    Hello everyone,

    I present my project 3dof:

    Its composition:
    3 Motor-reducer 24V 350w
    2 power supply 24v 1000w
    2 sabertooth 2x32
    1 arduino genino micro
    and all other components of the simukit kit

    20954020_1920254274880428_6241093613252574939_n.jpg

    My chassis will consist of:
    Square tube 30x30x3
    Square tube 40x40x4
    Rectangular tube 100x50x4

    I put some pictures of my project in 3d:

    Nice progress, very good welding skills. On the other hand as far as I can see the weight of all components could be an issue, just keep this in mind of your further progress.

    Thank you very much, yes, it's my job :) yes I realized and I will modify my chassis, the steering wheel and pedal support will be fixed. It will be a good weight gain, I think. It seems that the sensations come better also like that. The engines support about 170 pounds, I think.

    Hello everyone, I have made good progress since the last time. I finished all the manufacture of the frame (finally I will make a seat mover). Here are some pictures of the advancement.

    Hi Nitros54 ! Your sim looks very strong ! You did it like a pro ! Why did you finally choose to make a seat mover instead of a full moving simulator ? Are you affraid that the structure will be too heavy and the motors not enough strong ? I'm thinking about buying the same motors actually to make a full mobile.

    Ok thank you Nitros54. And I think the construction is easier too. I have another question about this kit, I seen 3 springs but I don't see them on your drawing, I think they help the motors to hold the weight, are you going to use them ? and how ?

    Thank you very much, Yes but at the beginning I wanted to make a convertible, but too much complication to do so I price the choice of the seat mover

    Hi,

    Paint the mobile base finish, this afternoon I would probably test the simulator, I would make a small video.

    Hello everyone, I would like to know if with the license is simtools V2.0 we have an automatic update to the V2.2 or if it is necessary to re-apply for a license to have it?

    No you do not need to re-apply for a license when updating.
