Let me preface this by saying, my wife is the sweetest, kindest, most generous and easy going person I have ever met, but if she ever found out that I paid 4,400 Euros for a set of sim racing pedals, she would stab me in the balls! ( Seriously!!) Nice pedals though; great review Dan.

They sold me on the brake pedal when they showed that you could set up far brake travel AND high force. That alone (abs is nice too) sold me on the pedal. I initially thought that it was too expensive but over time I've decided I want it enough so I ordered one 2 days ago. Cannot wait to get it!

"What's more subjective than sim racing equipment I dont know." - Barry Sim racing Garage. What some people may think is awful some might find it great. I do not listen to really anyone I go by what I like and how it feels to me. There is no right or wrong with this stuff. It's all personal preference.

@Spinelli__ 9 месяцев назад

Thank you for going into details about profiles and driving a non-ABS car. Other reviews spend so much time obsessing over driving aids like ABS even though 90%+ of racecars DON"T have ABS. For me, what makes these pedals, or rather this style of pedal, so attractive is the fun and immersion that can be had with easily adjusting the feel, throw-length, force, and force curve. It's probably not the best thing to do for pure laptimes, but for fun and immersion, it would be so amazing to have all sorts of different physical brake characteristics depending on if I'm racing a 1960s GT, modern F1, modern F2000, an 80s/90s Ferrari F40 LM/GTE, a 125 cc kart, a 1970s Can-Am, a soft road car, etc. etc. It would be one extra thing that differentiates the experience - positive or negative - of different cars. ABS is so not the main feature of this pedal set yet every one obsesses over it.

@grayzedynamics Год назад

These are such sweet pedals and for the price the technology is amazing. The key for us all is to wait for these to reproduced and the cost to come down. I am looking forward to the future of sim-racing and the gear that simucube has is second to none. It is great quality and does come at a premium. If you have the extra income, I would recommend, but for most of us, it is too much to swallow.

@avaruusvektori Год назад

Excellent review Dan! This review has been circulating in Simucube in-house chats and has caused lots of grateful feelings. Also new ideas related to the product itself has raised :)

@kason9194 Месяц назад

@scuderiabazzane6064 Год назад

Related to clones you mentioned, I would say that “People who are really serious about software should make their own hardware” (Alan Kay)... Simucube perfectly fits this definition

@jarrodclyne707 Год назад

I could pay 1500 euros for one pedal, but hard to go beyond that. Would love to own something similar one day.

@everythinggaming7938 7 месяцев назад

they have a seperate throttle pedal which is cheaper so you only have to buy one

@mklein345 Год назад

Thank you Dan, just recieved the SimCore pedal face for the active pedals. Appear to be incredible well made and great looking. Now my task is to find somewhere I can order the active pedals. No one has any and not sure when they will be available. I can at least look forward to my GSR P1 which should be made soon. Take care.

@JaredPaul01 Год назад

Nice review, amazing product but I think my little dyton transducers strapped to the back of my pedals will have to do for now.

@Fummi Год назад

My opinion is that the actual games are not ready for that kind of technology. My expectations from a ffb pedal were more about getting an acurate feeling of pressure, travel and texture, a different one from any car on the game, as the wheelbases can already provide. This is only endless adjustability + abs effect, but all you feel comes from the pedals software, the game always treats the pedals the same in game.

@breeminator Год назад

Yes, what you describe is exactly what we need - force feedback pedals where the force is controlled by the game in the same way as it controls the force applied by a force feedback wheel. That's the only way what we feel through the pedals can exactly reflect what the car is doing in the game, like we feel through pedals in real life.

@Fummi Год назад

@@breeminator thats exactly what I wanted to say but in proper english haha

@jarrodclyne707 Год назад

Amazing review btw, giving these pedals the treatment they deserve.

