New Project – Flight Simulator Motion Platform

Posted on August 16, 2010 by TGondek

Anyone interested in helping build a flight simulator motion platform? It will interface with MS Flight Simulator X or X-plane Flight Simulator

Here is a YouTube video showing what I would like to do. The first half of the video is him removing his old simulator. The “new” one is what I would like to build.

Here a video of the prototype being assembled

UPDATE:

Here is the web site with rough instructions on building

He is sending me a google sketch file of the acutator assembly. I know I will need some help with the metal work
