Complete the model design and verfication, begin to design the real platform. This the first basic design rendering picture.

I'm busy with gathering information on building (eventually) my ow 6dof platform. I just got the Controller from thanos and at this moment i'm busy with making a demo/prototype with servo's. I see all nice designes coming by all around but no solid or absolute numbers (no offence to anybody). Is there a calculation sheet or something similair that can give me the right numbers to make my mini prototype. Eventually i intent to use these calculations for the bigger platform. I did use the pictures in the "documentation and tools" dir and use them as a bases to setup the servo's. Or are there designes available in SchetchUp format or others (like the one showed by capacitor) Sorry if i'm cross posting...

Hi, Snafky, You can get bff config file to read the parameter. there are some config file the the "documentation and tools" dir

You're 3d designed look really good! I'll probeble use sketchup for the the stuff that i (probable) will design in pc first. Do have this design done on the same software or are you on something more pro (like autocat?)

Do have this design done on the same software or are you on something more pro (like autocat?) Thank you! The software I use is SolidWorks, I recommand you to use it. This software is very professsional and powerful, but easy to learn. It just take me 8 hours to learn. I only have Sketchup base before I begin to learn SolidWorks.

First let me say I would agree with snafky...Your renderings are very nicely done and being done in SoildWorks means you can translate it to a blueprint without a problem. Snafky....hopefully you will take this the right way. You really can't use sketchup or blender or software like that to make useable dimensions. They are really not design for such things meaning they do not provide enough accuracy.

These tips are the things i need :-) I will try to see if solidworks is something for me hopefully being able to design and make the same design :-) If you are willing to share ( capacitor ) i would not object ( wink wink ;-)) I'll continue my search for info en knowledge and continue my mini build of my mini sim first

I'm downloading "autodesk inventor 2016" now so i think that should be similair? Still have to learn the stuff (if i ever do), just making sure before i (perhaps) buy ;-)

I have used Autodesk Inventor and it's just as good. In someways it's better. It's easier to add fixed and rotation points so you can easily test for clearance problems.

Update I am using a 3D model, according to the size to design the up frame. unfortunraly, the Girl 's weight is similar to me, 82kg, but the height is only 162cm, what a fat girl!(in fact the density is too high ) Her upper body length is ok, but the leg is too short I gonna change a model...

Your model looks amazing.
Can I ask why use timing belt for the sensor? What sensor you are planing to use? If you are using 180 degrees sensor you can attach it directly on the secondary output of the gearbox!
Thanks Thanos

If you are using 180 degrees sensor you can attach it directly on the secondary output of the gearbox! Thanks Thanos Thank you Thanos. The timing belt solution is from bfg10k suggestion, sensor still be BI 6127. He told me according to his experience, if we attach sensor directly on the gearbox, it is easy to broke the sensor. senor require precise running, once the axis of sensor and the bearbox is not good enough, it will be destroyed. Cause the axis problem, he destroy 5 sensors, and once the sensor be broken, the platform will be very danguous. I am not veryified the solution, but that sounds reasonalbe. What is your suggestion? In fact, up to now, I have not seen anyone but bfg10k use the timing belt. Do they have same chanllenge about the sensor broken? Suppose they have, do they have any tips to work out it?
