Jackermeier is probably not interested in answering costumers questions anymore. He did it with one RU-vidr and you could see in the video that it was a drag for him to answer them (especially due to the fact that the RU-vidr wasn't really being easy on him). The only take away from the interview was that he regretted... that he lost money during the black friday sales. Not an ounce of regret that their costumers lose faith in the company or are still waiting for their products. I still hope that you'll get to interview him, Will. It would be interesting to see what he has to say, and I'm sure you'll ask all the right questions yourself.

When did you place your order and everything was shown as 'in stock'?

@chrisbird2171 3 месяца назад

Same thing happened to me. I ordered $2K CAD worth of stuff on January 2nd, none of which was back ordered or out of stock. I just received a response last night after numerous attempts, emailed every department I could. The reason they gave me was there was an error in their system which didn't push my order through to the warehouse, so nothing happened from the start of January until now. They acknowledged that none of the items I ordered were back ordered at the time of the order, nor are they at this time. All they offered in compensation was to express ship my order. Overall, not impressed. I'm on console (PS5), so I'm stuck with Fanatec, otherwise I would have cancelled my order after the first month of no response and gone with Asetek or Simagic. You get way more for the price, but they're only PC compatible, unfortunately.

Considering how Fanatec has too few resources to deal with their driver, firmware, support, and logistics issues, I think it would be best to go to literally any other brand, regardless of what you think of their products. I say this after my own personal experience with their logistics and support, or lack thereof. Personally, I'd rather go after an Asetek setup.

@Shaded 3 месяца назад

yeah I've read a ton of bad press but then again the price just was too good, compared to other brands, as well as the delivery costs were reasonable compared to the rest. I took the risk and was not dissapointed. The delivery was super fast (ordered on Friday, arrived next Tuesday) all arrived, nothing uncomplete, all working very well, quality of all the goods were top notch. Bough the CSL DD bundle with basic pedals and wheel just to get my feet wet. But yeah, having in mind bad customer service I'm basically praying now for nothing to go bad :D But all in all I'm super duper satisfied with Fanatec even if others are not, which of course should not be the case.

The official Fanatec forums have finally admitted the “coil whine” issue is “widespread”. They also believe what is causing it.

The shipping problems are extremely disappointing, I bought Moza instead during my step up to direct drive instead. It's crazy how long some people have had to wait

@thebIackcat13 3 месяца назад

Being honest when I was looking to get my setup going a few months ago I saw all the negative coverage of Fanatec and went the way of Moza and also had shipping issues with them too, to the point where they emailed me saying that despite me paying a premium for shipping costs the bundle (R5) wouldn't be there in the advertised/listed timeframe and if I wanted to get it expedited I had to pay them *another premium* of like $75 to get it shipped from China to the US (still wouldn't have arrived in the timeframe advertised anyway, we were 2 weeks past that at this point). I sent them a rather honest email stating I was frustrated with the fact I was forced into paying extra for "fast premium shipping" and it was quite tacky of them to not only sell people an item they didn't have rather than listing it as a backorder and telling me upfront there will be an extended wait, but to then say "well we do have the item just overseas and we aren't going to pay the shipping costs to get it to you directly" instead of China -> US Warehouse in CA -> US Warehouse in my state (MI) -> My home. After that, they sent me a funky email with quite literally nothing but a line of "............." followed by another email stating they had shipped me a bundle directly from China and to expect it in approximately 1-2 weeks. Giving them credit where it's due, they did eat the cost of shipping to get it to me once I voiced my frustration, but coming into the sim racing space and hearing Fanatec horror stories followed by that slightly bumpy Moza experience spooked me and since I've gone the way of buying used but good quality accessories rather than brand new from manufacturer.

Hey there, love your videos, they are really detailed and clear. Anyways I have a quick question. I'm looking into getting the Clubsport DD wheelbase but I will be using it on the next level racing GT lite pro rig. I was wondering if the CS DD is too powerful for the rig despite them saying you can use a DD wheelbase up to 13 Nw on it. Would the CS DD be okay or should I look at the likes of Moza R12 or perhaps even a CSL DD Pro? Many thanks :)

There is no forgiveness for the customer treatment they are giving... orders delayed for several months, or lost shipments... etc. The best thing I have done is sell everything from Fanatec and switch to Asetek Invicta!!!

But hearing that you actually tested the motors in the control panel and there was no response, I guess that means it's true. Also without the motor cut out in the carbon fiber frame, in addition to the bottom carbon fiber vs Limited F1 wheels, I bet this wheel is so much stiffer.

