    Hi everyone :)

    Finally I have got my 2dof project mounted up..

    I have made the connection and got the motors moving in the Game engine software..

    In the attached picture you can see the presets.

    Is it correct that the orange marked "dir" is to invert (change direction) of the motor? (Nothing happens when I change it)

    Whether I go for surge or sway the motors goes oppesite?

    I would mean that when you move the surge bar in manuel mode the motors should both go either up and down.

    And in sway they gods opposite?

    So what am I doing wrong..

    I really hope to get it fixed soon as I almost can't wait to try it anymore :);)

    Thanks

    Regards Simon

    It is the combination of checked or unchecked DIR that determines how the motors move for the DOF. Uncheck one of the Sway Axis and test in the Output Testing tab to see what I mean.

    Start at 20% rather than 60% and do one axis at a time.
