    If i just add 2x 50W Aura under the seat. Will it have good effect on flight sim? If i only use sound card output signal for the source of Aura.
    Will it have good effect on Flight Sim?

    2x 50W Aura transducers are a good start and you will feel things like engine vibration and the 'thunk' of wheels retracting.

    Keep in mind you can start there and if you like the effect add more transducers later.

    SimVibe doesn't support flight sims but there is another program that does support DCS called SimShaker http://dreamsimteam.blogspot.ru/p/downloads.html

    It only supports 2 transducers, a left and a right, I haven't used to personally but I have a friend who runs it. I will be giving it a go on my setup soon.

    If you are just using game audio then it is a bit more muddled but you should still get some of the bigger effects like engine and landing gear.

    2 Auras under the seat should be okay. You want to get them as close to the seat as you can because they are not very powerful. Ideally bolt them directly to the seat if it is fibreglass, if not then make a bracket right under the seat.

    SimShaker and SimVibe also not support my FSX/P3D~ I am planning to use normal Sound card output signal.
    And using Low Pass Filter to make my Shaker work. Just order 2x aura and 1x JBL 250W RMS subwoofer amp. board(disassemble from JBL RS10).
    What Hz should i set on the LPF setting?
