In a coordinated turn, the aircraft yaws into the bank. The DOF Reality H3R is the platform that lets you feel it. Three axes of pitch, roll and yaw deliver the full set of motion cues flight simulation actually uses, climb under power, descent under gravity, the coordinated yaw of a properly flown turn. The R variant adds reducer gearboxes to each motor over the H3, which is the difference between motion that feels like a sim and motion that feels like flying. Flight simulation lives in the slow, smooth movements between extremes, and that is exactly what the reducer gearboxes are built for. Helicopter use, where every input is small and precise, benefits the most. Works for sim racing as a yaw/traction-loss axis without any drawbacks. The same platform DCS, MSFS and X-Plane pilots reach for when they want to feel what they are flying.
- 3DOF of motion: pitch, roll, yaw
- Reducer gearboxes on every motor for smoother slow-speed motion
- Full rig motion. Seat, controls and pedals all move together
- Tuned for flight simulation, works for sim racing without drawbacks
- Works with 100+ flight and sim racing titles (MSFS, X-Plane, DCS, iRacing, AC)
- SimRacing Studio Pro licence included
Configuration: Choose your preferred setup using the options above. Yoke, rudder pedals, throttle and monitor are sourced separately.
Console users: Add the Console Link (MagicBox) variant above if you are running without a PC.

The Axis That Changes How You Fly.
Pitch and roll move the aircraft. Yaw is what coordinates it. The DOF Reality H3R adds that third axis on top of the H2R's pitch and roll, so the coordinated yaw of a properly flown turn arrives physically rather than through instrument suggestion.
Helicopter pilots get the most from it, since every input you make in a hover is a small, precise yaw, pitch or roll movement that the reducer gearboxes smooth out exactly the way the airframe would. Three actuators, three axes, full cockpit motion, the platform most serious flight simmers settle on. Free UK mainland delivery, 2 to 3 weeks lead time.
More Than An Upgrade. A Different Way Of Flying.
The H3R isn't the H2R with an extra motor. It's a different flying experience. Once your body learns the new feedback loop, you fly tail-draggers without inheriting them, you hold helicopter hovers without drifting, you fly coordinated approaches without staring at the slip indicator.
Three reducer-gearbox motors moving the entire cockpit in sync with the aircraft, telemetry coming directly from MSFS, X-Plane, DCS and 100+ flight titles. SimRacing Studio Pro licence included. Setup around 2 hours with tools supplied. Works for sim racing as a yaw or traction-loss axis without drawbacks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will my existing cockpit fit on the platform?
The DOF Reality platforms are designed to be used with the DOF Reality supplied cockpit only. Unlike some motion platforms, they do not have a universal top plate that accepts third party rigs. If you are planning to use a DOF Reality platform, your seat, wheelbase, pedals and monitors will need to be mounted onto the DOF Reality cockpit that comes with the unit. Contact us before ordering if you have any questions about your specific setup.
How long does delivery take?
DOF Reality platforms ship from Poland in batches every two weeks. Please allow 2 to 3 weeks from order to delivery. We will keep you updated throughout.
What software do I need?
SimRacing Studio Pro is included with every platform and handles the motion configuration for over 100 titles including iRacing, Assetto Corsa Competizione, F1, Gran Turismo and more. You download it, connect your game and the platform responds to live telemetry automatically.
Does it work with PlayStation and Xbox?
The platforms are compatible with PC natively. A Console Link add-on is available separately for PlayStation and Xbox compatibility.
What is the noise level like?
24dBA during operation which is roughly equivalent to a quiet fan. The motors are electric and virtually silent. Most customers describe it as quieter than they expected.
What is not included in the box?
Your seat, steering wheel, pedals, monitor and PC are not included when you purchase the Platform Only. The platform ships as a complete unit ready for assembly and all tools needed are included in the box. - There is an option to add a seat and more when choosing product options.
Can I upgrade from an H2 to an H3 later?
DOF Reality platforms are standalone units and are not modular upgrades. If you are undecided between models, contact us before ordering and we can advise on which platform suits your budget and the type of racing you do most.
Is the H3R Right For You?
Best For
- Serious flight simmers running MSFS, X-Plane or DCS who want proper three-axis motion
- Helicopter pilots - yaw and pitch with reducer gearboxes match what the airframe actually does in a hover
- Buyers stepping up from a static yoke setup who want motion that genuinely changes how they fly
- Cross-discipline users who fly and race and want one platform that handles both well
Consider the H4R Instead If
- Your budget can stretch to £4,169
- You want surge - the physical push of thrust and the float of throttle reduction through the seat
- You fly heavier aircraft or sims where engine thrust dynamics matter (commercial jets, military fast jets)
- You want the most complete DOF flight platform short of the H6R flagship
Not Recommended For
- Buyers on a strict £2,800 ceiling - the H2R below is the right entry point
- Casual flight simmers - the third axis benefit is felt most by simmers actively pushing realism
- Race-only users - the H3 is a better-suited variant for the same money
