    Bought two fans and combined one of them with a light ring. Here's what happened IMG_20201130_174630.jpg IMG_20201130_174720.jpg IMG_20201128_191343.jpg IMG_20201128_191357.jpg IMG_20201128_191429.jpg IMG_20201128_192046.jpg IMG_20201130_184036.jpg IMG_20201130_184133.jpg IMG_20201130_185947.jpg IMG_20201130_200816.jpg IMG_20201130_215322.jpg IMG_20201130_220152.jpg IMG_20201130_220203.jpg IMG_20201130_220636.jpg

    And this is how it looks on the car. Left airflow with speedometer ready! Will soon be the same on the right with a tachometer:)

    Tomorrow I will mount the second power supply unit and continue testing.
    Here are some more photos

    For small vibrations (road surface, engine shaking, curbs) I want to put vibration speakers as in the photo. Will increase the dead zone for motors so that they only work out medium and large movements. So I think it will be easier for the motors to work and the sensations will be more believable.

    sway 30%, surge 30%, pitch 60%

    Most of all I liked the "pitch", the feeling of driving uphill and downhill. Especially when jumping, there is a swing, cool!

    good idea!
    beware to choose a bass shaker (its aim is to give vibrations) and not an exciter (its aim is to produce sounds by vibrating a surface).

    I think you can put a low-pass filter on vibrodynamics. Vibration speakers reproducing sound will give not just vibration, but vibration with a changing tone of the engine roar, for example

    Who will use the BLD-300B driver here is a list of errors. Very useful information. The driver indicates errors with a red LED or you can output an error signal via the ALM pin
