DEEP DIVE with CEO André on the new Elastomer Kit | Asetek SimSports® 

We appretiate the kind words, Steve!

Thank you, Ron!

Thank You 🙏

@@mariusmaringut9338 That aren't toy like 😅

Love the Forte pedals btw, and feel like this kit will give me more versatility to suit better rally or older car. For GT and other modern race cars the stiff pedal is really good.

We appreciate it, man! Good to know you're enjoying them 👌

We're happy you're enjoying it 👌

Thank you, we appreciate it!

The 2nd stage is independent of the software. The 2nd stage is when the orange aluminum piston touches the black cylinder. In a real car the brake is linear. So if your goal is to simulate that, you should keep it linear.

The relation is linear, in a real car it is linear so if you want the most realistic the answer is no 👍

@@AsetekSimSports Thanks for the quick reply :) Maybe I am missing something in the design, but as far as I can see the relationship between pedal pressure and measured pressure on the load sensor of the Forte pedals will not be linear once you hit the second stage unless the sensor is calibrated with a curve? Correct me if I am wrong but from what I can tell the first stage comprises of compressing the elastomer. Then you hit the bump stop, and you enter the second stage where you are compressing a much harder rubber ring. You will get much less deflection per added kilo of force in the second stage, however the load sensor is still being activated by the internal spring so it will not "know" this, and as such the second stage will be non-linear unless this is compensated for. Edit: I understand how the Invicta pedals are linear because it has a pressure transducer and not a load cell, but the Fortes are confusing me. I should possibly just get the Invictas as I understand how they work more intuitively and love the idea of this two-stage setup 😊

@@texnorthman the point is, that you are trying to simulate a hydraulic system. When the pads are squeezing the discs there is very limited movement but just pressure build up and we have taken this in to account already. So you are right, but will exaggerate it by making it non linear.

@@AsetekSimSports Thanks, that makes sense :)

All depends on the bore of the hydraulic brake cylinder. 100 bars can be achieved easily in a static situation if the diameter of the piston is dimensioned for it. In other words - achieving 100 bars of pressure does not necessarily require the same pedal force so comparing real life cars to simulators you need to look at pedal pressure and not hydraulic pressure.

It truly is a complex world! The more competitive you get, the more complicated it gets as well (But that's the fun part) 😎

I'm waiting too

You will notice it when you reach it cause it feels like you kick against a Wall.

The 2nd stage is independent of the software. The 2nd stage is when the orange aluminum piston touches the black cylinder.
