    Thanks. I ordered the C5 the day after your review kicked me into action and after 8 years with my trusty old G27. Dispatched the day after from Spain and delivered in France two working days later. 39 dollars for post and no surprises with any additional charges or taxes.
    Mounted easily on my Playseat Challenge. Kept my old pedals which work just with the G27 USB cable plugged in and not powered up. Ordered an Arduino Leonardo to be able to connect them without keeping the the G27 wheel on the floor.
    Initial impressions are extremely positive. Hope it gives many years of service. It has a 2 year guarantee in the EU which gives some peace of mind.

    I bought the Cammus C5 early on this year to replace my owned from new in 2008 Logitech driving force GT. I was absolutely blown away by it. The smoothness, the power and the sheer amount of buttons was overwhelming to me. I have used both the fanatec and the Moza 5NM wheels and this feels more powerful, more like the fanatec with the boost kit. I believe it is rated 5NM constant with 6-7NM peak. It certainly feels like that. I didn't get the pedals as they did look a bit "pony", I kept my T3PA Pro's and I kept my crappy Logitech shifter. Quality wise, The thing is solidly built It still looks brand new after over 6 months of daily use, BUT, I have had to replace both paddle shifters as they both snapped at the 90 degree bend They have redesigned the shifter to give it more support at that bend and I haven't had a problem since. Etsy has some paddle slippers so you can make them bigger, but coming from the DFGT the things feel big to me. Another issue is my right hand rotary encoder needs tightening every month or so. There are tiny little screws in the knob that secure it, that loosens, just on the one encoder A bit annoying, but nothing game breaking. The feeling from the wheel is awesome, its so smooth with loads of detail in the FFB. You really can feel everything. Most of the buttons fall easily under a thumb or finger, yes, the wheel should have definitely been round, but overall its a great product and should be a serious contender for everyone as their starter wheel.

      Thanks for your feedback mate, this gives me an idea for a video too!

    It's a really enticing product, I'd like to see some proper long term reviews though

    I just got my C12 preorder and its incredible. These Cammus products might not stand the test of time potentially, but the tech at these pricepoints is great for a budget minded racer.

    This seems like a really good deal for the money. As long as you just want one wheel and thats it then it seems ideal as an entry level dd wheel. Belt driven wheels watch out

    • @KarlGosling
      @KarlGosling  28 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yeah I'd take it over all other entry wheels at this price point.

    Not if you're on console it isn't lol but it is still an interesting take on the system

    • @KarlGosling
      @KarlGosling  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yeah PC owners are blessed with many options console owners are not.

  • @charleschilders2041
    @charleschilders2041 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Take the pad off the clamp head. Punch a hole in the center. Glue the pad back on.

    • @KarlGosling
      @KarlGosling  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yup that would work... I think Loctite the thread so you don't have to keep tightening it would be better though.

    Such a shame it’s not console compatible

    • @KarlGosling
      @KarlGosling  26 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Yeah console licenseing is very expensive and there are many hops to jump through, I think eastern manufactueres would struggle, even Asetek are struggling and they have the budget and experince!

    Hey Karl, im very indecisive on a first dd wheel. Budget is the biggest factor. Is there an option to add a clutch pedal? And what kind of shifter options are there? Im a fan of drifting and was worried the built in motor getting in the way.
    The fanatec csl dd is on a steep sale currently but i dont know how i feel about their bankruptcy situation

  • @bigbangerz5856

    Best beginner DD is an Asetek Invicta with a 75% off affiliate code 😅

    I would like to say not to buy the pedals. I bought them as part of the bundle and within 2 weeks, the bar that holds the magnet on, started slipping. I ended up having to wedge some cardboard in there to keep the magnet from dropping too far back, which was leaving me with an on or off brake. If you can afford it, buy load cell pedals.

      Good feedback mate thanks!

    does the cammus c5 wheel and pedals fit on a wheel stand, like the GT omega ones? Also I heard some people say that the pedals are bad, is that true?
    This is gonna be my first sim racing rig, and I’m just a casual gamer so I don’t need something too fancy (but I want something fancier than the g29 haha)

    • @KarlGosling
      @KarlGosling  28 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Yeah it'll fit mate no worries, if you watch the review I give you my thoughts on the pedals.

    @karl
    I really do think these manufacturers listen to you. I'm saying this because I remember your R9 review that slates the power block. I got the R12 and it's like Moza has seriously over compensated as a result of your video. The block has a logo that glows and the cable is proper chunky!

    @Karl Gosling i have quick questiom what should i get gt omega apex wheel stand or next level wheel stand 2.0 ? thank you

    • @KarlGosling
      @KarlGosling  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The NLR stand is much more sturdy than the Apex, but I'd go GT Omega DDX, it's as solid as the NLR stand but cheaper.

      @@KarlGosling Thanks i go to NLR stand cause dont have a space that stand can be fold thank you
