      I don't know if you say this because of a personal experience, especially when it comes to the support part of your comment, but I contacted them about a month ago because my steering wheel buttons, paddles and encoders would sometimes (not often, but unpredictably)) stop working. They answered within 24 hours with the usual firmware update suggestions, and then - when they didn't work - sent me UPS labels for me to dispatch my DD2 (with 3 years of heavy use) to Germany. I sent it on a Tuesday from Portugal and received it back on Friday of the following week. Maybe I was lucky, but bad experiences tend to get just a bit overblown - and considered to be universal truths - on the internet.

    The dd+ is the best wheelbase ive ever used. Period, constant forces and never dipping onlt when lack of grip or grip loss. This thing has incredible power for the dd+ it has so much detail and so much forces it tells you at all times whats going on. It feels polished and covers every single area you want from a dd wheel.
    Feels just like simucube and asetek had a baby.
    It was so good it stole the show.
    I love when people beg for more detail and want sharper and then when they get they try finding reasons to bash a product that does what they asked for just because its a brand they dont use lol. Im sry if someone says something bad about the dd/dd+ then they are just lieing to themslelves and being bias af.

      Fanatec lost the high end market anyway. They now focus on entry level and consoles, and that's ok. 20 or more nm for console are useless anyway because there aren't even the games available to use them properly

      @johnathanmoyer2375 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      @@drchtct I don't think Fanatec lost the high end market at all. Especially with the QR2 and latest firmware, the DD1 and DD2 are still only just behind Simucube in fidelity and strength, and, as a complete package with an attached steering wheel, are nicer values than their comparable Simucube competitors.

    • @drchtct
      @drchtct 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@johnathanmoyer2375 Pretty much all reviewers (and tons of community posts) agree that the DD1 and DD2 are not on the level of the Simucube, Asetek,VRS and Simagic bases. Even Fanatec themselves say that they are outdated and their Clubsport DD is the real competitor to the other brands for now. For whoever bought them that's not an issue, they are still good bases in general, but for everyone buying into a new ecosystem, the DD1 and DD2 are no options anymore at the price point. And then Fanatec simply has no competitive product against Simucube, Asetek, VRS and Simagic at high torque levels (20nm and higher). Same as they have no high-end pedals in their line-up. By the way, if we talk QR2 (the only high-end QR they have), they also get expensive compared to the competition.
      I'm not hating on Fanatec, I am happy they are finally getting back on track with the QR2 and the Clubsport DD. But they still have catch-up to do in the high-end market, there's no denying that.

      The only thing ground braking that can come along is if developers add telemetry driven ffb like with the acuforce wheel that lets you change sustained load based on under steer , rotation and other aspects of the car.
      All the DD,s since OSW are within spec to line up with SIM and drive perfectly fine.
      The issue is the SIM software really and games like GT7,ACC having no dynamic range to the ffb.

    I love truforce on the Logitech Pro. That being said it still hasn't replaced my DD1 podium on my console rig because of the logi pedals and not having extra rims.
    So now I'm going to have to buy the new base (and some qr2 wheel side) and finally get rid of the DD1 and the logi Pro I have sitting around, on the plus side both of those wheels will more than cover the price of the new fanatec. And if it's really good I might have to go back to having one rig and retire the Asetek base on my PC rig at an early age.

Luckily it's only on pre-order so I can dab the brakes on a rash purchase. I wonder why there is a difference in NM between Xbox compatible and Playstation compatible?

    • @GamerMuscleVideos

      I believe they have to pay additional licence fees for ps5 chip , so they they make that the more powerful DD and probably also sell it with wheel combo / box combo.
      Where as X box support is from wheel rim and 12Nm is stand alone base that does not require licence fee costs.

UPS will not tell you either... so the package is at UPS.. and time goes on and on... and finally, hey.. no one picked up this package, so we return it to the sender.

