Can YAW really be felt (experianced)

Postby Fahim » Sun 28. May 2017, 16:36

I am thinking of going 3dof or higher. I have seen the 6dof platform and I think they are really brill. What I find lacking in those is the YAW (Spinning motion)

Can YAW really be felt at those slow speeds? I close my eyes and sit on a turning chair. Spin my self and really don't feel much as those normal speeds.

I wonder if it is a gimmic? I don't want to spend money making a new sim when I won't feel the effect.

I even saw a comment on youtube saying a 2dof (which I have current) with fast movements can trick the brain into feeling g-force movements. (edit: can trick the brain better than some 3dof,6dof)

So what is better. 3dof,4dof with 30-40 degrees of yaw or a static 6dof simulator.

Would be nice to get answer from folks who have been on these types of rigs. thanks very much.
