it looks really cool, however with cables wouldn't this limit the amount of "instant Gs" you can generate? it seems motion simulators based on pistons would be able to simulate better things like driving on a bumpy road and sudden changes of direction as there isn't the slack of the cable to take into account or the inertia of a large suspended mass (cables are heavy too) Still given enough space and light enough cables that support enough tension (to minimize slack) it seems this could be scaled up very cost effectively compared to other technologies to enable longer sustained accelerations |

why cables are loaded at 1.5tons. Electric motors have incredible torque and those looked like some honking big motors.
