    Already started building my sim. The design is however a bit different. Inspired by the yaw vr..i have taken a step forward.

    Trying to make a drawing of it in 3d..can anyone suggest a free lite software i could get to work on.

    One psu i ordered on line was received today. Now i m going to test it. Its a 12v 360watt psu. I dont know whether that will suffice.. Meanwhile i m looking at e bike motors with gear box for the pitch &roll

    Cheers

    Are your asking about potential 3D open source modelling software options?

    As an aside, what hardware options may be applicable largely depends on far more detailed objectives, be they performance or options based.

    Fusion360 is maybe the most often used 3d software in the market and sufficient for most uses.
