This is the place for all your comments and questions on this great series:wink:
Ok, seems like no one else has a question yet, so let me be the first. To get a good feel of the motion with your software, what speed do the cylinders need to travel and what distance? Is the speed determined by the cylinder, the pump or both? What diameter do the cylinders need to be. Can the cylinders be pneumatic, hydraulic, or can/are they worm gear?
For a single seater I would imagine that the cylinders don't need to be that large in diameter due to the limited weight that is being moved, though I would imagine that the cockpit is going to have to be fairly hefty in order to handle the stress of being tossed around like that.
Also, are there specific Heim joints that should be used, or are they all just about the same when it comes to this application and load?
Steady George old boy... give the fellow half a chance, theres a good chap:tongue:
Sorry Brian... calm down George...calm down....
+1 There Freand!

Please get writing we are impatient...!
Thanks
George
I'm very glad to see this thread starting up at RD. I've built my own motion DIY motion platform from scratch and currently own one of Berney's Stage IV motion platforms. I have learned a lot from Berney and othes in the motion sim community over the past year and I hope that I will be able to contribute to this thread and answer any questions that I can
