Its actually pretty easy to jump in after someone else in this cockpit. There is a Huuuuuge amount of space between your legs and wheel. My friend has this rig and he is 5'8" and I am 6'4". I had no issues driving after him for a few hours without any modification whatsoever. This is by far the most Rigid Portable Sim Cockpit on the market. And portable is a massive thing in most sim racers list of desired features. Great review as usual and thanks for all the info, I am definitely

@myweirdtaste8090 2 года назад

Besides its limitations I really like the design. I was a big fan of the Playseat Challenge, since the seat construction was surprisingly stable, everlasting and comfortable (more comfy than my later SimLab Bucket seat).

@Abel_GTx 2 года назад

Thank you so much for the review. I received mine this past weekend. I'm excited to finally be a true sim racer with GT 7 out today (on my birthday of all days :) I agree with your take about the adjustability. I am constantly loosening screws and retighting it when switching between my wife, brothers, friends, and myself. It is a nice looking and functioning cockpit overall. Love how light it is as well.

@crkvend 2 года назад

Hey Abel, do you find that when switching between users, it’s usually enough to just adjust the main extension (the distance between the front part and back part) or do you feel like you have to also adjust the pedals and the seat? I’m thinking maybe it would be possible to just get thumb screws for the main extension, that way you wouldn’t at least need tools.

@Abel_GTx 2 года назад

@@crkvend the pedal tray has a lot of adjustments which makes it easier to adjust to a range of heights. I am 5’9 and my wife is 5’0. When we switch that’s all I have to adjust. It took us a bit to set it up. But once we found the right combinations, it’s become easier. It’s is a bit annoying though particularly if you are switching back and forth. But we usually play for 3-5 hours stints. So it’s not too bad.

@kylerobinson6102 2 года назад

It makes you wonder why they didn't just put a break in the top half of the seat to get it to fold down. Ever been in a C3 Corvette? The seat folds half way up your back..

@TTRacer25 2 года назад

First of all, I love your reviews on all the Simracing stuff! Thanks a lot! I‘m considering buying this rig too. The only thing that keeps me from ordering is that I cannot guess how high and adjustable the wheel will sit on the plate and how it will fit my height. I‘m about 174cm. How is the adjustability and comfort if you would tilt the wheel a bit downwards? Is the seating and driving position still okay-ish? How angled would I have to put the screen then to make sense? I would attach a Fanatec CSW2.5 with the BMW GT2 wheel.

@gynness1 Год назад

Great review - I’ve had one about 6 months, so far so good! It’s absolutely rock solid 👍

@thomass3544 10 месяцев назад

Got it 2nd hand a year ago and its a great cockpit, if you are a casual racer that does not swap around drivers and don't have a room just equipped for racing ;-) Fits perfect for me 1,85m (75kg) I can sit in it for hours. It is very sturdy and might have some tiny tiny flex in it but it does not bother you at all when driving. I've got it in my living room and can swap it easily to the corner after being done racing. As it is very light & compact as Karl mentions in the video.

@kresimircosic9035 Год назад

I think the part of the price is the actual movability of the cockpit. I think it adds to the price tag, and I value that a lot. I need to move it, I love your review - best cockpit reviews on the web. I will probably get this one, as it doesn't weight much, it's really sturdy and it's movable. EDIT: I got it and love it. I also got the shifter/e-brake mount (I emailed them, shop didn't have that at the time) and I mounted DD pro, CSL load cell kit and both the shifter and e-brake.

Really great and detailed review. New Sub! Wasn't aware of this Rig until today. I have had a PlaySeat Challenge for around 6 Years + now due to lack of space and thought this would be a great option until I heard the price of it which shocked me. It looks really great in design and great to move around the flat but perhaps on a good sale it may tempt me.

