    3DOF
    I'm considering buying a Simexperience GS-5G G Seat with belt tensioner. I current'y have a 5DOF rig that I scratch built using SCN-6 actuators. The G-Seat uses "simcommander" software, that currently does not support DCS. I'm wondering if I could get this thing to interface with Simtools, and would there be enough outputs to control the 5DOF, the G-Seat, and the Belt Tensioner? I'm very good on the mechanical side of things, but pretty clueless on the software plugin end.

    Hi Moe,
    Yes, I believe people on this forums have used their G-Seat with SimTools.
    Simexperience may even have setup instructions for SimTools, as I'm sure other have asked about this.

    And Yes, with v2 you can have 12 unique outputs.
    And with v3 you will be able to have 18 unique outputs.

    Take care,
    yobuddy
