Unlike traditional fixed or 2-axis setups, the H4 adds Heave to its Pitch, Roll, and Yaw axes - meaning you physically feel vertical G-forces, turbulence, acceleration changes, and altitude drops through your entire body. Built on DOF Reality's decade-plus of experience developing affordable professional-grade motion simulators, the H4 brings commercial flight sim realism into a compact, home-friendly footprint without sacrificing performance.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nConstructed from high-strength European commercial-grade steel, the H4 platform moves your seat, flight controls, and pedals together as a single unified unit, delivering accurate force feedback through your body's pressure points rather than just visual cues. It integrates seamlessly with all major flight sim titles - from Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and DCS World to X-Plane 12 and IL-2 Sturmovik - as well as all major VR headsets. Whether you're a seasoned flight simmer, a helicopter enthusiast, or a racing sim fan looking for the most immersive at-home experience available, the H4 Hero is the platform that bridges the gap between home setup and professional-grade simulation.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrue 4-Axis Motion (4 DOF):\u003c\/strong\u003e Full Pitch, Roll, Yaw\/Rear Traction, and Heave - the only at-home simulator with all four axes, including vertical G-force sensation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeave Axis:\u003c\/strong\u003e Feel turbulence, road bumps, jumps, and vertical acceleration changes with high physical precision - something 3-axis platforms cannot replicate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e20-Degree Range of Motion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wide motion envelope at 20 degrees on all axes for convincing tilt, bank, and yaw simulation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e50 cm\/s Motion Speed (86 deg\/s):\u003c\/strong\u003e Fast actuator response ensures motion cues are delivered in real-time sync with your sim software.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e25 Nm Torque:\u003c\/strong\u003e Powerful integrated motors deliver strong, precise movement even under load.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e440 lb \/ 200 kg Pilot Weight Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports a wide range of users with commercial-grade structural integrity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompact 3 x 5.2 ft Floor Footprint:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fits in home sim rooms, garages, and dedicated spaces without sacrificing motion performance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Strength European Steel Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Commercial-grade metal profiles engineered for long-term durability and daily use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlug-and-Play Ready:\u003c\/strong\u003e Includes integrated power drive motors, 100-240V control unit with USB, and SimRacingStudio software license - ready to connect and run.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUniversal Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Works with all major VR headsets, flight sticks, HOTAS setups, racing wheels, pedals, and yoke controllers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1-Year Full Warranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Covered by DOF Reality's full one-year manufacturer warranty, with upgrade path to H6 available.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Games:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024\/2020, DCS World, X-Plane 10\/11\/12, IL-2 Sturmovik, War Thunder (planes), Elite Dangerous, Star Wars: Squadrons, Prepar3D, and many more.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eShipping\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShips free!

The addition of Heave makes the H4 feel categorically different from any 3-axis setup: you don't just see turbulence, you feel it hit your seat and push into your back. Built from commercial-grade European steel and developed by a company with over a decade of motion simulator expertise, this platform is engineered to hold up through years of daily use without losing precision or reliability.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nWith its compact footprint, universal compatibility, and plug-and-play design, the H4 fits naturally into any dedicated sim space and works with your existing VR headset, HOTAS, and flight controls right out of the box. The SimRacingStudio license is included, so you're up and flying faster than you'd expect. For anyone who has ever wanted to feel what it's really like to bank into a turn, drop into a valley, or push through turbulence - the H4 Hero is the at-home platform that makes it real.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eView Product Specs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDegrees of Freedom\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4 DOF (Pitch, Roll, Yaw\/Rear Traction, Heave)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFull Platform Motion\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRange of Motion\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 degrees\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpeed\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 cm\/s (86 deg\/s)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTorque\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25 Nm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAcceleration\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.7G Translational \/ 0.5G Lateral\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1000 Watt (peak)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFloor Footprint\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 x 5.2 ft \/ 100 x 150 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePlatform Height\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 ft \/ 60 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCommercial-grade European steel profiles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMax Pilot Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e440 lbs \/ 200 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShipping Box 1\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e78 lb (37 x 15 x 11 in) \/ 35 kg (94 x 38 x 28 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShipping Box 2\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e97 lb (32 x 24 x 10 in) \/ 44 kg (80 x 60 x 25 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower Input\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100-240V with USB control unit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAssembly Required\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes - tools included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWarranty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 year full warranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eUpgradable\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes - upgradable to H6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eManuals \u0026amp; Guides\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1724\/7681\/files\/HTCMotionCancellation_dfa48913-2ab8-4940-ac6c-d818e9ed9a78.pdf?v=1784835002\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"HTC VR Motion Cancellation Guide\"\u003eHTC VR Motion Cancellation Guide\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1724\/7681\/files\/OpenVR_40bf7952-f3c3-40b8-b0cf-4b340aa42065.pdf?v=1784835005\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"OpenVR Motion Compensation Setup Guide\"\u003eOpenVR Motion Compensation Setup Guide\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat is the difference between the H4 and the H3?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eThe H4 adds a fourth axis called Heave to the H3's three axes (Pitch, Roll, Yaw). Heave simulates vertical motion - think turbulence, bumps, jumps, and vertical G-forces. The H4 also uses a more powerful 1000W peak motor system versus the H3's 750W.
