I recently moved from triples, to VR and now I’m about to order one these thanks to both this review by Shaun and Barry’s review at the SRG. The two men I respect the most when it comes to Sim Gear.😻
Got the NLR V3 installed into the P1 and ran some laps around Nords. Oh Em Gee! Combined with my eight bass shakers around the rig, the experience is quite epic 😻
This is an excellent review! You have highlighted the pros and cons thoughtfully and, most importantly, put the expectations of a motion platform in perspective. Thank you, Shaun.
I did a review of the same motion platform with some mods on our page. IMO, it sits a little too high. I used the playseat adapter. Made a custom panel to mount 2 butt kickers (R/L) under the rig. It's an awesome piece. Quality made. Combined with an Oculus is an unbelievable experience. Great review.
For some unknown reason I had expected it to operate quietly. I appreciate that your review utilized a headset instead of speakers and a microphone so we could hear it operate.
Great review, agree 100% with it . Had one for about 6 months and can't race without it now. Love the braking effects and feel it did help improve my braking. If you ever been thinking about getting one, go for it you won't regret getting one.
Thanks for doing what you do. The Simpit does not do an 'it's awesome, ya gotta get one' type of bs review! Good solid information and insight. Appreciate the bottom line overview.
I have the V2 and it's pretty good. It's compact, fairly quiet and adds quite a bit of immersion with VR. The latest software really helps. Some of the other motion rigs require a lot of space and are quite loud. This allows me to have my rig in the corner and not be too obnoxious with it (my wife thinks we past that stage long ago though.
Good stuff Shaun! After watching your review on the Fanatec V2.5 I went & bought one!! Looks like i'll be picking one of these up here soon as well! I appreciate your feedback & content at your website!! Keep the good stuff rolling! -Best Regards
I’ve got the V3 in my house, and use it pretty much every day. Very good product, increases the immersion, especially when you race in VR. But be patient if you order it, it took NLR 4 months to deliver it.... But again, a very good product
Great review Shaun, I must admit you make me want to buy one. Actually right when you starting using it I got the itch to buy one. If it was around $1500 I would jump on it, I know 3k is a lot cheaper than some other offerings but it's still a little pricey right now for me. Maybe in the future this paired with vr would be awesome!
Never used one in person, but I always feel having your seat move and the wheel does not would just be strange. Having your wheel and pedals connected to the motion rig would be best, but that's more mass for the system to move and I can understand why a system like this would limit what moves.
That used to be my logic too, but thinking more about it G-forces doesn't make your wheel and pedals move around, it only pulls in your body, as the equipment is fixed to the car. A full motion rig will give you more of a tilting experience, not emulating G-forces.
@@tomasbeha1645 true, but when I'm racing my car on track I'm moving as a whole with the car. It's lefts/feet/hands. This is just putting GeForce on your torso. My arms aren't moving around and my chest isn't being pushed forward (I'm also strapped in with a harness). But like I said, it might not be as obvious when I'm sitting in a rig like this, but visually it seems jarring.
I tried the NLR v3 last year and i had your opinion before. But in a fast car your body will move a little as well and the g-forces supports you while braking and pushes you in the seat on acceleration. Seat movers seems IMO better for faking this G-forces in tendency and with seat belts you get pushed into them while braking as well, which is pretty awesome. This D-Box systems are more awesome with the bumps, so hieve or z-axis, but this little tilting in x- and y-axis is likely not as immersive as in a seat mover.
@@Leynad778 where did you try one out? I figure at trade shows or something, but I'd love to find some sort of sim racing expo to get hands on with a lot of products like this. I did a Google search but only seemed to get one In Germany?
I tried it at the Sim Racing Expo at Nürburgring last year, but had no time to try many other concepts. This year i will try out some more and decide if and which one i buy. The NLR is so far on the top of my wishlist. There's also a popular forum with a list of people offering others to do test drives here in Germany. Maybe you have something similar as well.
