Thanks for watching, it is amazing how many people miss that and ask me about it when it is in the video. But I get it, we all are busy and don't like to watch all the way to the end. I'm glad you did.
I have done this mod as well On my H3 and the improvement was night and day when it comes to immersion. Great video and really glad to hear DoF fixed this already
Man you are not kidding... I can't believe how great my H6 feels now with the mod. Don't know why I waited so long to do it. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
For sure, again I didn't come up with the fix (another big Thank You to Klaus Schmidinger), but was happy to put it in a form people could easily digest. I agree on the soldering... I can do it but it can be nerve wracking, especially on small circuit boards. Thanks for watching.
Although i dont have the DOF rig, i have to say this was an epic video and i watched it from start to finish. This is what makes our community so good, the information we can share helps make our hobbie so much better for everyone. Top notch as always mate 😊
Thanks buddy, not quite as good of production value as your videos have but I do what I can. Appreciate you stopping by as always and looking forward to seeing what motion adventure you take us on next on your channel!
@GYGOtv mate you couldn't be further from the truth, your videos are always brilliant 👌. Was actually super cool seeing inside the electronics of your DOF.
@@LimitlessHorizonVRSimrigs Thanks for the kind words, I'm a one man show, and as you know a lot of work goes into producing one of these. Always rewarding to hear people appreciate what I do over here.
Great fix and video my brother still patiently waiting for my H3 to H6 upgrade kit with no cogging along with the hardware for mounting the new H3 motors with the break encoders and I think I’m going to need the kit for one of my boxes for the break encoders upgrade. So hopefully dof reality will make it happen. And hope to hear something soon.
Man you are going to LOVE 6 Degrees of Freedom on the motion... I've been playing a lot of Elite Dangerous lately and it is so awesome to have the movements that sim creates. Let me know how you like it once you are up and running, and as always thanks for watching!
@@richardPalmisano Last I heard, they were expecting new "no-cog" motors soon. I remember the wait when I ordered mine... it was worse than waiting for Christmas!
@ well do you think they will announce it or have a video about it so I will know and then purchase it. I sure. Hope so have a great day my friend and thanks for responding back to me always appreciated.
@@richardPalmisano Don't really know, I'd say contact them again and see if you can get an "Official" answer. I'll try to get Igor on the channel once we know this stuff is available.
Wow, I didn't realize it could be THAT bad. Glad there was this simple fix to take care of that issue... that would be annoying for sure. Appreciate the comment.
@GYGOtv I wonder if it's a combination with having the emergency stop button installed. With it installed I can't turn on the rig without the USB being unplugged first
@@TommyVR Well that should be easy enough to test. Just unplug the E-Stop from the Control Boxes and see if it works... E-Stop does not need to be plugged in for the DOF Rigs to operate. Of course, maybe the E-Stop button is just accidently pressed? I've done that in the past too. Good Luck.
@@TommyVR Weird, must be a faulty E-Stop? Obviously first make sure the button isn't depressed accidentally, then maybe look at the button's wiring to see if there is anything shorting out. The way they work is when they "close" they turn off the motion so a short would cause that too. Good luck.
H6 will handle most home use. The only reason you would want a P6 is if you are operating it 8 hours a day/ 7 days a week. Or if you plan to put a lot of weight on it, the P motors can handle a little more. You can see my explanation here if you are interested in more info. ua-cam.com/video/-Di96UxJzuc/v-deo.html Thanks for watching.
If you have the SRS Premium Account, you can emulate pitch, roll and yaw with the "Joystick" setting under the "Setup" tab. I have to do this with Star Wars Squadrons. Not as good as having telemetry, but better than no motion at all. Hope it works with your game.
@@Glider324 Yes, according to DOF, all new units have this already installed. They started putting them in units this past August. Thanks for the question.
If it is older than August of this year, you probably don't have the fix. They just started adding this in August. Now if you don't notice any weird movements then you might not need to worry about it either. BUT the fix is pretty easy and pretty affordable so why not. Thanks for the question.
@@shananpetherick1825 I have no idea. If you are on the Facebook DOF Builder's Group, you could ask there. I'm sure somebody would know. Sorry I can't help more but don't want to give you bad advice on this one.
11:05 - This issue has been addressed by DOF - Thanks for the clarification! Glad I watched the whole video! Great job.

Nice little DIY fix Mark and avoiding having to solder components which many can find intimidating.

Hey I had 2 motors that would turn off after crashing my buggy in bmg drive. The fix you are showing in this video fixed that problem as well!
That is awesome, glad it worked well for you too. I just climbed out of my rig and can't believe the difference it makes! Appreciate the comment.
Very interesting and perfectly explained 👍 thank you very much for this information.
@@_zeranom Thanks for watching, appreciate the kind words.
thanks for this... i've been holding off on it, but with your video guide, it looks very simple to do.
It was super simple and very affordable. Just do it, SOOOOOOO worth it! Thanks for watching.

I'll be using this to apply the diodes to my H3. Thanks Mark!
@@jeffweaver7199 Well if you have any questions, you know where to find me. Thanks for watching buddy,
Cheap fix. Thank you Mark :)

I had this issue but more severe that it even shut off the rig so had reboot it to work. The diode fixed the issue

Considering purchasing a DOF Reality setup. Would you recommend the H6 or the P6 for flight simming?
H6 will handle most home use. The only reason you would want a P6 is if you are operating it 8 hours a day/ 7 days a week. Or if you plan to put a lot of weight on it, the P motors can handle a little more. You can see my explanation here if you are interested in more info. ua-cam.com/video/-Di96UxJzuc/v-deo.html Thanks for watching.
Is this only an issue with H6 or P6? I have a H2 i got last summer.
Hey i just started playing sledders, it's fun but no motion. Do you know of a way to add motion to a non motion game?
If you have the SRS Premium Account, you can emulate pitch, roll and yaw with the "Joystick" setting under the "Setup" tab. I have to do this with Star Wars Squadrons. Not as good as having telemetry, but better than no motion at all. Hope it works with your game.
I got a P6 in Dec. 2023. Would this mod be necessary? Great video, btw!
@@hanskrohn Probably, unless you aren't feeling the rebounding issue. They got added to the stock boxes this past August. Simple to do if you need it.
Is this mod standard when you buy the rig up front?
@@Glider324 Yes, according to DOF, all new units have this already installed. They started putting them in units this past August. Thanks for the question.
Any word on Black Friday sales for DOF Reality?
Are you signed up on their email list? That will be the best way to find out first.
@@GYGOtv Just signed up
@@JM1701ABCD Congrats, hopefully some good deals coming this year!
How do I know if I can fit this to mine ? I have the model I think after yours
