    Hello,

    I'm new and after the implementation of my bass shaker with Simhub I read a lot, which also led me to the XSimulator Forum, for example, which has now decided to build an actuator race seat myself.
    The basic construction of my cheap race seat is complete, connected with actuators and electronics installed so far and now it goes to the program such as the implementation with Simtools because it is the software which, in my opinion, has the best implementation as well as availability and up-to-dateness in all racing simulations, I want this one right away Walk away.
    Thanks to the programmers you have done a really brilliant job here and every race fan should have their own simulator today which is possible thanks to Simtools and the Xsimulator Forum!!!

    Also a few pictures, please don't complain about my confusing confusion in electronics - first everything should work, then I can still make it nice somehow someday ;o)

    Parts List:
    -Ikea children's swing chair was available
    -actuators https://www.ebay.de/itm/Buy-1-Get-1...2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=707-127634-2357-0
    -1x Arduino Nano
    -2x HBridge L298n
    -2x old GDR knobs
    -old Pc power pack to power the actuators

    Thx @noorbeast and first thread replyer.
    I was able to solve a lot of things myself from your threads and your answers to problems, so that I can now also get the function and movement of the actuators and use your Arduino code

    This proves that you can have fun on a small budget when you know how to get to work