+RTA MOTORSPORTS I was considering one, then went with prosimu like you, but watching this makes me wonder....don't get me wrong though, I'm happy with my 3DOF motion
First of all...Nice review Shaun! But... 1) Way!!!!, Overpriced! When you can get a full motion sim rig for $600-$1000, they need to price this at $999-$1499 for people who already have their own simulator as an add-on 2) Turn the settings down to 50% or less! 3) Thanks again for your Review, great Detail!!!
Great review, Ive had mine since they released the v3. Only mod ive done is to strap on safetybelt with a flexible, elastic ends, so when braking it pushes on me. For me, its way more informative then a chassimover when dialed in correctly And with VR and tranceducers ,its epic.
Would love to see and hear how you have implemented attaching the safetybelt and elastic ends? Just received my V3 the other day and the next phase of the installation is attaching my 3-point Spacro belt to it the way the I would create enough tension during braking the make in even more immersive without stressing out the motor. Maybe I'll attach spring to the end of the belts or something, but yeah any help and ideas at this point are much appreciated.
I got the idea from a german simracing group..Ill see if I can find page..he used springs. Dont overdo it, measure if u can... mine delivers around 10kg more stress on the motor.
iCOn psytrance thanks man! Yeah let me know if you can find the group you described. Btw, can the measuring ve made with e.g. a luggage scale or something? What would you recommend? Should the attching of the belts be made e.g. on the floor behind the rig?
U can buy springs with kg ratings, say 2 springs with 5kgs each,or measure with a pull force gauge or even rated springs. I have a elastic band, and it is mounted att the back of the rig, so the floor should work aswell. One thing to account for should be your own weight aswell, im around 85kg and with the belt im still below 100kgs, and got alot of headroom. But if ur closer to 120kgs I would prolly be a bit carefull. I acctually overloaded my NLV3, had a fellow trying it out(140kg big guy) and it just choked(poor guy, felt bad for him). Powered down for 10 mins and it was fine again, but if that happens, ur putting to much strain, and dont push it.
iCOn psytrance thanks for the tips! Yeah I might be looking into finding some elastic bands as well because couldn’t find good enought springs yet. I’m around 80kg so probably no worries there about choking the kit ;D My sim rig area is already such a small place under the stair so probably those kind of bigger fellas aren’t even able to get to my rig in the first place ;)
Sean I agree. I was not as fast Initially in my motion rig. But once you adapt to its newness you are fine. I didn’t get the next level motion rig as I wanted full motion with pedals and wheel too. You should do a review on the motion rig I have. It’s made by dofreality.com. It’s a full motion rig and 1299.99 plus shipping. It’s amazing. Your welcome to use my rig for the review. 👍
since you got 3 positive reviews ill do the negative. if you are tall its terrible. you cant counter the simulated gforce with strengh like in a real car, the seat moves regardless, so the distance between you and the wheel and you and the pedals will always be changing, i find it horrible. if it was a 500$ product, id say its great no doubt, and to bad im to tall for it. but for a 3000$ price tag. you better look into a kit that moves the whole frame.
Good review. I have one of these, on the NLR GTUltimate V2 rig.. a couple of points I'd make; If you live in a flat/apartment, or your platform lives on anything other than the ground floor, a lot of the bumps travel down as well as up. It will annoy your neighbours, guaranteed. But you can put down some rubber mats, or some rolled up carpet underlay to muffle the noise as much as possible. I've had to send it back to the manufacturers for repairs; due to lack of seatbelt instructions.. don't attach the belt to the platform!! It'll wear down the actuators within days! The support I received was top notch though.. A good bunch, so they are. Shaun is right through, It's very distracting when first starting out with it. I felt a bit nauseous the first time I had tried it. I was using VR as well.. Within the software, it has something called VR Headway. This adds motion compensation, so you'r view isn't bumping around when the vehicle bumps, but only bumps around when the platform bumps.. It was a life saver!! Anyway, that's about it. Fin
I like mine. I have it mounted to a SimLab GT1 EVO. Only problem I had mounting it was the angle brackets that come with from SimLab are too small. In Barry’s SRG review he doesn’t mention having to use spacers on both sides so maybe he used angle brackets from another source.
