    I expect it would be possible, depending on what T slot frame is chosen and that it is deep enough for the Qubic motion system to be mounted without protruding below.

    My suggestion would be to make direct contact with Qubic and verify mounted clearances when using their mounting bracket for the unit, which is listed as being 23.09cm total height, while also clarifying what aluminum profile is in the website pictures.

    From the pictures given the mounting brackets are just right angles bolting to the side it would not be hard to fabricate those for any desired height on a T slot framed rig.

    I am not sure why you would want to have an aluminum frame directly on a floor, without either a rubber mat or adjustable feet to prevent damage.

    I didn't say, I want to have an aluminum frame directly on a floor
    I already have a rubber mat ( PC chair with bass shaker and Buttkicker )

    Is it allowed to copy paste here something, what a guy from Qubic wrote ( e-mail )?
    Thank you.

    You could convey advice you have been given but not paste an actual email that has things like names and email addresses, as the latter attract spammers.

    Okay, the guy wrote

    "
    Let me answer your questions directly.
    Would removing the wheel and pedal frames affect the QS-H13 stability - no. Not at all. The H13 sits on the aluminum profile base underneath it, and that is what keeps everything rigid. The front cockpit section (wheel mount, pedal tray, monitor arm) is a completely separate structure that does not connect to the H13 in any way.
    Can you keep the wheelbase on the desk and pedals under the desk - yes. This is actually how seat movers are designed to work. Your body moves with the seat while the controls stay fixed. That relative movement between you and the wheel is what creates the sense of G-forces.
    One practical thing worth knowing since you also use your PC for Photoshop, video editing and other work: the QS-H13 does not have electronic brakes. It holds its seated position using the motors themselves, which means it needs to stay powered on while you are sitting in it - even when you are not racing. If you turn off the power, the seat will slowly settle under your body weight. The good news is that the power draw for just holding position is negligible, well under 1 EUR per month. But it does mean the H13 and QubicManager need to be running whenever you are using the seat, whether for sim racing or just working at your desk.
    Should you buy the P1X Pro for this - honestly, I would not. You would be paying for a full-size cockpit and only using the rear seat section. What you actually need is much simpler - a compact base frame made from a few pieces of 40x40 or 40x80 mm aluminum profile, roughly the footprint of the seat, holding the QS-H13 and the seat on top. That is it. The image you labeled "My ideal setup" is close to this concept - take away the front wheel and pedal section and what remains is essentially the base you need.
    Which profile to choose - this is the part that is hard to solve over email. The exact frame dimensions depend on the seat you pick (mounting pattern, width, weight), the sitting height you want relative to your 70 cm desk, and whether you plan to mount the QS-BT1 right away or add it later. Getting these wrong means rebuilding, and that is exactly the kind of frustration you want to avoid "

    You will end up pushing around your wheel and pedals when they are not connected to your seat.
