Thanks! Yup, forgot to mention this in my review but to be fair, I would be surprised if there were many people who would want to buy the rim as a standalone
5:14 Did I hear a Mario Kart Sound there? Very nice and honest Review! I liked your Channel for its premium visuals, now I do for the Content, also! Very well done, mate! 👍
The existence of the Logitech G Pro is being ignored and neglected here. It is also a console compatible direct drive wheel… not to mention its True Force is already fully functional, so technically it’s currently the best DD wheel for console and still the definitive GT7 experience until Fanatec’s Full Force is ready to compare.
Yeah I can definitely see how it’s frustrating. Keep in mind I receive my units from their marketing team so I assume they have separate allocations from the fulfillment team. I do see where you’re coming from though. Hope you get some updates soon.
Can you do a comparison review between the DD+ and DD1 for PS5 please. I don’t want to make the mistake of selling my DD1 for the DD+ if its not worth doing so. Thank you.
Bonjour j ai le voyant du moteur qui reste en rouge et impossible de l éteindre.il ne passe plus en bleue quand il s'agit de jouer et tout et bien connecter via ps5😢 que dois je faire? Merci
10:40 that's not correct, True Force from Logitech works in this way. Fanatec's Full Force requires game devs to implement an API in the game itself so that delays are as low as possible because data is taken directly from game engine instead of processing audio signal
You're right, thank you for pointing that out. When Fanatec showed this off at the sim expo they were using it with in-game sound inputs but that was only to demonstrate the effect so I got this confused when writing the script.
I don't understand why fanatec doesn't add a function in the driver to use the audio signal if there is no implementation (yet). it would make the feature way more useful within days and the new wheelbases way more interesting.
Honestly wish I could buy the wheel rim itself. Not really wanting to buy a whole new base seeing as I already have the GT DD Pro. I hated the rubber rim, and wished it was leather instead.
Interesting, perhaps they will do this in the future? Regardless, Fanatec does offer a ton of leather circular wheel rims that are cheaper so that’s definitely an option as well.
@@OCRacing That's fair. I just really do prefer the controls that the GT wheel rims have. Sucks that in order to get this one, I'd have to save up some money over a couple months just to get another base. Might end up giving a friend of mine the old one, but I'll have to wait & see.
@@Mapes. you could just wait a bit and I'm sure there will be people selling these rims second hand, fanatec forum, ebay or facebook marketplace is probably your best bet. If you do decide to get the new DD+, it's still an improvement in every way
the QR2 lite, does not let's the DD go higher than 8Nm, why are they sending a wheel with a base that can reach double the force of the QR? also could you compare fanatec CS DD vs simagic alpha mini?? I have seen that for drift the simagic it's faster, and also have settings to adjust the wheel speed without changing the force, where in fanatec the speed is changed with the force and then to get great speed you need to have a very heavy wheel, what does not feel realistic or practic in drift training.
I bought this item without doing Homework. The display on the wheel is just lit up with no MPH displayed. This is connected to the console of PS5. I know I don't have the options like being connect to the pc but no MPH and when I click the small button it goes into set up and i can't get back out of the set up screen. Is there something wrong with my wheel? or something else?
Great concise video review on Fanatec's newest bundle for PlayStation! Quick question...Does your review DD Plus base have the "coil whine" that's been reported by DD users who have reviewed it on other channels? Is your base silent by it just being on and not in use?
Hi thanks for the review. Question, how does it feel compare to the F1 podium wheel? Wondering if it’s better to shift to that one or just change the qr on my podium set-up. ps I am playing on playstation only 😏
It wouldnt be a Fanatec review without mentioning the fact orders from November 2023 are still not arriving at warehouses. Thankfully it doesnt affect me because Im part of the Simagic Wizard Money Gang
Nice review but can anyone answer a few question i cant find....Can i use the cheap CSL Pedals with this, also if i buy the bmw steering wheel do i have to also buy an accessory for it like a QR2 LITE WHEEL SIDE and can i use this wheelbase to play the same racing games that can be played on the DD PRO
Hey, happy to help. Yes, you can use the CSL pedals with this (that’s what I was using in this video) If you buy the BMW wheel, you will have to buy the QR2 Lite wheel side separately to make it compatible with this wheelbase as it comes with QR2 base-side.