Great review Shaun. One little precision, motion simulation can actually simulate continuous G force using earth gravity (rolling the seat at 45 degrees will simulate a constant centrifugal force on the side where the earth is), but you need a motion rig with a spinning center at the height of your chest to have a good feeling of it and of course a full motion rig, not just seat motion. Keep on the good work ;)
looks great BUT if you add cables base plataform, seat etc etc , waht will be the cost ? looks like a better option to go for a complete system like TOP SPEED ?
Not sure if you've talked me into buying a motion system or hiring a band to play in the background. Price-wise I think they're in the same ballpark...
Great Review as always. Yeah VR works really well with Odyssey and Rift especially now since they up the smoothness scale. Yeap your right. If I didn't turn on my motion I'm like who stole my rig. lol
With that beard and shaved head Shaun slowly resembles a tiny version of Big Lenny, also known as "Tom Platz of abs". I guess we can call Shaun "Tom Platz of racing sims".
My only concern with this or really any other motion rig is how long would it last with my seat and my body weight. The more weight on it is going to work the motors harder. But it is an awesome rig. Maybe someday. Anyways, it was a great review. Good job Shaun.
Thanks for the Review. Quick question, I also do flight sims (DCS) in addition to racing and I know you can mount the flight sticks to the seat , but do you think the movement would be too much to maintain rudder contact with your feet when climbing and banking at extreme angles? Any feedback from anyone who has also flown with the v3 is much appreciated.
I've been thinking between this and the prosimu 3dof. Do you have a comparison? Also I have Gt omega supreme cockpit I'm thinking the extra height may be a problem with that rig.
Well, wouldn't it work to customize this seat mover by extend the hight that the unit itself is mounted upon. And then you can extend the rig forward and mounting the Pedals on a "plante"? What's your thought on that?
i have the nlr v3 since a year and i love it and now i want to purchase the rseat rs1 with the adapters but im not sure if this combination is also great for taller people(1.90m/6,2336 ft)?
Good review. I have some thoughts as far as not so good Bumpy & Jumpy. I guess it is all about finetuning the sliders. But my question to you is - how does it compare to typical 3DOF based on SCN actuators (SX stage III/IV )? Only in terms of feeling and motion cues, not noise comfort or space. I will appreciate your comment on this. Thank you :-)
I've been on the fence with dofreality too... For me the key constraints is space (ie lack of it in my room) and noise .. babies in the house. The winner for me to go with next level is the VR software means I can leave my tracking cameras fixed in the room for all vr games and not have to mount my camera to the rig which you have to do with other non compensated rigs like the dofreality
People have repored it as being very flimsy. A guy with an OSW even had the frame support broken after a short while. Also they use weak, cheap-ass windshield wiper motors. I agree that motion-sim market is way overpriced but here you really get what you pay for - rubbish.
How is this for feeling the slip angle (drift), I've rarely felt* it in a VRX 4 post D-Box setup and don't have much seat time in a seat mover like CXC to know if it has this sensation. Does it pivot enough to replicate what I imagine a stage 5 Simxperience would have. *i understand it to be tricking the mind to believe based on combination of visual, motion and possibly sound.
Vernon Knutson this doesnt simulate yaw axis movement (traction loss), and you'll find that most entry-level motion rigs do not. take a look at the DOF Reality H3/P3, which features the optional yaw axis movement. imo, it's critical for motion rigs.
why nowhere this thing mentioning the input lag? I was looking at their website and no information mentioned about this metric. Wonder why... maybe it's too big and better not putting it out?
I recently moved from triples, to VR and now I’m about to order one these thanks to both this review by Shaun and Barry’s review at the SRG. The two men I respect the most when it comes to Sim Gear.😻

Do you ever flight sim?
It doesn't move you away from the steering and pedals?

Nice review Shaun! The VR implementation works flawlessly, and it's Awesome!! :D
I got the V2 next level racing unit. They are great and easy to use.
