    Hello, I am new to this forum and I was interested in getting some help in regards to going 3dof on my simlab p1 frame. I currently run a small mige OSW and the HE pedals, shifter and handbrake. Below is a picture of the frame it self (not mine) but the one from there website. I have a sparco seat installed as well. I would like to add motion and hopefully rear traction loss to the rig. What is the best route to take? The rig itself is heavy as you can see and I am about 220 pounds myself. I have seen some premade kits out there but most of the sites are not in english. I would prefer a plug and play solution, I am good with DIY projects but not very familiar with electronics but I can learn. Please let me know your advice and what you recommend. I also run 4 lfe buttkickers in chassis mode and I use the oculus rift as well. Looking forward to turning this into a motion rig.

    Thank you

    A G-seat would be perfect for this setup and have the response that I expect you are looking for - unfortunately nothing commercial is out there.

    Do you know if a pre built seat shaker I can buy? Like a assembled one i can just put under the seat. I was thinking something like the next level motion box
