Then as a teen, I discovered the PC and flight simulators. Then a little over a decade later..flight school and my Private Pilot's License. My ultimate dream was to become a fighter pilot. However, I've had to live that dream virtually in VR, lol. Just added my 6DOF rig...PT-Actuator. Loving it tremendously!

@@bulletstop100 that's awesome! Wow, UH-60. Much respect sir. And here I was thinking you were a young kid with a dream, lol. We're roughly the same age. I'll be 59 in October

yeah, sealt belt would make the immersive feeling even better, but in VR I have to turn around quite a lot while dogfighting and sealt belts restrict me a lot in this.
VR motion compensation, seriously I had never thought of that but so crucial! At the price of this honestly I'd probably just buy a part of an actual airplane (like few people buying a plane together) xD But that would just be a Cessna; to get that sort of fighter experience IRL is going to be expensive as hell. Sick setup!
Was that the 2 wire you hooked? That’s awesome!! I hope it’ll fit in Santa’s Sled because I’m sending him a text right now demanding this for Xmas. Very cool!
Actually I did had to wait until I could afford a house. Fortunately, within the years of waiting for a house the motion platforms made a huge development step forward…
Too cool! One thing I don't understand on the motion is when you launch it pitches you up at about 30° and when you land it pitches you down about 45°. I guess in VR it might feel correct, but if not in VR it would be very wrong feeling if you were looking at a stationary screen since you don't get tipped backwards, you get pushed back in your seat, etc. Also when you were banking it didn't tilt you at all. Again though, I'm sure in VR your senses don't notice it and it would be more focused on pitch as you pull through the turn, but yet again out of VR seems like it would feel wrong. Great video though. I'm building two rigs currently and both will have motion (someday) :)
Sorry for the late reply, pre-Christmas stress :-) First, the optics of the camera seem to be deceiving, the platform has maximum pitch of 30° to the front as to the rear. The fact that there is slightly less pitch to the rear on takeoff than to the front on landing is simply due to the slightly greater deceleration on landing compared to acceleration on takeoff. The platform transmits the values of DCS, which are very realistic. If I understand you correctly, you expect a "hit in the back" when landing. There is also a "hit in the back" via the heave movement, but the decisive force is the deceleration due to the braking and thus the pitch forward. If you wanted to fly with a monitor, this is only possible via a mounting on the cockpit, in contrast to many racing simulators, where the screen is static on the ground in front of you. The platform moves too much for you not to have to constantly adjust your viewing direction. Therefore, the screen has to be constantly in front of you, whereby the real immersion feeling only happens with VR, of course. Keep that in mind when building a plattform. The missing roll to the side in the turns is thus correct. You fly a so-called clean turn, without lateral forces (the center of gravity always remains directed downwards). It would feel quite wrong if the platform rolls to the side. Rolling movements of the platform only happen when you experience strong lateral forces, e.g. in turbulence or during a crash landing (see my other video). Hope this helps you!?
I did a 'simulator' at the museum of flight that could roll all the way over so you could be inverted. If you did a 90 degree banked turn it would tip you 90 degrees. I have never felt so ill after just ten minutes - the visuals and motion mismatch was awful. This set up looks spot on.
It'll swing to both sides I think. Motion sims don't replicate the plane's exact attitude, they replicate how it feels. That's why it pitches up when he accelerates
@famlrnamemssng Yes and in some software such as FlyPt, you can apply filters such as "washout", which will cause the rig to slowly return to center, instead of an abrupt move when rolling past inverted.
Funny thing is this is the future of air combat. We will sit in safe spaces and fly combat aircraft. Before anyone says AI, that is a long way off, maybe a decade or more until we turn combat aircraft loose without human intervention. I know all about Loyal Wingman but those aircraft will still have human control when needed.

@@Katagenaa very good question! What you are asking for is called „motion compensation“, meaning, that all VR motion resulting from platform motion must be ignored.

