[simpits-tech] Falcon 4.0 with motion sim

[A L B E R T]

I think I saw that on the news about a year ago of that device in "the big
boy's toys exhibtiion" in Sydney.

It was used in a F1 car simulator.

I was very impressed...however, didnt know what it was and where to find out
more info. would be nice to have some motion in a F16 pit..but with 300lbs "
take off limit " what does that compute to Kilogram?
