    Hello after a while disconnected from everything for work problems and others I have taken up the simulator and the one I have is 1 2dof and I want to transform it into 3dof ...
    I have the arduino and the monster board.
    I have another unused monster plate, do you know of any manual to add the 3 motor?
    thanks

    thanks I couldn't find the thread ..
    to the arduino I will have to install the smc3.ino and wire the motors.
    I have to think how to put the third motor that I imagine will mount the rear on a rail.
    is that there are few designs in 3dof
    I think not?

    Do you 3dof with heave, or do you mean 2dof + traction loss, as they are quite different design wise? The latter is particularly well suited to a race sim.

    [QUOTE = "noorbeast, post: 196837, member: 10786"] ¿Ustedes 3dof con heave, o quieren decir 2dof + pérdida de tracción, ya que son muy diferentes en cuanto al diseño? Este último es particularmente adecuado para un simulador de carrera. [/ QUOTE]
    hello I didn't know there was a difference ..
    I want to do a 2dof + traction loss.
    I am doing smc 3 and I have made a wiring map which I think is fine.
    I have seen another option that you gave to another user and that is to use 2 arduino 1 for each interface
