    Been looking at that too. Seems a very good system for the money.

    Would be better to have the screens mounted on the motion rig as well.

    Generally people don't as it's thought the vibration would damage the screens. Not sure how much truth there is in that though....

    Yeah perhaps your right. Although, when the screen is mounted on the floor, it will be a strange feeling I guess. You move a lot but the car and world a lot less.

    I think it's a case of keeping the motion quite subtle and also having a bit of cockpit movement in game rather than totally static. The brain is pretty good at filling in the gaps.....

    Yeah that is correct indeed. I have A butt-Kicker mounted on my Rig. Just one underneath the center of my seat. Even a simple vibrate from this device does already something with the immersion. So a gentle movement made bij a motion rig will just add something extra to the immersion.

    When you are driving your car in reality is your view shaking when driving on rough surface?

    No but the car does. When you see the interior/dashboard of the car stay level but you are shaking etc then I can imagine that you’re brain have to adapt to that unnatural behaviour just lie it does when racing in VR.. :D
    It won’t keep me from buying :)
