    Hi,

    I present my DIY G-Seat simulator.

    It based on G-Seat system. The purpose is to generate G-force on pilote with almost no movement.
    The bucket seat is slice in 3 parts. The backrest is a the only fixed part, seat and the top of the seat (behind the shoulder) are mobile parts.

    Bottom of seat transcribe longitudinal G-force, top of the seat combine longitudinal/lateral G-force.

    The system is actuated by 3 DC motors of 150 W. The electronic part is composed by Aduino Uno with 3 H-bridges (MotoMonsterShield).

    Can you please give a little more detail about your rig in action, and perhaps a video, along with information about the hardware used.
