    Hi Pointer

    YEAH!!! :thbup: An excellent information panel, though it is a little big for me. Really our works is directed in the same direction. You Know this simulator.

    APEX_sc830_04.jpg http://www.simcraft.com

    I think a version of our simulator with the electrical actuators type SCN5 and tree axis may be possible well. I think this is a better simulator sistem that frex GP, because with our system generates more G forces that the type Frex.

    :cheers:

    Hi


    I have already finished the job with the G25. I call it now G29 :D :D :D with 12 buttons and SLI board. I have also passed the wire through the inside of the wheel.

    Best regards.

    hi el-txus, i want to make a similar simulator like yours but with scn5 actuators.just wondering if i should put the 3rd axis or not?
    i presume i should put it close to the ground, but it will take time.
    Do you think that scn5 are much better then the pneumatic version you have used?

    Hi srdjan

    yes, I think that an electric system is better than the pneumatic system, offering better response in the movements. Especially in rapid response as would be bumpy.3 axis is perfect.

    Hi again,
    I am preparing the order of scn5 ones so i just need one more info.
    I can use the scn5 actuators to move the X and Y axis like rnr and your type wright.
    As i have seen from the posts i just need to select the x.y,z option on the profiler, wright?
    What i wanted to say is that i prefer your simulator style much more then the frex type.
    And i must tell you that yours has given me inspiration to build my own.
    Money is not an obstacle so i will make one similar to yours but with scn5 actuators.
    What do you think?

    Hi

    yes but allways using a corretc snc5 to the load that you want to move

    As i have seen from the posts i just need to select the x.y,z option on the profiler, wright?

    Sorry, but I am no specialist in SCN5, I think if you ask in the post of SCN5 can tell you better.

    And i must tell you that yours has given me inspiration to build my own.
    Money is not an obstacle so i will make one similar to yours but with scn5 actuators.
    What do you think?

    I hope he gets to enjoy the construction of the simulator as much as I have done

    ok,
    thank you for the response, keep up with the good work.
    Once again congratulations for the simulator.
    I am going to send the photos when i finish the building.
    Do you have maybe some dimensions of yours so i could make a good proportion.
    I was thinking to put some movable weight under the seat because I am going to use it with my son(big weight difference between two of us) and in order to have a good balance this weight could be moving underneath.
    Regards,
    Srdjan

    Hey Pointer,

    Is that NetKar Pro in your last picture of your new wheel? I thought nobody had motion code for it yet? Do you run it without motion?

    Yeah, that's it, Great his physics, too bad that they have contract with the BRD simulation.
    Does not control any display, or moving simulator.... :(
    If I will have a little time, i try with yoda to set it up to move my sim.
    Is worth his price a half it now to sept 1, and promising opportunities are it.
    Try that, you brake with blocking wheels two times, and then you will feel that the tires were angular in the FFB :lol:

    NetKarPro Tracks
    Netkar (not pro, lower quality) tracks
    Unfortunately just a few pleyers on the servers, shame to neglect, a good simulator like this.

    Any luck with this? I have to say, it's been a long time since I played with Netkar, but I've just recently downloaded it to one of our sims. I remember now what great simulation it was. Just needs more content :)

    :no:
    There is not a change.
    But there is a hope possibly, maybe the business policy changing...
    If, for the Leo Bodnar SLI-M outgauge allows it, then from there already only one step :yes:

    Hmmm... I think it might be a different story for motion system. This is precisely what BRD (the parent company) are trying to avoid. I wait with great anticipation though as we use the SLI-M as well.

    You can always map it yourself using the tutorials in the Wiki.

    I looked over those, I think they might be a little over my head. That being said, I might try to tackle them at a later date when I am not drowning in work......

    Hi

    I create a last video for my simultator. Now I study the new proyect. I believe this to be my first simulator has been very good, although many people on this forum thinks otherwise. I do not understand because my project has been treated so differently from the others, but no matter, does not affect me in my work, just taught me to be more independent and get things for my own work.

    I hope you like my next project a little more.
