    THIS is my project:


    Is a Smart For two real car, My intention is to change the stock shock absorbers (all 4) for pneumatic pistons. I am new to this, I do not have any experience in setting up simulators, I studied electronics, I have worked as an electrician, and I have knowledge in computer programming, I also know how to solder iron. I need your help to start and finish this project "with dignity." Thank you very much, I hope for your help!
    I live in Girona (Spain).

    I'm already in contact with him via private messages, and he's been a great help. I'll try not to repeat the same questions on the forum and will use the search function instead. Thank you very much.

    It is great to have member experience and support, but at the same time may I remind @sim2go and yourself that everyone benefits from sharing and hence the Forum Rules preclude PMs to do so: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/forum-rules.9527/

    Hello,
    I have seen several options, and I think the most logical would be to make a 2 DOF, but with 4 motors (or 4 actuators), one on each wheel, only doing the ROLL and PITCH movement.
    The 4 wheels are going to touch the ground and move, I want to change the original suspension of the car, for the 4 actuators, I have no idea how to start, or what type of motors to use, the car does not have an engine, I am going to disassemble the entire mechanical part, to remove weight, even so, it can weigh quite a bit... Any suggestions on where to start? High power electric motors? or pneumatic??