I see a lot of people commenting about their fanatec experience so I might as well talk about mine. I got a gt dd pro with the csl wrc wheel with the qr1 lite, and the csl load cell pedals about 2 years ago, and with my old rig setup, I didn’t have a great experience, and had lots of slippage and clunking on my old qr1, and the pedals felt ok, but it was hard to brake consistently because the threshold point felt very vague and inconsistent, but then I decided during Black Friday when I saw the csl elite v2 pedals to go on sale to do an overhaul of my sim racing rig, and I gotta say it was very worth it to me. I upgraded to qr2, got the McLaren v2 wheel, and got the csl elite v2 pedals, and got a new seat for my rig and it’s been a much better experience. The new pedals feel so much better, and the new qr has no clunking, no flex, and the ff is much better as well. Been playing a lot of gran turismo 7 and assets corsa and having been enjoying it a ton. Also got their shifter as well and that’s been pretty good too. But now let me talk about shipping and wait times(posted in reply’s)

@thepowerplayer4530 3 месяца назад

So my 1st order originally when I got is like 2 years ago I think I had to wait like a month or like 3 weeks, so it wasn’t terrible, but when I did my Black Friday order, I had to wait more like 2 months, which I wasn’t a huge fan about, and isn’t great, but I feel like at the end of the day it was worth it for me, especially because it seems to be one of the best ps5 setups you can get right now.(I love playing gt7) But also during Black Friday, I ordered a v2.5x because they had a good price on it, and I wanted a smaller wheel with a ton of inputs on it, and apparently they oversold it, and I would of had to wait till February to get it, but they gave me a 25% off my entire order if I canceled, so I ended up taking that, and placing a new order for a dd+, csl hub with the round 320, and the formula v2.5, with that 25% off which gave me a massive discount, and I was quite happy with that, except I’m still waiting for that order, which I placed I would say maybe late November early December. They say it’s going to ship late March, but from my experiences it’s probably going to be here sometime in April, bc shipping using takes a week or 2 as well. I think this wait time has been quite unacceptable, and I am not happy about it, but I can’t cancel either or I will lose that 25% discount I got. The only reason that I’m ok waiting is bc I have gear to hold me over, but I can see for a lot of people that dont have stuff to hold them over, waiting this long is completely unacceptable. Also I was very upset when I heard the dd extreme wheel would not be sold separately because I love playing gran turismo, and that wheel would be perfect for my needs, but I already have my order in for a dd+, and like I said earlier I can’t cancel because I would lose that discount.

@thepowerplayer4530 3 месяца назад

I guess I’ll also add that I haven’t had any hardware issues, and besides clunky software installation and upgrades, my user experience has been really good, and I haven’t needed to contact support for pretty much anything.

I really can't believe Fanatec keeps shipping effectively the same formula wheel with a fresh coat of paint year after year. At the very least modify the thumb encoders to give them more resistance. It really shouldn't take that much more development work to drastically improve one of the core functions of the wheel.

@allanlansdowne340 3 месяца назад

That lets them use unsold wheels, just call it a limited edition. When was the last time fanatec introduced a new wheel that was affordable.

@LukeVesty 3 месяца назад

@@allanlansdowne340 if they've been making this model for this many years surely they have well and truly exhausted their original supply. They're continuing to manufacture this same fundamental design without any revision and to me this just feels like they're resting on their laurels. If Fanatec improved the thumb encoders I would consider this wheel. Instead I'm looking at third party options for my next wheel or even leaving Fanatec completely.

Unless true force can really make me sense wheel spin and lockups I'd be sad to lose the vibration. It doesn't need fidelity for my usecase, and the response time isn't great but it's good enough that I can catch lockups and wheel spin quicker than I could visually or with just the wheel base FFB.

If you manage to find cheap second - hand options of Fanatec -> get it, its still great. however i think the driver updates for older bases are non - existent.

Fanatecs American office is in the most expensive area on the planet. They waste ungodly amounts of money that could be spent improving their business. They absolutely do not need to be on Wilshire blvd in Beverly Hills. It's a giant red flag as they could be in the dessert 50 miles away for 25% of the rent they are currently paying. It's keeping them from hiring warehouse and customer service employees.

Another class move by Fanatec to screw over anyone that bought the DD+ on pre order or Just bought the extreme bundle. why don't they just tell customers what they will be selling and just give no dates. They are without a doubt the worst sim racing company on the market! The only reason to buy them now is the monopoly they have on the PS5 licence and even then Logitech G-pro is supposed to be loads better on GT7. I dunno why Sony don't just release an official Playstation adaptor with the needed chip inside so that all the major players are supported. It would be a good money spinner for them.

I ordered the DD+ Extreme package the same day they launched it, and it arrived at my house in 10 days. I am delighted with the product, the DD base is excellent, the steering wheel is a little plastic, but honestly with the magnetic paddles, clutch, screen and LEDs, I think it is a good price for €300. Someone tell me a steering wheel with those characteristics for that price, it doesn't exist. I have it with a metal QR2 that I had from another steering wheel and it works perfectly. I come from the DD Pro, and although the base DD+ is incredible, the truth is that the DD Pro is also sensational, and it is not necessary to update, especially if you play at around 6nm, because the changes to that strength are very subtle compared to the DD+. Finally, to say that the fact that Fanatec does not launch a Formula type steering wheel with a TFT screen is ridiculous.
