    Any hardware store. You need 1/2" diameter legs.

    Okay thank you.

    I am thinking about using two SCN6 with 150 mm stroke instead of 100 mm to have more motion.

    I will use my motion sim for driving and flight sims.

    Do you think 150 mm stroke is overkill?

    No it's not overkill, especially if you play airplane and space simulators.

    Hi all I am new this forum. I just received a TR160 rig from Trak Racer. I was wondering if I can build a 4DOF with 4 x SCN 6 actuators. Prosimu is selling a pair that is plugnplay for cheap. Could they handle the weigh of rig 69kg and mine 69kg as well?
    Thank you

    @Camerus Nice buy!

    My actuators are the same as ProSimu (SCN6-40-100) and they are not powerful enough for a setup of 4 actuators.

    Time passed, but...
    I'm trying to follow you.

    I am curious about the final revision of the RS1 sheet.
    Thank you for uploading the video of your work.

    Sorry @soon jae _Lee, I sold my whole system and switched to a Sim-Lab P1-X cockpit with a Sigma Integrale DK2 kit

    Thank you for your answer.
    You made a huge upgrade...
    Do you use DK2 connected to P1-X?
    If you tell me what's better than before, I'll refer to it.

    @soon jae _Lee

    Sorry for the late response. Since I have the DK2, I almost never come here.
    To answer your question; everything is better! It's not comparable.

    To get an idea, just watch a few minutes of this video:
