I also separate my brake and gas more because I like to use my left foot on the brake

@@kylesimpson5331 I’ve looked into those! Do those have their own software or do you configure them in Simhub? Maybe those will be my next upgrade…

​@@alanwu1490 you can use the simmagic software, but they work better with sim hub. You use the same configuration tools your using for your but shakers.

@@arisverrett9084 you know that scene from Spider-Man (Toby Maguire) when he woke up after being bit by the spider and all of a sudden he was able to see clearly? It’s like that man. No joke. I couldn’t believe the visuals when I saw it for the first time. Maybe the PS5 Pro is different but I only have the first model PS5. I’m really happy with the PC!

@@alanwu1490 man, I bet!

@@GuitarMike1300 thank you for the comment! I do race sometimes in VR, I have the Meta Quest 3 and I connect it via the Quest Link cable. It is too damn realistic man. The first time I tried it was on Laguna Seca and I flew off the corkscrew and almost threw up. The reaction was so intense and visceral. I can’t do VR racing for more than 15-20 minutes without feeling nauseous. A fan in the face helps a bit but I can’t do it for a long session. Do you like racing in VR? Also, look on FB marketplace for used buttkickers. I got my mini concert on FB marketplace for $120 brand new in box!!

@@alanwu1490 Try just going on some very steady drives in VR, convertible cars seem to help on tracks without much undulation. Everyone is different but for me, as soon as I built up a tolerance it stuck. I have gone months without using it, jump back on and have no problems. Also menthol gum is a good shout if you're feeling queasy..!

Thank you for the comment and I 100% agree!! I need to post an update to the rig. I've made some upgrades and I'm still loving the G Pro wheel and pedal!

@@tockc good thinking! I’ve already done that! 😁

@@JamesThomas-pv5en thank you!! Sounds like your kid is going to nail the driving test when it’s time 😁

Great question and very valid concern. The only reason why I upgraded my G923 and driving cockpit is to increase the immersion. I'd say depending on your financial situation, only upgrade if you want to feel the road and the car more. And if you have a feeling that you may not want to play GT 7 after finishing the campaign, I'd recommend sticking with your G923. Cheers!

I think the main reason to play GT7 is the online daily races? I found the campaign boring and only really wanted to unlock the sport mode so I could compete in online races against the community. It's highly competitive, but so good.

Great question!! I played for years on a PS5 but recently built a PC just for sim driving and the difference is insane. I don't think I can go back. To answer your question on flat screen vs curved screen, I think it does come down to personal choice and what you're trying to accomplish. If you're going for immersion, the curved screen will be superior because you'll "feel" more like you're in the car compared to the flat screen. There are people that have triple curved monitors for the ultimate immersion! Lol And for the FOV, I did mess with it. I try to line up the dash to the edge of my steering wheel. I literally sat in my real car, took a photo of what my view looked like and tried to recreate that in the game. One bummer is that my screen isn't very wide so I can't see too far left & right of the windshield.

You're gonna love the G Pro set up!!! Your face is going to hurt from smiling for hours and your forearms and shoulders are gonna hurt from the 11 nm of torque hahaha

Thank you!!

It says in a different commment

I got the "Marada Aluminum Profile Racing Simulator Cockpit With Monitor Stand" from Amazon. Sometimes they go on sale for like $200 off.

LOL, I KNOW!! My arms were sore after the first session

Hi! I got the "Marada Aluminum Profile Racing Simulator Cockpit With Monitor Stand" from Amazon and it did come with the seat. It's super comfortable and the rig is sooooo sturdy. Even with the output of the wheel turned up to 11 nm of torque, there is no flex at all. I would watch for price drops and coupons because I got it for $500 during a flash sale.

Hey there! The wheel is absolutely amazing. It really makes the G923 feel like a toy... The paddle shifters are louder compared to the G923 but I wouldn't say they're loud. I have a buddy that has a Thrust Master DD wheel that has a louder paddle shifter. At some point during my video, you can hear the paddle shifters relative to my speaking voice.

@alanwu1490 thankyou for the reply mate, very much appreciated

thanks man! You gotta do a video on the simagic motors for the pedals!

I literally just had my first session on the pro after having my g920 for 9 years. Its a different world. Going to take a while to get used to it, but man, you realise the belt driven wheels are just toys

That's what i switched from!! Thank you!

@@Silkysime I know EXACTLY what you mean!!

I had my G923 for a little over a year and enjoyed every moment of it! Only upgrade when you're ready! :)

Had my g923 for about a year, I want to upgrade too thinking of doing the same, but the price tag for the pro is throwing me off vs the fanatec…

@KnGNova6 well the key is to save up. £25 a week or £100 a month will be a guarantee after 1 year. Lol...

