    Hello,

    I have a ProSimu T1000 3DOF and fancy getting a OSW Mige 130st-m15015 which weighs 11.5 kilgrams (25,3 pounds).
    I currently run a Thrustmaster TX which weighs approx. 4 kg, so Mige is an additional 7,5 kg.

    Any T1000 >= 3DOF basically works on lever/fulcrum-model. Driver sits directly behind (almost on) the fulcrum and the two actuators are at the long other end of the lever. This picture illustrates it somewhat:

    I myself weigh little short of 80 kg.
    So the two things I wonder about:

    1. Is the Wheelbase-arm stable enough? I get the impression it is. I rattled it quit some and didn't feel any flex. But maybe someone has real world experience with running a OSW on the prosimu?

    2. What impact will the additional 7,5 kgs have on the motion of the rig? Actuators are the standard SCN6 which are specified to lift 40kg each.

    Any opionion and experiences welcome!

    @Onaflyer : I see you have an OSW mounted on your T1000. When you have a minute to share some details about the mounting I'd be really grateful. Looks like out-of-the-box the T1000 can not really accommodate an OSW?!

    I did drill a couple holes and reinforced the wheel deck.
