    Have a look at existing member builds, that may help you refine your own project ideas, what motors you need depends somewhat on what design you use: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/forums/diy-motion-simulator-projects.22/

    You will find the FAQ section covers many detailed build related topics, including a section on traction loss: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/

    We have a glossary for all those acronyms we tend to use, which will help you decipher some descriptions: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/glossary-of-acronyms-and-names.66/

    Feel free to ask questions, the members here give freely of both their time and expertise.

    Good luck with your project.
