    Yes I believe it is possible, but you would need a special firmware that knows about the -180 to 180 deg jump.
    other wise when it goes over this hump, the sim would swing all the way around to get to the new position.

    @yobuddy
    well. we were not discussing about turning point (-180 and 180 deg jump)
    we were talking about extra axis (7th axes) under the 6dof rig which play the full turn 360 deg yaw role
    is it possible to prepare another axis with this version of simtools?.
    thank you & regards

    @hooshang,

    Sorry buddy, but we only have 6 axes implemented for now.
    It's possible that a future version could have more, but I'd rather see true Stewart platform support before just more axes available.
    I just need more time in a day lol....
