    Hi!

    I hope I'm writing in right area of the forum.

    My plan isn't to build motion sim yet, but I'm planning to build led based rev meter and 7 segment gear display for rFactor (and maybe RBR). I found out from wiki that it's possible to accomplish with x-sim software, but I don't know what kind of hardware do I need for that.

    I appreciate your help in finding right hardware for my first DIY sim project. I'm planning to build motion sim in future. If same hardware can be used in that purpose also, it'll be nice.

    Thanks for your help!

    If some finnish X-sim user reads this, I hope you'll answer me, so we can talk about this in finnish.

    I noticed from WIKI that it could be possible to build my plans with Tronic DIY AMC interface? Would it be wise to build that board if I'm gonna build a motion sim in future?
