    I've been sim racing on my static rig for about 4 years now, and have decided I want to give building a motion platform a try. I've acquired 2 Pride E660 wheelchair motors (DRVMOTR1112) and just wondering if anyone has had any experience with using these. As they are 24v motors, I'd also like to know the best PSU to get for each of these. I'm planning on combining a lot of the tips I've read from various posts here.
    Thanks in advance!
