    Den Wellenadapter kann man im gelösten Zustand stufenlos auf der Alustange drehen. Ausrichten, festziehen, fertig ;D

    No way it looks like Frex... Its WAY, WAY, WAY better, big time, than Frex movement!
    You missed the point.

    Cheers,

    Sorry no insult intended. What I mean is LENGTH of movement. More stroke.

    More freedom of movement, less force for lateral movements applied to the seat.

    Hey egoexpress. I really like your steering wheel mod. Fantastic idea!
    I too always thought that the wheel is a bit of a weakpoint when it comes to ppl getting in and out of the sim.
    I think i will build something similar for the pedals too (but standing up from the floor). And I'm also thinking of building a linkage system for the gears.
    Has anybody done something like that for the gears yet?
    If not I will let you know when i have figured something out...

    Regards
    Christian

    But there is a weakpoint still, unfortunatly.
    The internal G25 plastic endstops...
    But I wont work further on that. It is ok for me.
    Beside that issue it feels great now :thbup:

    Morning,
    I was looking at your wiper motors with Race07 video.
    I wanted to ask you which simulator is better for you because you also did a simulator with scn5 actuators.

    I saw your video of the scn5 simulator. Which is better for you?
