    Hi,
    can anyone give me a recommendation for a useful rig setting for my setup. None of the choices in FlyPT really fits my setup. Maybe I can use the 6DOF marked in the picture, but I'm not sure how it works with axis 7 in my setup.
    Regards and thanks in advance

    Hi @Dietmar your rig is very similar to mine. Try using the PT Actuator profile as a base.

    EDIT: Sorry about that, I clicked post reply before actually finishing my thought....old age I guess. (Dagnabit! I did that twice! I meant to click advanced and clicked save changes.....[the author got lost in incoherent mumbling for a while here])

    Anyway, you can start with the profile that you have and edit it for your functions. That is what I did before a Thanos PT Actuator profile was added.

    For example I used use the four corner, 4 DoF with TL + 3DoF (4 linear actuators) and then add more rigs for the other motors. You just have to move where the motors are and what their angles/ranges are. Specifically I used the 1DoF with single linear actuator, etc.

    But I do think they one that you are using can be edited for your use.

    Thank you for the answer. That sounds good, I'll give it a try.
