The DD market is white hot atm....I'm not buying anything yet, I wanna see what anyone else is going to offer, I'm in no hurry. Awesome review as always Oscar!
@@kartzzy6101 Hmmm, pretty sure you've never used anything from PXN, that's the same statement all of the (fill in the blank) fanboys use. I've used and had a ton of fun modding and working with 2 of their systems already. They ain't great, but they DO work after messing around with them. This one seems considerably more polished and is the only DD wheel kit that's out of the box for all three of the big boys, PS5, Xbox and PC, not just one or possibly two if you buy the right wheel when ordering (looking at you Fanatec). For $500, this is easily the leader in it's price segment. What I mean by not getting it is I'm simply waiting for the inevitable price cuts on mid range setup from the established brands to fight this threat to their dominance. We all win when there's more competition.
The upcoming ADAC Simracing Expo in October 20-22, 2024 should tell us more about what's coming next. For me, it's a good time to make a purchase decision after the event, just in time for the Black Friday sales.
Did you experience the same problems as the vid with immersion like kerb and road effects being muted on some games? I play acc and im planning on getting this since it is cheaper here in asia
@@mrshankly6731 No. The mobile app provides lots of options to tweak and adjust the forces to your preference. FFB is subjective and most people like it a certain way. The details in ACC are actually fantastic. I turn the Gain down to 65 in ACC in-game settings, and it's awesome. You can feel the cars and all the required forces.
he did, RU-vid is just bugging out and doesn't show his reply but if u check his recent comments he replied with this: "No. The mobile app provides lots of options to tweak and adjust the forces to your preference.

Hey OCRacing, PXN has a higher end wheel called the PXN V12 DDS. It has 10nm of force and seems to have better material quality, maybe you might like that wheel!
Just picked the V12DDS 10NM base with pedals and wheel at Micro Center for a ridiculous price, could not pass it up. Will install this weekend and we will see! So far, the build quality is outstanding and has an impressive package presentation.
i have this wheel after really wanting a fanatec mclaren gt3 wheel. The issues with fanatec scared me and i took a chance. this wheel and a $80 faceplate to mimic a gt wheel rim is perfect for me.
@@dvnny1680 coming from a Logitech g29, yes. Not load cell but the wiring has good resistance and the software makes it easy to adjust where the braking power comes on
I'm interested in PXN V12 (non lite ver.) but still not sure that they(PXN) want to sell that thing or not. It's very hard to find it even if to buy from abroad. Hope there will be any news about it soon. BTW, Congrats on the 100k. Your video keep getting cooler than where I start watching your channel.
Good review but btw this is completely random, a good content idea could be to use your website to built a sim rig setup for a set amount of budget, this could serve as entertainment as well as advertising your site more.
The informative video was nicely made and it's not your fault at all it's a good thing you waited further along for that info but you first lost me at 6nm and then not feeling the road as nicely as Moza or Fanatec. You still got my attention for almost 8min which is pretty good.
Hello, sir. May I ask a question? I have very little space available so I can't have a cockpit in my house. My desk is a real sturdy one so there will be no problem using a direct drive. The question is: I'm undecided between Moza R3 (its little base might fit my desk) and Cammus C5 (I know there is C12 but let's be true if I pay 500+ dollars I want Moza). Which one would you recomend? I'm quite on the C5 side due to its really small size and ease to mount/dismount/store in my closet but I'd like to have your opinion. Really, size matters so R5/R9/R12 aren't suitable options. All considering that C5 with desk clamp and pedals costs $329 and Moza R3 costs $450 both in Europe. I forgot to say that I just play on PC so any console compatibility is unneeded now and won't be needed in the future.
Hey Oscar, I was looking around on your shop trying to find the OC Racing gloves that you use in all your videos. Is that not something that you sell and were they custom made for you? Thanks, keep up the awesome videos.
Im kinda debating between the fanatec CSL, or this. The biggest thing for the CSL is the upgrades to 8nm, and vastly more options for wheels (plus, the bundle im looking at is the WRC wheel, which has the round bottom), but the PXN is cheaper over all, coming with a clutch already. So all i really need to with that is just buying a shifter
how long have you been using the bundle before the writing of the review? I had mine for almost 3 months, my pedal start to creak very quickly, as well as having connectivity issue between the wheel and the base, the shift light blinks like its losing connection when I race sometimes, so I'm wondering if you've ever run into any of these problem
I had that question as well since i was also choosing which one i should get. In my research, the c5 is better since it has better immersion and software. However, this one has more room for aftermarket mods like a wheel faceplate and it has way better pedals
Is 34" ultrawide your plant's final decisions? Because I have such a screen. But I made the mistake to put two smaller screens next to it just to see what it looks like and, well, yesterday I ordered two 27" 16:9. Remember, it's a trap!
