    Hello everyone, I am new here. From Argentina I am building my 3dof from a static structure that I had a while ago. Thanks to the SCK Gaming tutorial I was able to do it and now it only remains to be able to download the plugin for dirt 2.0. At this stage I also add a buttkiker that the truth gives an incredible realism. Later I will go for some oculus to make everything more real.
    Greetings and thanks for every post

    Thanks for sharing your rig :thumbs

    I presume those are wiper motors, are they ground isolated?

    hello, if they are wiper motors and are insulated from ground. For the moment they work correctly. You would have to check the temperature after a few hours of use

    Hermanito, I Love Your Rig. I'm wanting to build one too. i just don't know what motors to use. Are you Happy with the Wiper Motors You Used?
    what do you recommend?

    Start your own build thread and post all ideas on what you want to build, plus any questions like this one, so all information relating to your build is in one place.

    Have a play with SimCalc and/or Motion Visualizer to get an idea of the tradeoffs between design and physics:

    SimCalc: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...e-linear-speed-and-forces-of-your-design.270/

    Motion Visualizer: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/motion-visualizer.389/

    You will find plenty of other helpful information in the FAQs, in particular check out the SimTools, fundamentals of motion and the design sections: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/

    You can go through existing member projects for specific ideas or inspiration: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/forums/diy-motion-simulator-projects.22/

    Or search for specific types of projects using the Google Custom Search function on the Recent page: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/find-new/posts?recent=1

    If something sounds odd then look it up in the glossary: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/glossary-of-acronyms-and-names.66/

    Hello friend, for me that weight of 70kg is a very good option. I use Chevrolet Corsa wiper blades. The levers are 5cm long ...