@supercededman 4 месяца назад

It's a good-looking unit. I went for an NLR GT Lite a few years ago, before this was around. If it had been, I would have bought it. One modification I would make, if I were in the market, would be to brace the wheel deck at the front with a horizontally-mounted bar, to which I'd fasten 2 uprights which would then go down the the frame (which is running front to rear). I think this mod might be fiddly, but it would enable the use of a mid-range DD drive. Great review, Karl. EDIT: I've just bought a Logi G Pro wheel and an NLR GT Elite aluminium profile rig.

@KarlGosling 2 года назад

The GT1 EVO is a decent small ally profile cockpit but too much money for us in the UK, I don't know where you are in the world but to the UK with the cheapest seat they offer it's £699 plus shipping. A comparable Sim Hound cockpit is about £530 with a seat delivered.

Hello there, many thanks for the review , a couple of follow-up questions : 1. Its lightness makes it interesting for usage / storage, any way to store it vertically? 2. How comfortable is it compared to a play seat challenge ?

@KarlGosling 2 года назад

If you can get it to balance upright yes, still a reasonable footprint though as the seat doesn't fold or move. Way more comfortable IMO.

@danielgeissbuhler1754 3 месяца назад

Use it since 2 months in combination with the Asetek Forte Bundle and I'm actually happy with. No feelable flex, looks good, can easy be moved. Had do drill new holes for the base + pedals, but this is ok. One MAJOR issue I have tough... The lenght adjustment clamping is too weak. Under heavy breaking, the seat will lengthen itself, which is really annoying. Seems the only solution to this is, to drill a hole and stuck a bolt/screw throgh to fix it.

@lewisgrey6010 2 года назад

I just bought this and it is a very nice bit of kit but you are paying a good 50% or more over the odds for the low weight and form factor. I had the money to burn and there wasn’t anything quite comparable on the market so ultimately decided it was worth it but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it to someone else. I’ve already come up with a pretty nice home brew shifter mount out of some left over plywood in the garage, there’s enough spare bolt hole mounting points that’s it’s pretty easy to work out, I’m sure there will be something on the market soon.

@Mat-hr1dg 9 месяцев назад

I compared this and the titan. Honestly, I would use this, due to the much easier storabilty AND it has less flex in the pedal base, which DID somewhat show up in the software with a fluctuation of 1-3% depending on the set strenght of the pedals. I also found it weirdly more comfortable than the titan. I would also argue that size adjustability isn't a problem. It has a lot more upwards leg space and my my 1.83m body was able to drive it at the same setting my 1.60m wife used. I sadly was never able to compare it to the ART

@crkvend 2 года назад

Great review Karl, and thanks for addressing my question regarding if it can easily be stored in two pieces. What surprises me the most about this is that it seems impossible to adjust the seat height (or the wheel height) in any way. The wheel definitely looked to be to high up for you, and if there is no way to change the “ass to wheel” ratio (™️), that seems like a pretty big drawback. Edit: According to their website, seat height is adjustable, tho they provide no info whatsoever, nor a download of the manual.

@KarlGosling 2 года назад

No worries mate, it was a good question to ask! lol "ass to wheel ratio" and I like that you trade marked it too! But no it's not adjustable, if you extend where that front and back halves join then that also raises or lowers the front of the seat as it's angled, but thats it.

@DARKNADAL 2 года назад

You can pretty much adjust seat height with the velcro straps which run under the seating area, not clear in the manual though

@crkvend 2 года назад

@@DARKNADAL but that would then also change the form of the seat as well. The velcro strap is pretty narrow and it would only raise that part of the seat, not the whole “butt area”. The Playseat Challenge also has the same issue.

The rest of it is actually ok, but the seat is really bad and like he said you can't really adjust it that much. If you are going to do a lot of hours on this I reckon it would end up giving you back problems. And some people are saying it's ok with a lumbar pillow, but you shouldn't have to F around with a bodgy pillow for this much money. Other setups are the same or similar price but much better.

