    Hi,

    I discovered this awesome site about 8 months ago.

    Since then I started building my own project.

    First I started with a 2DOF wipermotor simulator.

    Here you find a picture

    8739

    Then I moved to 3 DOF with added continuous rotation to simuate cornering and drifting

    Here is the picture

    8740

    In this case the constuction is more complicated because I had to put everything on board (PC, DC supply, Sabertooth 2x12, VM140, bass shaker, monitor etc...)

    I will try to upload a video on youtube.

    Ciao

    Valerio

    First of all I want to express my admiration for all of you, is simply amazing what do you do here, really a do not have enough words to express my self.

    I have several questions ( I am very sorry for my ignorance on the field):

    Do you have to program the VM110 K8055 or it already came pre-programmed from the factory?
    Is out there some motor driver system for 3 motors (for 3 dof simulator)?...

    I was inspired for you guys and I want to build a simulator cockpit with 3 DOF to my son and the kids of my neighborhood.

    Thank you all in advance.

    P.D.: Sorry for my bad English.

    Ciao Valerio, il progetto è semplice ed efficace, fatto veramente bene!
    complimenti, avevo un'idea simile quando ho iniziato il mio sim ... poi ho riscontrato diverse difficoltà, specie sui pesi in gioco, ti va di postare ulteriori dettagli? te ne sarei grato,
