- Howdy folks! I've finally done it! Belt tensioner installed. :)
SPOILER ALERT: It's Awesome!!
Thanks to Flag Ghost for his design. If anyone is interested he is contactable through Discord on Thanos and Xsimulator Channels. Alternatively you can reach him by email: chris.green@imagebuff.com
A lot of the guess work has been taken care of with this so I would highly recommend the purchase if you are a bit hesitant going into a belt tensioner. Its a sleek and affordable solution that works great. Highly recommended.

Shoutout to Thanos, the whole Xsimulator community and everyone else sharing their knowledge for making this hobby as great as it is!
Well i can confidently say i will be building my own 6 Dof. I quite like your design and the 3d printed parts.
I took a look at your thread and its some great pointers, it would be nice to see a updated list of parts specs ect since there has been some changes since the last video.
Parts are a little harder to source in the UK, if the preices arent already skyhigh.
Well done dude, real nice setup!
Your rig is impressive, thanks for the info.
Thanks for watching!
I really need to get my motion rig going again! I have had sooo many issues with motion compensation and the Varjo Aero I gave up on motion until some of the issues are resolved. Thanks for the new video though because this was on my list of upgrades for sure.
Have you tried openxr motion compensation? They got it up and running real quick! The varjo seems to work better with the openxr over steamvr.. from what I've heard. So tracking should be better. Openxr (open composite) gets way better performance too. Check it out.
I have the aero and a 6 dof rig and I have no issue with motion compensation I think it might have to do with me having three base stations so maybe you can try that unless you have some other issue
Absolutley awesome Chris im well impressed !! Bet they feel amazing in VR
the driving however needs some work hahahaha
Cheers mate! Yeah now I trust them to not pulverise me I might throw the headset on!
Lol! My driving always sucks when I'm testing shit on camera! I can drive better.. not much.. but a bit better 🤣. Basically time to lay the tools down for a bit and get some more seat time!
ODrive tensioner incoming? The belts are already there... ;)
@@peacemakermotion3949 hah I thought about it for a long time but was way down my list , maybe one day
@@silentchill need to know !!!! Is it better one or two motor for the feeling …thanks !
So impressed!! Must feel amazing to drive. Well done 👍
Thanks man!! It certainly adds an extra level of immersion thats for sure. I think next I may have to join the CNC club.. I know that will definitely make sure I have no time left for the wife 🤣🤣
Great video as always! Well done!! 👍
Thanks Thanos!
It looks very good, but you should add a grip between the back of the chair and the chassis, in the video you can see how it moves everything backwards...
Yeah its actually this chair. It's really cheap and nasty. I wanted a reclinable chair for those long sessions. But it has a stupid amount of play in the back rest. Even without the tensioner the chair still flexes alot. I would like a better chair one of these days for sure. But maybe I could do like you said for now and have something to wedge in there and stop the flex. Thanks for the idea :)

Oh man! That looks so awesome! 😍
Much love brother! Yours is looking a little bare at the rear end.. time to sort that out.. 😛. Your wife is gonna ban you from talking to me 🤣🤣
@@peacemakermotion3949 haha my wife or my bank 🤣🤣
Esse simulador parece um Megazords... eu precisaria de um pouco menos.👍👍👍
The sound from the black drives is 10khz not 16 kHz I believe the white once’s are 16khz and that’s why you don’t hear them
@Simlife101 that's correct. 15khz, I believe is the white ones, from memory. But I have a million numbers running through my brain I never remember them when I'm recording on the spot haha.
Exactly what I’m looking for! Just wondering how much a belt tensioner setup like this would cost me to add to my system? Motor, rollers, belt and controllers. I’m in Melbourne 👏👏👏👏
amazing work! do a flight sim video with this belt tensioner running?
Cool. Looks nice and clean! 👍✌
Cheers mate! :)
Really cool setup! I couldnt help but notice the qr codes at the wall, is it for use in VR? I hade the idea of creating sort of "Anchor points" for the tracking on the quest headsets for it to be able to remember its position better so i dont need to fiddle with recentering every time i play. Is this what you use them for?
Hey mate. Cheers. Yeah they help because the one downside of inside our tracking is it picks up the monitors alot and thinks your stationary. Mainly for use with motion compensation. I find just using 3 axis on the HMD has good results too as it just uses the gyro and not cameras
Ahhh i see, thanks!@@peacemakermotion3949
Perfect 👌
Thanks :) it does kinda look right at home there doesn't it haha
hello, do you use simtool for the tensioner? or flypt? because I would like to make it work with simtools but I don't know if it's possible. THANKS
flypt :)
what are the settings on those red pins on the controller ? DIP and on switches I believe it says on it. Thanks
Should be all in thanos manual. But they do certain things like stop displaying live actuator position to free up controller memory etc etc
Hi, i just built 6dof and im thinking about ordering 6 of 110v 1000w servo motors with 30amp white controllers. Do you think 30amp white controller is ok in united state?
Sorry a bit late. Should be totally fine. most people use the 750w 20A setups there.. dont see why it wouldnt work.. these rigs dont even use 25% of the rated power anyway
Amazing !! And once again get your hands out of my wallet ... Better yet, shut up and take my money !!
what size belt did you use? im in the process of building this seat tensioner
The same as he recommends. the 325mm i'm pretty sure
do you have somewhere where people can go to find your plans?
The belt tensioner plans are paid plans to Chris Green. Aka flag ghost on the discord forums linked.
If you're after my 6dof plans then my xsimulator.net page has them. The links can be found in most of my 6dof build related videos
Why why why are these actuators this way? They should be solid large dimension shafts, not three triads like this.
Is that so? Do tell me more 😁
Which discord forum?
Thanos discord should do it