The front/back rotation looks correct, but heave looks like it's setup opposite. Have you tried switching it? During takeoff, the seat should push into your back, not pull away from it. During landing, the seat should pull away from your back, not push forward. Looks like a lot of fun, regardless.
Someone is looking very closely! However, I think you are mixing up the term Heave, which describes the vertical movement of the platform, with Surge, which describes the horizontal movement. The platform does it right with Surge, when accelerating strongly it moves forwards jerkily so that I am pressed briefly and strongly into the seat, the platform immediately compensates for this movement with a slow (imperceptible) movement backwards to return to the centre position. You can probably see the slow movement rather than the jerky snap forwards, which happens at the same time as the pitch movement. When landing, it's exactly the opposite - the platform has to jerk backwards to give me the feeling of being thrown out of the seat... Hope that helps you! PS: The same principles apply to Heave, which also works with vertical acceleration
@@madmontys6dofmotionplatfor386 Ah yes, I was mixing up my terms... and now that I'm watching even more closely, I see it now. What I was originally seeing is the return-to-center motion. Now that you explain this, I can see even better. Thanks! I appreciate the response and explanation.
A really legitimate question! The platform has now been in operation for 3 years and the joy of it is getting bigger rather than smaller. My cockpit has expanded considerably (Brunner FFB joystick, Virpil Collector, Winwing F18 MIP, F 16 ICP, PTO 2, Buttkicker), but unfortunately I can't find the time to make a new video (busy at work and with the family). Motion compensation works 100% at all times. In addition, the software is being rapidly updated with new features, e.g. vibrations during missile launches, chaff/flares, simulation of the ejection seat, etc. If something doesn't work, there is personal support from their CTO, even on Sundays. Incredibly good customer support. In this respect, my expectations have been exceeded by far.
@@madmontys6dofmotionplatfor386 great to hear, mate!! by the sound of it, it has paid back and still building it up! keep it up and enjoying it... and share us video when time permits... cheers
This should be mounted inside a Sphere with rolling tracks . Imagine if you could do a loop or roll and your strapped in . That would be the real life experience.
I thought about wind simulation (the software supports it), but in the end I would only find it realistic if I fly an open biplane or drive a convertible. Interesting fact - it feels so real that when I land after a 1-2 hour combat mission and open the canopy, I feel like I'm breathing fresh air 😅
@madmontys6dofmotionplatfor386 I thought that as well but even driving a car with open windows is still makes me feel like I'm driving a car more than when it's off
Yes - software of the platform is compensating all the platform/seat movements so that the headset behaves like on a normal, not moving seat. It is called "VR motion compensation".
Anyway you could tell me the components you used? I’d love to develop a commercial application for the youths. Especially what computer system you used and how you integrated the sim with the motion system.
please have a look into the links of the description. I have a normal high-end-pc and www.motionsystems.eu have a lot of really good platform solutions, that are all plug and play. You don´t have to worry about setting everything up.
Was hat der Spaß alles in allem gekostet? Ich schätze mal mit allem drum und dran, Aufbau, Transport usw. um die 30k €? Und wie ist das wenn du von Kampfjet auf Linienflugzeug oder sowas umsteigen willst, ist das kurzfristig und einfach umstellbar bzw. konfigurierbar? Wie war der Kontakt usw. mit unseren polnischen Nachbarn? Sorry für die vielen Fragen. 😅
Hey Juan, da liegst Du in der Schätzung wohl nicht ganz falsch. Ich war damals bei knapp über 20k, aber die Preise haben angezogen. Mittlerweile ist mein Cockpit massiv erweitert (viel von Winwing), plus Buttkicker und ganz neu der Seatbelt Tensioner von Qubic System. Die Umstellung der Software für ein Linienflugzeug dauert 1 Sekunde, Du musst nur zB den FS2020 auswählen und den dann starten. Bei der Hardware kommt es auf Deinen Geschmack an. Ich fliege selten Linie, daher fliege ich den auch mit Joystick und nicht einem Yoke. Aber das könntest Du problemlos umbauen. Das Cockpit habe ich selber individualisiert, von Kampfjet zu Rennsimulation mit Lenkrad und Pedalen dauert der Umbau bei mir weniger als 5 Minuten. Einen Yoke und ggf. Schubhebel rechts (statt links) könntest Du je nach Setup wohl viel schneller hinbekommen. Am Ende kaufst Du die Plattform und baust Dir Dein Cockpit oben drauf selber. Ich würde heute schon gar kein Monstertech mehr kaufen sondern die Profile direkt bei Alu-Profilherstellern kaufen und selber konfigurieren. Das ist günstiger und individueller. Und unsere polnischen Nachbarn sind das Highlight schlechthin. Mega zuverlässig im Sale und noch viel besser im Aftersale. Auf Discord schreibst Du wünsche / Anregungen oder Probleme und die sind gefühlt 24h online. Du merkst einfach, dass das eine kleine Community ist und Du da direkt mit dem CTO (heißt Pawel) sprechen kannst. Der Kerl zaubert regelmäßig neue Features aus der Hutschnur. Z.B. dass die ganze Plattform beim Strömungsabriss nun rüttelt. Einfach nur geil... Hoffe das hilft Dir weiter!
