    For motion, I highly suggest you read Jim's site.
    http://www.jimspage.co.nz/intro.htm
    After that, sit down and draw out how much space you have to build in. Motion requires far more than most people think!

    Then, come back here to MCP.org to the Motion section of the forums and read what we have already.

    That should get you going.

    Hmmm. Control loading is interesting. I use the gas springs from loading on my Elevators, but it is not adjustable.

    Are you looking for something that electronically adjusts during different phases of flight?

    Also, on top of what Andy said, If you want 6DOF your going to be looking at big $$

    I would recommend you maybe start with 3, and work your way up. If you are really gung ho with it, the best thing to do is build a model of the system you want using servo's.

    Many video's on YOUtube showing peoples models, Better to work your issues out on 100 bucks worth of kit, then 30K of kit, if you know what I mean.

    As for the visuals, you will be limited to LCD/Plasma monitors. You won't be able to use projection. Unless you have a really large warehouse LOL.

    Hi Jean-yves and welcome to mycockpit.org,

    I suggest you put the same question in a new thread with it's own title and you will probably have more builders see it. I am unable to help with regard to motion platforms.
