ImSim is one of the most reliable motion simulators in the market, as it was designed to withstand intensive commercial use. Some of our units ran over 25 000 racing experiences each. That represents about 4000 hours of use per simulator, at full power, over 3 years.
These simulators did these impressive numbers without issues or any downtime, and they’re still running as smoothly as when they left our factory.