@@KnGNova6 depending on where you live, fanatec will cost you 3 to 4 times the amount.

​@@KnGNova6 Keep an eye out for sales. The Logitech pro has had its refurbished units on sale for as low as $500 recently. The pedals were on sale for as low as $220. As long as you're not on console I'd advise buying some simjacks or Simsonn pro pedals first. I own a fanatec CSL DD 8nm as well and it's a very good wheel. Buy the boost kit off Amazon or Alliexpress though for like 30-$50. I personally don't advise getting the load cell upgrade, but rather save up and buy some pedals elsewhere if possible.

thank you!! LOVING IT so far

thank you!!

Thank you!! I will have to try racing socks! Any recommendations?

@@alanwu1490 Gloves....you are going to need gloves.....trust me on that...the side your thumbs will thank you

@@alanwu1490 Sorry, I thought I answered this. I bought my socks from Morad Racing. He's a local GT3 driver. He sells gloves and socks. The gloves I bought on Amazon. Karting gloves. Pretty cheap.

@@snoopy_peanuts_77 That's where my first pair of gloves split. After two years of daily use.

Yeah the stock wheel on the pro sucks IMHO. I really wish they would replace it. I prefer the round wheel from the RS hub but wish they had a wheel similar to the one that comes with the base CSL DD r2r bundle.

Oh you're going to love it so much more once you dial in the positioning! Enjoy friend!

thank you!!

Of course!! I had no idea people would watch it! Glad you enjoyed it.

😎😎

Hmmm, I string for myself so I don’t really care what the actual tension is as long as it’s the same. But if you know it’s always 4 pounds over, why not set the tensioner 4 pounds less to account for the over-tension? Just a thought. 😅

@@alanwu1490 I agree but I assume I'm doing something wrong and cant figure it out.

Hell yeah!! Good to know!! :D

Zero has the best snapback in the game!! It was recommended to me by my friend, Time410s!

Hey Mo! The upgraded battery was essential to me because I have to drive a ways to find a large parking lot so I wanted to maximize my run time. If you have a quiet street nearby I think the 1500mah battery will be fine. One thing that I purchased recently that's a game changer is a much more powerful charger. With the new charger, I'm able to charge up the battery pack in about 30 -45 minutes instead of the hours with the provided charger. Best of luck!

@@alanwu1490 Yes my 1500mah dies quick when using full throttle. I do find the car is pushing too hot so 2 batteries (1500mah) is all I would do before letting the car rest. I bought an arrma senton after only one day with the 144001 because I want to run on grass and take it to the dog park.

@@overnightclassic2 hope you’re enjoying the Senton!!

@@alanwu1490 yeah it's pretty good. The 144001 is more stable and easier to drive surprisingly. 144001 is also feels faster than arrma senton on 2s because it is smaller. arrma senton really is faster though and the brushless motor is more speedy and quicker to accelerate. on 3s it's a lot faster. overall the wltoys is better for the money and even the 1500mah battery is good. I run 5200 in the senton and it lasts so long Also I hate how the senton collects leaves and dirt inside. I run it with hairnets over the chassis

Thanks for your comment! The first thing I did when I got the car was check the shocks and the diff. The shocks were filled with oil on 3 out 4. The 4th one had some but was less a third full. The diffs had grease in it but I added a bit more. I think it’s a good idea to check these things before running the car for the first time. It’s also a way to learn about your car! :)

Hey Joel! Sorry about the late reply! I don’t check my RUclips account often. Did you resolve your question? If not, I can try to help.

Great solution, Andrew! Even better!! Just pinned your comment to the top so others can see, too. Thanks!

@@alanwu1490 cheers Alan! I'm very much a novice who loves his new 144001. I purchased a 2600mah battery and had this strap problem. Good luck with your channel.

Hm, could you clarify the question, please? The battery should be able to be connected to the charger regardless of the size. Are you asking about connecting the battery to the charger?

@@alanwu1490 im wondering if i need to buy a new charger to charge the extra battery

@@scriptverse4135 Ohh, I see. I guess you could and that will speed up the charging process. I only have the stock charger and it's awfully slow. lol I normally charge both batteries and then take the car out for a spin.

@@alanwu1490 how long does 1 battery last?

@@scriptverse4135 It depends on how you drive the car. I have the 2600 mAh batteries and one lasts about 15 minutes or so.

Thank you!! Glad you found it helpful! :D
