    Hi RP39, put that system with air chambers to reduce the load on the engines

    Fixed axis assignments for Heave and Surge. For the other checks I will have to wait to mount the motors in the structure once completed.

    After cutting the lower platform, I mounted the motors with metal "L" brackets, a little "delicate" but to test they are just fine.

    Once the engines and engine levers were mounted, I cut the upper platform and mounted "L" -shaped metal plates to fix the tie rods

    5_posizione corretta tiranti.jpg After the first tests I realized that the tie rods mounted in that way were not going well and therefore I modified the arrangement of the metal plates and reassembled everything.

    Now all that remains is to try to find the correct setups of the axes with Simtools so that, as soon as I can find the material, I assemble the official version of the rig.

    After lunch I prepare the engine keys because they are made of aluminum and are too soft and slip with the loaded weight.

    Finished motor keys, I cut a template for the motors on a piece of acrylic on the CNC and tomorrow I start drilling the motor plates.
