HERE WE GO! MOZA has just released a €650/$589 wheelbase and a €309/$279 GT wheel rim. Fanatec and Simagic are SWEATING right now. MOZA is not messing around! A wheelbase that's better than the Simagic Alpha Mini?! And a steering wheel that's better value than the Fanatec McLaren GT3 V2?! Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the best DD combo in sim racing right now.
To make life even easier for you, I compare the R12 to the R5 and R9, as well as comparing the KS to the GS, FSR, CS, RS and even the ES! Months of work in only 16 minutes! A like/comment would be appreciated!

I moved from a logitech DFP to an R9 a few months ago, and have only been running it at 60-70%. I'm not sure I'll need to use 100% of the R9, especially for longer races, but an R12 would cover everything. I'm also glad to see a GT rim on the same level as the CS wheel I use. I've been really happy with my moza setup, and their community engagement on their discord feels like they want to make products that we want to buy (common sense, right?)

Thank you for touching on it solving the RS weight issues! As soon as I saw this wheel base I knew I wanted to ask you if the R12 solved that problem, and it does!

@LaurenceDusoswa Год назад

yep i have 0 issues recommending it now.

@piedpiper1172 Год назад

@@LaurenceDusoswa Awesome! As soon as some US partners have it on their store I’m going to order an R12 + RS! For me, a big selling point is the software. I know my dad won’t want to deal with any software that’s too tedious or unintuitive. The iOS integration is also a big appeal, since that’s a big barrier reduction to just take out his phone and tinker. Plus, the Acelith Simracing GT rim for the RS (Forged F30 RS mod) is cheap and seems like a great hold over before buying a GS (or future revision) later! I’m also a fan of how easy Moza makes enabling and disabling their hands-off protection. I think that’ll be particularly valuable as he learns to use the rig! Edit: It’s too bad you don’t do more cockpit reviews! No one has a good review on the TrakRacer R6 in its current edition up. But I imagine that routine cockpit reviews would stress storage space.

@B1GJuggernaut Год назад

Great video! Moza is making some nice strides in hardware and software. I'm currently running a Simagic wheelbase with Fanatec pedals,shifter and handbrake. The ease of updating firmware for devices that Moza is displaying has me reconsidering my upgrade path. Seems Fanatec is being overtaken by all these other brands hitting the market. Great to have more options in hardware. Simagic's software has given me headaches too many times. Same with Fanatec's software/firmware updates. Both need massive improvement. Moza is coming with some bang for buck hardware! Other manufacturers will need to keep up. Fanatec...👀 Thanks again for the review LD!

@AltmannYT Год назад

This looks really good, and would probably be an obvious option for most going forward. I've already pulled the trigger on an Alpha mini since I got a good deal second hand, but this would've probably been what I'd pick instead if it had been available at the time. Though saying that, it likely wouldn't even be up for sale without importing, which is stupid expensive...

@mqt5 10 месяцев назад

I have both the R12, FSR, KS and RS V2. And i think I've reached the point where i have everything covered from drifting to hardcore prototype racing in iracing. The R12 is an incredible wheelbase, it absolutely hits the sweet spot, i always use it on 100% ffb intensity in the pithouse software but i do dial down the settings in the game, this thing is actually a workout! Especially in tracks where you are turning the wheel a lot like Daytona. You absolutely don't need more than the R12, unless you are worried about ffb clipping which does happen in the R12, but its quite rare, as matter of fact i actually don't remember when was the last time it clipped, it also clips just a tiny bit, to the point where its not a problem in the slightest. It does get pretty toasty but you really have to push it hard and play in a poorly air conditioned room to get it to become quite warm to the touch, but even if you do all of that, it will never overheat. So far i am extremely happy with this purchase, more so than the R9 which wasn't great at 100% because it lost ffb due to overheating. As for the KS it is a thing of beauty, the rubber grips feel fantastic and all of those buttons and dials feel incredible, i don't see any compromises made in the KS. But its not my main wheel, i mostly use the FSR because it is eye-pleasing, even though i am mainly a VR user i do tend to pick it up and admire it. I know some people will think its crazy that i bought a wheel with a screen just to play in VR, but i need an 280mm wheel which is perfect for me. Anyways Moza is killing it and i don't think they are done impressing us, I'm sure fanatec are salty rn because of the progress that Moza made jn less than two years

I'd love to use the KS with my Cammus base, I was excited to hear the QR is compatible, do you still have the Cammus base to verify the fit? Unclear on the Moza site is whether you need the universal adapter. Did the KS come with some kind of USB adapter? I only see an RJ45 type connector in the pictures of the wheel.

