E69 Motion 2DOF v1.0

[Xosé Estrada]

E69 Motion 2DOF is a free software program that provides a user-friendly and intuitive tool, for the operation of motion chassis. It can be used to build a low-cost yet high-quality chassis for flight and racing simulators. It consists of a GUI in charge of the configuration, calibration and running-up of the motion system. Operation is very simple: select your actuator COM ports, complete the calibration, configure the actuator motion, configure the feel motion and off you go!



For DIY motion cockpits, you only need 2 SCN5 actuators, 1 or 2 Advantech USB-RS485 converters, a 24v power supply, diodes, resistors and some connectors. This software can be used in your DIY system or it can run on other motion systems such as Frex (only with Advantech USB-RS485 converters) or SimXperience.

A wide range of flight and racing simulators are supported: iRacing, Rfactor, Rfactor 2, the Codemaster Series, the Simbin Series, Richard Burns Rally, Live for Speed, Game Stock Car, Kart Racing Pro, IL2 1946, DCS World, Falcon 4 and X-Plane.

New simulators such as Asseto Corsa, pCars, Rise of Flight or FsX shall be supported in the upcoming version. In addition, a 3DOF system has been developed, but is still a WIP. Other actuators are currently under investigation and testing.

100000x cool points! This is excellent news, this is the kind of development that can finally bring motion to the masses.

Well.. make sure you don't have family or neighbours close to the room you are racing with such material. These most of the setups make a lot of noise and heavy vibrations.

E69 is fantastic definitely my motion software of choice

My question is how much torque or force Nm does the engine have to have so rpm?

wowzers, 5 year thread bump, Fwiw There are MUCH better motion solutions out now a days, SFX100 All the way over any other DIY based setup. Especially loud squeaky Stepper based actuators.
