      I bought the CSL DD Pro bundle and it's mounted to a trak racer T 80/hybrid pedal mount gt/f1 positions.
      It is amazing coming from a T-300 and T LCM pedals on a wheel stand.
      But now almost 1 year later with the CSL DD Pro 8nm I know eventually I will be getting a DD1 or DD2 because 20nm or 25 nm is better than 12 nm that cost a $800+100 for new QR 2 quick connect and now I have 1 wheel put of 4 I can use from Fanatec eco system.
      GTF our of here Fanatec.

  • @jht8367
    @jht8367 Před 4 měsíci +24

    I’m really glad I ordered when it was still $699. It seems like price is one of the big factors when comparing it to the competition so saving that $100 makes it just a little more worth it. Plus already being locked in to the ecosystem kind of limits the choices.

      @rogerwennstrom6677 Před 4 měsíci +2

      I'm really frustrated that I didn't. :(
      I'm also really *angry* about this: I did not see any information from Fanatec that the 699 price was temporary, so I waited with my purchase to see if the QR2 availability would improve and if they would be selling wheels with the QR2.
      Raising the price from nowhere was really a dick move :(
      At 699 it is priced decently. At 799 it becomes harder to justify compared to the competition.
      Well well, as (metal) QR2 stock seems to be completely dried out until atleast february, I guess I can wait some more and see what happens... :(

      @jht8367 Před 4 měsíci

    I want to upgrade my Fanatec Porsche wheel and. as I already have Fanatec V2 pedals, I was looking at this wheelbase to buy, as my Fanatec stuff has been trouble free for many years.
    But I am totally not going to send them money over the net, I can go into a shop and pick up Moza, Simagic and Asetek gear, so even though I have some loyalty to Fanatec, I am going with one of the brands that have a physical place I can go, for ease of mind.
    I read recently that, when Fanatec were asked about going to a retail system, they said no, it would make their products too expensive.
    I can imagine that a whole lot of other people will feel the same way as I do, so unfortunately, I think it's gonna be a rocky road ahead for them, the competition is just too good and it's a less stressful purchasing/returning process. lol.

    All of the other bases compared in this video rate their base output via constant torque. It was Fanatec to had the habit of over rating their bases by quoting peak rather than constant. The alpha mini peaks at 13nm for example but is rated at 10 because holding/constant torque is the industry standard for rating output.

    Fanatec is making their ecosystem WAY too complicated. expensive QR2, QR2 Lite & QR1 with 8nm limit, ++ for PS compability, deceiving price tag, while the competitors are simple and straightforward in their lineup.

    Fanatec engineering, innovation and build quality: Yes, absolutely! Many are looking forward to this new CS wheelbase. However, should there be an after-purchase problem, buyers need to know that once Fanatec's got your money, they really don't give half a crap about customer service, as evidenced by the very large and increasing number of SR enthusiasts who have and are experiencing the Fanatec customer "service" nightmare.

      while they could, most people wouldn't be interested in this. the same way most people don't build their own computers. It would also make customer support and software support/compatability a mess.
      most importantly it would weaken Fanatec's brand, as at that point they would be mostly selling the compoennts of other companies. Their brand and profit comes from adding value by assembling all those components into a finished functional product.
      This is profitable because of the fact that people don't want to build something like this themselves, and because by buying all these components in bulk quantities they are able to produce the finished product for quite a bit less money than it would cost you if you tried to do the whole thing by yourself(and that's before factoring in the cost of the time spent for you do build it)
      at best this could be something they could offer as a secondary product line if they really wanted. but even then, they would likely charge just as much, if not more, for the kit to build it yourself. It also assumes that their current models could be built by hand by people with little to no experience making something like this. Which it likely couldn't, unless it had already been mostly assembled which defeats the purpose.
      they could make a modular version of their wheelbase, but that would add a bunch of extra cost to the design and final wheelbase, just so that a very small portion of their customers could mix various components (which would also likely require a redesign of all those components so that they could actually work as modular elements). it would likely also increase the size of the wheelbase significantly due to having to accommodate the various different potential parts. It couldn't be packaged as efficiently as something assembled by machines in a factory, instead of having to accommodate being built by the avg consumer with basic tools.
      *TL;DR:*
      interesting concept and it would be cool to have. But it would make basically no business sense for Fanatec to offer this, as it would make their offerings more expensive, reduce their potential profit margin, weaken their brand, complicate their product design, make their supply chain far less efficient, and all for a product line that the vast majority of consumers wouldn't actually want. While for the same price you could get a better wheelbase fully assembled.

    Dd+ is the best wheel base ive ever felt. Ive used 20nm simagic, dd1, moza, semicube and so on. This is the absolute best wheel base ove ever used. The 12nm dd doesnt give you the same tire/track feel. The 15nm does! Its like going from the 5nm to 8nm dd pro. So yeah and tbh i wont use full force. It would be to much detail it may mute other feelings this is on the edge of to much already just gotta adapt then you realize how perfect it is. Im not wiating for full force ill leave my bade as is no uldates fpr probably a year. When something is good i dont mess with it. People always want somrthing different and the grass isnt always greener on the other side. Drowned out the noise order now if you are in the US as it was in stock and showed up to me within 48hrs this past weel paying fot overnight shipping. It seems the texas logistics is fully up and runninf this week. The dd and dd+ are on azetek level of ffb and maybe even more.

    Very good video as usual.
    I feel like Fanatec is starting to do the wrong thing towards its customer base. As mentioned in previous comments, it appears they are doing everything to get customers (new and existing), to shell out a substantial amount of money for products that are just like the competition (they’re actually playing catch-up). Full force is a marketing term, and the worst about it is that they’re putting the responsibility of implementation on the game developers, and that’s not the way to go. Who knows how many will agree to invest in time and maybe money to implement it to cater to only one part of their customer base?
    And considering the logistics issues Fanatec are facing for the past few months, it’s an incredibly bold move to release these products whilst not being able to properly deliver to customers in a timely manner.😮. And imagine if you receive your product and it’s defective and needs to be sent back, then you’re in for a wild ride in the current state of affairs.

I've heard CZcamsrs say it has less peak strength, but that's not the same thing as "worse force feedback," unless peak forces are the only thing you care about. The Asetek is fantastic, and the price reflects that. As for the simmagic, as OC Racing says, it still struggles on the software front and road detail. I've driven every model up to and including the Alpha Ultimate, and it just doesn't convey the resolution of the road, especially at slower (cruising) speeds. Mechanically, simmagic wheelbases are great bang for the buck, but the software continually lags behind competitors in ease of use, in detail, and in parameters of adjustment. Moza, while being the worst in terms of internal components, is a great value with fantastic software and great UI (seriously, Pit House is as good as Fanalab, and I run a Podium on my daily rig). If Simmagic ever catches up on the software front, they'll be a real threat, but they're just not there yet.