    Its funny because people get stuck on the 20 or 25nm nunbers but dont realize just as you said it has that stiffer more eeight feel to ut. Even if only 25nm its like its aleays got center force unlike the dd1 which is why it actually feels stronger then the dd1. Also alot more detail. Irs pretty nuts tbh. The control you have over cars is awesome and makes it feel way way less underteery. See usuaply understeer you feel it get loose like the dd1 would feel that way the dd+ always somehow feels grounded like I have crazy grip compsred to other bases.

    Slew rate is a big deal and matters more than just the torque. I think this is why the Simucube 2 Pro is so much better than Podium DD2 despite similar torque.

      think how long 1 millisecond is. There is no way you will feel the difference between a wheel that takes 1ms to reach the expected torque for a corner compared to one that takes 3ms. Slew rate on all DD wheels are fast enough and the differences don't matter, especially when you consider that most people add dampening to reduce the harshness of FFB because the base slew rate is actually too high for a good experience.

    • @MadMike991
      @MadMike991 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @@Monke636 According to ChatGPT:
      For a sim racing steering system, a 2 Nm/ms difference in motor slew rate can be significant. This is because sim racing requires precise and rapid control of the steering input to accurately simulate real-world driving experiences. A higher slew rate means the steering system can change its speed more quickly, allowing for more responsive and realistic feedback to the user.
      In this context, a 2 Nm/ms increase in slew rate could result in noticeably smoother and more accurate steering response, which can enhance the overall realism and enjoyment of the simulation for the user. Therefore, for a sim racing steering system, the difference between 6 Nm/ms and 8 Nm/ms in motor slew rate is likely to be meaningful and worth considering.

    1:02 this is NOT true. The motor in the Podium DD is different tech, but not worse. It's an Outrunner motor vs the Inrunner motor used on the CS DD. Both have their advantages and disadvantages but none is "better". Also the Slewrate of the Podium DD is still (much) higher / faster when it's used with 100% FFB strength.

    • @GamerMuscleVideos
      @GamerMuscleVideos  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      From the perspective of simracing it is true , the csldd and ddpro also arguably have a better motor than the podium specific for simracing as well (outside of strength)
      Due to aspects of the air gap flux density and the cogging and then power delivery and electronics + firmware design and setup.
      All of it is though effectively moot as the limitations are with the SIM software and the differences between the DD wheels are negligible compared to the difference you get from a games tire model + FFB implimentation.
      But yes in totality the club sport DD motor produces a smother and more responsive ffb with less filter needed giving more detail than the podium.
      The main thing needed to drive from though are ranges in sustained load and enough slew rate combined with rotational speed to stay 1-1 with the simulated car which as I say all DD wheels do quite well even the very first DD's
      Slew rate at lower power is also probably appealing to lots of people as you get more responses without having to be the hulk 😂.
      Out runner or in runner doesn't necessarily matter depends how it's all configured physically and the specific electronics , firmware settings drivers game integration.
      I have every fanatec wheel at home from the CSLE onwards and have used them all for 200+ hours , I did use a cswb 2.0 for a bit and also the original Porsche wheel they did in 2000s.
      i also own an Acuforce , OSW and have used just about every DD on the market.

But if you have 4096 levels of force then you have force in steps of 0,005Nm. I went from Logitech FF GT to CSL DD, and I must say I prefer the FF GT in Dirt Rally :D The forcefeedback is too smooth in Dirt rally, so it feels very unatural, while the FF GT gives you rattles like you would feel in the car going on gravel.

      You can buy the 12 Nm if you have an XBox (you just need a compatible wheel - and they have quite a few, at their normal prices). For PS compatibility though, they must pay Sony hefty licensing fees (I guess much higher than Microsoft's). And then they have to differentiate the new Clubsport from the CSL DD Pro (more expensive than the PC-only versions as well). So I can understand why they went with the Clubsport DD+ for PS compatibility. That being said, I think the reasonable price should have been 900 euros.
