The Thermaltake GM5 3DOF is a motion system that adds three degrees of freedom to your cockpit —pitch, roll and heave— with up to 300 kg of payload, under 5 ms of latency and control through the SimTools software, for both sim racing and flight simulation.

Designed to turn a static rig into a dynamic platform, the GM5 pairs 100 mm actuators with a 1000 Hz control frequency to reproduce bumps, braking, corners and landings in real time. At just 27 kg it is easy to install and move, and it includes an emergency stop button and a rest mode that lowers the actuators. It integrates directly with the Thermaltake GR500 and GF500 cockpits. 220V version.

Key features of the Thermaltake GM5 3DOF

3-axis motion (3DOF): pitch, roll and heave to simulate tilting and vertical movement for total immersion.
High speed and acceleration: up to 250 mm/s and 0.4 G to convey the sensations of the track or the sky.
Ultra-low latency (<5 ms) and a 1000 Hz control frequency for real-time response.
0–100 Hz vibration range that reproduces uneven terrain, kerbs and runways.
SimTools control: full adjustment of the dynamic behaviour and compatibility with a wide range of simulation games.
Light and safe: 27 kg, emergency stop and rest mode, with up to 300 kg of payload.

Frequently asked questions about the Thermaltake GM5 3DOF

Which axes does the GM5 move on?

The GM5 offers three degrees of freedom (3DOF): pitch (forward/backward), roll (side to side) and heave (vertical movement), with 100 mm actuators, up to 250 mm/s and 0.4 G of acceleration.

How much weight does the GM5 support?

It supports a maximum payload of 300 kg (661 lbs), enough for a full cockpit with seat, wheel or flight hardware, base and accessories. The system itself weighs 27 kg.

Which cockpits is it compatible with?

It integrates directly with the Thermaltake GR500 and GF500 cockpits and can be adapted to other rigs that support its payload and dimensions.

What software does it need?

The GM5 is controlled with SimTools (licence required), which adjusts the dynamic behaviour and offers compatibility with many simulation games. It connects via USB and Ethernet.

Does it work for both sim racing and flight simulation?

Yes. The 3-axis motion and the 0–100 Hz vibration range reproduce both track sensations (bumps, braking, corners) and flight ones (turbulence, landings).
