    I figured this would be a great time to start documenting my plans to create a Custom National Instruments myRIO SimTools Interface. The inital plan will support 2DOF, but hopefully I can get it to support a 6DOF.

    I snagged one of these a while back while in school and I write LabVIEW code on a daily basis. I personally think it would be fun to create this interface and share with everyone. I know I can easily use a Arduino, but where is the fun in that! :)

    I hopefully should be getting my motor and other things soon. Once I get everything I will start to document everything. If anyone has any suggestions or ideas, let me know!
