    There are commercial versions available, like (ckas for example), but they cost more money.

    If you are on a budget then (unfortunately) for now DIY is the way...
    Also I think it's actually fun to build a simulator, you will learn a lot and it's worth the effort.

    @CalSim Thanks, I've got these cheap servos from ebay:
    £1.29, free shipping!
    Operating Speed (4.8V no load): 0.12sec/60 degrees
    Stall Torque : 1.2kg / 42.3oz(4.8V);1.6 kg / 56.4oz (6.0V)
    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/400762702702?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

    I'll be getting the controller soon, at the moment I'm deciding between getting laser cut Plexiglas or 3d printing the platform.

    Hi,
    Can you you'd be sharing an axis configuration file. I am curious how it is done. the mine is not at all the same.

    Vulvas sorry for not answering earlier.
    The axis assignment is the public, handed it to me and then retouched Historyker my taste but that and makes the movements very well, which can vary is the direction of the engines by way of connection but no more.

    Thank, zigzag49.
    The setting is the same as there are published only change something in the front motors turns on curves, and yaw for the extra 1.

    Now I do not have it operating, for lack of space.
    I'm sorry.

    Why we almost use monstersheild to drive motor ? It's voltage is too low！ 12v motor which has high power，such as 500w，is hard to get。
    why not use 220v drive ？if we use 220v drive, we can use more power easily.
    So can anyone introduce a 220v drive to me?
