DIY SEAT INSERT FOR SIM RACING

I have been waiting about a year now to attempt to make a custom DIY seat insert for my new sim rig. Struggling with the comfort offered by the Jeggs 'drag racing' plastic set, I've finally ordered 2 kits (4 quarts total) of A and B expanding polyurethane foam to try and make the insert.. I've never done it before but have watched a few YT videos and am confident enough that I should give it a go. I will be using my KIRKEY aluminum seat from my old 3 dof motion simulator and attempting in REAL TIME to show you what I had to do and how long it takes. I hope you enjoy the video.. I've actually been wanting to make this video ever since i purchased the KIrKEY racing seat. FYI the aluminum racing seat weighs about 15 pounds and shown on a previous video and I am attempting to make the power to weight ratio of the motion simulator more advantageous by reducing movable weight in hopes of better response from the motors..

You can use up to three motors per arduino. But you each motor needs it's own IBT-2 controller. https://www.xsimulator.net/community/...
