    Da ist wohl jemand recht überzeugt von seiner Konstruktion.
    Für mich ist das eher ein Gerät, um Senioren-Fitnessübungen auszuführen, dass man gleichzeitig auch an den FS anschließen kann ;)

    Am Ende bejaht er noch die Frage der Reporterin, ob er glaubt, dass seine Konstruktion die Spielewelt revolutionieren (breakthrough for the gaming industry) wird.

    Nunja, ich glaube es nicht ;)

    Und was er in der Garage stehen hat, erinnert mich an unlängst gesehenes.

    Haha! I was talked to that guy thru email a few months ago, and he was convinced that he had the most perfect motion simulator... until he saw my motorized version... :lol:

    And he sell it for a $3645 which is a bargain (at least he tells so)
    The real cost for it is just $600, he revealed that to me and he makes a profit of $3000!!! Geez!!!

    But one of his earlier models is quite similar to yours. Even the name ;)

    The interviewer asks him if his sim is fully operateted via the game, and he says yes ;)
    But it seems perfect to do some fitness workout ;)

    Exactly, it its moved by hand!!!! How this can simulate real forces? It has a normal stick mounted below the chair that reads the pitch bank. So the only interface it has to the computer is a simple joystick!!!

    Yeah its the same because he used the same joyrider plans I also used and can be found here: http://www.acesim.com

    He just made deal with the original creator of joyrider (Hardlock) to market it under a different name. So he redesigned using bended exaust metal pipes and named his design Dreamflyer... :lol:

    But it just don't worth it to give the $3600 for just a hand moved toy!!! Be serious!!!!
