This is my first time to the forum, so forgive any mistakes. Anyway, I've been a simmer since working with BAO (MSFS) in the late 1980s. I have XP12 and I want to take two DataRefs (roll and pitch) from Data Output, run them through a board and send commands to four electric actuators. The actuators are attached to four legs of a chair, which is supported by a large spring (suspension coil from a small car). In theory, it works. My goal is not to build a full-motion cockpit, it is simply to give a dynamic feel to turbulence (which XP12 excels at).

The circuitry and programming involved is outside my realm of working knowledge. Anybody interested in seeing if this can be put together?
