@EXCER35 very cool! Thank you for that explanation, I had no idea what all the letter were about lol

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing Polish language is very hard and tweaky so no one is mad when someone who don't speak polish try to spell this crazy ah words. Rościszów-Walim is the best example, even me and my friends sometimes have little problems when try to spell this name fast, but i have to say that Polish stages are very climatic, and specially the tarmac ones gives very good vibes of Poland's Silesia region. Kormoran stage is near my home so it was my point of honor to end this stage at least once (it was freaking hard but done it some way) and now im researching whole internet and asking my family where exactly this rally was, so wish me good luck and be quick on stage. Cheers!

@EXCER35 Thats really cool! Yes some very cool roads out where you live, please let me know if you end up visiting them.

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing could be hard to find exactly this stage from RBR (Kormoran I and II), but some places from Rally Poland 2023 (ERC) and RP 2005 (WRC) were driven by me on bike, and i have to admit that there are many places nearby that are worthy to consider as Round of Polish Rally Championship or even Polish ERC Round (unless they move to Silesia). Poland with this narrow tarmac, and fast gravel stages are really good place to go rallying, but because of bad organization in Polish Motor Association we have what we have. Really unused potential.

@@Channel_smart I have 2 early builds of the game, just gathering footage for a preview. :)

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing ok

@mike_33gt I mean I wouldn't complain at least in the winter if that were the case...lol but good question

@HyperMr-gc2gg Thank you for the advice, I just really wasn't doing well in this video. This is also during a livestream event. I have had a lot of world records (that are probably beaten by now) this is a bad example of my driving, I am literally showing all my mistakes from 2 back to back 45km stages. This is a mix from 2 stages. But you are correct, I'm fucking up in these examples. Lol

@@Countrymusicnumber1 nice to hear how it's doing in the wild! The owner and designer of the simdid line of products seems really cool and down to earth, loving that he's into rally! Hope to see a stick sequential and a handbrake from him.

@BrokenanklesFPV you can set it up however you want, I did that cause I didn't know what else to do with the extra lights, as I mentioned in the video, I programmed the left four to let me know my fuel levels but this game didn't send that info I don't think. You can program it to do whatever you want it to display. :)

@@BrokenanklesFPV in simhub that is.

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing yeah looks like a nice unit i think those would typically be for TC an ABS

@BrokenanklesFPV interesting, thank you for watching man!

Lol why do you say that?

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing It was just an awesome presentation...

@@Plutoman09 really? Thank you man!

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing No. Thank you !

Cool thing about it is, if it's in the right location, you can see all the main information in your peripheral vision. If you're anything like me, you get lost in the gears and it's hard to remember what gear you are in lol

Yes, I finally understand! :)

@@SleepyPantsSimRacingthey are amazing and definitely some useful features

@OverNightLuthier really? What are the chances? I just picked on a random really interesting video thumbnail and it was you. That's great! I hope to see more from you in the future.

@SleepyPantsSimRacing Oh most definitely, when I make another video, you'll be the first to know!

@@lukebraddford3287 really? That's really cool to hear, so you have fully adapted it sounds like.

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing I just prefer my hand close to my wheel. Taking the hand fully off the wheel I find slows me down. I can shift much quicker with it. Love your channel mate!

@lukebraddford3287 I agree, it is a faster method and has a level of satisfaction that can't be found in a regular paddle shifter set.

Ya, you are definitely well stocked on gear! Lol

@@OverNightLuthieryes! Think I will go for a moza seq or maybe buy another one and move my moza seq from my simagic rig

Lol

Total edge lord

@wangoh-uo1gn the wheel was sent for review purposes, I think it retails for 300ish from simdids website and 200ish from aliexpress if I recall. You can definitely add spacers. There are 4 screws out of the 6 that engage with the qr. The other two hold the wheel to the button box. I'm not super familiar with simhub. I only used it for the simdid Gauges and an onscreen dash at one point. Using this wheel with different games feels identical as you are able to map the buttons to whatever you'd like. The stitching on my unit seemed well done, I did notice the stitching was in a different location than what I am used to, but I think it's strategic to add durability. I have busted threads near the thumbs on many wheel rims. This one that is used on the simdid is stitched in a way that puts less stress on the threads. I don't foresee this one busting at the thumb location or any other location. Console compatibility is a tough question, I believe there are third-party hubs that allow you to use aftermarket gear on consoles, but I can't speak on it as I have no experience with it. I would say no just to be safe, but I'm sure it's possible since it's a simple usb connection. The wheel rim by itself, I didn't feel the weight of, but the whole setup is a roughly similar weight to all the other wheel/button box combos I've held in my hands. Keep in mind the button box is mostly carbon fiber on the front and light aluminum for the shell, and plastic buttons etc. The encoder knobs are aluminum. I wouldn't call it light per se but it's not like mounting a barbell to your wheelbase or anything. As for the bottom encoders, I can't see myself adjusting those mid-rally reliably unless I'm on a straight or something. The easiest buttons to manipulate while driving in order are. 1. Paddle shifters (of course lol) 2. The 4 closest buttons to your thumbs 3. The two gold encoder/7 way hat switches by the thumbs. The other buttons are definitely possible but I wouldn't want to have to use those mid-race. The buttons I mentioned are the only ones I would recommend for driving use. As for what I have the bottom red encoder set to, they are for seat adjustment, enter, escape and scrolling up,down,left, and right in menus.

