Hey guys!

This is a project I started a few days ago. I mean to have it finished before summer 2022.

I love how it lands the wheelie at 0:18  ;D
Like someone said on Discord, I really need a little action figure on there!


The Simtools plugin for GPbikes is outdated unfortunately, so for the moment I am stuck with mgp18..
I have started looking into rewriting the plugin for UDP instead, should solve the 64-32-bit problem.
I had to try..

Cool! How's it going?
Are you running it straight from gpb export or with something like simtools in between?

I'm plannig getting data from the same output as Max use for his MAx HUD plugin. It is still in plan phase, nothing really started, but i will also start from scale model like your's

That looks really cool. I'll be following this and might take some idea from you for my motion  ;D

What do you think about adding a traction lose?

Chris_Beeves

The prototype has traction loss, it's just that motogp18 doesn't output that.

The rig will have 4 dof:
- Pitch
- Roll
- Heave
- Traction loss

Sway can be somewhat simulated, but I'm not sure how useful that effect is.

The motors and electronics just arrived and are waiting for me to pick them up at the post office.
In two weeks the design phase starts, not long now! :D

Nice! Looking forward to it. Do you have an x-sim build thread?

Chris_Beeves

Me too. Have been looking forward to this for a looooong time!

There is a thread at xsim, but not sure where I will focus on updating.. There are many places 😆
