    These Simtoools Axis Setup are not final. I have not yet installed the motors. This test was done just on motors by themselves.

    Assetto Corsa seemed to work very well. However, I am not sure about dirt rally. It seemed a little jerky.

    Hi everyone
    Igot the sim up and running. Took me some time to get simtools axis and tuning center right. It finally worked with some Krazy number with some smoothing. I tried it on booth AC and Dirt Rally.

    Did not connect the traction loss motor yet. Having problems. It moves with the slightest steering movement.

    Finally got things running well. All of my tunning problems were solved after I changed the regional settings in control panel to English United States.

    Ran the sim for some time and the feeling is great. I have
    Surge 45
    Sway 30
    Heave 15
    Pitch 10

    The feeling is great using Assetto Corsa.
    However, the traction loss motor broke the gears. Opened it and it turned out to be plastic. Ordered a Chinese motor 12v 200w with RV40 gearbox 1:25 ratio. Cost 280 dollars including shipping.

    I am using Chinese power supply 12 v 30 amp for traction loss motor.
    Using one 12v 60 ampere for both seat mover motors. Had no problems and no shutdowns.
    Using arduino uno r3 and Chinese moto monster clone boards with no issues at all. Also I have mounted the screen to the frame so it moves with the whole frame.

    The chinese DC motor with the RV040 GearBox turned out to be very strong and suitable for the traction loss.

    [QUOTE = "Zubidat, post: 146406, membro: 28327"] Ciao, sono nuovo per i simulatori di corse e sono interessato a crearne uno da zero. La mia intenzione è quella di costruire un sedile con due motori DC. Forse anche aggiungere la perdita di trazione all'intero telaio. Ho ordinato Arduino uno v3 e Moto Monster Boards e potrebbe volerci circa un mese prima che arrivino. Sto pensando di utilizzare motovibratori DC 24V 350W ZY1016. Qualcuno può dirmi se stanno bene. [/ QUOTE]
    ciao, per favore puoi aiutarmi a configurare 2 attuatori ex frexgp?

    I am not seeing any pictures. Do you have any photos to upload? What sim model did you decide to build?