@wangoh-uo1gn and the connection is super robust. It seems like it might even be waterproof or resistant from the look of it. The cable is super high-quality feeling, and I'd say it's maybe 3-4mm thick if memory serves correctly. The cable is probably around 5 or 6 feet stretched out if I had to guess.

@wangoh-uo1gn and yes I had to use my own quick release, it is mounted from the front if I didn't already mention it.

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions 👍 I just subscribed and I like your sense of enthusiasm and humour! P.s you don’t sound sleepy at all lol Take care

@wangoh-uo1gn lol I used to simrace in pajamas mostly and I'm always underslept. Lol that's mostly because I am always working on something. :) thank you for the sub and thank you for the comment! I appreciate the questions. :)

@Plutoman09 lol There's probably some way to adjust them but the thing feels so good in hand. Best feeling buttons I've ever felt, hands down.

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing Ya baby ! I bet they feel really good with those "man hands" of yours !! Ohhh. The love talk🧚💋😍🤣

Lol it kinda does, it's a Thicc Boi. I really like the connection. It seems like I could pour a Coca Cola directly on it and continue watering the backyard 3 mins later, no prob.

The Alcantara actually does wear even with gloves. A new wheel will often leave little black chunks in your lap if you notice. It goes away once the oils kind of soak in. I have worn away quite a few wheel rims. :)

​@@DouglasThompson For sure, it's not indestructible - badly worded on my part. But people are quick to jump to the conclusion that it's worn super quickly when really it's just gunked up

I do also want to add, "wear" doesn't always mean the material leaves just that it gets damaged. For instance a pair of jeans could be considered "worn" if you were to spill oil or mustard on them. Well...also you are literally wearing them lol. Anyway, Alcantara is more susceptible to wear because of the material, a smooth leather/pleather wheel is a bit easier to maintain and more resilient to damage.

Thank you, Mid!

@@SIMRIG412 Sleepy's back, tell a friend.

What a trader! Went from wood to metal how dare him 😂

@@SIMRIG412 I loathe him!!!

Lol ya, was wearing headphones all morning getting footage for these items...

You should definitely find some good headphones that don’t go on your head though. It’s been proven that wearing headphones as long as gamers do does indeed create a dent that doesn’t just eventually go away. If left for to long wearing them, your head will actually soften and restructure itself to conform to the band that wraps your head. Sort of equivalent to the different types of tribes and clans that do things to change their appearance like the stretching of the necks and lip discs for instance. Just food for thought. You know. Looking out for people 😊

@Emily_Remmy wow...I didn't know that. I'm gonna have to do some research now...

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing most definitely! It’s causing issues with migraines and headaches of all kinda too. Never thought wearing headphones in genera would make people have to take medicine. Figured it would have been hearing aids because of the sound, not the head band. But I want to clarify that I wasn’t being a nob in the first comment. Just looking out! Have a blessed one

@@Emily_Remmy I thought it was funny, I noticed it too and thought it made the video funnier.

I usually do too but this wheel feels special man. Getting footage for the review now actually.

@@SleepyPantsSimRacingyou know I can’t wait for the review! And not trash talking it at all like I said just that cable gets annoying. One reason I don’t want to use my gt Neo on my moza r12 and will just buy the moza ks wheel

@SIMRIG412 I found if you just wrap the cable around the shaft once it doesn't hang.

@@SleepyPantsSimRacingya just always afraid it’s going to pull and fuck the connection up

@SIMRIG412 lol I feel you

@toyotalovah ya man, I appreciate that! I will be back soon. I am waiting till September to give my body time to heal. This is the longest I've taken time off from racing and when I come back I'm going to take things easy and not overdo it. :) thank you man

@Hailstrom2003 I can't remember the name but it's like the only 40km stage in rbrpro. Was absolutely brutal and it was back to back too if I remember correctly.

@BamaMike7187 is that what you want to see? The mini feels great but it doesn't feel as good as the V3.

@nigelqflarp They are actually, what kind of update are you looking for?

Check out the 3drap wheel rim and shifter paddles for the C5... the wheel seems to much of a hassle, but the paddles seem interesting...

Same. I'm dreading pulling mine apart to see what I can do. I kind of have a plan, but don't know if it'll work until I pull the thing apart.

@pogoprofilms I still haven't successfully got a c5 apart, let me know how it goes. I was planning on making a tutorial to switch out the wheel but after trying for a good while to get it apart, I decided it would be best to not make a tutorial so as not to risk people's money if they damage something while disassembling it. I let cammus know this would be a big deal for some users but thier priority was to make it small and light for shipping and travel reasons.

Ya, it speaks go-kart to me as well but keep in mind Cammus has a bit of bias towards go-karts since they make them! ;) lol

Yes, the simdid feels beefy but the ergonomics are inferior to the simdid. Thank you for sharing your experiences with both!

Ya the simlab one is super solid, highly recommended by yours truly.

I'm a stick sequential guy personally, I would use these for windshield wipers and headlights personally. Same with any paddle shifters though. Even wheel mounted shifters I use for headlights and windshield wipers.

I think there are 4 or 5 companies that make a push-pull, good to see it gaining popularity.

@@SleepyPantsSimRacingyes. I do like the simdid for my second rig

@SIMRIG412 ya, check aliexpress, they can be even cheaper then the simdid website. It was like 100 dollars to my location.

Thank you man! You healing up?

@@SleepyPantsSimRacingwelcome. And yes no pain just can’t really use my hand. I appreciate you asking

Ya and it's not an unreasonable price for this level of quality. Reminds me of simagic quality for better prices.
