    Price on the website shows $4999? When does the special price of $4600 end?

    Thanks

    Did you upgrade or purchase the complete H6/P6? I am interested in that I have an H3 and am considering upgrading to the 6DOF using the P6 upgrade components.

    Thanks,

    Danny

    I bought the p6 with the downgrade parts to p3. I have assembled the p6 directly and I am storing away the extra metal frame parts that are used only for the p3

    Oh the above videos are using h3 motors? How different is p6?

    Also, can you send a video showing all the 6 axis movements using output testing in simtools game engine? I’d like to see the roll, pitch, sway, heave, yaw, and surge all separately please!

    So can you direct upgrade from a P2 to a P6? Thinking of picking up a P2 to see if a motion simulator is something I'll like then if so upgrade to the P6. But curious if I would have to go to a P3 then a P6 to upgrade.

    If you go to the dofreality website and scroll to the bottom of the page there is a chart that tells you what you can upgrade to from each model.

    I have changed the frame layout to have more of a f1 car style seating/pedal position :)

    I think the great thing of the 6 dof of dofreality is that there is no need of balancing the seat at all , as instead it was needed for the 3 dof

    Have you tried it? How does it feel compared to,the P3? Did you get the H6 or the P6? Good to know that you dont have to balance it.

    Hi! I have got the p6 with also the frame parts to downgrade to p3 if I wish . I only mounted the p6 so I can't compare to the p3 since I have never used a p3 and I did not mount the p3. We will see the feedback from p3 users that upgraded to p6.

    I tried the p6 with both layout frames (f1 style frame and non f1 style frame) . There is no balance of the seat as far as I saw. I changed the frame's setting and I was good to go.

    Hey Marco, can you please record a video of your p6 doing all the 6 directions of motion? you can do this by going to simtools engine->output testing. You can then move the sliders of the pitch, roll, sway, heave, surge, yaw. Can you record it and show us please? oh also, try dirt rally in vr using your rig, bet it would be amazing
