Hi to all,
 

&gt;=20
 

&gt; instead try to built a motion simulation platform by yourself better u=
se hardware from a rock n ride chair.
 

&gt; I have started in late summer 2001 to built a f-16 pit who works ( it=
s 50 % finished) with the motion chair.
 

&gt; Here a the specs:
 

&gt; - around 60 leds with 2 mm 5541 led driver chips who works with the g=
reat lightdriver program from Rob Favre=20
 

&gt; - Keyboard encoders: Hagstrom KE 72 and a hacked cherry progammable ke=
yboard in the future
 

&gt; - Motion: modified rock n ride who interacts with falcon 4.0 SP2
 

&gt; (using pitch and roll data from the the shared memory to get motion=
 data )
 

&gt; - Sound: loudspeaker and transducer for vibration
 

&gt; - visuals: fresnel lens =20
 

&gt; I send the whole story and a lot of pics to the simpits website. =20
 

&gt;=20
 

&gt; (If you looking for cheap knobs who looks good do a trip to a car ceme=
tery. I have found there =20
 

&gt; nice knobs who fit perfect to the pit and paid only 3 $ for 6 sharp lo=
oking knobs.)
