Motion explained
Which motion platform is right for you?
Each degree of freedom (DOF) is a direction the platform can move you. The more you have, the more of what the car or aircraft is doing you feel through your body.
Single axis add-ons
Belt tensioners and single axis movers add one strong cue, like the harness pulling you into the seat under braking. A low cost way to add feel, or a top-up for a full platform.
Best forAdding feel to an existing rig
Pitch and roll
Your whole rig tilts with the sim. The nose dips under braking, you lean through corners and bank in the air. The best way to start with motion.
Best forYour first motion rig, racing or flight
Adds traction loss or heave
A third axis on top of pitch and roll. Depending on the platform, either the rear steps out as you lose grip, or you feel kerbs, bumps and turbulence vertically.
Best forSerious sim racers and flyers
Adds heave
Vertical movement for kerb strikes, track texture and turbulence, plus traction loss or yaw on many platforms. The axis most people underestimate until they feel it.
Best forThe top end of most home rigs
Adds surge and yaw
Pitch, roll and heave, plus surge for the punch of acceleration and yaw for slides and oversteer. Close to full motion without going to six axes.
Best forRacers who want slides and real acceleration
Full six axis motion
Every direction at once, including surge under acceleration and sway through long corners. The most complete motion you can get.
Best forNo compromise, home or commercial
