After years of wanting to try the YAW Motion Simulator, I finally got my chance to take a ride on the latest offering from YAW VR, the YAW 3. The YAW 3 is a refined version of the YAW 2 and was unlike any motion simulator I have tried before. What did I think of the motion? Would I recommend this for you? I talk about all this in the video, I hope you enjoy!

As an owner of the yaw 2. The rotation is amazing for traction loss in cars as you really feel the weight of the car when you say spin 180 or catching a slide but agree on the use in planes. Helicopters though do benefit. Also, I mounted a full gt omega alu profile to mine and it's so much better.

@GYGOtv 5 дней назад

Hey Mark, cool vid. We discussed the yaw3 at your booth on Friday heading into FSEXPO. I definitely see potential here after trying it out myself. Looking forward to seeing an update review before pulling the plug.

@GYGOtv 3 дня назад

Ya we will see if I end up with a demo unit. I feel like it and the H3 might each have advantages but my gut feeling is the DOF Reality H6 is still going to give a much superior experience. Of course I'll keep an open mind but that is what my gut is telling me right now. Thanks for the comment!

@tdub8719 3 дня назад

Thanks Mark for the 1st impression. Glad you got to try it. Maybe a good rubber matt may stop the base sliding but I also noticed it lifting on occasion with the aggressive motion. My main deterant with the H3 is the lack of tilt angle for climb and descent, which I'm guessing is slightly negated in VR. The YAW seem more than adequate with this. I hope you are provided with a YAW review unit.

@GYGOtv 3 дня назад

Thanks TDub! I think the big question is if the increased pitch angle of the YAW is worth sacrificing the stability of the H3, and that is a big toss up right now. I can tell you, unless the YAW just amazes me, I can't see me trading off my H6 for it... I think you would give up too much just to get that extra pitch, but we will see.

@DaManAbove 5 дней назад

I'm looking to spend $5k-8k on a Motion platform, but VERY new to these products. I mostly play American Truck Simulator and Microsoft Flight Sim, but also would like a platform that will do well with roller coaster games for my kids. Any advice would be appreciated, would like to have a platform ordered within the next few days. Also never used VR and was curious if the Meta Quest 2 or 3 would suffice.

@GYGOtv 5 дней назад

Thanks for the question @DaManAbove, and welcome to this amazing world of motion!. I haven't tested the YAW enough to recommend it yet... but honestly from what you are telling me I think your best choice would be a DOF Reality H6 (which is what I own). It will be great in all simulators like American Truck Simulator and MSFS. If you want to see it in action on a roller coaster watch this ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Vd5aCnDFRYI.html I have a lot of videos on my channel with the H6, so feel free to look around and see what you find. I also have a discount code listed on my newest H6 videos (I can't put it here because the search algorithms will find it so I have to put it in the videos themselves). If you want to know why I recommend the H6 over other platforms, you can watch that here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nzmRzF7YQBA.html and that video will give you an idea of other platforms that are available to buy out there if the DOF Reality just isn't your thing. Certainly if you have any other questions feel free to ask. As for the VR question, Yes on the Quest 3 and NO NO NO NO on the Quest 2. I have a video comparing all the entry level headsets here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-opD35xl5PwA.html and specifically the Quest 3 here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jV5otY20y0U.html If you want to step up the VR a little, the new Pimax Crystal Light seems to be the best bang for the buck right now pimax.com/pages/crystal-light. If you choose that direction, I may have a discount code for the Pimax and I'll dig it out if you decide to buy one. So I think I've given you plenty to watch, again don't hesitate with any questions you might have. This is an amazing hobby and I'm glad you found our channel and I hope it helps. Let me know how it goes.

@GYGOtv 5 дней назад

Good solution... you have a Yaw2 or 3?

@Axacuatl 5 дней назад

I've got mine on a carpet, but I guess I am not doing much of the drastic movements. I use it for simracing, and when I crash I usually quickly hit the menu button to stop being thrown around. It probably helps that I've got the Yaw 2 with the middle desk with two massive arms, and the Yaw module too which all add weight and keep it to its place (the Yaw 3 reduced the weight by something like 40% IIRC). But I admit that the GVGO footage shows the Yaw 3 moving all over the place so you want to have at least use a rubber mat. If you are flying C172 General Aviation kind of planes you don't have to worry, it's all far to smooth. Which actually let me go for simracing when I decided what to use it for, as I grew tired of refitting controls (and fitting both doesn't work with a steering wheel & yoke). But it's a fun device and I find myself using it quite frequently (and sim flight really has suffered as I miss the motion)

