    My Motion Simulator:
    2DOF, DC motor, Arduino, JRK, Motion platform
    OK so
    Testing went well with the mock up of my 2 dof balance rig ,finally got simtools and dcs world doing what it should,of course I am sure there will be a new set of issues to get through but for now all is well.

    Finally got around to welding up my rig as 1 piece,as it originally was held together with nuts and bols in 2 halfs.
    Also made the seat a solid mount and moved the seat movers to the pedal box which worked out really well,a good 8 inches of adjustment.

    Spent today building it up,will add the steering wheel and gear change then can find the balance point and fit the universal joint to the base and start to mount the motors and electronics for testing next week.
    Been about 4 /5 weeks up to this point,should all be finished hopefully in another week or so 20230506_134326.jpg 20230506_134335.jpg 20230506_134326.jpg 20230506_134307.jpg 20230506_134255.jpg 20230506_134318.jpg 20230423_085627.jpg 20230422_173731.jpg
