    I suggest spending some time going through this DIY actuator thread, then review all other 6DOF projects, including variations to actuator designs: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/diy-linear-actuator-design.8221/

    One of the 6DOF threads you will come across is by @SixDegreesOfFlight, which indicative cost wise includes a pretty extensive 6DOF parts list, excluding the frame: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/x-plane-11-6dof-motion-platform.10542/#post-136337

    Check out the FAQs when you strike something new or want to see how others have approached a particular challenge.