@GYGOtv 5 дней назад

@@Axacuatl Thanks for the comment... Ya I can't fly anymore without motion... It just feels wrong now. As for sim racing, if you ever get the chance I would argue that nothing beats the DOF Reality H6 for that. That side sway when you hit a guardrail or another car is amazing and I LOVE the heave for feeling road textures and maybe when you catch some air :) Don't get me wrong, I'm sure the Yaw is great too but man H6 and racing is like a match made in heaven.

very good observation and honest feedback.as a owner of yaw 2.5 edition this lacks in stability in framework and i have even drilled holes in the floor just for it not to move around on the floor and the yaw 2.5 has alot more main weight on base station and wider in generall. looking forward to hear more from your honest thoughts if they finaly choose to give you one❤ i have come to a point due to construct materials it wont work with the loads put on the framework so to keep it safe i put clean scenes only.meaning if racing is a go only small weight stuff so the brigde clamp wont break and even cause damage to the main seat construct as it happend for me in 2.0 version i owned.keep it upp and be loyal to quality in generall as you provide on your channel🎉

@@davewatson2124 Gday Dave.....gotta agree with you, if it walks like a duck ,looks like a duck and quacks like a duck then its probably a duck.....sorry if there was any confusion, what I meant was that they "say" that kickstarters who have not received their rigs as yet after all this time will eventually get a Yaw 3 (as long as they pay more money).....once they start rolling the Yaw3 out the door, was supposed to be January of this year, no more yaw 2s

I'm "harping" on it because I still get asked on a regular basis what my thoughts are on it by my viewers. Yes I asked about that situation and if you watch the end I mention it but I'm happy to explain it more to you here. Keep in mind, I do NOT work for YAW and I was only able to spend a little time with Zsolt but from talking to him, this is my understanding. Basically the Yaw 2 ended up being an inefficient and costly design that was running into durability problems and almost ran the company out of business trying to fulfill the kickstarter orders. YawVR had to pivot last year not only to stay in business but also redesign the unit to be more cost effective and durable... hence now you have the Yaw 3. I'm fully aware of the kickstarter situation and I can TOTALLY understand how frustrating that must be... but if YawVR went out of business then No Kickstarter would be getting anything. At least this way YawVR has the potential to deliver on what they promised. Is it a "scam"? Well you'll have to define what you mean by scam for me to answer that. My definition of a Scam is an intentional scheme to steal money from victims, so to me no it is not a scam because I can see YawVR is actively trying to do what they say. Are they using questionable business practices... I'll leave that up to people who know more about the situation than I do debate that. Hope that answers your question, I'm sure you aren't the only one that wondered about that so thanks for the question.

I actually have the Yaw1 Pro or as you put it the salad bowl 🥗 🥣 I picked up from someone locally for $600. It is actually pretty cool. I enjoy using it. But, I agree the new version looks more professional.

That is a heck of a deal. There is no way my Back would be able to support me in that thing. It sucks getting old!

@GYGOtv I understand that completely. I am 44 going to turn 45 this october. I definitely feel the difference. I actually added some of those seat cushions for both my bottom and back. It makes a big difference. I enjoy playing in Virtual Reality, wearing my Woojer Vest 3, and sitting in this motion simulator using the Hotas. I just recently purchased that Pimax Crystal Light HMD. It has the best visuals I have ever seen.

@@WOojerVest3andQuest3onMe Ahhh you are starting down the path and it won't be long until you are in a DOF Reality H6!!! I can see it now! It is an amazing time for us enthusiasts. VR and Motion in my own home, who would have thunk it 20 years ago! Do you like the Woojer over a B Haptic?

@WOojerVest3andQuest3onMe 4 дня назад

@GYGOtv I haven't tried the bhaptics vest. I just bought the Woojer Vest because it works with everything. Plus, it was on sale. I am a sucker for deals. I actually almost bought one of those DOF rigs. But, I changed my mind. $3k + is way more than I want to invest.

@@WOojerVest3andQuest3onMe Ya Haptic Vest is on my future acquisition list, I'll have to research what the best would be. I totally understand the hesitation on the DOF Reality Rig, mine was over $5k and I had no idea if I'd like it or not... I can honestly tell you it was one of the best things I've ever purchased and I'm so happy I did it. Keep an eye out, maybe a sale will get you into one someday.
