    In this thread I will be trying to introduce "Galapod" our commercial 3 DOF and 4 DOF motion simulator.
    Since I don't know where to start on the details I will rely on user feedback on how to proceed.
    Hope that it will be beneficial for all.

    Thanks for sharing the photos and having the courtesy to put your commercial simulator in the correct section, plus seeking community input on what else to share.

    Generally members are interested in details about construction, like specs on actuators, and what motion software is used and what games are supported.

    What members don't want is for the posting to be a defacto advertisement, keep in mind the audience here is DIY motion sim builders who are really interested in the nuts and bolts type aspects of pretty much all simulators.

    I did find your Facebook but the website link on it did not work.

    For the benefit of others here is a video I also found of the rig in action:

    I appreciate the time you put on researching us, we are bit slow on the internet side of things the website galapod.com is down at the moment but the site wont be of much use here because it will be mainly in Farsi and not English.
    I am aware that this is a DIY community, I have learnt a great deal from xsimulator and I think it's time to give back a little :) furthermore we have undergone many design modification and developments and though we have reached a stable product there is always room for more improvement and I am more than happy to share information on our product in order to check our designs and solutions.
