    My Motion Simulator:
    4DOF
    Hello all, I just received my D-Mover H4 two days ago and built it within an hour, firing up Simtools has been daunting yet after several hours of reading the guide multiple times and FAQs, I was able to get motion worked out. I am not sure why much of my settings are the way I have them, but last night I got the motion smoothed out and feeling incredible in DCS.

    I've yet to see anyone else with this unit, so guess I may be an early adopter. I have much to learn for settings and barely understand any of this.

    Is there anyone else here with this unit? Tips or suggestions for this setup?

    I bought this for flight sim purposes, focusing primarily on helicopters. I use DCS, MSFS and X-Plane, so sharing of tips, profiles or general flight sim knowledge for helicopters is much appreciated when it comes to Simtools.



    Playing around with various helos, it is evident the telemetry from the game to the motion rig varies. The Huey feels like a bucking bronco vs all else, granted I understand the difference in tech in most of the helicopters in game. I am having major difficulties understanding why the rig does what it does per various settings but from just fiddling around I have gotten everything to line up nearly perfectly with the movements seen in game so far.

    So my first question, and I've seen people ask about this over the years on Facebook groups, which now I can't find the posts, are:

    Game Limits - Max/Min: What does this translate directly to in game?
    FLT? Setting: Under Axis Assignments next to the percentage. what these settings actually translate too in game directly, I tried smoothing between 0% and 100% and it made the rig feel less smooth overall.

    So if there are any tips with breaking down understanding of things like I'm 5 years old that would be great. Most of the guides clearly explain things... but only if I understand what any of it meant or translated to in the first place. Plus mostly I am finding Simtools V2 guides. I am using V3.

    Thank you.
