DIY 6DOF Motion Platform - FlyInside FSX - Oculus Rift DK2

[OXYOXYOXY]

you have the best motion pit ( home built) in the world. mega impressed

[jetraid]

Very cool. The best part, the landing, when you almost really lost your teeths :)

[larrysouthern]

Great build...you built it you fly it...who cares about the landing... I 'll bet by now he's greasing then in!!! Much respect!!! Keep on flying....

This thing with DCS and the f-18 or f-16 would be kick ass.

[ttraderjim]

Nice Rig! Hope that's a prototype for a future production model.

[Riddim_Squid]

I really do like your setup now you just need to work on the flying part

[serge]

Amazing how smooth it looks! Just one thing, a motion platform should not roll left or right when you are banking in the aircraft. The motion cueing should keep the platform level when you are banking in the actual aircraft.

Nice carrier landing. Really brilliant piece of kit. Where are my teeth?? Lol

[goonsflofy]

Amazing. Only issue I see is your motion platform should gently return to level after you have rolled into a banked attitude. In a right bank attitude, you don't feel like you are leaning to the right. You don't fall out of your seat in a turn.

Hey, man, I was intending to build this one for me. But I saw that the actuators were built by you, and that requires a lot of time and knowledge. Is it possible to buy these actuators?Tks so much, and congrats for u!

[vlkuser]

Great. I Want this configuration. Future is comming, rest to add virtual hands and g-forse 😀

[Bitonio]

Awesome ! I want too for my ConcordeX !

[mickbanks]

Love the sim chair... but man must be near impossible to view those gauges with a DK2

[mynameisprivate]

He built it from wood, are you kidding me this is clearly a one percenter here! That is worth more than a real airplane these days!

[arshanahmadi]

Where do you get information about the status of the plane and how do you see the engines?

[philipodey]

how do i get that home built brilliant.

[waldopepper]

Have you developed the motion cueing algorithms yourself? What I find puzzling is, that your rig is going into a bank when the aircraft is turning. A real 6 DOF simulator would tilt backwards in that case to simulate the acceleration you feel longitudinally along your vertical body axis (you feel like being "pushed into your seat"). Albeit, mechanically you rig seems sound.... ;-)

[AlejandroIrausquin]

Which will you say is the ratio of the apparent field of view in front of your eyes. I have read that the lack of peripheral vision makes people feel dizzy.

[drumsonly]

Wow, what a set up! Thinking of getting a rift, can get a used DK-2, or, should I wait for the CV-1? Thanks.

Wenn Du erst einmal in einer stabilen Kurvenlage angekommen bist müßte die Platform aber wieder annähernd waagerecht sein, oder?