The manufacturer of the Motionsystems platform provides plug&play-capable software that automatically reads the G-forces from all (common) games and transfers them to the corresponding movements of the platform. Of course, you can make completely different settings for the movements in the software setup for each game so that it meets your requirements.
I still get it, but the older I get, the harder it gets! Although difficult to see, there is a small gap on the right and I can climb into the cockpit wonderfully via the step-on profiles. Climbing into a Cessna 172 is more difficult...
Looks very interesting, the system appears to be very lively and active for its size. Do you know if it's possible to tune the motion cueing algorithm?
Of course you can. The software of Motionsystems has a big range of possible settings. For every force (longitudal, lateral, vertical) and attitude of the plane (like pitch, roll…) you can adjust the intensity (max. movement) and the liveliness (speed of plattform movements) not only for being airborne, but also independently for being on the ground (taxi, takeoff etc). There is actually nothing you can‘t tune…
Does the motion sim move/rock in rough seas when you are just sitting on the deck? I also noticed the movement of the rig does not match the motion of the game in the video (??) Especially from 02:20 and on the footage seems out of sync when banking sharply the motion platform hardly moves. But maybe it is too subtle to see. But it sure looks like a sweet setup!
Yes, the platform moves even when the aircraft carrier sways in heavy seas. However, these are of course slight movements, as the maximum deflection must correspond to 9g. As far as your perception of a turn is concerned, there is often the (unfortunately wrong) opinion here in the forum that the platform should roll to the side in turns. Rolling to the side simulates lateral forces (such as in a turn on a racetrack). But there are no lateral forces in turns when flying - think of your drink in an Airbus/Boeing, it never spills out to the side in turns. It's the same in a jet, the turn leads to an increase in vertical forces, so the platform pitches backwards, but not to the side. If there were lateral forces (e.g. in a crash), the platform could roll to the side by up to 30 degrees. However, Motionsystems has a built-in function that allows the platform to roll to the side in turns, but this feels completely wrong to me (as a private pilot), so I leave it in what I consider to be the correct settings. I hope this helps you.
Yes, I looked at the options at the time. But especially in combination with the software and the compensation of the platform movements for VR headsets, the platform is in a different league. It's all very professional. That's why I saved a lot of money so that in the end I'd rather have something that works for a long time for a lot of money than a lazy compromise for little money. Start Citizen I unfortunately don´t play.
Hello! Amazing that platform. Congratulations. I would like how you fix your steel longitudinal cockpit to the “ platform”. I can see 2 horizontal pieces of steel i think…. But how you connect this? The system that fix the longitudinal steel its ok because i can see the square and screws, but how you fix to platform? That horizontal steel pieces have you bougth? Made? Thanks!!
