    2DOF
    Like many, have played driving and flying games in the past but nothing beats a sim rig for stability and comfort.

    Bought a cheap Dardoo sim rig from Amazon. Made the front speaker support where the monitor normally goes for surround sound.

    Picked up a PS VR2 a couple months ago and have enjoyed the experience.

    Went to an indoor go-cart track a few weeks ago and they had professional grade 2DoF driving sims. Got looking at the construction, a quick Google and found this lovely site.

    Happen to see @Captain Jack's build using the same sim frame. So, all credit to you Captain Jack for the concept. And the motivation credit goes to @Halloween2go after watching your videos.

    The tubing and universal joint were purchased from Amazon. Wheelchair motors should arrive any day from Ebay.

    Welding of the frame is almost complete, just need to make the motor brackets and hall effect brackets. I work for a laser company and a handheld welding system with wire feed.

    Appreciate this site and all the great info!
