    I had built 2-dof rigs (different configuration)... and went to this 6-dof which has traction lost and sway motion... it just awesome!

    Have already an 3DOF with Surge and 2xTL

    But also i have an complete Fanatec SetUp laying around without any use and a second Gaming PC, i will have a look on your files and will think about the costs :)


    I saw that you safed it as sldprt, i think it would be easier for everyone else when you safe it as step, 3mf or something, so every programm will accept it.

    Very impressive ! One of the best 6 dof I’ve ever seen! Only one question: checking your axis assignment I just want to understand if exemple you want more pitch, you just decrease the % of other axis and increase that one? How you calculate the total % ? It should not be less or equal to 100%? Thanks

    Thank you!
    Yes you are correct, just increase the % number up to 100% max. You just adjust it to your liking. No specific reasoning, but more your own preference.

    Btw, I end up more focused on the 'Sensitivity', which gives me the most simulation feeling.

    Perfect! But 100% per axis or the sum of total axis? I see your configuration total axis is more than 100%. Thanks

    Hi @prophet.id a question about your harmonic drives .Are they plug and play or did you need to grease them?

    Hello can you tell me how to setup the as5600?
    I2c communication or analog 5v?

    Hi I thing your surge axis needs to be reversed as the surge looks like it's going backwards when you accelerate

    Also worth checking sway (same direction steering) as I made the same mistake when first tuning mine
    I might be wrong it's hard to tell but just thought I'd mention it nice rig though

    I use the analog 5v.

    I believe you are correct. I have been playing with the tuning, and the current video is mostly out of date.
