    hi guys,

    Since I'm setting up my 6DOF motion seat I also play around with the "washout filter" for the DOF's e.g. Roll and pitch.

    After I changed from zero (default) to any other value, DOF servo position are going crazy , move to an totally unexpected position, also outside of defined ranges. Is not usable here.
    Seems to be a bug, but I have a hope that I'm maybe didn't understand the functionally right.

    Can anybody help ?

    I use smoothing instead of washout, as I find has more of a controllable effect, but what you describe with washout seems very unusual indeed. Care to post pictures of all your settings.

    They have never worked for me either in 1.3. Pretty much the same crazy outputs.
