Hey Oscar. I send you a message on discord about my project Racing2raise.

@OhItsThat 11 месяцев назад

Had I not switched to the SC2 Pro from the DD2 almost 3 years ago. It would have cost me over $1300 to upgrade my wheels to proper QRs. The QR was the reason I switched. Bless the affordability of the HRS XeroPlay.

@FilthyCasualRacing 11 месяцев назад

I think the pro is absurdly overpriced, but the other ones seem to be where they need to be. I've been holding out on getting a new wheel hoping that they would release this so now I think I can make the switch. Hopefully the pump out an updated v3 pedal soon. If not I may end up snagging the p1000s.

@hypnotiq 11 месяцев назад

I can't speak for the pedals themselves, but I love all my simagic stuff. imo they're doing way more than fanatec at fairly comparable prices.

@untrainedprofessionals2374 11 месяцев назад

It's double the price of a QR! mate. So you don't need a securing bolt. For DD1s or DD2s maybe but I personally see no massive advantage. Not at those prices. Long term with constant wheel changes and fatigue on the pins will be interesting. I'm sure they run a huge amount of testing themselves.

@Zedgo99 10 месяцев назад

If they could make a sprints'esque pedal that'd be great but fundamentally the v3 is a floor pedal in design, so it'd be another concurrent line rather than updated v3's i think. Speaking as somebody who went csl->v3->sprints.

@traviss9059 10 месяцев назад

They pulled some shady shit with the CSL Elite pedals already. For almost 2 years the loadcell brake was "discontinued" then they released the new Elites with the loadcell attached (and not offering it separately) fucking anyone who bought the 2 pedal without the loadcell in the process.

Its criminally disrespectful to be selling something for a high price, whereas the competition like Moza offer it on the cheapest wheels and wheelbases. Thanks Fanatec for the extra cost 🥲

@StancedMK 10 месяцев назад

The cheapest one doesnt seem to have flex, it was the rim itself flexing hard. While overall the middle of the price is the best for price. The cheap one is perfect for the cheap bundles Fanatec provides.

@earthlingtheaaron21 11 месяцев назад

I think this is a good update to compete against MOZA and Simagic. Now, they need a truly premium option to compete in the brake space as a $500 option that is Heusinkveld Sprint quality and console compatible is certainly needed.

@zenflight2450 11 месяцев назад

All they needed to do is switch to NRG style QR. This is jus another nail in the Fanatec coffin. Moza ES whole wheel cost as QR2. A joke.

@pwnzama9403 11 месяцев назад

X for doubt. D1 is the most used and know QR system in real cars. Hard to beat it when its been developed and existed for a really long time and being Simagic is partnered with FD having a QR system commonly used in Track and drift cars its obviously good enough for a sim if not overkill. I find most these sim companies try to reinvent the wheel instead of going with what just works and is proven. also Real cirtified D1 QRs are way cheaper like what the fanatec chill with that pro model.

From this standpoint, Moza and Simagic are only brands that I wish I could have.

@michaelw6277 7 месяцев назад

4:35 to be fair to the quick release it looks like the flex is actually coming from the wheel rim itself and from somewhere inside the wheel base, the connection point between the wheel and the shaft itself looked completely solid.

@haraldjohansen1867 11 месяцев назад

So, what would be the point in buying this if I already have a metal qr that works just fine?

@eugenecia9424 8 месяцев назад

I have different experience with QR2. I have DD1 and WRC wheel with qR2 and qR2 light on WRC wheel, I have no flex at all, a little bit on the wheel itself. Had the qR with rotary knob on WRC wheel. I don't even miss my Hi Tork, it is so a big progress.

Sadly the prices are way too high to upgrade for me rn Will go probably with a qr1 as it is just 50 euros now and not 100 anymore. If the qr2 would only be 100 I would have thought about it maybe in Black Friday Times but nah I am not paying 160 euros to upgrade tp qr2 and I am probably good with the qr1 on my csl DD with Boostkit I dont really trust the plastic qr lite anymore and want smth sturdier for sure

@Stevo6042 11 месяцев назад

@TZAG 7 месяцев назад

IMHO QR1 is better than QR2. Since the base side part is made of aluminium and if managed to be scratched after a few removes/reattachements imagine what will happen in continuous interchanging of wheels. I believe the cause of this is due to the QR2 locking rods on the wheel side, which should be made of stainless steel and come in contact with the aluminum part of the base side. So in the long run these rods will wear the edges of aluminium base enough to loosen contact with it. I hope I'm wrong but only time and use will tell. I also find QR2 are too expensive for nothing.

Could you try the new QR2s with the force feedback test in the Fanatec Control Panel? It makes the wheel oscillate at a high frequency. With QR1 if you don't use the locking bolt it'll make huge clunky noises, how about QR2? I really hope it can stay silent.

@momorious 11 месяцев назад

QR2 makes absolutely no noise at all during that test.

@Phantom096 7 месяцев назад

@thomaswyatt199 11 месяцев назад

Way to late for fanatec and way to expensive at $340 for the qr2 and the qr2 shaft . They should of release this along side with some new podium wheel bases that have the qr2 shaft. For comparsion a simgic qr is $74 and works with any 70mm wheel or you can get the 50mm one and the simagic gt pro hub is only $389.
