What projector do they use on the rig there? Can you use one of those since it seems to work OK? There is a small LED based projector available for under £500 but you'll need a high gain screen like the High Power or the Grey Wolf II, especially if you have any other light in the room. I've never seen any bulb options other than the type of lamp they come with. The other limiting factor may be the throw - I don't know if the mirror they used effectively reduced the throw of the projector or not but it's a very short throw and that would limit the range of suitable projectors.

OK, I will check spec sheets for G once i have a short list of projectors to look into....
The projector used in the Force Dynamics rig shown in the clip is a lower resolution projector which is about 3 years old - i assumed that the game had moved on a lot since then and think there must be much better, high res solutions for a lot less money. I mean, my Damn H78 cost me £3500 2 years ago- you can now get more for £2000!!
With regards to throw - I am working on the basis that I should go for a projector with a throw of around 2 metres - this would allow a positioning of the projector behind the seat and then bouce off the miror to hit the 50 inch screen. The issue will be the distance from the drivers eyes to the screen which will be a little less than this - but those figures can be played around with
So is my only real option for around £2k for a DLP 1080P screen the H80 - what are my other options at this price/spec?
