See each one in your sim room.
The planner draws each unit to scale with your room and your swing: where it sits, and whether your swing clears the ceiling, walls and screen. Put in your room once, then switch units in the planner to compare.

Better for LaunchBox
- Recreational Player
Course play works out of the box — E6 Connect Home and 27 courses are included, on PC or iPad, with no marked balls to fuss with. A tidy, low-friction way into real course rounds.
- Space-Constrained
At 2.7 lb it sets up and packs away in minutes, so it suits a room that isn't a permanent sim or a setup that travels.
Build your simulator in two minutes
Five questions. One tailored build with retailer links.
We ask about your budget, your room, and how you’ll use it. We return a complete build — launch monitor, mat, enclosure, projector, software, PC — with the reasoning behind every pick and the alternatives we considered.
