A motion simulator includes a base frame and a pitch frame pivotally mounted to the drive frame. Opposite ends of a drive coupling is coupled to ends of the pitch frame for tilting the pitch frame fore and aft. A cradle for supporting an occupant capsule is rotatably mounting to the pitch frame for rotation on an axis orthogonal to the pivot axis of the pitch frame. A roll motor is mounted to the pitch frame and coupled to one of the axles associated with the cradle for rotating the cradle and capsule. Signals from control circuits within the capsule are supplied to an operator console through a slip ring connection to allow 360 degree rotation.
