Conclusions:
The new actuators are more silent and do not get as warm as the older ones due to better bungee balancing.
Thanos board seems to work well now with the 2.0 software. (I like it more than the kangaroos, because it don't need a homing-procedure during startup. I also think the movement of the platform is little bit "smoother" than with the kangaroos. Also support in the motion-platform enviroment is better for the thanos board than for the kangaroos. But the Thanos-Board is more expensive than the kangaroos)
Did some tests with flyinside fsx. Immersion and performance is great. Please support this kickstarter-project.
One of the upper connector between actuator and upper triangle broke. I did a redesign of the upper actuator end to provide more stability.
I did a resize of the upper triangle to be able to install the saitek stuff.
The Platform is a little too small for the saitek pedals to fit, perhaps a resize of the base and upper triangle would be better.
The integrated Sensors of the DK2 seems to get confused by the movement of the platform, which causes the display to drift away from time to time. Not much, but noticeable.
DK2/P3D immersion is great. Its really fun to fly with this setup. However, you can still see the pixels of the FullHD-DK2, so i am looking forward for the consumer version. But for a 4K/8K Setup more computation power is needed.
use short cables. Long cables can cause vibrations.
use chain tensioners. Chain can get loose from time to time.
fix bearings. They can get loose from time to time.
when you start limit the motor power to eg. 50% power
use sabertooth/kangaroo exponential response
use no analog devices, as they could pick up noise
