    @ho123 , welcome to the forum, have a dig around as there are a few 6 DOF builds going currently, especially with an upcoming code from @eaorobbie .
    Back to the 2nd video, you do realise that video is not yours, unless you are full motion dynamics. Unless of course you are simply using the video as a demonstration of what you are going to build.
    Cheers.

    That is no worse than the one that I came up with, anything is a start. Keep up the good work, I look forward to seeing what you come up with :)
