    I show my simulator with very good times happened.
    The cockpit is built with aluminum to give it strength and at the same time possibility of changing the height of the steering wheel, pedals, gear shift, etc. The movement scn6 performs 2 actuators connected to the PC via USB and powered by a 24v.
    The software that drives it is x-sim with which I am not convinced and I will be if I can change that will improve the sensations.
    The other components are currently:
    Thrustmaster T300 Ferrari alcantara steering wheel with pedals T3PA edition. (Very pleased with the steering wheel but with pfffff pedals)
    Gearshift Thrustmaster TH8

    Thanks for sharing your simulator, it looks really nice.

    There is a SCN section in the FAQs for reference: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/scn5-scn6.2/category

    There are some technical spec and capability differences between Simtools and Xsim: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/whats-the-difference-between-simtools-and-x-sim.1/

    SimTools is very light on resources and responsive. Set up is generally relatively easy. Developing motion profiles takes a little time and practice but the steps are pretty generic: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/steps-to-create-a-motion-profile.228/

    I guess the best thing about SimTools is the very active membership at Xsimulator.net, the members here give freely of both their time and expertise.

    I look forward to seeing a future video of your rig in action using SimTools.
