Apparently there is an update to the product that requires more steps to accomplish removing the faceplate. Could there be an update to this video for that?
if you have the newer version, you will need to remove the 5 rotary knobs with the same size 1.5mm hex as the funky switches. There will be two connections near the top to the face and then you will need to remove the daughter board to put in the bolts.
250€ add for each wheel…. Why isn’t build that expensive part stays on base, and cheap wheel side You buy for extra wheels? 250€ for every wheel that’s insane!!!
Just bought a GSI FPE v1. Its here and gotta say im pumped to use it. Just waiting on parts. I have a AH50 on order from you guys along with an order of captive screws to attach the from the AH50 to the Sim lab Xero play Quick release( which seems to have threaded holes on the wheel side of the adaptor). I dont need any other hardware since the AH50 comes with hardware to attach to the wheel, and i ordered separate the captive screws to go from hub to quick release?
Wow, so you're adding a few extra inches of space between the wheel and the direct drive base no matter what wheel you're using? That has a huge knock on FOV. Is there no way to mount the Podium hub directly to the wheel?
Do I lose the warranty by opening the steering wheel to connect the QR? The website says that you cannot open the steering wheel. This is exactly what I'm asking about the X-29 model.
Thanks for this! I didn't realize how easy it is to modify the buttons. I've been having a hard time hitting the order button on an item of this price without getting it right, now i know i can change my mind 😅
Hey Mr Gomez. This is a long shot but may a have one of your wheels that youre not using or selling? Youre wheels are really great but its kind of hard to get one. If you can help it will be great (:
Hi, so I've purchased a second wheel with the 50mm already attached, I've not received it yet but I looks like he's attached it with the threaded side down on the wheel, will it be damaged? Or will it just be ok to turn it back over and re attach. Thanks
Thank you for this video. I have just successfully joined my Hyper P1 with Fanatec Hub. When I connect it all up, how do I select hi torque? This would have normally been done via a switch combination on my old Fanatec wheel? Thank you.
Got an X-29 for the Asetek QR, it's brilliant. Only thing annoying me is the cable wrapped around. It would be amazing if you could offer a super short few centimeter version of your cable, so no wrap around is required. I heard you are working on a no cable version to directly integrate the QR, but without it being available through European resellers that wouldn't be an option due to tariffs etc
We only sell both halves together. The wheel half is about 90% of the cost. You could repurpose the base side and make a place on your rig or wall to store the unused wheels.
you need this with EVERY wheel that is on a fanatec base. FFB will not work without. you can look at Sim Racing Machines.. they make a cheaper and open system for it.
Are there any plans to add a simagic / moza / nrg style qr as a factory install option? I know I just watched you do it but opening the wheel up really freaks me out.
There are no plans at the moment, but we just created a video on how to mount those types of QRs from the outside using one of our hubs! Check it out: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Gwb9b8Odgx8.html
This system its for HIGH TORQUE wheels. 12, 15, 25nm. But of course, any wheels with holes for 70mm screws 6 holes will be compatible without problems. So, the answer is YES. 
Guys, I'm really considering this wheel that looks amazing, but you need to think it a bit more future proof when designing it, extra paddles upgrade on CSX is just plug and play you don't need to open half of the wheel to make them work :( I'm definitely looking for a wired QR so we get rid of the big connector on back
yup it's not for everyone. 99.5% of customers buy the 6 paddle option anyways. For a wired QR you can think to couple your wheel with a Asetek solution. Happy racing! 🙂
@@gomezsimindustries thank you very much for your fair and fast answer, could you tell me more about asetek solution? Do I need asetek DD ? Or do you mention a QR system from them ?
@@TheSoldiersid3 yes you will indeed need there base to run there QR. Here is a link showing how it works ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TTqzLekO7Uw.html
Yes, absolutely! When purchasing the wheel itself, there will be an option on the product page that lets you purchase the Podium Hub directly from us, as well as a checkbox to let us know to install it for you. =)
According to your website it has 310mm diameter. As it's called "Formula Pro Elite" I would expect a smaller diameter. Lewis Hamilton uses a 280mm rim, as well as Ferrari F1 as far as I know. Does anyone know about Formula 2 or 3?
I'm really looking at this wheel as upgrade over my cube controls sport wheel. Send one to SRG for review and if all goes well I'd order. I know a lot of people look to SRG before buying any products related to sim racing so it would probably be a huge boost for your company.
