    Hello everyone

    As the title suggests, I'm currently thinking about a G seat air project.

    I just bought a logitech challenge x pack with g923 to play on PC in VR with a meta quest 3.
    Playseat® Challenge X

    I would really like to improve immersion with a G air seat, tensioner

    seat belt, buttkicker and why not wind simulator.


    I'm new to electronics and Arduino programming, but I know how to follow instructions and understand a wiring diagram.


    I think I will be inspired by the projects of
    @Banfy, @xxpelle et @Jumping Coin
    especially

    But where can I find the Arduino code and wiring diagram?


    If @Banfy can share this information with me that would be great. I'm looking for the arduino code as well as the wiring diagram to achieve the same configuration as this:

    I'm not interested in the G-HEAD part


    See you soon for the rest

    thank you for your reply
    I have already consulted the different links but being a beginner with arduino I am not sure about the timing of the motor servos

    @Volker's production is great too, I hadn't seen it. I love the case

    Sorry. The case of @xxpelle
    I thought it was the same realization

    Hello everyone
    After my research, I think I found the information I needed to start this project.
    First of all, I'm thinking about the electronics and programming part because I'm a complete novice.

    I go on a g air seat using 7 bladder.
    I'm thinking of following the creation of @xxpelle https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...g-seat-ideal-for-beginners.13089/#post-201464

    On the other hand, I can't figure out which servo activates which bladder.

    According to information from xxpelle:
    Sway = 1 - 2 - 4 - 5
    Surge = 3 - 4 - 5 - 6.1 - 6.2
    Heave = 3 - 6.1 - 6.2
    and the arduino code provided, I deduced that:

    Aduino uno R3 connection
    servo 1 = pin D4 = bladder 2 -5
    servo 2 = pin D5 = bladder 1 -4
    servo 3 = pin D6 = bladder 3
    servo 4 = pin D7 = bladder 6.1 -6.2

    xxpelle could you confirm for me please?

    I am also looking for the list of parts to order.

    See you soon for the rest