Hello and sorry for the late reply, I was traveling abroad. The platform comes with a steel plate as a top cover. The two crossbars are 160x80mm aluminum profiles (e.g. Alu Profile I-type, groove 8), which are screwed downwards to the platform. The manufacturer has pre-drilled me in the steel plate the holes so that they fit exactly for the two crossbars. I then put a ready-made cockpit from Monstertech on top of the crossbars. At that time there was still the MTX cockpit, today it is called MTS. The MTX I have then individually still a little adapted, which is the same profile system as with the crossbars. The crossbars were only necessary because the forward cantilever of the MTX would otherwise have collided with the base of the platform if it pitched forward a lot. So now I have sufficient clearance for all maximum movements. Hope this helps you!?
You can find the current prices of the platform and the cockpit in the links of the description. In addition, you have to calculate about 1,000 euros for additional profiles and the racing seat.
how do you disconnect the movement of the rig from the head tracking? i.e. when the thing pitches forward, if you don't move your head relative to your seat, the VR image should make it look like you are looking down.
I can tell from the monitor of your left eye that there is a delay in the head tracking compensation for your movement. I have been sceptical of something like this in VR for this reason. Do you know if solutions to this have been better implemented today? I would assume it requires someone to make a driver injecting some filter to the headset's tracking, so that the positions can be adjusted with compensation of what the motion platform is doing. All without introducing latency. Do OpenXR have an API that supports this perhaps? In any case, this is my concern holding me from introducing any motion platform to my VR setup.
The platform movements are compensated for by the manufacturer's software. This not only works perfectly, but without any delay. You only have to calibrate your position once per game (this can now also be done automatically) and the software calculates every movement of the platform, however small, from the virtual movements of the VR headset. There was a time when the compensation wasn't synchronised in a rally game and I couldn't drive 500 metres before I felt really sick. That was quickly fixed. Now, the compensation is perfect for all games supported by Motionsystems, there is no time lag. My video seems to be a bit deceptive, but you can believe me. Otherwise, you would experience motion sickness within a few minutes.
This has been a new feature of the software for a few weeks now. And no, I'm not being shot through the roof! 😅But when I activate the ejection seat, the platform tilts backwards with a jerk and returns to its normal position when I'm hanging from the parachute. That's pretty cool...
What do you mean with vertical movements - heave? Heave only simulates short bursts of vertical g, that only occurs on landing and turbulences... But it is simulated very well.
Flight sim were definitely the most fun I ever had with VR headsets. It's crazy how it gives everything scale and it feels like you are actually in it.
Yeah, the sense of speed you get is insane. I can't imagine VR + a motion rig like this. I need to start saving up. lol

The front/back rotation looks correct, but heave looks like it's setup opposite. Have you tried switching it? During takeoff, the seat should push into your back, not pull away from it. During landing, the seat should pull away from your back, not push forward. Looks like a lot of fun, regardless.
Someone is looking very closely! However, I think you are mixing up the term Heave, which describes the vertical movement of the platform, with Surge, which describes the horizontal movement.
The platform does it right with Surge, when accelerating strongly it moves forwards jerkily so that I am pressed briefly and strongly into the seat, the platform immediately compensates for this movement with a slow (imperceptible) movement backwards to return to the centre position. You can probably see the slow movement rather than the jerky snap forwards, which happens at the same time as the pitch movement.
When landing, it's exactly the opposite - the platform has to jerk backwards to give me the feeling of being thrown out of the seat... Hope that helps you!
PS: The same principles apply to Heave, which also works with vertical acceleration
@@madmontys6dofmotionplatfor386 Ah yes, I was mixing up my terms... and now that I'm watching even more closely, I see it now. What I was originally seeing is the return-to-center motion. Now that you explain this, I can see even better. Thanks! I appreciate the response and explanation.
Nice 👌🏻 immersion 👀🤔😃👍🏻🙌🏻
Ouah le délire j'avais jamais vu ça chez un particulier
You need our Metahaptics Technology in your seat. That you feel next top motion every little detail from your aircraft. ;-)
after all this time how is the platform going? living to expectations? does VC motion compensation works flawlessly?