@LaurenceDusoswa Год назад

Cammus has a weird extra ring on the shaft. But it’s possible to make it fit

@aogsimracing5663 Год назад

@@LaurenceDusoswa I ended up getting the KS with the universal hub from Moza. The KS did not fit the Cammus base as is so I swapped in the Moza hub adapter, the Cammus wheel fit's it just fine. A little hot glue to hold the Cammus power contact for the Cammus wheel and bingo! Both wheels work on the Cammus base. I did remove the pins from the KS to be safe, as the KS is getting power from the universal hub. The KS feels great, much lighter than the Cammus wheel, so feeling more detail from the base. Love it!

@danielhass4812 Год назад

Man I was going to save up for a GRID MPX, but this may be too good of a value to pass up. Would there be any need (or benefit) to using the Moza software if using the adapter with a SC2 pro? I’m guessing button mapping and advanced lighting?

@drchtct Год назад

I'm looking at the 12-15nm ballpark with a formula rim and loadcell pedals and the race between Simagic and Asetek just got a bit more competitive with Moza joining. The La Prima bundle suddenly doesn't look as cheap anymore, €309 for this wheel looks crazy. How would you compare the FFB detail between the Asetek Forte, Simagic Alpha and a Moza equivalent (R16 or R12)?

@LaurenceDusoswa Год назад

Great question. The FFB is similar to be honest. What we get from current sims is very well conveyed by each of them. The higher you go with Nm of torque, the less difference I can feel between products. So go for the one with the best wheels for your preference, mounting options, quick release, software, etc.

@katanamd 10 месяцев назад

Asetek just lowered their prices again. You can now go to microcenter and get both the moza r12 or Asetek LaPrima for the same price. Aseteks higher end wheel is also now $299 at micro center

IMO mozas wheels all look cheap and ugly. once you are buying their best pedals and the r12 youre spending a good amount of money. so simagic is really in the same budget give or take. the simagic ecosystem is probably the best out there. the wheel selection is amazing. the quality and craftsmanship is amazing. i went with alpha 15nm wheelbase, fx pro wheel, p2000 pedals with haptics, q1 sequential shifter, ds8x shifter and hydro handbrake. top notch stuff

@DavidShinoda 4 месяца назад

I'm thinking either r9v2 or simagic alpha mini, Thinking r9v2 because of the price is arround 415usd, power consumption, and because i still have no proper rig only aliex 1 (idk if it'll hold up or wobbly mess) and for alpha mini around 561usd But many rumors about moza is overheating issues and some headache issues "not the worth" they said. But now seeing rumors about simagic with their software is less than moza. which should i buy? Help.. My current sim: G29 steer, moza h shifter, simjackpro pedals, hb aliex, aliex rig (copy cat cheapest lineup from NLR). (and for the next base i'm using some cheap steer from car and i already bought moza qr and moza seq shifter because it's on promo.) (I don't mind if i need to use 2 software or anything, if i need to use simagic or moza base but which is better?)

@LaurenceDusoswa 4 месяца назад

The alpha mini is better than the r12 and the r9. The software has gotten a lot better too.

@hMint 9 месяцев назад

My alpha mini has shat itself from the internals a while ago (after the base has been heat soaked it produces a very loud audible click every 5mm you turn the wheel. The noise is pretty much the exact same as what you hear when you spin those lucky draw wheels), I'll drive this alpha mini until it completely stops working but my next upgrade will probably be from Moza. From a value standpoint they're far above simagic, the GT4 wheel I got from simagic is $699 (without a hand clutch) and the ks wheel from Moza is just $400 for me, and it has just as many buttons (if not more with the hand clutches). Also simagic's 1 year warranty and the push to have the distributor take care of your problems is pretty big con. btw my alpha mini started showing its defect right after the 1 year mark which is just great lol

@LaurenceDusoswa Год назад

If both were the same price, it would be the GS without a doubt. It's a glorious steering wheel. However, the only major difference is the quality of materials used and it has more functionality than the KS. If that's worth the money for you, then definitely the GS. You will not be unhappy with either one but if you buy the KS you will always wonder about the GS :D

Is it possible that the first shipped Alpha Minis had a more powerful motor and the latest ones are actually only 10nm, making the R12 actually a winner here?

I don't know the actual inner workings of the adapter, I'm just guessing. It just works.

The alpha mini has been tested and puts out a peak torque of 13.5nm of torque consistently...
