    Nothing too fancy, but I really like the response and the kind of movements this sim has.

    It has plenty of range but in my view the motion profile is very poor, particularly with heave. There sim is not accurately reflecting the onscreen movements.

    d-box?. I would be impressed if mine could move like that, but i think with a bit of tweaking and the help from the guys on this forum that isnt to far away.

    It is not that the sim would not be capable hardware wise, it is just a poor motion profile.

    Poor profile, but super responsive!:) Also I like the configuration, and the d-box I’ d see is not that fast.
    @crammy I’m looking forward for your setup, I think it will be really good!, just like this plus 2 more axes!
