    Ahh! I thought if on separate planes of motion (meaning sway and roll do ostensibly the same thing in the rig albeit opposite in direction) you add the forces but if not you think of them separately.

    I will try and shoot some video and share settings after playing around with this new understanding.

    Thanks NB!

    Well I was waiting to upload some video until
    I had time to edit somthing entertaining with the replay and sound overlayed etc but that won't likely happen until work slows down after the holidays. Here is some crap iPhone footage of my rig moving.


    Just want to say I am over the moon with how good this feels. It may not look like much but after taking noorbeasts (always listen to noorbeast fyi!) advice in set up and getting over the initial lack of roller coaster like range of motion and realizing that it's a very subtle game to trick the mind in VR I feel I'm at 140% of what my goals were and have some plans to add some wind effects and heave in the seat (like seat time).

    Also finally got my 330mm wheel and a 3D printer so expect some refinements and evolution to come.

    Thankfully, unfortunately here in Brazil these models are of poor quality. I just got a lot of maintenance! :)