Great review Shaun
Nice review. I really liked the analogy to the band. And the shoes.

Oh man by far your best video that I truly enjoyed watching. Wish I can go buy this platform right now.

just got into sim racing, this guy is a god to me
Once you fine tune it for each sim program it feels spot on. Combine it with VR and it’s great immersion for an affordable price to the average joe.
Can you review a DOF reality rig for us?
PLEASE
I built my own G seat. So much fun!
Can you do a review for DOF reality P3? it is about the same price
@spaceweed10 so you've used both then? What are the differences you find?
Id love to see you try the ProSimu T1000 and do a comparison between these two.

You missed the other type of motion sim. A balanced point full frame 2 DOF. the other is a full lift frame. And the 3rd is a seat mover.

Bahahaaaa
Thank you for posting this video 🎥🍺🍿🇺🇸👍. You have a new subscriber. Keep up the great 👍 work..
there is an obutto motion platform coming at the size of the NLRv3. do you know anything about it by now?
Well I just ordered one after hoeing and humming and looking at number of reviews, I just it is as good as you say it is
some people are mounting a sheet of plywood and a Playseat on it so that your wheel and pedals move all together
Here is how I have done it: th-cam.com/video/RzuPlDADexs/w-d-xo.html
Is this OK for Apartment/Condominium ? People downstairs will think I'm using Electric Drill or running on Treadmill ?
Nice ,my concern its to make it work do i have to call an certificate person to do it, or i can do it my self ?
Great Review...I'm convinced!!
They will definitely be getting my $$!!
Great timing... I want to get one next week
I got one a couple of months ago and love it!!!
I always thought how cool it would be to combine my GS-4 seat with a seat mover. This could be a compact alternative ...
You say that you.have to drill down the forces... Could you pass us the values you have in the app? Many thanks. Loved the review
looks great BUT if you add cables base plataform, seat etc etc , waht will be the cost ? looks like a better option to go for a complete system like TOP SPEED ?
Cool shoes. What are they if you don’t mind me asking?
Is it possible to attach the v3 to the Obutto R3volution? With the keyboard tray and shifter mounts still attached to the chassis?
I've wanted this for my NLR rig for so long. I don't see me getting one due to the price. Such a hard time saving for it.
Very good review. I wonder if lap times came down any.
Do the RS1 adapter plates work with the v3 for the rseat N1?
Those Gulf livery shoes are the bees knees! I'm super jealous! Where can I get a pair?
I’d get this but it is not PS4 compatible and I would like to use this for the GT franchise.
With a VR headset on would be awesome!
Bailey It is, believe me. I got mine 8 months ago, no problems at all, works great
believe him he has 5K to burn :)
Not sure if you've talked me into buying a motion system or hiring a band to play in the background. Price-wise I think they're in the same ballpark...
Great review. Thanks!
Shaun, are you still using this motion solution? Have you moved on to another motion rig?
Hey. I'm not using it anymore. I've moved to the Dbox HF4
Is it compatible with any cockpit?
Great review! Were you able to accommodate your seat butt kicker? Was the USB cable a 3.0 connection?
The NLR v3 is delivered with a Buttkicker holder. (Mount it BEFORE you add your seat). Not sure about the USB
Great Review as always. Yeah VR works really well with Odyssey and Rift especially now since they up the smoothness scale. Yeap your right. If I didn't turn on my motion I'm like who stole my rig. lol
would it be possible to create mounts for pedals and wheel bolted to the chair? or that would be too much front heavy for the platform?
Any chance you could add your profiles or are they on your site?
one con to this is you lose the upper accessory mounting options that the stock Rseat brackets give you?
How does this compare to a 3 or 4 point dbox system? Price isn’t too far off from being able to move the entire rig if u have a rigid frame.
With that beard and shaved head Shaun slowly resembles a tiny version of Big Lenny, also known as "Tom Platz of abs".
I guess we can call Shaun "Tom Platz of racing sims".
