    I have a Dofreality 3dof motion simulator and have been enjoying Warthunder, however my wife has not.

    My upstairs small box bedroom is my man cave/gaming den. I have put small rubber cups, the type that stops washing machines etc.. from wandering around the room under each adjustable foot. My wife tells me that it all still creates quite a racket down stairs, probably not helped by my laminate floor.

    Does anyone else have a problem with noise/vibration? If so what do you use to isolate it?

    I have neighbours next door and although they haven’t mentioned it yet, I’d like to try and reduce it, so any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks.

    My Motion Simulator:
    3DOF, DC motor, Arduino
    Bigger rubber cups.....

    You will need to upgrade to anti vibration mounts that are rated to the weight of your sim.
