How to build a Motion Sim Racing Rig - Start your journey!

I am going to show you how to build a Motion Sim Racing Rig out of basic parts anyone can get.
So start your journey here! This is a true DIY Motion Simulator! Here's how to do it on the cheap!

00:00 I will show you how I built this 3 DOF motion racing simulator out of basic parts
00:15 pre lockdown Logitech setup
00:50 x simulator forum PGSAW 50:1 crab pot puller motors 12V
01:00 parts Arduino uno and IBT-2 Motor Controllers
01:22 both motors working on with SMC3 software
01:50 I started designing my rig
02:15 Christmas gift - stationary rig - had to tear it apart!
04:00 Building the seat frame
04:45 Bought a cheap MIG welder to weld metal sections together
05:10 U joint from the junkyard
05:50 designed and built motor mounts
06:12 added traction loss motor and my WILD first test Drive!
06:43 Added VR oculus Rift CV1
07:00 recent upgrades Thanks for watching! DMAX

50:1 12volt motors just search Ebay for GEAR MOTOR 12 VOLT GREAT FOR SAWMILL/CRAB POT PULL/FEED/SIMULATOR 75-80RPM 50:1 (sold by PGSAW in Canada)

Hall Effect Potentiometers DIGI-Key and others PN 987-1392-ND

Arduino UNO R3 - amazon. I have also used the cheaper ELEGOO clone.

IBT-2 motor controllers up to 43amps (which is a lot!)
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00WSN98DC?...

other motor controllers you could consider using are JRK12V12 or Sabertooth but I use IBT-2's

XSIMULATOR forum - Info specifically for arduino/IBT-2 for 1 to 3 Motors. You can use up to three motors per arduino. But you each motor needs it's own IBT-2 controller.
