FlyPT Setup

For the best motion experience, we recommend using the Reactor Motion System with SimHub. In our opinion, SimHub provides the best features and overall user experience.

If you prefer to use flyPT Mover, follow this guide to set up your Reactor Motion System with flyPT Mover 3.5.*.

1. Requirements #

  1. Download the latest flyPT Mover 3.5.* release from the official flyPT website.
  2. Install flyPT Mover.

Important: Before enabling motion, make sure your actuators are connected to the correct controller outputs. The pre-configured flyPT profile uses the following axis assignment:

  1. Front Left Actuator
  2. Rear Left Actuator
  3. Rear Right Actuator
  4. Front Right Actuator
  5. /6. Seatbelt Tensioner

If the actuators are connected differently, the platform will move unsafely

7 Adjusting Motion #

You can fine-tune the motion behavior in the Pose settings.

Be careful when adjusting the Range and Intensity values. Increase them gradually and test the result after each change. Settings that are too high can cause the platform to move violently.

flyPT Mover is highly customizable and gives you full control over the motion profile. However, it can also be configured in ways that produce unrealistic or undesirable motion. We recommend making only small adjustments and testing them one step at a time.
