    Hi all,
    Just bought a 32" curved monitor from HP.

    I mounted the monitor to the wood structure using the support shipped with the monitor.

    It wobbles a bit but nothing hard, I don't know if this wobbling can ruin the monitor with time or if the support breaks off the monitor and the monitor lands on the floor.

    How are you mounting your large monitors?

    - Do you use the shipped monitor mount?
    - Do you use a standard VESA monitor arm mounted to a fixed part of the rig? Do you use a wall mount or a desk mount?
    - Do you use a static mount not connected to the rig?

    Thanks for all your help.

    People do mount monitors to motion rigs, but monitors are not made for that sort of use.

    Hi noorbeast,
    Thanks for your reply.
    From what I can remember, you're running your sim using VR glasses, right?
    Just out of curiosity, what model are you using?

    Thanks,
    LP
