    SimTools

    1. Version: 2.1
    2. Game Plugin: DCS plugin dated 10/25/17 by DOF Reality
    3. Settings (Relevant ones): followed Ravens and SteveH Export.lua advice (DCS forums)
    4. SimTools Licence type: Pro

    The issue I am having is the motion rig has these small (step like) jerky motion when making smooth motion on the flight stick (both pitch and roll). I've tried changing the axis force percentages. Noorbeast thinks it may be a plugin issue, but not sure how to fix since I was provided a DCS plugin from DOF Reality.

    Here is a video of the behavior



    This is my main question, but while posting, can someone explain how Sway, Surge, Heave translate to the flight sim world of motion?

    OK, I will try the sim with DCS 1.5, see if I have the same issue.

    Great :thumbs

    If the problem persists then please post pictures of all of your settings and a video that shows the rig movement and game screen at the same time.
