Adjustable & shaking VR-SimSeat

Postby napsterium » Sat 19. Mar 2016, 16:17

Hi folks,

I would like to introduce myself and current status of my simseat. I´ve started to work on that rig a year ago. As usual, that seat passed already some iteration loop of optimization - still gap for improvements ;) .

I am 43 years old guy living in germany, countryside close to cologne. That seat was initiated on a fancy idea with some friends of mine, to create something special for our kids on the street at the time we organized a street party. Well - kids and speacially all the "older" kids (/fathers) did had a lot of fun racing on the green hell of Nürburgring ...

Some impressions attached:







... well - seat still fufills his job ... now at my private office :P

Some technical specs:
- wooden rig with dampers underneath
- leather VW EVO seat (airbag removed)
- Thrustmaster 500 set incl.
- TH RS shifter
- Saitek X52 Pro HOTAS
- 2 sets of powered transducers attached (two transducers underneath pedals / one butt kicker 2 underneath seat)
- Logitech G430 surround headsets
- OCULUS DK2

... well, I hope more will follow soon. Just funded the first earlybird IMMERSIT on Kickstarter. Really exciting and locking forward next level of immersion.
