    Looking great Stanley. I'm just a bit ahead cause I got the seat frame started.. but still need to figure out how to make it both Racing and Flying.. I dont have a HOTAS or Rudder setup, going to order these in January.. But We're in the same boat to speak.. even though were not building 'boats'.. hahah good job it's fun.. it take some time.. but it's worth every bit of effort.. DMAX

    I'm doing the same.. It works on my other 3dof rig.. so should be good.. If not, you could try something else.. but the front pivot barely moves.. good to go till it doesnt work!
