MadMonty Posted August 13, 2024 Posted August 13, 2024 (edited) Dear FlightSim enthusiasts! A few years ago, I shared my 6DOF motion platform with the community here, and I’m excited to say that after countless hours of work and fine-tuning, I’ve finally completed what I consider to be the ultimate hardcore flight simulation setup. My rig now includes a wide array of equipment, from various joysticks/collectives and Winwing instrument panels to a Brunner FFB base and a Buttkicker for added tactile feedback. The latest addition to my setup is the brand-new Qubic System Seatbelt Tensioner QS-BT1. I was skeptical at first about how much difference a seatbelt tensioner could make, but I have to say, the impact on immersion is nothing short of amazing. It adds an entirely new layer of realism, making every maneuver feel even more authentic. The combination of motion, force feedback, and now the seatbelt tensioner truly makes it feel like I’m in the cockpit of a real aircraft. If you’re interested in seeing the setup in action, I’ve put together a video where I walk through the entire cockpit and demonstrate its capabilities.

Panzerlang Posted August 13, 2024 Posted August 13, 2024 That is a seriously impressive setup. HMOG territory. My only concern would be keeping on top of all the software functionality. That and all those cables.

My only concern would be keeping on top of all the software functionality. That and all those cables. The management of the software itself is not that bad. Both the platform and the Seatbelt Tensioner run on the same software, which is completely plug & play. Apart from that, I only need Winwing, Thrustmaster and Brunner as software for the joysticks and panels. The cable clutter is the bigger problem. I pulled the platform out of the corner for the video, so it's a relative mess. Once it's back in the corner, the cables will be a bit better organized. But the number of USB input devices is quite frightening PC: Asus ROG Strix B650E-F Gaming | AMD Ryzen 7800X3D | Palit GeForce RTX 4090 Game Rock OC | 64 GB Patriot VIPER VENOM DDR5-6000 Input: Brunner CLS-E FFB Base | Thrustmaster Warthog Joystick & Throttle | Thrustmaster TPR Pendular Rudder | WinWing Phoenix MIP (VR) - F16 ICP - PTO2 | VPC SharKA-50 Collective VR: HP Reverb G2 Motion-Platform: Motionsystems PS-6TM-150 | Monstertech MTX Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@madmontys6dofmotionplatfor386/featured
