New member. Going to be building a 3dof sim soon. Wheelchair motors for power and will need all the help I can get with the electronics.

Good luck with your project.[/QUOTE]

hello and thank you for the welcome.
I have already ordered the 2 motors and 2 potentiometers plus the card to control the motors. As soon as I have the material I open my discussion to put photos and work progress.

Hello all!

Im Terje from Norway, I have know about this site for years, and have read a bit of the posts now and then. As I use more time on the SimRacing hobby, I figured out I might as well jump in the deep end, and build myself a motion platform. Also just turned 40, so I supposedly have to have some kind of life crises. And since I can’t afford a Porsche, and I know I would kill myself on a motorcycle so; here I am.

I am torn about what kind of system I want to build. I really like the new 6dof that’s Silent Chill have made. Or maybe I go for a 3dof chaise setup, with traction loss. I don’t have the biggest budget, but not the smallest either.

I know nothing about electric (i had physics at school so I know that bit), so I have to learn that. I can’t solder, so have to learn that, I know a bit coding, but not much, so have to learn about that, and so on. So I basically have to learn everything. Happily I’m a really keen learner. LOVE to learn new things.

Do I have confidence that I will make a working motion platform? No, but willing to give it a really hard try!

Hi there, my name is Michael. I'm passionate about additive manufacturing and CNC machining, I also have good skills in electronics. I was scouring the internet to find some info about how to build flying and driving simulators and I came through this forum. Thanks to the useful posts and resources shared, I learnt a lot of new things here, so thank you all for sharing your knowledge. I'm planning to build a motion simulators and share my experience with all of you (asking tons of questions!), hoping it might help further enthusiasts.

PS. I tried to open the world map to post my location but the link leads to a 404 page.

Best, Michael

hello everyone, about ten years ago i bought myself a logitech g25 playseat and steering wheel.

I mainly play on gran turismo, my pc is not powerful enough ...
and recently I got a canis motion simulator with a t300rs steering wheel.

Hello everyone!

I have been following this great forum long time and gathered sim parts couple years now. I just got my diy motion platform moving.

Soon I will start a thread about it.

Hi everyone, I’m Vincent, from Amsterdam the Netherlands. I’m mostly into sim racing, (Iracing, AC, ACC and automobilsta) and like to do this in VR. In my quest for ultimate immersion, I stumbled over this forum and decided to join.

Hello everyone, My name is Francis, I am French and I don't speak English very well, but I take my time ^^.

I signed up because I plan to make a flight simulator.

I know how to do some electronics, electricity, mechanics, but I don't have your experience. I will look at the forum, and if I do not find an answer, I will come to ask you questions.

I also have a 3D printer to make a small-scale prototype.

Thanks for the forum and see you soon.

Thank you @noorbeast

Thank you for the links, for the proto <3 and thanks for the glossary, it will help me ^^

I already opened my thread and started looking at the others

Hello,
I've been checking out this site on and off for years. Always wanted to build a sim but never had the time, money, or space or combination of. I really don't have the space right now. But' figured, I would build a working test model, using all the actual parts minus the frame and the motors.
Once i have all that working, ill see about getting it as compact as i can.

Far as my ability to build it, It will be a learning experience, but that's good since i Like learning new things. I'm pretty mechanical, been fabricating and working on cars since i was like 15, been repairing electronics well before that ( my first portable CD player, I fixed from broken ones i got from friends ) Self taught soldering, learned how to weld and braze in high school and a few lessons from actual welders. Plus I am in IT currently. So.....
Hopefully it goes well.
Any advice when i start putting this thing together will be appreciated!

ciao il mio nome è Johnnj Piccolo e vorrei creare una dinamica 3 gdl stazione a partire dalla mia statico. Ho visto alcune cose interessanti qui e vorrei prendere spunto e magari un po 'di aiuto.
