Happy birthday! A DD wheel is a washing machine engine with different electronics attached to it.
LOL don't tell my wife........
Cool, I missed the springs in the front..
I don't have a rip in my seat or a point under where I can attach a belt, but moving the mounting points forward on the side mounts made the seat belt keep it's place down more towards my thighs, and made it better. 😊
glad to be of help mate....works fine this way.... hope we can race together soon ;-)
@@channelvr1293 That's what is so great with yt and communities, getting and giving ideas! 😁👍
Same here bud!! And thanks!
Considering selling my DD2. I want more road feel. Its very strong but I want more feel.
Hmm any idea what you would buy instead? Not complaining about my DD1 but in all honesty I liked my clubsport 2'5 just as much 🤔😉
@@channelvr1293 I've heard others say that. I feel like fanatec hasn't dialed in their dd wheels like they did their 2.5 wheel. I dont know how long it will take for them to do that. Im looking at VRS and Simucube 2 pro. I've heard that both of those are better than fanatec. Its a real shame that the road feel just isn't there
Thanks for proving to me that you are in fact a manly manly man who can take 100%, but I'd be curious to know what you think of it in the 25-50% range.
OH YEAH i'm the man...LOL nope this was just a unboxing and installation... 2 early for a review ...but have to say at around 44% i get the best FF i have ever encountered.....
@@channelvr1293 Well COOL. For the second half of this video I was yelling-- constantly-- THEN TURN IT DOWN!!! Lol. I hope you post a video with it dialed in how you like it.
Hello Channel VR nice channel , thank you for sharing this video+ 1 subscriber👍👍👍👍👍👍 great job , well done😀😀😀😀😀
thanks .....college chef !
Late congrats to both your birthday and DD wheel buddy!! 🎉🍻
Sure looking good, but I wold have to do so many adjustments to fit that beast in my closet.. . 😅
Have been thinking of adding seat belts with springs to my NLR V3.
thanks mate....moving that 3th rig to my office soon so i can race you guys in the afternoon...and get some much needed practice
@@channelvr1293 Sounds awesome man!! 💪👍
@@channelvr1293 Adjustments done, DD ordered, will get here tuesday! Can't wait!!..😃
@@RVRCloset OMG you are actually going for it......woehaaa....start working those muscles...;-)
@@channelvr1293 Thought with both upgraded high end shifter and pedals, it's time to go DD as well..😁
I just connected with your channel. I look forward to checking out more of your content.
thanks mate....dont really have time to make lots of vids but trying to pick up the pace...
Why would you keep increasing the ffb when your struggling to turn the car. 50% is way to high for a GT type car, you never even checked the other parameters on the base. Why do folks seem to think high ffb is realistic, get real buddy and adjust the settings correctly or don't bother doing pointless videos.
Hold your horses.....LOL i was just testing the wheel .. not trying to replicate real driving..... meanwhile i have setup the wheel and mostly use it at 45% the rest like gain i adjust in the game menu depending on what sim it is.... works perfectly now.
@@channelvr1293 why not show folks setting up the wheel, people that watch this type of video know all about the high torque these DD wheels can produce. What we won't to know about is fidelity and accuracy , is it worth the step up from belt drive ? Arsing around just pisses me off.
@@MrSrimera Well you saw the video so you know i just installed it and tried it...wouldn't be fair of me to judge the wheel without trying it and all the settings for a while.. like the intro says "my first DD wheel "
@@channelvr1293 I'm wondering wether to pull the trigger on a Fanatec DD base but have not yet seen a really satisfying review on them. All we get is unboxing or videos like yours so it's probably the frustration in me coming out. Wish someone would do a good review instead of bragging about the fact they've got one.
@@MrSrimera driving as we speak....and 'im getting more and more feedback from the wheel...I'm doing 10 rounds in the DD then 10 rounds in the clubsport 2.5... so yeah after a while you really feel a major difference....and i dont mean the FORCE but more the suitableness of the wheel ...my body reacts quicker to it so it must be sending me better info....TO BE CONTINUED
