Every single wheelbase doesn't have all the same hardware lol some use outrunner servos, some use MiGE motors some use compeltely different ones. Many are completely custom. Like asetek wheelbases had a very custom motor made for them by MiGE differclty. But yes simagic is amazing I love my ultimate and yes software matters alot in differences. Just saying we have a bunch of different servo motors. Some traditional some not.
@@reviewforthetube6485 to bring up your Asetek point. Asetek acquired Simucube IP through a $6.8 million agreement, they use a mige, just like a simucube. I’m not entirelyyy sure if they have a “very custom motor” but Asetek encoders are some of the best on the market. I think you’re confused by me referencing every SIMAGIC BASE has relatively the same INTERNAL hardware. Not every single wheelbase on the market using the same hardware, obviously. DM us on IG or send us an email if you have anymore questions.
1:13 they definitely missed with sequential mode on the DS-8X. That throw is far too long. It will also get stuck in position if the tension is even slightly tight. Huge disappointment on that for me.
That is very true! I've been in talks with them and they have said they've found a fix with the DS-8X issues. What happens is a spring within the shifting mechanism is failing due to tension of the sequential mode. So what happens is those springs will snap (I know an esports driver whos gone through 3 of them!) I will say, I did not include that (which is my bad) and hopefully, they have fixed that faulty spring so that stops happening! Hope this helps, DM us on Instagram with any more questions or concerns :)

i spent months debating simagic U (black friday sale) vs simucube 2 pro. first time i didnt buy once cry once, and im gonna be really pissed if i regret it. the only difference i heard was software, then simagic caught up? Cant trust people. But also the true spec number difference is also subjective. I will try the SC 2 pro in the future but no clue how long it'll take to reconfigure correctly within a return window to see if it's worth the $600 jump just bought my Alpha U this morning. also i dont wanna abuse the free consultation but im not sure what else i need to buy/consider. i just forgot i needed the side mount plates i bought a rigmetal rig flagship and now to consider a seat.
@@Sickling3 for sure man! That’s definitely a big decider for a lot of people and with alpha u price being as low as $728, it seems like a no brainer. Feel free to flick us a message on IG if you want any setting recommendations.
My TH-cam algorithm has me in the wrong tax bracket
It’s funny because I’m getting the alpha and am still under the $2k range
Short answer... YES! I got one and love love love it.

i hope they fix it soon.
As a Simagic expert. What would be your recommended settings for the Simagic Alpha U? I mostly play ACC, AC and AMS2.
