamente y entramos de lleno en el mundillo. Saludos!!

    Hi all, I've been looking around here for quite a while and am finally making some progress on my rig. (It's holding itself up and works with the SMC3 utilities software.)

    I'm a mechanical engineer with an aversion to electronics, and this is my first experience with Arduino, etc. I wouldn't have gotten nearly this far without all the information on this website. Thanks to everybody that's shared troubleshooting information...turns out I've repeated a lot of mistakes that you guys have already made:)

    Hi,
    I'm looking for ideas for "wife friendly" 2dof or even 3dof carsim. I had G27 with playseat and sold it after I start living with my better half. Year ago I managed to get playseat challenge ( you can fold it and hide it from your wife/GF ) and TM T500RS w/ TM T8A Gearshifter in our house. I made rally-style handbreak from broomstick and MC rear brake switch. Now I want to make something impossible, simulator that I can hide, but I get some feeling also. I'm not trying to make it thinking it gives the best rally/racing experience of all time, I know I need to sacrifice some of that to make it slide under the bed or fold to closet. I've made few projects with arduino also.
    I live in Finland, native language is not english and I'm 27yo automation engineer working now as power network designer ( yes I know it's not automation ).

    Hello new menbre I am preparing to make me a simulator 2dof hoping on your help to realize it Thank you.

    Welcome @ludo22420

    You can duel language post as long as you also include an English translation.

    We have bi-lingual speakers from many different language groups so if Google Translate really messes it up they can help clarify what was intended.

    Have a look at existing member builds, that may help you refine your own project ideas: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/forums/diy-motion-simulator-projects.22/

    You will find plenty to get you started in the FAQs, from design software, dimension of sims, to PSUs, pots, motors, JRKs, Arduino code and Motor Monsters, plus heaps more: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/

    We have a glossary for all those acronyms we tend to use, which will help you decipher some descriptions: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/glossary-of-acronyms-and-names.66/

    Hi Folks!!

    as you can see... I am a new user of the community.

    I am writing from Argentina, and my idea is to start a 6DOF project for Flight simulation. I am Private Pilot and in my free time, I used to spend some hours in my home sim.

    Hope we can share experiences (I read a lot in the forum).

    See you soon with some updates of my project!

    Welcome @Emiliano Vega.

    I look forward to hearing more about your 6DOF project plans.

    If you are seeking build, hardware and software information to get you started, then look in the FAQs: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/

    There is a specific 6DOF section in the FAQs, which would be a good place to start: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/6dof.22/category

    We have a glossary for all those acronyms we tend to use, which will help you decipher some descriptions: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/glossary-of-acronyms-and-names.66/