Lord Lenny owns the internet! Dare you speaketh his name!!
what base is it please 4.55 holes in bottom of chassie
My only concern with this or really any other motion rig is how long would it last with my seat and my body weight. The more weight on it is going to work the motors harder. But it is an awesome rig. Maybe someday. Anyways, it was a great review. Good job Shaun.
Yeah I think I need one lol. Great Review!
What's the actual weight it can support? In specs they only talk about user weight 130kg.. Is that including all the peripherals seat etc?
what is a good motion platform for microsoft flight sim 2020?
Great review.
Hello,,,new to Sim Racing. Can this be paired into a Fanatec RennSport Cockpit? Or is it only for NLR chassis?
Thanks for the Review. Quick question, I also do flight sims (DCS) in addition to racing and I know you can mount the flight sticks to the seat , but do you think the movement would be too much to maintain rudder contact with your feet when climbing and banking at extreme angles?

hey. would this fit the trak racer rig?
I've been thinking between this and the prosimu 3dof. Do you have a comparison? Also I have Gt omega supreme cockpit I'm thinking the extra height may be a problem with that rig.
Can i use this with elite dangerous?
Great video. I’m looking at buying a Track Racer RS6. Do you know if the V3 would fit on it?
Well, wouldn't it work to customize this seat mover by extend the hight that the unit itself is mounted upon. And then you can extend the rig forward and mounting the Pedals on a "plante"? What's your thought on that?
Next to my love for simracing i like to flight-sim occasionally. I wonder how this performs with x-plane or elite dangerous
So something like this software, do you have to launch the sim through it? I have to launch my sims though sim hub for my Butt kicker to work, etc
i have the nlr v3 since a year and i love it and now i want to purchase the rseat rs1 with the adapters but im not sure if this combination is also great for taller people(1.90m/6,2336 ft)?
Good review. I have some thoughts as far as not so good Bumpy & Jumpy. I guess it is all about finetuning the sliders. But my question to you is - how does it compare to typical 3DOF based on SCN actuators (SX stage III/IV )? Only in terms of feeling and motion cues, not noise comfort or space. I will appreciate your comment on this. Thank you :-)
Do you think this will work on the Track Racer RS6?
Can this be used on console?
Not compatible with the F-GT rig, no?
can you also use this for euro truck simulator 2?
I been away a while, but Sean looking good bro you wear that beard well!
the dofreality is full rig mover for half the money... i wish shaun could review it too
Khyber GT I really want to get one of these. I wonder if it'll ever get reviewed
I've been on the fence with dofreality too... For me the key constraints is space (ie lack of it in my room) and noise .. babies in the house.
The winner for me to go with next level is the VR software means I can leave my tracking cameras fixed in the room for all vr games and not have to mount my camera to the rig which you have to do with other non compensated rigs like the dofreality
RamjetX dof reality is silent
just buy both and let us know wihch is better yourself
People have repored it as being very flimsy. A guy with an OSW even had the frame support broken after a short while. Also they use weak, cheap-ass windshield wiper motors. I agree that motion-sim market is way overpriced but here you really get what you pay for - rubbish.
How is this for feeling the slip angle (drift), I've rarely felt* it in a VRX 4 post D-Box setup and don't have much seat time in a seat mover like CXC to know if it has this sensation.
Does it pivot enough to replicate what I imagine a stage 5 Simxperience would have.
*i understand it to be tricking the mind to believe based on combination of visual, motion and possibly sound.
Vernon Knutson this doesnt simulate yaw axis movement (traction loss), and you'll find that most entry-level motion rigs do not. take a look at the DOF Reality H3/P3, which features the optional yaw axis movement. imo, it's critical for motion rigs.
Thank you col. hapablap, don't know how I missed this one. Shaun, you need to test Professional P3 (3 Axis)

Didn't see that coming. How does a hardcore sim racer not have a VR headset?
why nowhere this thing mentioning the input lag? I was looking at their website and no information mentioned about this metric. Wonder why... maybe it's too big and better not putting it out?
