    12 volt car windshield motors don't have much power so my tip would be 24 volts.

    Interesting motor placement, how do they respond under load?

    What drivers and code are you using with your rig?

    good morning, the motors respond well but the chair must be in a well balanced angle because if you put all the weight of the body, the motor does not support all the weight, the drivers I'm using IBT-2 and the code I'm using the SMC 3 and the source is using a Silver Stone 750W model SST-ST75F-PT.

    When you get a free moment it would be great to see a video of your rig in action.

    See the motion tuning Tips in the FAQs, they will likely help you regulate your rig: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/steps-to-create-a-motion-profile.228/

    If you are still struggling others can make motion tuning suggestions if you post pictures of all of your settings and a video that shows the game screen and rig moving at the same time.

    Hi, is it a PC power supply that you use? I had problems with 2 power supplies lately and I would like to know your feelings
