    Hi Henning,

    I want to compliment you for the beautiful sim that you've built, :thbup:
    I started by buying SCN5 actuators to build my own sim.
    I have a question about the profiles you used
    Do you have a list of the sizes of the profiling, it would be building my sim a lot easier when i have the correct dimensions of the profiles.

    Which profiles do you use the 40mm or 45mm
    What is the total length of the frame. I mean what is length of the two outer profiles

    Lieber Henning, ich muss etwas gestehen...

    ich bin schwer verliebt in dein Rig! Hättest du evtl. noch ein paar Detailbilder zum Gelenk unter dem Sitz auf Lager?

    Leider kann ich da drauf nicht viel erkennen. Mich würde vorallem das Gelenk interessieren und da ist entweder zuviel Schatten oder ein anderes Teil davor.

    Ich dachte vielleicht hat er noch ein paar Bilder ohne Sitz herumliegen :(

    Sorry Admins, mich treibt diese Seite zur Weißglut. Zum mehrten Male habe ich jetzt über 20min an einem Beitrag geschrieben, und beim Senden war ich dann ausgelogged und der Beitrag und meine Arbeit für die Katz!

    Also jetzt zum Thema:

    To Pascal:
    First to the used Profiles: They are all System 8, that means a slot that opening is 8mm wide. Profiles were mostly 40*40, and some 80*40 and 120*40.
    Total length is 202cm.


    Zum Universal Joint. Mein selbst gebauter war super, allerdings war der Verschleiß der Lagerbuchsen zu groß. Hier könnte man die Buchsen nicht verwenden und statt dessen Kugellager (Inliner haben ganz gute Masse) verwenden. Ich habe ein Gelenk vom Landrover Discovery bei Ebay bestellt für knappe 15 Euro und mir Adapterbuchsen vom Kumpel drehen lassen die mit den Profilen verschraubt werden.

    Demnächst wird der Sim noch mit Platten teils verkleidet, ein Gurtstraffer kommt noch, am Wheel wird noch was gemacht und am Seitenkasten wird auch noch was gemacht.

    PS:

    Ich hatte das im VR Racing Forum angeboten und paar haben schon das Angebot angenommen. Wer in der Nähe von Stuttgart ist, oder die Reise nicht scheut weil er Neugierig ist, oder Hilfe braucht, der ist gerne auf eine Probefahrt eingeladen. Ich hätte damals als ich in der Planung war, gerne vorher eine Probefahrt irgendwo gemacht.


    I said it in another German board, and some folks came and took the chance for my offer: Who is in the area of Stuttgart, or is willing to make this journey, can make a testdrive on my sim. It might help you in you planing or decision of building an own sim

    Thanks for responding,

    It is shame that you so much time spent in describing your project, and then everything to lose.
    But if you still have a copy of data, you can send it by email. ;)

    I would like a ride in your sim but Stuttgart => Hoogerheide (Netherlands) is 600km is a bit too far

    Pascal,

    You can buy the profiles also in the Netherlands, i have built a rig about two years ago with the same profiles.
    I will search for the invoice to get the supplier details.

    Ok thanks, i now there are more suppliers in the Netherlands, thats not the real problem.
    the difficulty is the exact size of aluminum profiles :(
    So I can order the correct size of the profiles.

    Die nächste große Operation ist beendet, und Sobald das Kabel für den Aktuator aus den USA angekommen ist, beginnt die Betaphase. Wenn das dann alles läuft, sollte ich wirklich zum Amt und ein Gewerbe anmelden :D

    This looks like a very intresting upgrade to a great sim setup already.

    I cant wait for the video.

    Will you have enough power with scn5s to shif the weight?

    I have wait for the cable for the actuator. One parcel got lost on the way from the US; so I have to wait a little longer for the second. The sim is moving extremly easy. You can push it with your index finger and then you have to stop it again, because it would roll and roll and roll. It should work with an SCN5, but I have a 29kg SCN6 with 200mm travel. So I can mount it more in the center of the sim. It has enough force, and due to the lever reduction, I got more travel out of it. (test and calculated at the back where the slider plates are 15cm in each direction)
