Yes, its brand new.

No, its not from XESA. We worked closely with xesa, great bunch of guys and i love their work. But it took too long to have a finished Hexapod (6-DOF).

Customer was waiting, so looked for alternative.

BIG step up. This one is from MOOG.

MOOG is one of the marketleaders in the motion platform business. They have supplied Level-D compliant motion systems for companies like CAE and FSI. We are the launch customer for this model.

And yes, you see two.....

price:  well....uhmm.....

I will be posting pictures of the project advancing overtime....

I suspect it's one of those things where if you have to ask how much, you probably can't afford it anyway. :)
