    I recently bought the R5 base bundle with ES wheel and pedals. This is my first DD base. I used Logitech G920+gear shift for many years now. I won't go back to those after I got the feeling of the R5 base. I ordered the TSW wheel as well with the adjustable table clamp. I will mostly do Truck simulation and just a little racing (GT and rally). Moza R5 is amazing. Maybe I will upgrade to R9 when the price feels right.

  • @fehbari
    @fehbari Год назад +1

    Hi Laurence. Thank you so much for your reviews, they were super helpful in my purchase decision! You're putting out really quality content. I went back and forth between Moza R9, Fanatec CSL DD and Simagic Alpha Mini. Finally purchased an R9 base with FSR and CS wheels (for formula/GT and rally/drift, respectively), mostly due to better pricing and availability in my country compared to the other options.
    One thing I'm not sure it's normal, and I can't tell from watching videos, is that it takes a bit of extra force to connect the FSR wheel to the wheelbase compared to the CS. The CS "snaps" to the quick release almost effortlessly, while the FSR I need to push it in with a bit more force. I never used a proper QR before so maybe that's normal. The CS is heavier so maybe it just benefits from stronger inertia when pushing it in. Is that your experience as well?

    • @LaurenceDusoswa
      @LaurenceDusoswa  Год назад

      Hey Fernanda! This is not my experience really. I just offer the wheel up and it snaps into place. It could be that you need to spray some PTFE lubricant into the ring and ball bearings in the wheel side of the quick release. That should sort your issue ;)

As a R5 owner I am contemplating the idea of buing a GS V2 wheel but I am bit worried that the R5 will struggle to handle a 300mm wheel.

    r9+gs is unbeatable combo. i can't even think of a reason to buy logitech or TM bases even if they are newer. Same for fanatec, the f1 wheel is still small and expensive. the only thing i don't know and i have to take your word (or other ytbers word) for it is the ffb. not the power value, its almost insignificant, but the detail and the way the software translates road effects on your hands. i think some games might work better with one base and others better with another one. since all these information is really hard to obtain, moza r9 + gs is the way to go.

It looks quiet similar and it weighs not as much as the CS wheel. You say the combo R9 base + CS wheel isn't ideal due to the weight of the wheel.

    In your R9 review you note the CS is a bit too heavy for the R9, but have sung the praises of the RS V2.
    Is the RS V2’s 300g diet enough to make it a good combo with the R9, or is it still going to be just a little too heavy for the motor?
    ~$900 is too much to spend to end up turning around and upgrading because the experience is compromised, so I’d like to get it right the first time.

      @@LaurenceDusoswa Yes, I'm glad you asked. I emailed Moza about this, and they told me that all my items ARE in stock, and that they would be shipping them out to me in 5 days from today. Hopefully they follow through with this, and this doesn't throw any smoke in their direction. It very confusing to the customer when they see that a few items say "In Stock", or "Out of stock", but the majority of their products do not say anything about stock. I guess I just got the wrong impression. Anyway, I am really, really excited to get my hands on my first DD wheel!!

    Just a heads up for anyone looking to buy Moza, my r9 wheel base that is less than 3 months old failed and also the quick adapter broke, I was in touch with Customer service but they stopped replying to me all together. Look elsewhere or buy from a US retailer. Do not buy directly from them, they’re based in china so there’s nothing else I can do but take an L.

    Disclaimer: do NOT buy the GS V2 for an R5 base. If you’re wondering why you’d even do so given it’s an r5, it’s simply because the other offerings are a bit too heavy for the torque on the r5.
    I have been troubleshooting my GS V2 on my r5 base since 2pm, it’s now 10:52 pm. The issue? No matter what settings I use, the oscillation is extreme. Ive done everything I know to try and solve it, wheel friction, reduce road effects, 100% wheel dampener, natural inertia, all the stuff that can impact oscillation I tried. Each time, it’s as if I haven’t changed a single setting. The only thing that works is reducing my FFB to near nothing, basically way too subtle to notice anything regarding the car itself.
    Looking into solutions, waiting on MOZA support.

      @@LaurenceDusoswa I’ve got 90hrs on ACC, 80 on AC and been playing F1 2022. Quite honestly, F1 2022 doesn’t have this issue. Not sure why, I’m very familiar with settings to help oscillation such as dampening, and even wheel friction can help. I’ve boosted all sorts of dampening settings and still have the extreme oscillations… however if you have a suggestion I could try or a setting you think I should key in on please let me know. Love the GS but man I can’t help but feel the experience being somewhat ruined. MOZA has still not gotten back to me yet, worth mentioning I’ve gotten into sim racing about a month ago, tried the g920, T300, and now ofc the R5.