A really legitimate question! The platform has now been in operation for 3 years and the joy of it is getting bigger rather than smaller. My cockpit has expanded considerably (Brunner FFB joystick, Virpil Collector, Winwing F18 MIP, F 16 ICP, PTO 2, Buttkicker), but unfortunately I can't find the time to make a new video (busy at work and with the family). Motion compensation works 100% at all times. In addition, the software is being rapidly updated with new features, e.g. vibrations during missile launches, chaff/flares, simulation of the ejection seat, etc. If something doesn't work, there is personal support from their CTO, even on Sundays. Incredibly good customer support. In this respect, my expectations have been exceeded by far.
@@madmontys6dofmotionplatfor386 great to hear, mate!! by the sound of it, it has paid back and still building it up! keep it up and enjoying it... and share us video when time permits... cheers
This should be mounted inside a Sphere with rolling tracks . Imagine if you could do a loop or roll and your strapped in . That would be the real life experience.
Qual o valor de um setup completo igual ao teu? Parabens pelos equipamentos. São muito realistas.
Awesome!
thats awesome and the only thing missing is a wind simulator and some haptics
I thought about wind simulation (the software supports it), but in the end I would only find it realistic if I fly an open biplane or drive a convertible. Interesting fact - it feels so real that when I land after a 1-2 hour combat mission and open the canopy, I feel like I'm breathing fresh air 😅
@madmontys6dofmotionplatfor386 I thought that as well but even driving a car with open windows is still makes me feel like I'm driving a car more than when it's off
Where did they get those wonderful toys?😂😂
Does the headset "tare" the movement of the seat?
Yes - software of the platform is compensating all the platform/seat movements so that the headset behaves like on a normal, not moving seat. It is called "VR motion compensation".
Anyway you could tell me the components you used? I’d love to develop a commercial application for the youths.
Especially what computer system you used and how you integrated the sim with the motion system.
please have a look into the links of the description. I have a normal high-end-pc and www.motionsystems.eu have a lot of really good platform solutions, that are all plug and play. You don´t have to worry about setting everything up.
That’s insanely awesome!
how much does this cost? do you have a link to purchase?
please have a look into the links of the description. All together maybe 30k Euros today.
Leave your Stick alone during the acceleration…. Looks impressive
Was hat der Spaß alles in allem gekostet? Ich schätze mal mit allem drum und dran, Aufbau, Transport usw. um die 30k €? Und wie ist das wenn du von Kampfjet auf Linienflugzeug oder sowas umsteigen willst, ist das kurzfristig und einfach umstellbar bzw. konfigurierbar? Wie war der Kontakt usw. mit unseren polnischen Nachbarn? Sorry für die vielen Fragen. 😅
Hey Juan, da liegst Du in der Schätzung wohl nicht ganz falsch. Ich war damals bei knapp über 20k, aber die Preise haben angezogen. Mittlerweile ist mein Cockpit massiv erweitert (viel von Winwing), plus Buttkicker und ganz neu der Seatbelt Tensioner von Qubic System. Die Umstellung der Software für ein Linienflugzeug dauert 1 Sekunde, Du musst nur zB den FS2020 auswählen und den dann starten. Bei der Hardware kommt es auf Deinen Geschmack an. Ich fliege selten Linie, daher fliege ich den auch mit Joystick und nicht einem Yoke. Aber das könntest Du problemlos umbauen. Das Cockpit habe ich selber individualisiert, von Kampfjet zu Rennsimulation mit Lenkrad und Pedalen dauert der Umbau bei mir weniger als 5 Minuten. Einen Yoke und ggf. Schubhebel rechts (statt links) könntest Du je nach Setup wohl viel schneller hinbekommen. Am Ende kaufst Du die Plattform und baust Dir Dein Cockpit oben drauf selber. Ich würde heute schon gar kein Monstertech mehr kaufen sondern die Profile direkt bei Alu-Profilherstellern kaufen und selber konfigurieren. Das ist günstiger und individueller. Und unsere polnischen Nachbarn sind das Highlight schlechthin. Mega zuverlässig im Sale und noch viel besser im Aftersale. Auf Discord schreibst Du wünsche / Anregungen oder Probleme und die sind gefühlt 24h online. Du merkst einfach, dass das eine kleine Community ist und Du da direkt mit dem CTO (heißt Pawel) sprechen kannst. Der Kerl zaubert regelmäßig neue Features aus der Hutschnur. Z.B. dass die ganze Plattform beim Strömungsabriss nun rüttelt. Einfach nur geil... Hoffe das hilft Dir weiter!
