I ordered my Mevo+ a few days ago with plans to start building a set up in my garage until it gets here. At this point I am still trying to decide how to go about this. I am likely going to try to build a sim that I can break down in order to fit cars in the garage. After reading everything I can find though, I am becoming increasingly worried that the presence of some steel cabinets, shelves, and slat-wall might cause interference.
Option 1: The cabinets run along the back wall of my garage and I planned to put the simulator adjacent to the cabinets (so that I would be facing them at address). The reason for placing it here is to avoid the garage door runners/components. This seems to be the most likely solution but I'm extremely worried about interference from the steel cabinets. As of now there are also 2 2'x8' shelves and some slat wall panelling with gardening tools and a lawn mower along the left wall, but I can always move that to the right wall.
Option 2: Would actually allow for more room and likely less interference but I'm not sure how I could set it up with the presence of the garage door runners. If I was hitting away from the garage door it would likely interfere with my swing. If I set it up to hit toward the garage door, the screen would get in the way of the door opening/closing, and the rails would hang in the hitting area. This option just doesnt seem possible.
Other than the steel cabinets, 2 shelves, slat wall, and basic lawn equipment, the garage is entirely wood. Has anybody else had issues with steel cabinets causing interference? I can't find much information in where in the radar field will the items cause interference. Does anybody have an idea if this set up will be a problem, or have any better suggestions? Any input would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
