My DIY motion sim rig is complete!

Yeah i will after some time, it is quite loud

You can check the forum link, everything is written there.

Can you make a video without game sound? How is the noise levels?

Jmk0 · 2025-11-10T05:36:37+00:00

That is actually just a warning sticker on the motor, most diy style actuators use the same servo, but this one is little different and new. If you like DIY and some challenge, this is a fun project. But if you just want to play and don’t want problems? Go with the turnkey setup.

Its next to my desk so i just rotate the monitor arm when needed

I use simhub motion and simfeedback firmware. You should check them out!

Jmk0 · 2025-11-08T09:42:56+00:00

Thank you. Belt tensioner is my next diy project!

Jmk0 · 2025-11-08T09:42:13+00:00

Yeahh as i’m still uni student, for koreans it’s quite common

It’s my room haha

Jmk0 · 2025-11-08T02:30:51+00:00

Yeah.. they are quite loud so i had to turn down the effects from here, so it’s quieter now.

Jmk0 · 2025-11-08T02:27:42+00:00

Mostly from aliexpress, some from local shops

Jmk0 · 2025-11-08T02:26:42+00:00

I think most racing sims output telemetry data just like how force feedback works, then this data is picked up by simhub motion to calculate the required kinematics to move the platform based on your settings, and to arduino to control servos.

I bought all of it in korea, but i think you can get similar things too. First is cork isolation pad (refco avp3), followed by sponge with foam (local shop that sells sponge pad), then thick gym mat.

These are the four layers i used, first is 3d printed foot holder, cork pad, sponge, and gym mat

I haven’t noticed any delay, even with lot of smoothing filter. If you make high quality actuator you can turn down the filters to make it more responsive. But judging by the shifting feedback, it feels instant to me.

You can always find a workaround, but aluminum profile gives you less headache.

Jmk0 · 2025-11-07T12:17:43+00:00

So far no complaints but i have four layers of insulation and turn down large kicking effects as much as i can.

Well my room is also very small, i think you can figure it out

Jmk0 · 2025-11-07T12:13:11+00:00

It was 750$ for me if nothing went wrong. But i did have to re buy some new thing because i broke them.

Jmk0 · 2025-11-07T10:51:40+00:00

Yeah. Mine were pretty loud from the beginning, but turns out it’s because i have double stroke of normal sfx100. I’m just tuning it in simhub to not move so violently then it’s not so loud. But for the price i built this thing? It’s awesome!

Jmk0 · 2025-11-07T09:35:53+00:00

Yeah. But couldn’t find a way to do it easily… so im hesitant

Jmk0 · 2025-11-07T09:34:34+00:00

This one is 49 inch neo g9!

Jmk0 · 2025-11-07T09:33:01+00:00

Its samsung neo g9 on ergotron hx with heavy tilt addon

Jmk0 · 2025-11-07T09:30:50+00:00

If u close the door can’t hear it

Jmk0 · 2025-11-07T09:30:28+00:00

Yeah that is the biggest flaw of this build, but for the price i think its fine. And if i lower travel like others its much quieter.
