My favorite wheelbase on planrt earth. This and simucube are the two best wheelbases ive ever used. What sets the simagic apart for me is the feeling of loading and uloqding with the suspension and the snap or feeling of edge of grip. Simagic is the only wheelbase ive used where i feel like i can ride the edge of grip at maximum level and i can push it past that linit if i want to and can feel that edge and then boom catch it right when the rear gets loose the wheelbase reacts to it without any latency. Even asetek has slightly more time when it comes to loss of grip. Its just enough to notice it.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing. Thats interesting that Asetek is a slight delay considering its more or less a Simcube with LEDS. Like you, I will try them all eventually though and I can''t fathum needing anymore than the Simagic Ultimate for reaction time and strength wiyhin the reaction time. 👍 I'm totally amazed about this wheel base making me want to invest more into their ecosystem, which I have not felt that since the old Fanatec Clubsport belt drive back in the day before DD wheels. lol
Thats funny you said that haha. When i first came to dd i wasnt blown away. if anything i didnt get the hype because the cswv2.5 belt driven wheel was so damn good. It took me a high nm qheelbase like simagic to make me realize why dd was so good. I will say the dd+ from fanatec is the closest second to this simagic wheelbase ive used. People can knock fanatec but the new dd+ is fantastic imo slightly better then asetek believe it or not especially in things like acc. But yeah man simagic just has a special smooth clean feel. Like 0 notchess which is rare even for dd people act like there is none but they all usually have it especially when not in game. But sinagic doesnt. Only time simagic does is when off and thats not notches thats the motor turning on and off the green light flashes where its holdjng power so the power comes on and off making it feel like notches but it isnt. Luckily when in as you see there is none wether in or out of game. Def special@TJRSIM
I just got mine today and wow Straight out of the box this thing is solid Simagic have made an amazing wheel with so much built in All the rest of these wheel makers must be scared This wheel comes stock with Clutch paddles TJM the QR fits my sim experience V2 base but still have to fit mag link
I've been sim racing for I don't know 15 years or so. I didn't get a DD until last year. I went with the Cammus 15nm But I immediately returned it for a VRS directforce Pro.... as a Mige motor OSW has always been on my bucket list and I wouldn't trade it for the world. However, I usually recommend Simagic or a Microcenter deal depending on where you are for a more plug and Play experience.
@@frankzappa2274 Thanks for sharing Frank. Yeah we been around for a while. 🤣. I wish I could get in on those micro center deals. I seem to just miss them, but good to hear you also recommend Simagic.
@@tkdmp5698 well I purchased a new 160 aluminum profile chassis cheap from China. SimdT (Ali Exspress) Heusinkveld ultimate clones and HE ultimate plus brake upgrade kit. ( Not sim Jack pedal type) These are way heavier and more robust a real replica. Dayton pucks for pedals and seat. Leo Bodnar usb conversion kit for Fanatec uni hub and Porsche 918 rim and magnetic shifters. Pokornyi button plate, replica ignition controls button box, new seat, HE og replica handbrake. Handful of Ali Exspress Q1R Quick releases. Replica Momo rim lol. Hub extension 20$. I honestly liked the Cammus 15nm but I went all in on VRS and it's night and day better. I saved a ton of money because I knew how to cut corners and not sacrifice relative quality with a bit of DIY and research. I'm so happy Larry... The setup is a monster with my Pimax 8kx and 4090. Yes there's better but there's always better 😂🤟
@@tkdmp5698 well I was building a big new 160 aluminum profile rig. I also bought what felt like a thousand other things for the rig. I then thought to myself Why am I cheaping out on my wheelbase it's the most important thing to me. However I thought the Cammus 15nm was an absolutely outrageous deal and I did like it BUT The VRS Just felt like a better deal because I could just buy once cry once With a proven great mige bulletproof motor. I did not feel a good sense of security with the Cammus And honestly it's nowhere near the same quality force feedback.
