Did you buy the shifter from aliexpress too (and from the same link)? I am considering buying one, but I'm not sure if I can trust the site/seller.
@@slushy142 Yes, the link is the one I bought. I've used AliExpress often.
Excellent product.
We are living in such a great time where 3rd party solutions are killing it
bad or good thing ?
Wow; Never seen something so elegantly and smartly put together; Well done China; Thanks for showing it to us @Sim Racing Corner
Im pretty sure the shifter with the switch on the shaft is for range changing in the truck sim games (going from 1-6 to 7-12 etc)
Yes but you can use the switch for headlight or stuff if you would like
There 2 switches on the trucks shifter. One for range the other is a splitter.. some trucks have a third button for engine brake
As soon as you showed the internal setup for that stick, that was indeed a very clever design. I'm actually going to snag one of these for my setup. The price is just too good for also how easy it is to fix yourself.
yeh the design is actually genius, so simple
Excellent video fella.
They look like Ender 3 Bed levelling springs on the inside which provide the lever tension, so possibly upgradable to firm it up further.
Yeah, they do look like 3D printer springs.
Such simple and efficient design. I have a Logitech shifter, and about one year later, it started going into the wrong gear. Because it internally works like a joystick, the possibility of error is much higher. I disassembled it but see nothing that could be wrong... I will try to repair it though, and then I will sell it because I had enough of Logitech, and I will then buy this shifter. Logi developed this internal shifter design 20 years ago, and did not even improve it or swap it out for a more efficient design.
I thought my SHH Shifter was good value for money but i think this unit takes that crown, nice video mate and cant wait to see it action.
Thank you very much for this! Thanks to you video of the internals I could rebuild this and print most of the party with a 3d printer. I used hall-effect sensors instead of switches. But it works really good. Actually a genius way to build this.
Awesome teardown. Very simple mechanism! Thanks for this video.
I made my own years ago with the exact same design.. I used cabinet door latches to hold the metal rod in place.. for the electronics I used the internals of a cheap old PC gamepad ..
From what I'm seeing and hearing, at the price this thing is a steal.
It’s a good price but long shipping
@@Louis-lu5wh mine only comes at the end of next month :(
I got in contact with a seller on Taobao ( A Chinese ecommerce site) and they're going for 225CNY there (around US$35!). The seller says, it is interchangeable and you can get the full version with both the sequential movement limiter, and the range selector. You can pull out the wire for the range selector and disconnect the switch, and use it as a regular 6 speed h-shifter or sequential gearbox. Many of the feedback on the seller's site are commenting that it is very tight, but I guess the springs can be changed with some sourcing around. Apparently these are of a generic design in China because there are many sellers but all have the same housing... the only difference is the shift knob.
I haven't come across any version of this shifter that comes with a sequential mode. I'm very curious to see how that functions based on the confines of the design.
@@SimRacingCorner it's not really sequential mode but rather a physical tab that prevents left and right movement and locking in place,then I guess you have to map it to shift up and down controls
@@the_sausage Is there a piece to that, which presses the switches too and reduces the forward/back throw, as just locking the lateral movement isn't enough. As the gear stick will get captured and not recenter otherwise.
@@SimRacingCorner I ordered one,I'll update when it arrives. Probably in 2 to 3 weeks.
Anyway the seller has a video of it in use at the item page
bit.ly/3imrn5x
@UCT7JApUJPhBmVwoLb2o9HWA Awesome, thanks. My review for this shifter will probably be uploaded then.
I would love to see someone showing the difference in sound after some sound dampening. I believe it'd be fairly simple and effective.
Just got mine not too long ago, been thinking about this very same idea. Currently waiting on the GT Omega Prime to go back in stock (US) so I can start building my rig. Once I have everything situated, I’m gunna try dampening it and see if I can upload a video for those who are interested
@@macsgo2hell let me know! I'm getting mine tomorrow and might throw some foam tape I have laying around in there. I'm sure something like Dynamat would work really well too.
