    Hi All -

    I just stumbled onto this forum in search of help with a new (to me) setup.

    I recently acquired a SectorX 6DOF system that had never been assembled. It was acquired new and was still sitting mostly unboxed. Best I can tell, the initial buyer was given insufficient instructions, got frustrated and decided to sell and then misled me into thinking I would be receiving full instructions. So, I contacted SectorX and after being told they would guide me through the process, provided very little assistance and then refused to respond further. So, here I am.

    So, is anyone able offer any guidance? I'm in the Los Angeles area and would be happy to pay for someone's time. Otherwise, I enjoy DIY projects and am happy to continue plugging along if someone can help me out.

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, that is correct. I have PT Actuators and those exact controllers.

    Thank you for the manual. Unfortunately, my problem is more basic. I have an unassembled rig and have no assembly instructions. So, I am hoping someone can help with the actual buildout.

    The issue of access to basic assembly instructions, which for most things are shipped with the commercial product, resides at the level of the commercial provider.

    I see the SectorX website boasts a 'Personal Concierge' being available to owners around the clock to help with any issue, so time to start bashing on their door again!
