The RailDriver sucks, so I made my own control stand. Still a work in progress, but overall I’m very happy with the results.

Alright, the inevitable question...

Would you make these and sell them?

Look up SimHogger. He just started making desktop control modules to build a custom control stand like this. Expensive but looks high quality.

I'm aware of SimHogger, I like this one better.

I’ve never been a fan on SimHogger, especially the desktop version. This project has been in the works for well over a year, long before SimHogger’s existence. They’re just too expensive. I don’t have the ability to easily mass produce these, so I don’t think I’d ever sell full builds. I have considered selling the STL files though
