Easy Load-cell mod for Moza SRP Lite!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 июл 2024
- We finally have a loadcell option for the Moza SRP Lite pedal set! Is a loadcell worth it? In this video I install it, take it for a drive and compare it to my VRS pedals that I use currently.
Go and check out the mod here: alien-mods.com/shop/product/s...
I have no affiliation with Alien mods, but I did receive this mod for free for review.

you finally hit 1k man, great job, keep at it
@stupidpieceofequipment thanks for the support!!
Great video! This will definitely be my first upgrade!
Super interesting! Never heard of load cell mods before but fair play to Alex and his hard work!
@groatesque WHAT! Logitech mods are a whole new eco system for you to explore!
Amazing! I loved how you filmed the install guide! So easy to follow
Great mod Alex, hope you get some orders!
Thank you for the insight! I just placed an order!
@elenaandrei1784 I'm sure it will be a great upgrade for you!
I find that this load cell kit works flawlessly. A real upgrade for your pedal set.
@alanhaynes7410, awesome! Do you use the kit elastomer? Will you consider swapping it out?
@@MichaelSmithRaces I'm using the one with the performance kit but I'm going to try what you did with the part I took off.....
I have nothing to say except: I bought this load cell kit thanks to your video. Can't wait to finally receive the kit and be able to push the limits. Kind of ironic... pushing the limit.
@StevenRegna I hope you love it!
Any updates on your experince?
@@danielsooon8128 It arrived as promised. The whole time I was in touch with them and they cared about the process. This is Customer service at its best. I used it for a month now. The installation was easy. It works like a charm. At first my brake pedal made a squieky noise and I was annoyed about it. Gave it a try anyways and after 4 hours of driving the noise was gone. I tried some bought "load cell pedals" over at my friends house and they are exactly the same but way more expensive. My trail braking is much smoother and the overall feeling while braking is more natural. Like in my real car. Estimates time of usage is round about 4 hours per day. More on the weekends. As a sim racer this was one of the best purchases I've ever made. 100/10 would recommend!
Literally just bought this.
@andysonofbob2599 awesome, I'm sure you will like it!
Great video! I wish it covered a little bit more technical details as well (like what is the minimum and maximum forces that the sensor is rated for), but it also raised some points that I didn't really think before how the mod kit turns SRP-Lites into a a very accessible platform for further mods with 3rd party elastomers and springs.
I had been in touch with Alex on reddit before, and he seems like a very enthusiastic and friendly guy. My mind was pretty much made up about purchasing the mod kit, but your video definitely reaffirmed my decision and pushed me over the edge towards placing the order. Can't wait to receive it soon!
@RolandsSh Thanks for the comment, you will be very happy with it! In terms of forces, thats a fair point and to answer the question: as light as you want will register (some people add a deadzone for resting your foot), and as heavy as you will want to push. Thats the cool thing about a loadcell, its really just down to you to set min max in the software!
I am using the loadcell mod with the brake mod and SRP accessory kit. Works well, but haven't received a stand yet to give an honest review. It is possible to use those pedals on the floor against something, but need to give them a little angle so the pedal's plate doesn't raise - I am using the pedals against a sofa (+ created a slight angle from the cardboards received from Moza), however I can make the sofa slide if using too much force. It works, but definitely takes time to get used with such a volatile setup, better to immobilize those pedals. Anyway, SRP accessory kit can be used for additional stiffness.
@krizz0rr yeah you certainly need to mount the pedals as you make them stiffer! A rig gets to be vital at a certain point, and I'm lucky to have a dedicated space!
Hi K, you definitely need a stand to use loadcells I'm sure I didn't skip this aspect when we spoke - you need to be able to consistently apply force on the sensor so a sliding pedalbase will negate the benefits. Please use a sturdy setup even if you have to make it out of wood. My rig is 4040 aluminium profiles and you can get a similar setup for less than 300euros shipped.
It looks like you have the beefy pedal plate. I have the prime lite with this new pedal plate and i was wondering if you have yours installed normal or upside down?
I have the rs12 seat which is totally flat. Initially i had the pedal deck installed normally but it felt too high in relation to the seat. So i flipped it, but now it feels too low. The main issue is i have the asetek forte pedals which are very upright. Like 90 degrees straight up, so it has all been a bit uncomfortable. Just curious how you mounted your pedal deck on your rig?
Your prime lite review was very informative. Thanks 😊
@diddly3000 yes I have the pedal plate flat. I pushed it down as far as I could, when I measured it was 17.5CM from the floor. I use VRS pedals which are vertical. If you have not yet seen I have a video on the trak racer universal seat mount, which will allow you to tilt the RS12 here: ruclips.net/video/lWx465EMh2s/видео.html and in my RS12 seat review I also mention it. See my bucket seat video and you will see that I'm really glad I upgraded to the Sparco seat though, and I would get that with bucket seat brackets personally then you will have the right tilt and a solid seat! Hope that helped, email me if you want to talk more :)
Thank you for the video. Don't worry about being slow, even the fastest guys are slow compared to some other guys.
@timaruoutlaws1905 thanks!
Can you explain how you calibrated it? I see videos of pit house with an extra brake setting(brake force factor, but I don't have it), but with the stiffer bump stop and the stiffer spring, the very little travel is making trail braking difficult, as just the tiniest input results in quite a bit of braking force. I imagine I'll get used to it, but I'm not sure if I'm just doing something wrong lol. Great video, btw.
