Motion Data outout.

[[OCG] Caveman]

Hello,

A huge request for all of us that run motion platforms.

After death aircraft will spin and shake violently! We DESPERATLY need an option to disable motion data immediately after death so as to not get flung out of our rigs...!! Several times I’ve had to hit the Emergency stop due to the extreme violent motion.

For reference my rig can do 400mm/Sec in 6 DOF and 35 Deg/Sec, so it can get quite scary!! And yes... I have heavy Duty seat belts!!

Cheers Team.

Very nice setup there mate!

Does your motion controller or motion interface software have a spike filter at all?  

If not then you would need to look at the telemetry from DCS and monitor/limit excess changes of rates there.

Thanks! it been a journey to get to this, and as an aircraft engineer it's been heaps of fun developing and building!

Yes there are spike filters, how ever adding filters is a doulbe edged sword.
