With SSA you can run 6 motors. The NLR software uses the 8 motors of the HF8.

I run it with SSA. I like the helicopter specific effects and can run it simultanously with buttkicker bassshakers.

Hour did you setup your 3 bass shakers? 

I have 2 shakers fed from a single Amp nicely placed in the rudder pedal plate

What's your soundcard for the shakers? Amp? Location of shakers around your pit

I have one buttkicker on the front plate of my rig just in front of the pedals. This runs with a original buttkicker amp.

the other two are located left and right under my seat. They are connected to a stereo 2 channel amp. It‘s a Fosi Audio BT20A.

Soundcard is a external usb Terratec Aureon USB 7.1 PC.

Got the pad yesterday.

Used Simshaker for Aviators.

After some tweaking, I really liked the haptic feedback through the seat (even if the top two motors are inactive with SSA).

Favorite as of now are the effects when firing the gun (for planes where the vibration is continous as long you hold down the trigger and have ammo 🙂), dropping ordonance and the effects when airbrakes/gear is out. Also some vibration when running AB is useful. 

In my setup (office chair) the pad is fairly comfortable (much better than I feared, based on some reviews).

Biggest downer was that the gun vibrates only for a short time on the F-5E and A-10C II (!!!), even if the trigger is held. Works great in the F-16 and F-15E. Only four modules tested so far.

This pad is a keeper.

 

Short update. I decided to return it after about 2 weeks. I really wanted to love it, but my butt went on strike every time I wanted to fly. When you are not able to get immersed in the game because of pain, it is not a viable solution.

I had it on top of a medium soft office chair and even tried to sit between the motor pucks and also putting a soft thick wool blanket to ease the pain.

I can easily fly 3-4 hours on my office chair without the pad.

I don't take the seat pad off at all, and after an 8-hour flight, my eyes are mainly tired.