@ihavealife002 yeah there are two parts, firstly do the actual calibration so you press start calibration, then press the pedal to the max. After that you can hit the pedal as hard as you want, and see where it shows up on the graph and adjust the graph to match what you want. If you did what I did and replaced the damper rubber with the plastic block it will be very short and hard, but in that case you just treat the hard part as the start then press as hard as you want. This is one major difference with a loadcell vs potentiometer as its HOW HARD YOU PRESS rather than how far you move the pedal that you want to program in!
off topic but what track are you driving at 6:16 during the first test. I played it in iracing once and wanna drive it in acc but dont remember the name
Looks like Oulton Park maybe?
@Tincoco_ yep its Oulton Park, @warbi505 is right! One of my Favourites!
Hi, I'm facing an issue with the hall sensor itself on these pedals. Anyway i can resolve it?
@pranjalgupta8798 sorry no idea, contact Moza support!
Great video as always! Btw, is there a way to contact the load cell mod creator? I'm planning on buying it but sadly there's no option to ship to Singapore. Thank you!
I have let @alexlupascu3605 know you are trying to contact him! Email me if you dont hear back, my contact info is in my youtube bio, and I can pass on your details.
Hey, I can't reply with the e mail address, the reply gets deleted
You'll find a contact form on the website !
@@alexlupascu3605 Sent u a message via ur website contact page 😁
can i get one of these ? i just checked the website and its out of stock ! how can i get one ?
@Jonbwoi sorry im not involved with the company, best bet is to contact them via the website
Will this work on xbox? I have Mozas R3 bundle that comes with SR-P Lite pedals.
@gotem_stuck while I dont have an XBox to test, Alex thinks it should work as it works directly with the existing system so it should not know any different.... Probably worth a try :)
@MichaelSmithRaces I can confirm that it does indeed work for the xbox. I just received my order and it works great. I'm happy I watched your video.
Hey bud, where did you get that plastic insert from?
@waynemcmurray8405 Its the base plastic part of the performance mod that you unscrew and remove to add the loadcell.
Thanks for the reply, I mean the plastic part you used to replace the rubber.
@waynemcmurray8405 yeah its the bit at the bottom of the performance kit, which you can then use with the loadcell also.
Does the plastic thingy come with the kit? If not where did you get it from?
Edit. That plastic is from the brake mod?
That's the piece that unbolts from the bottom plate of the performance kit. It's worth a try! you might like a pedal with less travel and don't even know it. Michael's elastomer is way too soft and offers little 'dynamic range'. Mine was the harder version PU but I found Michael's hack surprizingly precise (I do have a rubber piece inside the red spring however)
@@alexlupascu3605
Ahh. Would it be possible to share where you got the rubber that you used so I can get one? I think it might feel a bit weird without.
That said my brake mod is less than two months old, so may feel OK?
@@andysonofbob2599 It's a piece of a rubber flexible tubing I had lying around that has the exterior diameter exactly the same as the interiour diameter of the red spring so it slides right in - I cut that to 30mm and that's it. the interior diameter of the hose is 8mm I think so does not touch the center rod.
@@alexlupascu3605
Ahh.
Did you say you used the rubber slice to soften the hardness of the spring to plastic connection?
If so, I guess anything rubbery will do? I bought a couple of elastomers when I first got my Moza. (A complete waste of money because I didn't know what I was doing.) They're not a perfect fit but just about, I might cut one up and use that as a rubber washer?
@@andysonofbob2599 Not exactly - the spring still sits on the plastic piece that connects it to the elastomer. What I did is insert that rubber inside the spring so the spring never gets fully compressed but feels more "hydraulic" as it's harder and harder as you press since the rubber has nowhere to go
I just purchased the mod, how long did it take for you to receive it? It says it is currently on back order and I am curious.
Hi @SebJ2522 the mod was sent to me for free as a reviewer so that wont be relevent, but I know that the mods are made by hand and Alien-mods are waiting on materials to start on the next batch, hopefully some others can comment on delivery times, but I saw someone order one after my review came out and they got it in a few days! Im sure you will enjoy it a lot, will be worth a little wait! :)
@@MichaelSmithRaces Ahh thank you! By any chance, do you know anyway to contact the seller of the mod? On the website there is no way of contacting them.
@@SebJ2522 Hello! I emailed you!
Hello! I sent you an email!
@@alexlupascu3605 I see! Thanks for the quick response!
I won't advise anyone to buy Moza things ever, they did not even try to RMA my broken R5 brake pedal correctly. It took them from April 30th to July 11th, 2024 to get me a working brake pedal again, and you know that the issue is a persistent issue/reoccurring error (in all their brake pedal models) they should have already fixed for all users. And if you are one of the lucky ones who had a good RMA service, think about those who have been left with next to no service from Moza (China)or their intermediaries (Rseat France/Germany (in my case the intermediary of Hardware Experts, the Netherlands)))and their retailers (in my case: Hardware experts, Lelystad, the Netherlands( Bram Nijs & Jorgo Rinu)). Never buy their products if you want to play it safe.
This video proves this brake pedal circuitry is no rocket science by any means
@petermaardananders6803 thanks for sharing your experience. I had great support from Moza via gtomega here in the UK when I first got my bundle, but as you say its totally different depending on distributor / going via china etc! Its tough because they are obviously making these things cheap to reach a wider market, which is good, but the downside is its not as robust. I've got very robust kit now that I hope will last me a lifetime!
