    May be of interest to @Pit and others with a similar simulator - video looks reasonably resent. Seems like they may be trying to reduce the size and cost requirements of those big sims. Nice sim, although I still like my hexapod :).

    Don't worry ... Hexapode is still the most competitive design so far ...

    It's pleasant to see that "my" design is adapted to the industry. I never knew that such a simulator exists, thank you @SeatTime for information.

    Very interesting: while the surge and sway acceleration speed is the same between mine and the Ansible Motion simulator, the Ansible Motion rig also uses yaw for a better "response" of the forces. The rotation axis is under the seat of the driver and makes sense. Earlier I reported that Traction Loss is contra productive in combination with the surge and sway tables because it eliminates the forces of the tables, obviously this does not happen with the Ansible Motion rig. Due to this perception one day (in future) I will remove TL and add yaw.
