4DOF Platforms
4DOF motion platforms add heave: vertical movement you feel through the seat. In sim racing, that means kerb strikes, bumps and road texture. In flight sim, it means turbulence, the settle into a landing and the small lifts and drops that make flying feel real.
Heave is the axis most drivers underestimate until they feel it. If you want more than 3DOF, or you fly and want the full feel of the air, 4DOF is the step up. Our 4DOF range comes from DOF Reality and other specialist manufacturers, and works with all major racing and flight titles that support motion output.
Nothing matches those filters.
