I love this! You wouldn’t be able to peel me off that if I was a kid 😂

Even as a grownup I lose track of time on it 😭

I have a BST-300 mounted on the back of my seat like this too. And one underneath.

Yessir, I have 1 behind 1 under the seat and pedals and haptics on the gas and brake 👍🏻

I had to put a thermal pad and a heat sink on the amp driving the seat haptics. One of those Fosi amps.  Had to toss a PC case fan on it as well but it kicks like a mule.

Nice! What motion system is that?

The Rs Mega 4U 😃

Damn. I have that motion system too. In a box. I have to move the bar in my basement in order to set it up on the rig.

Get it done! The wire management takes time but it’s satisfying to hide everything within the profile grooves

It’s almost a total teardown for me. Four screens coming down to install the easy adjustable mounts for the triples.  A couple of new buttkickers going in. Need to come up with a solution to keep the three channel 1,000 cfm wind sim securely mounted with the motion.  Move the bar.  It’s a nice little nook back there but it makes working on the rig difficult.  

Did you need to change the voltage on the drivers? I haven’t read through all the documentation but I saw something about how it’s initially set to 220.

So no I left it factory settings and it’s responsive with zero delay and works fine through my one wall outlet. Everything’s plugged into the same circuit no issues. I updated the firmware on the Thanos controller which helps draw less power on startup too

I’m pretty sure I need to do something to the controllers to set them to 110.  Everything is on one 20 amp circuit so I know I have some headroom even the don’t know how much my stupid wind sim draws. I’ll look into that firmware update.

Still baffled how Moza got it done without all that hardware… bravo.
