    Nice movement :thumbs

    I myself, would probably ease up on the braking force - but this is only a personal preference what I usually do, like to feel more of acceleration but a bit less of braking force, not hard. It's something to play with in the Tuning Center, after capturing min/max values, I'm writing out different values of Min/Max for Surge force to balance braking and acceleration. You just need to find out which value represent braking and which acceleration (Min or Max) and test it out..

    Here it is for Project Cars in example, the bigger the number you put - the less force you will feel. The "Max" value in pCars was for braking so I've put a bigger number for less feeling..

    And in Dirt3 for example the "Min" value represented braking force so I've put bigger number there..

    Each game has it's own values, each car, each airplane.. It's all about personal taste and a lot of testing, testing, testing :sos :grin

    The effects are not too strong? Personally I put the values +3 and -5 with value 8 for smoothing but we do not have the same facility :confused:

    (Les effets ne sont pas trop fort ? Personnellement j'ai mis les valeurs +3 et -5 avec la valeur 8 pour le smoothing mais nous n'avons pas la même installation)

    he did say its personal taste when it comes to tuning centre numbers and how the profile feels

    Thank you prodige, that's exactly what I did, increase the minimum value for me and feel less braking compared to the acceleration.
    Leaedman Although the effects are too strong, I exaggerate to see the felt.


    "Merci prodige, c'est exactement ce que j'ai fait ,augmenter la valeur min pour moi et moins ressentir le freinage par rapport a l’accélération.
    @leaedman bien sur les effets sont trop fort,j'ai exagérer pour voir le ressenti."

    I love your building zigzag, very impressive.

    Where did you find the fans for the motors, I'm thinking about getting some for mine

    They are Smoka NIDEC 24V truck wiper motors (link in the tuto in my signature)

    Hi Thank you, the motors are wiper motors heavyweight, I recovered they had a lot of hours, his must be the same as the smolka give link racingmat.
