Amazing rig with jaw-dropping performance. To be fair, it's my first 3DOF experience, so I don't have much to compare it to, but thank god I have seatbelts on my rig, or I would suing HN Motion for causing a car accident. A++. (They would have got A+++, but the one page instructions are about 19 pages too short...)

This is my second V2 motion platform and after the results from the first one, I'm going to place this V2 kit under a real Light Sport Jabiru LSA 55 Aircraft which i am turning into a simulator, i will post phots in the next couple of weeks on the HN Motion site.

Fantastic kit, Hugo from HN motion went over and above to fix a issue I had at the start and now the motion kit is working great.

Price for value of the specs of the product can not be beat.

Love it and would not race without it again.

I'm thrilled. Quality and value for money, as well as the support are top. The delivery is also super fast. I ordered from Germany. The assembly and installation was also easy for me. No latency or any issues. The actuators are brutally powerful and the volume is that of a seatmover. Keep it up guys... Thumbs up.

I ordered the V-1 which was on back order and it about four weeks for me to receive all the parts in the US which was fine. It is considered a DIY set up but the process is very straightforward I had no previous experience with actuators or servo motors and I managed to figure it out. The team at HN motion was helpful and was quick to answer any of my questions. I was able to mount the actuators to a track Racer TR8 Pro V2 with the Track Racer motion platform. The actuators slipped right into the support brackets like it was made for it. It was a snug enough to where you had to tap it in but not so tight to where you had to force it in. The platform is designed for the D box actuators but with some easy modifications This setup can be adapted to support the HN Motion actuators. The HN Motion V1 Actuators bolt in from the bottom so by Marking and drilling holes in the bottom of the TR platform The actuators can easily be installed (I put three bolts through each actuator into the bottom of the platform). I would definitely recommend using some lock washers and some Loctite but the whole process was pretty straightforward. If you own this rig or a similar one most of the work is actually in assembling the platform and mounting your rig to it. The actuators came preassembled and all of the servo controllers came pre programmed and configured. The Thanos controller also comes with the latest firmware so after everything is wired up it's pretty much plug and play After configuring your settings in SIM HUB which is what I used. I honestly thought I was getting in over my head but it was all pretty straightforward in the end and the team at HN Motion was always there to help.

Great piece of kit, easy to put together, simple instructions. So far strong and reliable.

Love it works just as advertised 100%

Amazing product, amazing support!
Nothing is too much trouble for this team.
Perfect and was a dream to install and set up!

A year or so ago I saw the HN Motion web page. At the time 3k+ AU for their V1 motion sim? lol Scam. Way to cheap in comparison and I mostly forgot about it One day I finally saw a Youtube review on it and a review of the V2. I posted it up as an option for a mate jokingly and ended up watching the review to much.

A couple of conversations with Hugo later and buy now was clicked. 5k AU for the v2 but in comparison to the completion it still seemed to me to be a lot too good to be true.

5k AU is not a little money but for a motion sim that will lift not only this 130kg chunky racer but also my 160 profile rig with all the crap on it like it is nothing? I honestly I was not ruling scam out completely until I had it in my hands.

It is in my hands and is not a scam. It is some lovely chunky hardware.

I have had it for 55 days now it seems and easily a 100+ hours iRacing with the HN Motion V2. I could not be happier and while I watched lots of videos and thought I knew what I was getting into, it turns out I underestimated it.

I can report that I have had a way better experience with a 3DOF then I thought was possible. While the 3dof can't do surge or traction loss and can simulate it with pitch and roll and the BS is so good it puts a smile on my face every time.

There was a lot of tweaking in Simhub to get it just right for me but well worth it for the immersive experience. Also I can upgrade the 3dof but for now it is way better then expected.

I thought I had fun roaring across the mountain before in sim racing. Now with motion simulation the only thing I could think would be a better would be a real car and even then I think there will be problems firing that up at anytime of the day or night.

I am no expert and I have never had a motion sim before. All I can say is I have zero buyers remorse and I race more then ever. I do laps just for the pure pleasure of driving.

Of special note is that my mate who I was teasing at the start of this review is ordering his now as well and that is about the most honest review I can give.

BTW VR users. Look up Wit-Motion sensors (WT901C-485 9axis + USB adapter). Buy from the manufacturer. Cheap, about 50au to the door, takes a few weeks to arrive, beyond worth it for motion compensation.

Also I recommend the seatbelt mod. Look it up, worth it. I run 4 point harness all the time (anchored to the ground with a heavy pot plant!!) and while I thought it was a PITA to start with now it is part of the experience. Belt up, seat forward and waist belt goes tight, Motion on, shoulder belts tighten up and become active, huge grin.

It is not hard to install. Confusing at the beginning but Following the parameters and assembling instructions it is finally achieved

Hugo was a champ with every question/concern I had….. packaging and postage was lighting fast and the V1 system is awesome…. Super quiet, super neat and tidy…. Whilst a V2 would have wild, the V1 is an awesome entry point for me….. thanks so much

I only completed the install a few days ago because I was away when the kit was delivered, and I still need to spend some time dialling it in, but everything went together easily and the setup is neat - everything needed to install it was included.

I was surprised how easy it was to configure once the physical part of the installation was done; literally unplug and re-plug the Thanos4U's USB connection when Simhub was listening to set the COM port, and away it went.

I have never used another motion system, but the specs place the HN Motion V2 right up there with most of them on speed and response time, and in the higher end for travel and weight capacity, and it feels great.

I didn't think I could afford motion for my rig yet, until I came across this kit. Research suggested that there wasn't any point saving for longer and going for a more expensive system - all that may get you is smaller actuators and a smaller control box, but with that comes smaller travel. I like that the parts are industial quality and presumably readily available if I need to replace anything, and I'd far rather have 150mm of travel and use 50mm than be stuck with 50mm (or less) and wonder what more travel feels like and if I am missing out.

If you are looking for motion, especially if you are in Aus or (as I am) NZ, just buy this kit. There is no compromise that I have been able to identify; it really is just half the price of a lot of comparable systems for the same capability.

The HN V2 motion is excellent value for money, The Customer service is 2nd to none, it’s the best. I asked some tough questions during the purchase process and after and not once did they get angry or avoid , and they were very accommodating in my requests. I was overwhelmed when the boxes arrived but slowly opened them up and got familiar with the contents and after a week started the assembly, The cabinet rack was the hardest only because it takes time, other than that the process was very easy ,all wiring was labeled and straightforward, then after assembly, Started it up and everything just worked, the emersion is on another level. Quality is a 10 out of 10 Thank you HN Motion for a fantastic transaction and Product. Cheers.

Well made quality at an affordable price.

Awesome kit ! Great support to get it up and running ! I did have to drill the mounting brackets to oversize the bolt holes as they didn’t quite match but other than that it was easy to install and looks/works great.