@@madmontys6dofmotionplatfor386 danke dir für die ausführliche Antwort 💪🏻
That is very cool. How did you look the gforce data from the game into the chair? How did you know how far and fast to move it?
The manufacturer of the Motionsystems platform provides plug&play-capable software that automatically reads the G-forces from all (common) games and transfers them to the corresponding movements of the platform. Of course, you can make completely different settings for the movements in the software setup for each game so that it meets your requirements.
Dove l’hai comprato? Posso avere il sito internet? Quanto costa? Grazie
Pretty epic setup 🤙
I want to see you getting in & outta that thing? ...I love it!
I still get it, but the older I get, the harder it gets!
Although difficult to see, there is a small gap on the right and I can climb into the cockpit wonderfully via the step-on profiles. Climbing into a Cessna 172 is more difficult...
How do you get up there ?😅
When u realise.you have a joystick but yet you dnt even have any joy with your stick afyter watching this guy😊
Absolutely insane.
This is the real deal.
Awesome dude wtf!!!!!😊
I'm setting this as my goal for 3 years from now.
Great goal and we will be so much further in DCS, VR and motion technology then. In 4 years I will be jealous 😆
Looks very interesting, the system appears to be very lively and active for its size. Do you know if it's possible to tune the motion cueing algorithm?
Of course you can. The software of Motionsystems has a big range of possible settings. For every force (longitudal, lateral, vertical) and attitude of the plane (like pitch, roll…) you can adjust the intensity (max. movement) and the liveliness (speed of plattform movements) not only for being airborne, but also independently for being on the ground (taxi, takeoff etc). There is actually nothing you can‘t tune…

I'm not Jealous, because I do not begrudge him his next Gen toy. However... I am envious as hell.
Inprecionante simulador de vuelo ✈️ me gustaría mas información como lo adquiriste o qué compañía lo hace 👍👍👍👏👏👏
el dejo el link en la descripcion
I wonder how long it will be before they add UAP's to the sim ! Our pilots are seeing them everyday so let's make it real people!
Sucks I went blind in my left eye so I will never be able to experience VR I bet it’s amazing 👍
Un trench run dans star wars waouuuuu ❤❤❤❤
Does the motion sim move/rock in rough seas when you are just sitting on the deck?
I also noticed the movement of the rig does not match the motion of the game in the video (??) Especially from 02:20 and on the footage seems out of sync when banking sharply the motion platform hardly moves. But maybe it is too subtle to see. But it sure looks like a sweet setup!
Yes, the platform moves even when the aircraft carrier sways in heavy seas. However, these are of course slight movements, as the maximum deflection must correspond to 9g.
As far as your perception of a turn is concerned, there is often the (unfortunately wrong) opinion here in the forum that the platform should roll to the side in turns. Rolling to the side simulates lateral forces (such as in a turn on a racetrack). But there are no lateral forces in turns when flying - think of your drink in an Airbus/Boeing, it never spills out to the side in turns. It's the same in a jet, the turn leads to an increase in vertical forces, so the platform pitches backwards, but not to the side. If there were lateral forces (e.g. in a crash), the platform could roll to the side by up to 30 degrees. However, Motionsystems has a built-in function that allows the platform to roll to the side in turns, but this feels completely wrong to me (as a private pilot), so I leave it in what I consider to be the correct settings. I hope this helps you.
Fantástico.
Ive seen options as low as $5000 for one of these. How good it is im not sure, but i would absolutely love to have one for star citizen!
