The shit dad's do when mom's arnt home

"It's not scary for me" famous last words haha

I love how the middle one goes straight for the controller when dad walks away.

I just happened to see this. Loved it. Good job dad and his test pilot.

The kid may not be scared but the dad almost sh!t himself when that strap came loose…

awesome build, I love stumbling across DIYs like this.

"That wasn't scary" 10 seconds later; "that was scary" Loo 😆

that's really cool, a VR headset and some roller coaster footage that would be a blast.

Kudos! to your test pilots!

Great dad, great builder, amazing !!!! 😍😍😍😍😍👍👍👍👍👍

I wish I had the balls to do that with my kids. Good go man!

This is awesome. Have you introduced the eject button yet?

Good notes. Good notes. 😂

I thought he had strapped her to a chair because she was screaming "I WORKED TEN HOURS! ALL I WANT IS WINGSTOP!"

Who was to know that the $.25 rides outside the grocery store, an elephant, a camel, or a horse would be a fond memory in the future we live in today. Mechanical bull kid trainer.

That's awesome!

Awesome build

Hey nice work! By any chance where did you find the tubes and the motor for them?

They were all on Amazon. Search 24V linear actuator, there are loads of options. I think I went with the longest and the fastest.

very cool!

The little girl went for the remote control at the very end……and then the video stopped 😂👍👍👍

Hi, what type of joint did you use in the mobile platform??

@nathanslade2376

The joint was a cheap "rotatable universal steering shaft U joint coupler" from amazon.

Absolutely amazing dad(Us) haha

Imagine having a kid so you can build a diy motion simulator

What speed do the motors go at and what did you use to program it?

@nathanslade2376

I used an Arduino Uno so it's all done in C with Arduino IDE. I can't remember the speed of the motors, definitely not fast enough to feel realistic, but fast enough to entertain kids. They're 24V actuators, but you can often run them at 150% voltage for increased speed at the expense of life. So I ran them at higher voltage and they moved faster but also fried faster. Not ideal.

that was awesome lol

OMG this dad is dangerous LOL

Where do I by the parts to make one

dude i need one for my vr, need it to be able to play it with the games they have one for $2K and i need to diy one for around $600

@nathanslade2376

Good luck with that. This one was just under $200 but it's nowhere near fast enough to respond to video games. $2k is probably about what you'll need for a good one.

Man you have to say how did you do this...... I'll start building one once you say it

@nathanslade2376

Arduino Uno + a bunch of relays + cheap linear actuators + cheap power supply + a bunch of 2x4 lumber. There are much better ways to do it and lots of information out there on the internet.

LOL,, looks like me.. Protobuilding projects while babysitting..

Hi man, How much weight can those actuators hold?

@nathanslade2376

3 жыл бұрын

Not much, I think 50-60lbs or so each, and obviously the load affects the speed. I wasn't looking to move big heavy adults, so I went more for actuator speed than load handling.

Hi, I'd like to reproduce such a system for one of my robotics projects, and would like to know if you could provide me your Arduino code if you keep it, to guide me in this project ? Nice work

Those ac current if not properly cased will be lethal

Arduino Uno 5V relays (I used a custom PCB to stack these on the Arduino) Analog joystick (MUST be analog) Linear actuators (faster is better) Power supply for actuators (I used 32V on 24V actuators which increases speed but shortens lifespan) Rotating couplers 2x4 lumber cut and assembled in whatever shape you choose Willing test subject (make sure they are SECURELY FASTENED or you'll never hear the end of it) Also a degree in engineering isn't required, but it sure helps.

The motor is "BEMONOC 12Vdc Stroke 300mm 12" Force 300N Linear Actuator Motor Fast Speed Speed 30mm/sec" from Amazon. Not the best choice as it was slow and not very powerful, plus there is no feedback, but it was good for learning.

Pretty cool. The little girl looked very safe, except I worried about her legs, but then they are probably stronger than the wood frame...
