    Hi,
    Just got my hans on at least 6 x 3phase motors with drives and worm gear. Planning on using some of them on my rig, but i will sell the others. Ive build three simulators now, and you cant get any better motors for a rig. I had a 80cm leaver on the output shaft, and it lifted 90kg without any problems. I think the input/output is 1500 / 132 rpm. Its so easy to power the drives with 110/230v from the outlet and just connect the reverse/fwd and speed signals from the arduino or whatever.

    https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/124777183612 is the link to the motor with specs, the drive is matched with the motor.

    They are nearly £9,000 each !

    You should be able to buy suitable motors that have a faster speed for less than 1k each

    Why do you need more speed? Over 1m vertical movement in 1 sec :) yeah, way too expencive, but i got them all for free when we upgade some machines from those motors to pneumatics at my work.

    For free, that will be a real find !

    I found that large actuation distances dont work well on a driving sim, more suited to flight sims

    Is this for a driving or a flight sim ?

    Gonna be a sim for Dirt 2 this time :) 2 seater with co-pilot yeah.. was thinking about that.. not planning to use the full distance. A jump and a landing will probably be a lot of movement..

    I'm running my 800mm actuators on 80% for heave in Assetto, with the Tuning Centre set to +- 20. The dynamic range this gives without any clipping is great. Feels much more realistic then I have had in the past on other sims with smaller actuators. As always, just my opinion.

    does the +/- 20 mean 20mm or 20% ?

    Nice! how long does it take to travel 80cm with the actuators ?

    My actuators can move up to 500mm/sec.

    It's my tuning centre setting for AC Ie. +/-20. For most sims with shorter actuators you would normally have to set this allot less for heave to get the required response.
