    Wow, I really like that electronic's box. Can you edit the posts with more information on what you are using? Is that a Kangaroo 24v?

    Looks great so far!

    EDIT: I reread your posts and noticed that the info was already there. :)

    Thank you, Yes indeed I used 12-volt power HP server 48A, then prepared to be put in series and get 24V,

    If you are interested I can explain the changes to make.

    I have done the same myself, using the same server PSUs. But a short tutorial in your thread (please do not start a new one) would help others. Great idea :)

    Salut !

    Beau projet ! Super idée de maintenir le volant que d'un seul coté. Pour ma part, les tubes metalliques sont soudé de chaque coté du siège, j'ai donc les jambes dans un "U" sous le volant et parfois ça me gène un peu. Le volant ne bouge pas ?

    L’électronique est propre comme ça:thumbs !

    Merci pour vos compliments, le volant ne bouge pas j'ai choisi cette option justement pour faciliter le passage ;)

    Thank you for your compliments, the steering wheel does not move I chose this option just to facilitate the transition ;)

    Hello to all the time pass quickly now 2 years that I built my simulator Either the age of my little girl, I have papou during the last years without too much to be able to play with my machine.
    I just bought pcars2 and with the update of simtool v2 I am blocked it would require a license key DIY I made a request several days ago I have not received anything so far is it normal that will be long?
    Here I thank you I would put videos surely thereafter, waiting for some photos all fresh! :)
