Can someone lead me to put some life into my fly simulation rig?

    Hallo sim friends, I built myself a nice flysimulator rig; but I find it very difficult to put life into it :-(
    What I have done so far:
    I laminate a little plane cockpit and put it on a self built motion rig;
    I used 4 servo motors for
    One for pitch
    One for jaw
    One for roll and
    One for heave
    To perform these movements I do not need to combine two motors - each of these movements has its own motor;
    I connected these servo drivers to a motion4sim card, and each axes works very well
    In its test Funktion;
    But now I do not know how to continue; can somebody lead me what to do next?

    I would love to use xplane as my source;
    Do I need flypt or some other Programm now?
    Do I need to define a motion rig with my configuration? And how can I learn this? IMG_2933.jpeg IMG_1177.jpeg IMG_2933.jpeg IMG_1177.jpeg IMG_1178.jpeg Hh IMG_1179.jpeg IMG_1180.jpeg

    Not really! The rig collection in Flypt does not include a rig simulator to mine;
    And there is no + rig button, or some explanation how to make a rig.
