    Clipping mostly occurs when you have a axis that is using say 200% output (let's say 100% for Roll and 100% for Pitch).
    If rill was to use 100% of the axis and pitch needed to do anything, there would be no output for pitch as roll used it all already.
    I hope that makes sense buddy?
    Take care,

    Thank you, it all makes sense, I am just trying to understand how to detect clipping actually happens. I monitor Game Engine > Output Testing > Virtual Axis > AxisXa. I never see sliders reaching leftmost or rightmost position, so I take it clipping does not happen.

    Happy Holidays!

    C77A4294-D16E-45DA-8650-47203E77ABD8.jpeg I have 4 actuators like this( 4 Axis)

    I have a total of 125 ( I use only 5 DOF ) for each axis. Is it to much ?
    I saw some presets with the same system with 230 for each axis,

    You should start your own thread, and re-post your question on it.

    Hello,
    May I help me, please.
    I've substituted the PS4 with a PC Gaming, and I downloaded the last SIMTOOLS version.
    I bougth RFactor 2 and I've Live for Speed too.
    I don't success to obtain a good motion profile, I remember that I've max 120% for axis, I've a 3DOF playseat with n^3 wiper motors, an Arduino Uno and n^2 motormonster.
    For example, I observed that the power hole during gear shifting is not very evident even with sway 30% and surge 60% only, and if I increase the surge nothing changes.
    There is a base setup for this first game about values of sway, surge, pitch, roll, heave; while about traction loss I've in EXTRA 1 = 100%.
    Id like a starting setup which I can change the values about my preferences.
    Thanks
    Best Regards

    Check out these tips on how to refine a motion profile, initially configuring one axis at a time: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/steps-to-create-a-motion-profile.228/

    There are also other handy hints in the FAQs, once you have a good base profile: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/simtools-settings-tips-and-tricks.18/category

    Such as how to configure Min/Max Tuning Center values to simulate snappy gear changes: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/snappy-gear-change-motion.121/
