    Hello. After a long development and manufacture of actuators, I began to build a 6DOF platform. The manufacture of actuators is located:
    https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/2dof-3dof-4dof-6dof-homemade-actuator.13950/
    Started with the manufacture of actuator holders. I decided to do it myself, I think it will be more reliable.

    Hello. Made a platform. I haven’t started yet. I make an electric automation cabinet with drivers. If anyone has any comments, write, do not be shy. Since I am new to this business, any comments are also useful information for me.

    Full steel actuators... they won't break in a hurry :). Old tech, but still a very nicely built Stewart Platform :thumbs. Look forward to seeing it in action.

    Thanks for the answer. Do not break !!! Everything is done with a large margin of safety. The following I want to make completely stainless steel.

    Tell me please. Reinstalled Windows 10 Home, there was a problem. AASD15 does not communicate with the computer, while the COM port is active. The driver is installed correctly. The plugin is loaded into SimTools. In SimTools, the settings are correct. What is the problem? Help!

    Did it work before you re-installed Windows 10 ? Maybe you are now missing some required files?

    Well if it worked before, your obviously now missing something, maybe Net files which Simtools requires to work.

    Is .NET installed.

    Have you tried temporarily disabling any anti-virus and firewall, then do a clean install of SimTools.

    Please post pictures of all of your settings.

    Sorry, I don't have any other ideas, although obviously something has changed from your last installation of Windows to this. Good luck :thumbs.