Hi I don’t know if you will respond but I wanted to ask if should get this bundle or get the dd+ separately with csl steering wheel p1 v2 with a qr2 pro wheelside which is a little cheaper, price isn’t the issue but I’d like to know which wheel would be better since the extreme wheel is made with what it seems cheaper quality but could also be a more versatile since I will play racing games of all categories such as f1 and rally unless I just pay extra money and get a seperate wheel also sorry for the long paragraph, thanks
i would wonder how it compares to the F1 DD (DD1 for PS). is it worth it to swap those or not really.....i have only 1 rim, so no huge investments to switch to QR2
@@OCRacing Also this thing is the same price as the Logitech G Pro wheel + Pedals combined. So for the same price you can get a better quality wheel + load cell pedals.
@@lil_lemonade_03 For GT7 players the Logi wheel is the better choice. You're getting a wheel + load cell pedals for less than the cost of the GT DD Extreme. So for those who don't have pedals then they would have to spend an extra €300 on top of this wheelbase on CSL Elite V2s to get pedals equivalent to the Logi Pro pedals.
I don't mean any offence but how many of these did Fanatec give away all the while people that paid for their products are still waiting since November. They need to get their priorities straight
Finding your videos very useful and interesting. Trying to figure out the best BANG🎉 for my bucks. I have no interest is building a Wooden Anything. Looking forward for your new videos and hopefully and updated Best BANG For Your Buck video since dowloads, companies, updates, products and all things have changed.
@@snoopy_peanuts_77 You can also get the Logitech Pro pedals in addition to the Pro wheel and it would still be cheaper. For less money logitech will give you a better quality wheel + load cell pedals.
when referring to the most powerfull wheelbase they specificly mention the GRAN TURISMO licensed wheel. Whereas the DD1 podium is not Gran Turismo licensed ;)
i would say they just made DD pro pricing rather reasonable. with all the shit fanatec is getting, after CSL DD others started to bring the prices WAY down....
Best review i've seen so far, thank you for mentioning that cheap plastiky wheel rim and buttons which many "reviewers" tend to overlook, IMO the best wheel for GT7 is still the Logitech G Pro and will be interesting to see how much fanatec can close the gap using fullforce
Yall need to talk more about the back paddles for us disabled people damnit. Also yall seem to not know the difference of carbon fiber and pure plastic lol sure alot of plastic but much so cf reinforced.
I wonder if the clubsport table clamp would even be able to hold this beast. I have a gt dd pro with 8nm and qr2 upgrade and it feels like I can throw my desk out of my window 😂
Made specifically for Gran Turismo .... huh.... but the wheel is not an option in the game settings... So many things still not adding up, just repeating marketing at this point.
How do they go from the beautiful f1 podium wheel to this POS. Understand its a circular wheel instead of f1 style but jeez this thing looks like it was designed by a kids toy company

Podium Racing Wheel F1 am i a joke to you?
Nice review. Also fanatec podium is officially license for f1 not gran turismo. That was the reason why fanatec claim it like that
Your reviews are SO clear of everyone else's. How you're not the biggest sim racing reviewer is something I will never understand...
You’re too kind 😭
Easy, being big is not a function of ability. It's luck. It's like that in every aspect of life.
The editing in these videos is insane! Keep up the amazing work!
Thanks! Will do :)
Great review as always my friend!!! For anyone who wants to know, the wheel will not be sold as a stand alone. Fanatec did confirm this
Thanks! Yup, forgot to mention this in my review but to be fair, I would be surprised if there were many people who would want to buy the rim as a standalone
@@OCRacing I do feel sorry for the people who pre ordered the DD+ last year and now can’t get the new rim
Of course. Fanatec only cares about money. They’ll take you money quick but who know when’s you’ll get your product. Shit company
For a price that high (1300 euros - dollars) it should include pedals too
$1500 and they give you a plastic quick release? Ffs I understand the McLaren wheel gets a LITE Qr but that wheel is $200. This is insane
Yeah, I was definitely surprised to see the QR2 lite here unfortunately
I can always count on you to make reviews on things I can’t afford 😅

For the price, I think you can get something of higher quality considering this new QR2 phase is already very upseting for some customers.
What would you go for instead? 👀
@@OCRacing Simagic and Moza looking spicy hot. 🥵 🔥

Did they get the license approved from Sony then? I heard that they couldn’t ship the base because of it
Probably
Does the QR lite not limit the torque to 8nm?
I though the same..very confusing
Sorry for the late reply - if you read about it apparently it has been tested and is fine.@@giogamer4825
How come on Fanatecs website it says the Clubsport DD isn't compatible with the PS5??