@@AlexTurbo Update: I haven’t messed around with sound deadening yet but I did buy a Mishimoto shift knob (MMSK-KB) since the shape is good for both sequential and h-pattern shifting. Still have yet to mount it to a chassis since its still on back order but the feel of it after rowing through the gears is insaneeeeeee. And no mods are necessary since the shift knob comes with thread adapters that perfectly fit the threads of the shifter
@@macsgo2hell I got mine and put that foam tape I had laying around inside, installed a PE top plate from AliExpress, and put a cheap carbon shift knob similar to the Mishimoto one on it. So far so good, still pretty loud but not nearly as pingy as it was.
it's surprisingly well built. my only concern would be EMI as i had ton of it with my 6dof built and even had to switch from arduino to Leo Bodnar electronics...
Any new H pattern on the market is welcome.
There are versions without and with additional switch. How is it wired? Maybe the 8 gear version can be converted to 7+switch too because the 8th gear is wired as a switch and if You put 1st gear while having 8th engaged externally by a switch it gives You higher range of gears? Sorry for complicated description.
I reckon the top plate could/should be a bit thicker - it seems a tad thin.
Otherwise looks pretty good though; thanks for the video! 👍👍👍
this is my friend's design!!
I bought this shifter, I really love but it doesn't work on my pc due a driver error. Any chance I can contact your friend to ask a question how to fix it
@@renuxgraffiti Same here. Mine worked for 1 week. Then the driver is corrupted, and disconnects constantly. Poor circuit board design. Or mine is a dud.
@@StatsGam4er any luck contacting the seller?
@@jonathanchung7209 Yes they sent me a replacement board. But not confident in the longevity of the product.
I'm using one of these, its really good for the price.
I think it’s cool. Being as tho is all metal. Maybe durable. But car shifters are not spring loaded. Snapping in to gear. Its more of a magnet feeling. Then spring loaded shot into gear
Yes also in the rear car the shifter is spring loaded, laterally
What a great find.
anyone else going to steal this design and make your own
If we get the one with the switch on the shaft, can it be used as a regular 1-6 shifter if we unplug the switch? Or does it need some mods to do that?
Did you figure this out? I want to know as well
@@AlexTurbo yes,I'm using it as a regular 6 speed shifter when the toggle is removed
I have the same shifter but i have a problem that every fifteen minutes it just shuts off. So i can play for 15 minutes exactly untill the gears stop working, the blue light on the platine is still on tho. And when i plug it out and in again it works fine for 15 minutes. Any solutions?
Must say it looks pretty good for the price!😺👍
It gets a positive 🔨🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🔨 ratting from me!👍
hey R-VR, i was tempted to upgrade to the t300rs gt from my g29, but an H pattern shifter looks so expensive. the t38a is over $300nzd... so i am looking at this shifter. have you added it to your (massive) collection by any chance? ;-)
@@socks2441 Man that s**ks mate!..
Sorry I haven't, one low budget shifter I have tried and liked is the SHH, but that is still almost double this one. SRC have also tried quite a few shifters, so I think this could be worth picking up as a cheap alternetive.
@@RVRCloset ah, thanks for the feedback. I bet you were tempted though, haha. Every shifter out there shivers in its boots when you approach
@@socks2441 Hahaha, yeah I wish I could try them all!..😬😅
I was just wondering what the diameter of the steel shaft that the gear stick attaches to?
I'm sure I would have mentioned that in the video.
@@SimRacingCorner I'll watch again later on. Watching when my Son's in bed is tricky! 🤣👍
Here's the main review ruclips.net/video/XWoIdenloAc/видео.html. I will have definitely covered that detail there.
Thank you for the video. I'm really well impressed! I love low budget design! 3D Printing a top plate with the H Pattern would be nice to reduce noise and wear! I don't need a one more H pattern shifter, but I feel the need to have this, and make improvements... Hall effect sensor...???
Have you got it? And done some mods to it? This is so modable piece of kit and wld be great to see someone smarter doing something To it... HA sensor for example :) 👌
@@fomami sorry. i never bought it. do you have one? and if you do, do you have problems?
@@tiagopvianaYes I have it In use with no problems at all. One of the best investments for my sim racing as I paid only 45 euros 😎
@@tiagopviana And I added sound absorbion material inside to it and now it makes a better sound. That is the only mod this far....
@@fomami Which material did you use for this?
Seeing the internals now has me excited to mod the shifter. I am going to reduce the tension between switches by replacing the spring to something a little more loose. I just find it annoying to have to really force the shifter so hard. Wish me luck lol
yeah it seems really moddable and adjustable. It'd probably be a good idea to add something you can put on top to block the 7th gear gate for 6 gear cars as it'd be annoying to hit it by accident. Also perhaps making the reverse gate give a little more resistance than the other gates, maybe a tiny leaf spring or something. Another thing is that I've seen people complain about too much side-to-side tension, but from this teardown, it seems like it should be adjustable simply by unscrewing the nuts holding the springs just a tiny bit.
