    Nice setup!

    Is that harness tensioner DIY or something you purchased?

    I built the harness tensioner myself

    1 x Arduino Uno for G-Seat and harness tensioner
    1 x 6 volt transformer
    2 x Servo "40kg"
    2 x metal angles with rivets attached to the seat
    and some cable tie

    Thank you! I just found my next project to add to my T1000 2 dof.

    I might bounce some questions off you if you don't mind.

    Looks great, would you mind sharing the simtools and arduino procedure for the harnas tensioner?
    Als do you have links to the parts?

    Thanks a lot !

    is integrated with the harnas tensioner

    On simtools axis 5b, the harnas tensioner is addressed

    Thanks a lot for sharing this, Torsten!
    I already have a paddle-based g-seat, but I recently discovered that I need some more pressure points, and the pneumatic bladders seem to be much easier to mount than additional paddles. Great idea!
    (Besides I have lots of servos lying around after I switched to bowden cable driven paddles.)

    Are you still satisfied with this approach?
