    Hello, good morning.

    I am Carlos from www.totalspanishsimulator.com.

    We are a company of Sim racing Cockpits, accessories of high quality. Our products are around the world, and our friends of ISR, made a review of our new brake mod G27(hydraulic system)

    We are thinking to develop a motion system for our cockpits (and others) with Arduino and software simtools.

    We think that this software has many possibilities.

    We want to do one High End motion systems with the highest quality materials (aluminium profiles, digital servos, high End motor drivers).

    Do you think is possible some programmer, could help us in programming the Arduino controller to convert the simtools data to pulse/direction of our digital servos?

    We have in this moment a customer than want buy 4 motion systems. And it's only the beginning.

    We are thinking in 2dof and 4dof . We can send you the renders and photos, and all technical information/features of hardware, servos, drivers, etc...

    We looking forward your answer.

    Thank you very much.

    The Team of Total Spanish Simulator.

    (the programmers interested, can contact with us by PM)

    I made this little project with Ard. Duemilanove, 2 Tm1638, 2 hobby servos , and VBNET 11 months ago . Asking and testing alone (Many hours programming in VBNET to get data of Iracing, because i didn't know the simtools.... :( .



    Now with simtools is great!!! You can get all data from all games/simulators. ;)

    Looks nice Cx
    So tell all your friends about SimTools:)

    Most often its not the result, its they way how to reach something in life so your time was not spent for nothing and you learned a lot of new programming and hardware related things:)

    Do you like to share your project?
    I like to see which LCD are you using for the RPM and shift lights, the firmware and wiring to the arduino. I bet there is more interest by the community.

    You can post here your project:
    http://www.xsimulator.net/community/forums/diy-peripherals.32/

    Please also take care that you are posting in the correct forums next time.

    Thank you.

    Thanks again RaceRay.

    And you're right...i've learned a lot with my project. I think always we need to take the positive things of our actions.

    That's ok, i will post the info of LCD in these section.

    Cheers

    Of course!!

    Think if you open the topic up and shared the info you might get a better response.
    Programming an Ard is not that hard, its just a little clumsy as in you will need to use interrupts to keep the system moving fast enough to keep up with the servos.

    It's better enable the interruptis or disable them?

    i have seen this in arduino website
