    Motion platform, 6DOF
    Since last year, I have come into contact with simulated car racing and simulated flight. They have satisfied my desire to be a car driver or pilot. I am immersed in it almost every day. I want to make my own Boeing 738 simulation module. He has already started it. Until one day I saw the production of knaufinantor's project. Showroom - Compact AC Servo 6DOF Rotary Stewart platform (xsimulator.net)
    I think my simulation module is perfectly combined with his project. It's very real. I have also come into contact with this forum. Everyone is very good. I bought the servo motor and ordered the PCB board, all tests are normal, the axis test is normal, but it is abnormal when connecting the game, it will not respond with the game. Not long ago, I found out that Dirk Gently is also doing the same project, which is very powerful. Showroom - 6DOF Motion Platform á la Knaufinator (xsimulator.net)
    The administrator said that he asked me to rewrite my question here. I did as I did and came here to discuss the problem.

    I tried a lot of methods, the axis test is normal, but still after connecting the game, the servo motor will appear irregular twitch, soon stop. It won't work with the game, and I've tried the advice you gave me, but it still doesn't work. It sometimes pops up error messages, as if to deny me access. Is this a computer problem? I think I should try another computer.I will send the test video later.[​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    First try switching your Windows settings to English Local, as there is a known language bug: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/simtools-language-setting-bug-change-to-english-local.233/

    Everything needs to work as expected in output Testing before messing with any plugins.

    You can grab a copy of the SimTools manual here, keep it handy for reference: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/rtfm-start-with-the-official-simtools-documentation.117/

    Please hit the Details button of the error message and then copy and paste the full error message here.

    Hello, you're right. It's really because the computer is not English. After I change everything, it will output data normally when I restart the computer. But I tried to change the language to English once, and it didn't succeed, so I ruled out this method until I tried it again.

    The servo motor test was successful, which can't be separated from noorbeast's and knaufinantor's help. The problem that bothered me for many days has been solved, and I will go on to the next step. I'm very excited. Because of my work, I often go on business. I always carry my servo motor with me. It's packed in my suitcase. My suitcase is 15kg, ha ha. Now I buy servo motor and reducer, it will arrive in ten days. I'm also looking forward to other accessories.

    Hahaha, I usually carry around the smaller 60ST for tests, less heavy:

    The single servo motor test is perfect！

    My servo motor and gearbox arrived, and I made a simple shelf.[​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    When I was going to test six servo motors together, it had a problem and the hall switch didn't seem to work. At this time, I suddenly found that it seems that my 5V-12V booster module is not powerful enough. I've bought a 15 Watt boost module and hope it's the problem.[​IMG]

    Hello, flyingonion, I am also a Chinese simulation lover, can I have your wechat, I am just starting/designing, or figuring out what do I need to get started. :)
