Aww dang DGator 72!! That's fantastic! Thanks so much for the SUPERTHANKS.. yeah just a bit worried that maybe the "POWERS that BE" will shut down this video.. cause Me and Christian Horner go way back.. "even with the same shirt".. Big RB fan here obviously.. Hope this new series sheds some light.. New Ep coming up soon my friend and thank you again for watching and thank you again for being cool. Dave
It's been a difficult weekend.. a bunch of folks just north of me got hammered by a tornado.. I'm putting a little info out on the situation on my Road Rage video but still some good info out tomorrow on problems I just encountered on the motion sim.. Hope you have time to take a look.. Dave
Very cool my friend! Thanks for watching.. Hopefully it can inspire you.. It's just about learning stuff.. 2 new videos out here.. ruclips.net/video/UXS45Z2GHMk/видео.html Dave
Hey dave, I would suggest to have a small opening or even a small fan blowing the air out. You have a big fan blowing air in but the warm air has nowhere to go. Love your videos!!
Yes. I would.. I have that on my 'daily driver' .. even with the inch holes in the box to allow hot air to escape, an 'exhaust' fan would be my choice.. not totally necessary but I did do this on a few of the box controller rigs.. I'm just trying to keep it simple and not overwhelm people with information.. just the basics.. Dave
Thanks for the comment! Yeah I'm going through it step by step and trying not to leave anything out. So which VR HMD are you going with.. I still have my old Rift CV1.. what video card.. I have an old 1080ti.. from when they first came out.. maybe 2012? Dave
@@elstyloogaming6447 Sounds legit for sure. I've been thinking of upgrading the a newer HMD.. but then I would need to upgrade the PC parts too probably.. * so a bought a gamer laptop * I dont know if it will work yet or not in VR but I'm going to give it a try.. NVIDIA 3050 card Pretty good I5 and 16ram. Not tested it yet but it sure does scream through video editing..
Great tutorial! Ever think about hollow dowel spacers with through bolts instead of wood strips for spacers? Less fab work and better air flow since your not blocking off whole strips of the box. Just my thoughts as planning my build. Keep pumping out great content.
Aw man Shawn.. Thanks for the comment and thoughts.. Hmm.. I have not thought about it.. I guess I try and keep it a bit simpler.. But you do have a point about the air flow. I'll put it on the 'think about it' list.. Dave
@@JayRDucer Yeah.. let me know if it's stable.. I would think you might need to fasten the dowels from below instead of gluing them.. Some people think I have the 3d printer.. but I dont.. so I just use what is simple.. Let me know buddy.. Dave
Can you please share some drawings and measures on your frames? I might build one myself very slowly due to all sorts of constraints and would be great to have a solid baseline to follow through as to ensure things to fit nicely in-between. Thank you very much for all efforts on sharing with us. You rock!
Yeah that's a question a few people have asked. i probably will, but need to finish up this project.. It's kinda a work in progress.. after I get it running I will find a way to post the dimensions and parts if I can.. So stay tuned.. new EP coming soon to the ruclips.net/p/PLO8l70qEp71MJmsLnFxUUTULDhrzVlSuQ
Dangerous. Yeah.. Well you know you have to be careful with tools.. and wires. and stuff.. Be sure to ask your doctor for a prescription for "MOTIONSIMBUILDitis.." it's a common syndrome for people who are bored with static sims.. 👽
No advantage.. the IBT-2's get warm but arduino does not .. Thanks Todd.. I'm posting a new Q&A tomorrow on the Road Rage Series.. Might include this question and a better explanation.. Tune in if you can.. Dave
I probably messed up and called it something else.. Here is a link to an older video which followed the last one up.. ruclips.net/video/YPMP2YtaSis/видео.html And here is a link to the Newer series I am working on right now.. ruclips.net/p/PLO8l70qEp71MER1P0D-BBZza_gqzzmgp_
Hello D max, I watch all your videos from back in 2dOF motion series, I'm so great full for all the videos. my name is Israel from Ethiopia, I'm from Africa I can't be able to buy any plugin to actually play the game, because even if I want to pay for the plugins I can't be able to pay because we don't have access to Paypal or any payment system outside of Ethiopia. so my question is how can I get free plugins so I can play, or how can I apply for free plugins if that is possible
So I'm not sure on that. I did ask "noorbeast" who is the moderator for the x-simulator.net forum about it.. He said something to the effect that I cant give away the plug ins.. They are made by many different people.. You can ask him yourself - Just go to x-simulator.net look up "noorbeast" and write him.. At my level - just a subscriber to x-simulator (not an admin or anything) that's the best I can think to assist you. Dave
Man, for a second there, I thought you were Christian Horner! Awesome as always D 👍. Thanks!

Thank you sir! I’ve just found you and have been watching your 3DOF series. Just what I need. Can now proceed on my project!
Great idea.. It takes a little while to get the parts but it well worth the effort.. Dave
Cool seeing everything in a nice little package.
I hope you and yours are doing okay this weekend.

If you put this in a 10 hour video I’d watch ~ 22 year old with no idea about any of this. One of my favorite series

Great stuff, D Max!! Helpful steps on starting the wiring process⚡️ I’m sure the vinyl wrap on the box will look dope 😎
Your the Best B! Yeah I like the way it looks.. Not perfect but probably going to hold up better than paint. Thanks for watching!

I like that idea. I live in Florida and it's hot all the time even when we get our cold spell. I'm definitely going to use that dowel idea. Thanks

Would there be any advantage to separating the ITB2 from the arduino? Does the arduino get hot? or as hot? Keep up the great videos!