Would you be able to test this on playstation? Perhaps on your shorts channel, as apparently it has drivehub built in to achieve console compatibility which could dampen performance
Yes i have Both the Lite and 10nm Version (I Always Get 2 of Most Things) and Yes It Works With PS Grab Turismo 7 Just Fine - Adjusting Everything In The Game Is Quick And Easy - Download The App To Your Phone - Adjust The Feel And Feedback MOSTLY From The Phone - And Fine Tune In The Game Settings and You Are 👍🏾
I think you left out the most important piece of information and that is the price. You said "at this price point", but I'm really curious how it compares to the likes of the Moza R5 and the Fanatec CSL DD price per performance. If PXN has it considerably cheaper, then Moza and Fanatec should definitely be worried.
In the beginning of the video I said "Competitively priced in the $500 range" that's because I noticed the price varied a little bit, but the most popular listing on Amazon was for $520.
I hope one day all starts to adapt a more standardized telemetry data system in games as well so if one dd wheel works the rest would be the same, it sucks to always wait for a specific telemetry data for a game to work while it supports others, idk how many games pxn wheel supports they only shows 9, while moza got 20 with telemetry and 7 without but still ffb works, why others wouldn't is simply stupid
@@OCRacing i will, it is artiving in another country so i'll pick it up by the end of the month, also thank you for not insulting me because i chose logitech, almost everyone is so rude about it
@TheGameslayer_898 I bought a g920 for my kid last week. He's 15. Since, I've been fully immersed in sim racing playing with it more than he has. Went straight autistic with nohesi for hours and hours. Now I'm looking at buying a DD wheel for myself, specifically this or the r5. I have never ever played racing games in the past. You'll love the logitech man. I'm so glad this little mf'er asked for that wheel and pedals. I haven't had this much fun gaming in years.
Need some help didnt know where else to put this. Just retired and want to build a racing sim. I am not sure what I want. I dont want to buy one prebuilt. want to build a 3 monitor set up with all the gadgets. I have been watching all your videos the last couple of days, and when i get this started want to make sure you make some money off of it. Guessing the whole process will take me 2 or 3 months. My first question is how muchtorgue do you really need in a drive to feel real? I seen a video where someone was interviewing a real driver that plays sims and he said he all that torque was realistic so he turns it down. Just dont want to over spend for power i wont use. but i want something that feels real. currently looking at moza products
from what i have seen it works with xbox by connecting all gear to wheel base and then connecting wheel base to xbox series controller and xbox recognises it and for ps5 it has a n5 dongle or something which is plugged into wheel base and then connect it to ps5 and ps5 thinks its g29 (im not sure how it performs in consoles tho but it works and i think road affects are still pretty close to pc if not on par)
Anyone had a chance to test on console (PS5)? Also, looks like the wheel has standard mounting. Wondering even with the funky wheel shape of it can take after market wheels.
It's nice to have more competitors in the market. With that being said, I do have my considerations. That wheel design is too cringe for my liking. It could be futuristic/cyberpunk look, but that triangular shape? Big no for me. Still need an H-pattern/Sequential shifter.
does it say explicitly it does not support ps5? Usually ps4 support also means ps5 support. Even the g29 has a little switch on it for PC or PS4 , but the ps4 function also lets it work on a ps5.
@@OCRacing yeah, it was a good base,I probably just got a bad one. I still have the wheel. It's basically the same as the Moza Rs V1 13" one (but I only paid $119.00 for it and it works via USB c.
Amazon link takes me to a page with various PXN wheels, none being the V12 Lite. Via the website I can't find a price or a purchase option. What am I doing wrong ahahaha
So were you able to tinker and fix the extra immersion problem after this vid on games like acc and iracing? Also, you should do a comparison vid with this and the moza r5 and/or cammus c5
Hey question! What do you think is better, the thrusmaster T248 (with the T3pm pedals) or thr t300 rs gt(t3pa pedals) one has a better base and other has better pedals, idk whats more important
@@jochenkraus7016 Avoid taking a wheel that is too heavy or too large, because the T300 is 3.9 nm.... and not 12 or 20 nm. You might lose a lot of detail going in this direction... The must, will always remain the Tm open wheel add-on
@@rani5752 Thrustmaster sometimes has refurbished things in their online shop and some online shops sell things that are sent back for a cheaper price. And some TM bases don't come with brake pedals or with very cheap ones.
Damn I bought the thrustmaster t300rs gt and didn't see this a few months ago! Glad your giving this some marketing because I never saw this before a few months ago after I bought the t300. 😥
Tbf I think I should get the t300 because if that goes on sale on prime day and this doesn't (which is probably what's gonna happen) the t300 will be almost half the price so do u think it's worth it? Its not like I would be paying for double the torque and quality for pxn
@@jochenkraus7016 alright thanks. It's just where I live they charge similar to the pxn for moza (don't even begin on fanatec they just sell it for way too much) and other companies just don't have resellers here. The only real options are thrustmaster pxn and logitech
@@jochenkraus7016 it's great but I bought it full price and I live in the Caribbean where it's very hot so unless I use ac I get ffb loss after some time. I really like the wheel but for $50 more think I would have gone for a direct drive.
@@PeetuhGaming if you get a good deal then take it unless you live somewhere very hot and it get force feedback loss. A noctua fan mod fixes that but didn't see the nead to do that as yet as it haven't been too bad.
I almost never review desk clamps, especially not with DD units, it just doesn't make much sense and logistically it's hard for me to do since I don't have a desk setup.
