Thanks my friend! There were a lot of 'grey' areas I had to figure out when I built my 3DOF. So I figured I was not the only one trying to make one. Thanks for the comment! DMAX
First, congratulate you on your videos, it helps us a lot to those of us who are starting. In fact, thanks to your videos, I have encouraged myself to make my platform, very similar to that with short arms. What I have done has been to put some shock absorbers helping to raise the platform, it helps the engine to push and counteract the weight of the pilot, and it works great. All the best.
So this is what Ive always wondered on these type of builds. Why arent the motors mounted up front by where the pedals would be and have a bar under the peddle platform to each corner. Kinda like a wheelbarrow motion, in my head that seems like a way better use of leverage and a lot less stress on the motors? Im no engineer by any means, just seems logical to me lol Having it on the back the weight, of the driver is always pushing down on it.
man I appreciate those who go through lenghts of making expesive things possible at a reasonable price, a DIY. D Max should have a much bigger channel for this as a sub base since sim racing is pretty big right now. Wondering if people today are too lazy to do DIY's and just buying ready built things that are over priced because of hype
Most likely. However they are super short right now barely 2 inches CtoC so the seat is the biggest lever I can find. I'd rather not try and make the motor lever shorter. Thanks for the comment Brian! DMAX
Thanks Dave looking good Brother! Loving this can't wait to see what's next!
Appreciate the comment my friend! We will find out pretty soon! Dave
I really appreciate these videos. You have a better sim rig and you continue to make this accessible for everyone. Great content man!

It's always great to be here in the workshop with you and listen to you explain how it all works. Stay awesome 😀
I appreciate the comment Danjuls! I'm hoping to build a 6DOF for the Elite Dangerous game.. *mind blown!*

Thanks Stuart! DMAX
Can't you just reduce the length of the arms that come off the motors ? You would get the same effect surely ...
