    very thorough job, but if I can afford I would recommend you to insert the tie rods for horizontal movement motor tl von links.jpg

    If I need to install the bar to block the rotation and some modification. I'm also going to put traction loss

    Is it necessary to put the two bars to block the rotation? Or is it enough with only one?

    Once the cables have already been placed in their respective pins, I came up with a penerle heat shrink so they can be firmer and there is no danger that one of them coming out, the same as I did with the + and - signs of 5v

    One of the first test, it works, it makes me deny a little but walks ... I only need to modify the structure because the center of the movement I do not have it well under the armchair, because previously to move the whole structure and was a lot of weight. .. these days it is modified and it will be added more% of movement because it is short.

    Not having the pivot well in the center of the armchair, I am loading weight (kg) to the engines and raise temperature

    Nice progress, However I highly doubt those wiper's will be able to deal with that TL lever length you chose. I suggest smaller to start off with.

    A little test of the modification to the structure, everything works perfect. Just need to configure a few more axes and profiles so that everything is fine and run the traction loss that at the moment does not work for me

    What game are you playing ? Does it explicitly state it has TL in the plugin ?

    I have been testing with Corsican, dirt rally, richar burns rally and LFS and none walks me.
    Now install the new version 2.01 of simtool and nothing works for me.
    Something else I have I assure you
    I was loading the plugins to SimTools_PluginUpdater and it tells me that it was installed correctly.
    Luiego in game manager and game engine I did not include the previously installed plugins