@joelklaus902 2 года назад

Thanks so much for this review Karl! How is the GT Omega Titan to move around compared to the Playseat Trophy for someone that would need to put it aside once finished racing? Is the Titan much heavier or more of a pain to move about?

@richardhudson1543 2 года назад

The titan is very heavy but I've added castors in place of the 6 feet it has to make it more manageable. Also in my opinion the titan is a much better cockpit

@KarlGosling 2 года назад

Yeah add some casters and you'll be fine, the addition of more material and a proper seat make it much heavier than this.

@aaronegro 2 года назад

I added larger caster rubber wheels to protect the wooden floor from markings and moving the Titan is as easy as pushing a large trolley. The only think I dislike about the omega is the fact it cannot provide much adjustability for the wheel itself. Otherwise, tremendously solid.

@BlibbertyBlobberty Год назад

Has anyone got any idea where the extra separate strap goes? I can't figure it out at all! Thanks in advance!

@forbiddenracer2056 2 года назад

Enjoy watching your reviews, I’m torn between cockpits. Which one would you go for out the following that fit my budget. The Sim Hound Profile (you reviewed the Scooby), GT Omega Titan, GT Omega Art, will be used with Thrustmaster TGT. Or do you have another option? Im thinking Titan just as like look of tubular frame.

@KarlGosling 2 года назад

Sim Hound is the most adjustable and fairly rigid, Titan is the most solid and nice looking, ART is the cheapest but has the most flex and wobble.

@forbiddenracer2056 2 года назад

How is the flex with thrustmaster tlcm pedals? Does it work? Or is gt omega titan better?

@TheDoctor46vr 5 месяцев назад

Do you think VRS pedals are overkill for this? I dont plan to use high kg of force, if they still are worth it, great. if not then i can get something like the CSL V2's

Great review Karl! Between the GT Omega Art with RS XL seat and the Playseat Trophy what you you chose?

@KarlGosling 2 года назад

Thats tricky , the PST is much more solid than the ART but the seat doesn't adjust as easily... I'd get a Titan if it were me, or if you don't care about the seat adjustment and love the look then go for the PST... up to you mate! :)

@jonathanaldenactor 2 года назад

Excellent review, thinking about getting it.. do you think it will be ok for someone 2 meters tall? Is the structure still stable and without flex on the longest frame setting?

@KarlGosling 2 года назад

Yeah I think it will be fine mate, I had it all the way out to play around and it was still solid.

@stoorzender7988 2 года назад

@@KarlGosling Thanks mate. As always waited a few days before pulling the trigger, only to get a mail from GT Omega today that the Titan was back in stock, so opted for that instead (used your code, every littl ebit helps :)) very exited with both a Titan and the DD pro on the way now, coming from a Thrustmaster T300 RS on a wheelstand pro :)

@MrRaffcik 8 месяцев назад

My weight is around 110-115 kg. Will it be sturdy enough for me? I need something to seat on and not be worried, use my strenght on wheel and pedals without much flex and squeaking noises.

@johnpaullacson2284 5 месяцев назад

Thanks. Great review. I will just use my 100 dollar wheel stand and gaming chair for now. I hope there will be a price drop.

@ddbear8786 Год назад

Someone needs to come up with a racing seat that is adjustable for little kids and adults. This one is almost there with the adjustable pedal distance. But it looks like the steering wheel is fixed at a high position. Right now we're using the Playseat Challenge and putting a box underneath the pedals to raise it up higher when our kids are racing. People are not going to buy multiple racing rigs when people of different ages want to play, or when there is a party and everyone wants to try it out.

Would you tell please wich bolts did you use for mounting fanatec csl pedals?

It's 700 USD. I like the minimal clean look. I've been looking into Next Level Racing and Sim-Labs. I'm using the Frenchie Speed Cockpit at this time.

So youre saying playseat advertises it as compatible with CSL however i just got the csl pedals with LC pedal. There is no hole to bolt down my load cell in the middle How Is This Compatible?
