    I am a newbie, I have purchased the simtools and race07 game plugins, I use RC_Sim_Model ino, and wired correctly, running the game, but I have no reaction to the motor, I don't know where the problem is, ask for help, thank you

    As per the forum rules you need to include English, particularly when seeking assistance, you can use Google Translate, as I have done for you: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/forum-rules.9527/

    Regarding your question The difference from SimTools 1.3 to SimTools 2 in setup is that in the Interface Settings instead of axis defined like this <Axis1> it now has designate grouping for a or b in SimTools 2 for each axis assignment, like this <Axis1a>

    So in your case it should be R<Axis1a>~L<Axis2a>

    Hi,
    I use a 2dof simulator with 2 scn5 and I want to use in addition 2 servo rc, for testing a harness tensioner.
    The arduino code works, the servo move when I test Ard IDE with RCModelDebugMode.ino, but nothing in Simtools with RCModelSimToolsMode.ino .
    Is it possible to addition servo rc and scn ?
    Thanks

    You can use @eaorobbie's code for servos, in SimTools 2 there is a slight Interface change, from this R<Axis1>~L<Axis2>~ to this R<Axis1a>~L<Axis2a>~

    It works :)
    Do you think it's possible to modify easily the RCModelSimToolsMode code so the servo (My servo rc have 180° rotation) position in Simtools has to be at 0° and not to 90° ?
    If I use only for surge effect (and just brake effect) with 90° initialization , the servo uses half of capacity with brake effect .

    @Pramuuditha Kumara,
    Your interface output line is wrong.
    You have "~R<Axis1a>~L<Axis2a>~" and it suppost to be "R<Axis1a>~L<Axis2a>~"
    You have a extra leading "~"

    Take care,
    yobuddy

    you have to configure the default profile in axis assignments so you can test output with sliders

    Hello folks ! I did everything needed for the miniature plateform. I used the right script and everything but my servos don’t reply instantaneously.. :/
    Do you know what’s the problem ???

    @Kenza,
    Can you post some screenshots of your settings?
    Maybe to much smoothing is applied?
    SimTools v2.4 has a much better smoothing filter btw (almost ready for release i think).
    Take care,

    I had a similar issue when I started using my RC 6DOF platform as well. Figured out that Malwarebytes software was the guilty one. I just turn it off any time I use the platfom now.

    Best to start your own build thread and specify exactly what motors you plan to use.
