    I've already got a 5DOF that I built. I'm seriously considering adding one of these simexperience GS-5 seats with the added belt tensioner. I do drive, but mostly I fly. Anyone try one of these things with a flight simulator? They claim DCS support is coming down the road, but x-plane is supported now.

    With the belt tensioner, it's about 105 lbs total added to the 5dof which puts me pretty close to the actuator limits. I'm currently moving 380 lbs total with the 4 SCN-6 actuators.

    Not much in the way of opinions out there on these things.
