Amicos 3DOF from 3DPrinter Parts

Lol. Yeah. Not sure if its my bad or Fanatec cheap solders or something.. But in Fanatecs defense the wire was rubbing a bit on my old rigs monitors post.. When the FFB was high or a crash thst thing shook... Maybe even more than the new motion rig... It happened a few times before my upgrades but thought I secured it good with Zip ties... I.did do a race tonight with No issues!!

Back to this... lol My solution..

Its 4 of the 2 inch actuators, 4 Black hinges, a two way switch, wire terminal and wiring.. I cut them from Extrusion Rail and used the rail hardware to mount.. I cut them a little shorter than the powered up Neutral position. With the corner cut off at 45 degrees they can squeeze under the frame.. Felt pads on top..

Now it ill only drop 1/4 inch or so when powered off.. I had 2 actuators already. Ordered two more to finish the Mod..

Cool.. Thanks!

Here is a closer image of the Stuff.. I had to grind the holes of the 1.5 inch hinges to fit the 40mm V channel.

Been Messing around with the Tuning center Settings but not convinced I have them perfect.. Or even close. Manually Entering, Roll + - 23, Pitch + - 19, Heave + - 20, Yaw + - 120, Sway + - 20, Surge + - 25 and Extra 1 (TL) at + - 9



I was trying to lower the Auto Capture Numbers to hopefully feel a little more in certain areas.. But feel I lost more in others..
Is it just better to do a Start Capture till all the Fields change and do a save? Then lower Traction Loss by Half?
Is it better to to a capture on clean laps or running curbs, Bumps and crashing to get Higher Values?

These are with some crashes but not all fields Filled.. Should Numbers bee in the 100's? Yaw is showing 179 and sway 126... Normal?



Having Fun Though.

AI Suggests...

1. Reset: Click "Reset" in the Tuning Center.
   
   
2. The Hot Lap: Click "Start Capture." Drive 2 laps of your favorite track/car combo at 100% pace. Clip a few curbs, but do not crash.
   
   
3. Stop & Save: Click "Stop Capture" and then "Save New Settings."
   
   
4. The "20% Rule": Usually, the captured numbers are still a bit "safe." If the motion feels too weak, manually lower the Max/Min numbers by about 20%.
   
   • Example: If Sway captured at 20, try setting it to 16.
     
5. Traction Loss (Extra1): You mentioned halving it—that's a common tactic. If you want TL to be "snappy" so you can catch a slide, it usually needs a lower number than the other forces. If it captured at 10, try 5 or 6.
   

4. Addressing your "100s" Question
Should Numbers be in the 100's? Yaw is showing 179 and sway 126... Normal?

No. For a standard car in iRacing, Sway and Surge usually land between 10 and 30. Seeing 126 suggests the "Capture" was running while you were spinning out or the game sent a weird telemetry spike. Those high numbers will make your rig feel "dead."

Its been Wrong on many things so figured I would ask the Pros.. (Noorbeast) lol

After 1.5 laps at Nordschleife fast and bumping curbs this is all I got for Min / Max; Roll 17.51, Pitch 9.37, Heave 4.92, Yaw 179.9, Sway 4.66, Surge 3.02, Extra 1 (Traction Loss) 4.81



All wack..

Damn.. I do think something was backwards and now I messed it all up.. HAHA! I will have to trouble shoot later as its way too shaky/loud in my apartment at 10:30 PM...

But inside your link says "Both boxes will be either checked or unchecked for surge and pitch, while only one will be checked for sway and the opposite one will be checked for roll." Mine was not like that... I made it like that but something still might be backwards! Its loud and shaky!!

The Slider for Sway and roll in output testing do the same thing on the rig even though the Axis assignments are opposite Dir.

My brain will understand it one of these days.... But off to sleep and a long day of work... Thanks for the links Boss!!!
