    Welcome @Troy, nice to see another fellow Aussie join the motion sim fold.

    You will find the community here gives freely give of their time and expertise.

    A 2DOF is a great place to start and can be extended later to include things like traction loss and heave, have a look at existing member builds, that may help you refine your own project: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/forums/diy-motion-simulator-projects.22/

    You will find plenty to get you started in the FAQs, from design software, dimension of sims, to PSUs, pots, motors, JRKs, Arduinos and Motor Monsters and more: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/

    If something sounds odd then look it up in the glossary: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/glossary-of-acronyms-and-names.66/

    When you are ready please start your own project thread here: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/forums/diy-motion-simulator-projects.22/

    Good luck with your project.

    Welcome @djritzzo.

    You can duel post in your native language but please also include and English translation via Google Translate.

    We have bi-lingual speakers from many different language groups so if Google Translate really messes it up they can help clarify what was intended.

    When you are ready please start your own project thread here and share some more details about your 3DOF project: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/forums/diy-motion-simulator-projects.22/

    I look forward to following your progress.

    Hello everyone, I just joined. I don't have nor am currently planning to build a motion simulator as they are out of my price range, but I do have a bass transducer I want to use with the xsimulator software. I want to start getting into sim racing now that I have an Oculus rift and most of my wheel parts should be here at the end of the week (I hope!).

    Some members would.

    You can duel post in Chinese as long as you include an English translation.
