    Hi,
    I just got my 3dof platform (DOF Reality P3), plus I am very new at this.
    My question relates to the surge and sway motion for rFactor2.
    As I understand it for DOF Reality the different motion type are as follows:

    PITCH: Going up and down the slope --> Works great
    ROLL: The road is leading sideways --> Works great
    EXTRA 1: Traction loss --> Works great

    HEAVE: car bounces up and down --> Not Working (Although this might be normal, can someone confirm?)
    SWAY: G-Forces sideways --> Not Working ( ? )
    SURGE: Throttle (backward) and Brake (forward)--> Not Working ( ? )

    The sway and surge, for example, work great in Assetto Corsa.

    How do I get to feel the motion for the surge and sway in rFactor2?

    Thanks for your help
