I think this is an engine housing, but would like confirmation. Thanks.

Stephanie Mitchel: 11:02am Nov 3, 2006: If it helps - I've found many mentions of 'engines' and none of 'motors' in a NASA diagram and document on flight simulators.
Erklärung: Since you appear to be dealing with flight simulators, do you not think this might not refer to the control cubicles (containing all the switches, relays, and electronics) for electric motors that make the simulator pitch and roll, simulate acceleration, etc.?
That said, I don't know to what extent motors are used for this, and how much is hydraulic ...

Even if hydraulic, you still need motors to drive the pumps to provide the pressure, I guess.
