    Good afternoon, hope you are well.

    My name is Mikael and I am based in the UK.

    I’ve seen your videos on YouTube in regards to simulators. I’ve built my own but I need assistance in finishing and wiring up the actuators.

    I am willing to pay for your service or if you do know anyone in the UK that can help assist I would be grateful as I’m struggling to find someone to help with my 6DOF.

    I will need help with connecting all equipment, actuators, connecting simulator to sim tools, steering wheel, and just wiring and configuring the whole machine as I have 0 experience. More than happy to pay anyone that can help.

    Kind regards

    Wow, that doesn't look like "0 experience" at all! At least, you've made the right decisions and bought industrial servos and a "ready to fly" controller. I personally have no experience with the Thanos controller but I think there should be a manual or tutorial about how to wire the controller and the servo drives.
