=======Donation shop======= While it's perfectly possible to build the Simchair from parts and hardware components available at your place, or aliexpress, or eBay, or wherever, if you like what I do and want to support the effort - I ask you to consider buying something from me (or making a [[https://www.paypal.com/donate/?token=tY6TCJVN8qwfreQi_6gzhlU9m_x_HVM2jAC88kBqEBGdYntUXN9fGFX_aQ0sEKz6DBzVXm&country.x=US&locale.x=EN_US|donation]]). It all started a few years ago as a fun hobby project - basically undocumented and designed in a haste - and it would have stayed this way if one guy wouldn't have asked me to make a set for him one day. I took the challenge, and worked on it to the point where I wouldn't feel ashamed for being paid for it - and he liked the result. So I started the site, and with time, the project evolved into something much bigger than I ever anticipated it could be. Since then a quite a few guys helped it to stay afloat, and I have been doing my best to design better hardware and software for it. Please consider purchasing something from the list below!

So far, I have been getting money to buy plastic, parts, and components needed to develop new hardware mostly by building the hardware, but it takes a lot of time and effort, and I have to divert those from designing to building, that means, the development is going slower than it could have been. With your support, I will be able to rely on designing things more, it will mean more fun for me, and thus more cool peripherals for you! * [[simchair4:guide_collective_head_b407|Bell407-style collective head]]............20USD **Shipping and PayPal transaction fees are not included.** //I appreciate your support greatly and will do my best to answer your questions that occur during the building process and help you with what I can! // It's also possible to order pre-assembled hardware.