Hi I need to know wether this is compatible with my thrustmaster PS4 rig please let me know ASAP
No it is not you will need a thrust master shifter
Thankyou from Canada
How would I mount this onto a normal table? is there any video's on it because i cant find one...
also is this something i could just plug into my PC and use?
pls help
There's is an optional table clamp accessory available. It's PC plug and play, no driver required.
@@SimRacingCorner Is there a link to it anywhere? I really want to buy one but cant find one with a clamp. Also one thats preferably cheap... Thanks in advance!
What guage did you use to measure the pulling force please? Is it a simple digital weighing guage for weighting luggage? Thanks for the teardown and review, it made me buy one!
Yes, I used a digital luggage scale.
@@SimRacingCorner thanks! That's a pretty clever low cost solution!
So I bought a Civic SI (M10 x 1.5) shift knob and i am unsure of what adapter i should get. Can someone guide me on what M8 adapter i should get?
Hi, my fourth gear is broken, do you know how can be fixed? If I put the sequencial plastic it works, but without it no. Thank you very much!
It sounds like the lever isn't fully pressing the micro switch. The lever is thin metal, so you just need to bend it out a bit.
@@SimRacingCorner It was that. I have straightened the lever and it now works correctly. It had folded. Thank you so much!
does it work in snowrunner with t248 steering wheel ?
Hi nice video, i have one, but my gear 1 & 2 in on the same button. I can't select gear 1 or 2 beacause of that... (sry my english is bad ^^)
This shifter look stronger than my logitech shifter lool
More chinese sim product reviews. Subbed
Thanks for the sub! Definitely, more to come, Chinese sim products are one of my specialist subjects!
So I gotta ask....nobody made one of these for PS5? They're always for pc.Can't believe somone hasn't modded one yet. How hard would it be? I can't find any info anywhere.
Well PC has the benefit of just needing whatever device standard, consoles are a LOT more specific, for no good reason tbh.
Hello guys! Any hack/mod to make this shifter less noisy? I mean some kind of isolation trick. Thanks in advance!
a guy earlier commented that he used some sound deadening material used for airflow pipes and that sort. from what i can tell from this video, using a plastic type of material for the top plate may reduce sound and also the two springs at the bottom that center the shifter; those i think may be 'metal on metal' (from what i can tell anyway) so i would install some kind of small rubber washer or something of that sort in between the bracket and spring.
@@bigjame26 Thanks!
I got one of these but it's better and worse than yours.. mine has hall effect sensors which id prefer over microswitches but mine also has a plastic top plate rather than metal, I've smashed it for the last couple months and never had an issue but i would of preferred if it was made of metal.. i would not recommend the 8 gated version like i got because mis shifting from 4th to 7th is too easy, i wish id of gotten the 6 speed instead.. if only i could find someone who sells just the top plate piece made of metal with 6 speed and reverse layout.
I am looking for a 3d print file of the 6+r pattern. can some one help
It is just for pc ?
does this feel better (more realistic ) compare to logitech th8a shifter?
Yes it does
@@SimRacingCorner sweet gona try to pick one up, i also see an all black version that looks just like this, you happen to know if there are any difference?
@@623baller It's the same with just a different paint job.
I just picked this up a week ago. I prefer my Thrustmaster TH8A for racing games but I love this shifter for American Truck Simulator. If I had to pick one this would win hands down. I would use sequential setup for racing.
Planning to upgrade my wheel, pedals and shifter; Currently running the G25 complete kit; Do you have any recommendations as for the next level products? I'd really appreciate your input; Thanks much!
Fanatec CSL DD and some load cell pedals :D
The Thrustmaster T300/TX is a good and affordable next step up over the Logitech wheels. Watch my review from a couple of days ago. ruclips.net/video/um4stxL8lGs/видео.html.
@@SimRacingCorner IMO it's depends of his budget. If he arleady have g25 and asking for upgrade, he propably really want to stay in hobby so there's no point of doing steps upgrade and go straight to what he can afford because he spends a lot less money than if he do next step and next little step upgrades.
