    Hi, Guys, new here. Sfx motion system installed 4 actuators. No e stop connected as awaiting its arrival. Actuators tested and fine off rig. Thanos amd pd6 latest firmware and settings as per manual. Software links to game. SRS works but the problem is the amount of actuator movement is really, really small. For example on braking even with all settings at maximum the rig only tips forward about 10mm if that. Only obvious thing is that though the controller setting say 50 they do not rise off Park when rig starts it only raises about 10mm. So how do I get actuators to center and then produce full range of movement, what have I got wrong? thanks in advance.
