Motion Plus Platform (NLR-M007)

Overview

The Next Level Racing® Motion Plus Platform is a compact full-cockpit mover that delivers immersive chassis-level motion across pitch, roll, and partial heave with one unit and full heave with two, elevating realism in racing and flight simulation setups. Engineered in Europe with advanced magnetic-encoder technology, it translates in-game telemetry into precise motion feedback such as bumps, cornering, acceleration, and gear shifts

5. Once all items in the action centre have been resolved; activate the Game Profile you would like to utilise with your Motion Platform.

FAQ:

1. What movement does the Motion Plus simulate? 
   It provides pitch, roll, and partial heave (2-DoF) motion using a single unit, with full heave achievable by adding a second unit (3-DoF). It delivers dynamic and realistic movement for both racing and flight simulation.
2. Is it plug-and-play?
   Yes, it includes the Next Level Racing Platform Manager for easy setup and calibration with many integrated racing and flight gaming titles.
3. What is the maximum support payload?
   Up to 250 kg (cockpit + user + accessories).
4. Is it VR compatible?
   Yes, it includes VR compensation via Platform Manager (VR Headway). Set-up steps can be found within Platform Manager’s Help & Tutorials section.

Troubleshooting

• Not recognized by PC: Ensure power and USB are securely connected, ensure the USB Port is clear from debris, attempt using a different USB cord. If still not recognized, please reach out to our Motion Support Team (motion.support@nextlevelracing.com).
• No Motion: Test with no Telemetry reading programs running in the background (close through Task Manager - CTRL + SHFT + ESC). If motion resumes, you will need to set-up UDP Proxy/Forwarder; steps can be found in PLATFORM MANAGER - HELP & TUTORIALS - 4th SECTION DOWN.

Inverted or Unnatural Motion: If using a Dual Set-up; please ensure that the Front and Rear Motion Plus units have been configured and assigned correctly: PLATFORM MANAGER - TOOLS and DIAGNOSTIC - SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION
