My 1st Indexer
Hi Guys have been having a nutty proffesor moment and whilst rumbling around my collection of bits and bobs For my Flight simulator project i came across this Reduction gearbox (10:1) ratior Needed 2 for the Motion control actuator but could only find one at the price i was willing to pay at the time ( bummer ) anyways saw the work you guys have done here and though maybe i could lash ( technical terminology NOT ) something togather. so this is my grand plan it will be driven by a type 23 BYG?? Hybrid stepper mootr from a seperate single axis Controller card 9 My Xylotex Controller is only 3 Axis ) and quite simply will be initially 18mm MDF Painted and sealed with and some fittings i have .. will do a full expolded view with all the elemnts soon if anyones interterested. and some pics of progress so far cheers Guys ... now all i gotta do is learn to drive it ... Oh By the way Trick one this ! is there a free program out there to create Gear / Sprocket DXF files ?

Hi,
Good to see some action in building a 4th axis. Very cool. And pretty neat that you are conceiving a Flight Simulator too. Both projects sound like a load of fun. Looking forward to seeing more on both subjects.
