Full 360 movement in this sim wont be what you will feel in space – due to no gravity. Only gravity in space is under acceleration, and you own interia in turns, tilts and breaking.

Flying upside down iwill feel exactly the same as flying normal in space. I would assume the current +/-85 degree movement is perfect for space sims, and should cover what is needed of motion.

Speed up – sim should tilt back and push you into the seat at 1G. Slowing down, it should tilt forward and have you hanging in the straps. Turns and tilts – your own intertia is what you will feel – just as in space would.

Flightsimulators – then 360 movement upside down works as you will the earth trying to pull you out of the chair. 🙂

Any thoughts? FellThree – how will you make this work the best. Different movement for flightsims and spacesims?

Space games is a must! Will ne the reason I buy FellThree – and I will buy it asap. 😀

ED sucks when it comes to telemetry data – the do not share this, and simtools plugin have to manually be mapped each time they update the game. Please go on frontier forum and add your voice in the threads about making API for telemtry available.

While I am posting, how about:

1. horizontal movement restrictions to protect the VR goggles cables from eventually snapping if e.g. racing in an oval. I suppose each bend will see the according movement of the rig, but while on the straight the rig will slowly move back into default position, so when the next bend appears we again would only see movement from the same orientation we had before the bend before, and before, and before?
2. now I won the lottery and bought TPCast, or its end of 2018 and the new CV2’s are supporting wireless – in that case I would not mind to be turned around endlessly, no VR google cable issues expected. But I guess this is where your vision goals give us a hint, that at current the cabling required to power the tactile transducers actually limits that sort of fun, right ? (motors would be on the outside so not be moved, so their power supply should not be the issue). But okay, most of us do not have wireless goggles for at least another year, and you are looking into the induction option, so perhaps we will see everything come together neatly somewhere late 2018 or 2019…

3. I have to say I am quite excited – is there any chance to experience a demo of the rig, say as a supportive Patreon ? It’d take me 8 hours one way to come over but I would seriously consider it…

4. I am sure you have already planned for it, and I am about to state painfully obvious stuff, but: when you enter Kickstarter make sure to demo it to some Youtubers out there, guys/gals like SweViver but also racing sim video bloggers have a huge impact on your target market. Just conside rthe success the Pimax team had with their 8K campaign – they frankly promise ridiculous stuff you cannot possibly take serious and that would normally have buried them, but the core experience with the 8K was actually impressive enough to get people hyped up that they may truly deliver on that part. I would not have believed it were it not for some video bloggers I believed to give their honest opinion. Then I travelled to a demo and was rather impressed too (though the demo was pretty limited so some question marks still remain). As a result I backed a Kickstarter campaign I did not even bother at carefully looking at in the beginning due to their unrealistic addition to the stretch goals of pretty much everything we wish for in terms of VR goggles. Longwinded story here, but the take-away is: people view such guys’ channels and would likely not hear of FeelThree otherwise – and even if they did, they might not believe you if you say its awesome, but if such guys confirm that, completely different story !

We have a few games coming that could benefit, watching for an SDK and interested to see where it goes.

Have you made a real prototype yet?

It looks awesome, a really great idea, good work!

Well, most people will be strapped in with a 5 point harness, but we’re not going to offer inverted movement. It means you have to have a computer inside the sphere, a way of safely closing the sphere and is just too expensive at the start. That’s not to say that this won’t change… 🙂

Cheers Vince, we’ll see if that helps….
