Are YOU a NEW MEMBER? Introduce HERE!

Hi All, im a new member from NSW Australia. Im about half way through my second generation simulator build with my son and im starting to explore movement options. Thing is, our project is a little different from most. It involves the whole car. Unfortunately, this limits my options with respect to movement somewhat. Trying to move something with around 500kg per corner at a reasonable speed will be a bit challenging..... Not sure if I should be looking at linear actuators or maybe hydraulics, but it also has to operate on an off-grid solar system (energy efficient) as I don't have mains power where I live. So here I am....

I have all the pictures for a complete build thread so far. I have steering and most of the pedals sorted so they use the real car components and have the right feel. I have most of the gearbox side of things worked out as well (although that isnt quite finished yet).

I will start posting everything up soon for those that are intrigued.

cheers

Will do. Thanks for the heads up

Hello,

I leave in france and want to start a new rig for flight sims. I see a lot of interesting projects and try now to choose my platform.

I see this is really active, and really thank you in advance for your support !

all the best.

@winch20010 welcome! indeed, the forum is very active and you'll find more attractive ideas than time to make them!!
From which region are you from?

I leave close to Annecy.

doing flight sims for many years and now just got the hp reverb g2 who is really not bad, i nees to move forward with a new dimension of flight

Hi! New here; first post.

Me: old guy; technologies oriented; retired CFI; into WWI air combat sims since 1997; presently flying IL2-Flying Circus and P3D; recently received a Pro-Flight PUMA helicopter simulator, YAW VR motion platform, and SimX S-5 actuators and 3DOF electronics: not operational yet but hopefully soon.

My goal with the YAW is to get it to fly IL2-Flying Circus. I see there's a plug-in for IL2 Forgotten Battles and I'm hoping FC will also work with that. If not, I'd like to see if we can somehow make a Flying Circus plug-in happen.

My goal with the SimXperience components is a prototype 3-axis motion simulator for IL2 - Flying Circus and P3D. (Sim Commander does not presently work with IL2 but I'm told they are working on it.)

All contributions graciously and gratefully accepted!

VBR,

Pat

Hello everyone !
Adidyan from Lyon, France here.
I got interested in simulators a few months back, and I started to build my own simple 2DOF simulator. I will soon do a post about it in the forum
For a 1st sim rig, I was not looking for the most realistic simulator possible, but more like a fun and cheap (as much as possible) game.
There are a lot of valuable information in this community that helped me, so, thanks

Hey Everyone,

Michael from Vienna here , after build my SFX100 , i wann upgrade this to an 6DOF so i guess i am here on the
right place

thanks to be here and also got some help

regards Michael

Hi, I'm making an SFX-100 build using profiles from AliExpress. I have posted my rig which is a work in progress. I will post more updates in the thread as I finish the project. Thank you.

Hello, my name is Günther and I come from Austria. I am interested in the flight simulators Xplane and FS2020 and I definitely fly with VR. For that I have to build a 3D or 6D motion platform.

good morning everyone my name is Roberto and I am a new user

Hello I am from Austria and my Interesting is Flightsimulator in VR and i have a little bit
knowledge in electronic and my interess is 2d 3d and 6d.