@Hobbs_Racing 11 месяцев назад

Another great review Dan. This is the second time I’ve watched your video. Initially I thought it was too expensive and didn’t give it a second thought. Then I was thinking how a lot of people question the value proposition of these pedals vs. a high-end wheel like a P1. The price differential is not that high, and I think there’s a lot more “benefit” that these pedals offer. You have me thinking again. I have to admit that every time I watch one of your new or old videos, I’ve ended up buying it like the densu flag, the SC2 pro (switching from the Simagic Ultimate), and now either the P1 or the active pedal. You are an expensive influencer. 😂

@DanSuzuki 11 месяцев назад

Im sorry 😂

@BoosiveFPV Год назад

I honestly might save up for one of these. I have VRS pedals atm. One of these active breaks combined with the VRS throttle pedal. Would be perfect I reckon 🤩

@atz104 Год назад

great review Dan, but lets face it. Many of us might recommend throttle and brake when they cost you like 1500 euros total. After you pay them 4300 euros tho it isnt so easy to recommend this purchase. Honest from you to point that out at the start of the video tho. Im sure that this technology will allow a step forward into simulation when it will become more accessible.

@DanSuzuki Год назад

To be completely honest ... if I had to send both back I would also just buy tham at the full price, I'm really that impressed. To be fair I'm in the lucky position that I make money with simracing, so it's easier to justify spending that much money on a pedalset. Still - I think the passive throttle is a great move that makes the whole thing a bit less expensive (I dont really want to use the words "more affordable" here 😅) - definitely looking forward to test that as well!

@lordclumsy Год назад

Nice review, nice pedals, not so nice price. But another topic: how do you manage to see the power consumption for every device in Home Assistant? Do you use a single power socket for every device?

@DanSuzuki Год назад

Yes, all on seperate smart plugs :)

@heikogehrig Год назад

Fantastic review/take! So the way I understand it, if the car [in the sim] does not have ABS, you get no effects? ie - you can't simulate wheel lock up on non ABS cars? Likewise, if the car has no traction control, you cannot simulate the car spinning it's wheels/losing grip? Is this correct?

@DanSuzuki Год назад

correct :)

@arnaudontrack499 4 месяца назад

41:40 i don't have the Simucube pedal but the Haptor from Simagic. On iRacing and rFactor2 i start my trailbraking when i feel the ABS. I tried to do the same on ACC but ended by staying in the ABS because i was loosing brake efficiency so i'm suprised to hear that you start trailbraking when you feel the ABS.

Not sure if those clubmaster pedals are have replacement parts. They never get back to me. Kinda abandoned when asking them. they dont have a parts page. any advise. I am selling the original Elite wheel in its box. I just put a new computer board in it from them before I put it away years ago, like 2012.

@DanSuzuki Год назад

I recommend the AP for any pedal - but the brake definitely is the most important one - if your budget is “limited” then the passive throttle surely is a great alternative :)

@JonFestinger Год назад

Have done a quick patent search (EU, US & Canada) and could not find a pending patent on this from Simucube or Granite Devices. Did so just to calibrate (pun intended) the likelihood of a competitor coming up with a similar but less expensive version. Was somewhat confused when a higher up at Simagic in a recent interview seemed to suggest that Simucube did have IP protection of some kind on the active pedal. All very interesting. Anyone know more?

@VenturaCocktail Год назад

Patent applications are not published until 18 months after they are submitted. Active pedals product page states that multiple patents pending.

@JonFestinger Год назад

@@VenturaCocktail I should probably have known that! Assuming multiple patents will likely be awarded then the optimism around cheaper versions might be slightly rose-coloured, but of course there are usually many different ways to arrive at the same end.

This is the next step in immersion for sim racers. For the current asking price(various currencies), players need to be AT LEAST a second faster over static pedals.

The sim racing hobby is already expensive to begin with but the pricing on these are absurd. Those defending the price of these pedals sound ridiculous when current pedals on the market will do just fine. I’m sure their margins per pedal is beefy for each sucker that purchases these. The only bright side to this are competitors coming out with more reasonable priced pedals with similar concept down the road.
