    This is the original car body before and now after with the new panel in it as a home cockpit.
    It weighs a bit so it will be an interesting exercise making the platform to support it!

    Yes it will, I'd say you will need some BIG motors to swing it or even bigger actuators :D

    450 watt 24 volt geared motors, that should do it, weight will all be counter balanced with springs. Moved the last sim (slightly lighter) with wiper motors and steering racks.
    Oatley Electronics sell them.