@@FirssenSimracing Indeed, considering it's a G25, my logic is based on someone who is still using a pretty old wheel setup in 2021. I'm not expecting the use case in these circumstances would justify jumping to the cost of the CSL DD.
parabens, sells only electrical part?
nice gearbox ;-)
is it compatible with ps5
Would it be possible to move the bottom bracket to move the mounting holes to either side? Thinking of attaching to my rig. What's the length of one of the sides of the base too? Thanks!
That isn't possible as the internal mechanism is attached to the same piece as the bracket. The width is 8.5cm.
@@SimRacingCorner thanks for the quick reply. Can the mechanism not be rotated as their looks to be 6 screw holes on the bottom plate.
@@theboyrobuk Those extra holes are for screwing on the optional table clamp. None line up the mechanism. But there's nothing stopping you from drilling a couple of new holes then rotating it. It's simple enough where that would be possible.
@@SimRacingCorner Great thanks for the reply, and the content! Keep up the good work!
@@theboyrobuk You're welcome Rob. And cheers.👍
work in mac?
Does it come with a table clamp? Can it be used as well as a sequential shifter?
No and No.
Thanks!
is it possible to mod it to make it better?
oil it, smooth as butter now
@@KAJJTAN is there a way to adjust the tension becus my 3 and 4 gear are good feeling but everything else is hard becus its puling it back to neutral.
I'm struggling to come up with ways how to clamp this to a table
When you go to buy one, they actually offer a clamp as well for a small additional charge. you could also hard-mount of course.
@@Tkdmaster1991 25$ for the clamp lmao
@@yourbestfriendtuananh3024 When I ordered mine, it was like $10, gotta love that price hike..
Todo em metal, belo acabamento...
Is it binded or do you have to install some drivers?
No drivers required. It's effectively a button box that you map each gear in game.
@@SimRacingCorner Great find dude!
@@SimRacingCorner Great! Maybe next vid we can find a button box because i really need one for my setup!
I'd recommend going down the Elgato Stream Deck route for the button box.
@@SimRacingCorner Thx
Have you tried playing forza horizon/motorsport, dirt 5, wreckfest, beamng? Does this shifter support them?
You just have to set the binds, it's literally some buttons and you can bind them to anything.
@@Cloudrak NFS cant
@@orangechannel4862 cus NFS is shit
would this be compatible with the Logitech g29 wheel?
Yes, on PC only though.
Does it work with thrustmaster t150?
Yes, on PC only.
When will you post video of them in action?
In the main review that will be in a couple of weeks time.
@@SimRacingCorner eagerly waiting
Will this shifter fit aftermarket knobs?
Yes, it's M8 threaded.
Another great vid... Any chance you will be trying the aluminum Q1r copies on aliexpress, ebay etc? Thanks bud
You've read my mind, I have bought a set of the QR1 copies. We'll have a look at those soon.
@@SimRacingCorner Awesome, eagerly awaiting that one 👍 Does it come as a set? Or individual pieces? Thank you
@@elcid4130 Either way, so only buy the base side piece once.
@@SimRacingCorner sweet also waiting for your verdict on those
Can this shifter work for beamng and Assetto corsa?
Yes
Is it compatible with thrustmaster tmx pro
It's a standalone shifter that plugs into your PC that works with any wheelbase.
@@SimRacingCorner oh thank you so much
Is it Arduino pcb based?
Yes
@@SimRacingCorner so, assuming i can make a code and use it for other aplication other than gaming can i program it?
@@ricardojorgepacheco1717 I would say so, yes.
how does it compare to shh?
No idea, I haven't tried the SHH.
No idea how you responded faster than i could press the sub button LOL. Thanks .
@@lethargic2221 Just good timing. At some point, I would like to pick up an SHH to review. They do look good for the money.

On PC you can
@@SimRacingCorner thx bro
Btw. Nice Video🔥🔥🤙🏼
@@sebastianernstberger1858 Cheers man.
Does it work on ps4
No
супер
NO way this exists I dont need to save £100 to get a logitech shifter then a really expensive adapter to usb finally i dont need to upgrade my driving force gt
A logitech Shifter is £35 not £100?
@@xyboost6585 yeah im talking about the adapter and stuff combined with it is probably not £100 tho lol
so it's basically a button box with a lever
Does it work on thrustmaster t150?
Yes, you just need a usb slot