Yes, I looked at the options at the time. But especially in combination with the software and the compensation of the platform movements for VR headsets, the platform is in a different league. It's all very professional. That's why I saved a lot of money so that in the end I'd rather have something that works for a long time for a lot of money than a lazy compromise for little money.
Start Citizen I unfortunately don´t play.
Ooh. Def want one of those. 😂
How much does it cost to put that all together?
@@elserpiente98601 I spent 20k+ Euros, but in todays days its more like 30k+
Welcome to 4D!
Oh boy
Hello! Amazing that platform. Congratulations. I would like how you fix your steel longitudinal cockpit to the “ platform”. I can see 2 horizontal pieces of steel i think…. But how you connect this? The system that fix the longitudinal steel its ok because i can see the square and screws, but how you fix to platform? That horizontal steel pieces have you bougth? Made?
Thanks!!
Hello and sorry for the late reply, I was traveling abroad.
The platform comes with a steel plate as a top cover. The two crossbars are 160x80mm aluminum profiles (e.g. Alu Profile I-type, groove 8), which are screwed downwards to the platform. The manufacturer has pre-drilled me in the steel plate the holes so that they fit exactly for the two crossbars.
I then put a ready-made cockpit from Monstertech on top of the crossbars. At that time there was still the MTX cockpit, today it is called MTS. The MTX I have then individually still a little adapted, which is the same profile system as with the crossbars.
The crossbars were only necessary because the forward cantilever of the MTX would otherwise have collided with the base of the platform if it pitched forward a lot. So now I have sufficient clearance for all maximum movements. Hope this helps you!?
OMG........!👀 that's what i call a game 👍🏿👏🏿. You have to tell us how much and how you built it, and that's from scratch.
You can find the current prices of the platform and the cockpit in the links of the description. In addition, you have to calculate about 1,000 euros for additional profiles and the racing seat.
You spent 20k for that platform???!!!@@madmontys6dofmotionplatfor386
how do you disconnect the movement of the rig from the head tracking? i.e. when the thing pitches forward, if you don't move your head relative to your seat, the VR image should make it look like you are looking down.
The platform’s software does all the compensation perfectly and automatically
I can tell from the monitor of your left eye that there is a delay in the head tracking compensation for your movement. I have been sceptical of something like this in VR for this reason. Do you know if solutions to this have been better implemented today?
I would assume it requires someone to make a driver injecting some filter to the headset's tracking, so that the positions can be adjusted with compensation of what the motion platform is doing. All without introducing latency. Do OpenXR have an API that supports this perhaps? In any case, this is my concern holding me from introducing any motion platform to my VR setup.
The platform movements are compensated for by the manufacturer's software. This not only works perfectly, but without any delay. You only have to calibrate your position once per game (this can now also be done automatically) and the software calculates every movement of the platform, however small, from the virtual movements of the VR headset.
There was a time when the compensation wasn't synchronised in a rally game and I couldn't drive 500 metres before I felt really sick. That was quickly fixed.
Now, the compensation is perfect for all games supported by Motionsystems, there is no time lag. My video seems to be a bit deceptive, but you can believe me. Otherwise, you would experience motion sickness within a few minutes.
@@madmontys6dofmotionplatfor386 really? Shiet, a motion platform suddently became a viable option again, damn.
How about the Ejection Seat, does it simulate that too 🤔 😅
This has been a new feature of the software for a few weeks now. And no, I'm not being shot through the roof! 😅But when I activate the ejection seat, the platform tilts backwards with a jerk and returns to its normal position when I'm hanging from the parachute. That's pretty cool...
BRUH. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
harika olmuş
Money well spent!
4:24 I loved the video, but the sound volume was atrociously low. 😂😂
Almost as good as that homemade drift sim that spins and has nitro😂
This is insane.
What this game?
The only flight sim that has all the details DCS world
The vertical movements are just missing.
I'm not sure if the feedback is reflected correctly.
What do you mean with vertical movements - heave? Heave only simulates short bursts of vertical g, that only occurs on landing and turbulences... But it is simulated very well.
