I have had tremendous luck with my 6 dof SFX150 system. Ultra quiet and reliable. This is not the biggest sim racing channel, but it is definitely the coolest and most enjoyable to watch! Thank you brother and have a great week! Sully.
Can you owners help decide if 2" or 3" belts etc is best? Be cool in the review too if some recommendations for belts/pads was included. The Sabelt looks class though.
@@Mr_Latte_UK I had a 3" belt, only because it came from a race mud truck that I bought for parts. I found on the sim, even with full motion and the belt tension system, it was a bit too much. I switched to a 2 inch and it is more comfortable and reactive with the actuator belt system. I also use a 2" on a 3 DOF flight sim with a G- Belt. I may use it on a formula sim build in the future. The most important thing is you need a 5 point harness to keep the lap belt from riding up when using the tensioner. Getting a dual tensioner like the Qubic, Simxperience or PT Actuator will give you differential g force when cornering as well as braking, accelerating and surge where an actuator system works mostly in surge, braking and acceleration only. I recommend the 2 inch for sims. Hope that helps. Be safe, Sully.
I ordered the same Qubic System BT1 belt tensioner a few weeks ago and it's scheduled to arrive in about a week, can't wait! That combined with VR is going to be mindblowing, next in line is the motion actuators! By the way, as always great video that not only show the product, but most importantly show your true enthusiasm and passion for this hobby! Keep it up!
Sim engineer again. So we tried this on the F-15 simulator in 1987. The belt hardware couldn’t keep up with the motion system so we had to remove it. Pilots felt the latency. Modern hardware and only being for a car is probably as immersive as the smile on your face suggests. Another great video……! P.S.- So I wanted you to watch the video last week specifically about motion cues because he explained it better than I’ve been doing in your chat. 😢
Man, your smile alone sells this thing! The whole video there's pure joy written in your face lol 😁💯 3:30 love your analytical approach to everything. You really take your time to think before making a video about any topic. 4:36 yea only the flaws let us immerse and theres nothing wrong with it 😎 Thank you for making this channel.
Thanks for the kind words Yoshi ❤️ I can’t wipe that smile from my face for few days now 😁 it is really something i missed in the sim experience 💪 I also question everything and try to understand how it works as if I have explanations for myself is way easier to follow and appreciate things and possibly optimize for myself 😃 Hugs my friend 🤗
When I started out, I was on a single screen. I struggled to find/feel the immersion. When I got suggested to plug my quest 1 headset into my pc and try it, THAT is what really launched my passion for sim racing. So, I can relate to the feeling of when you find that hardware that truly changes the game for you. I'm on triples now. It took me a few steps back with driving not having full immersion. But after I got used to them, it's nice to be able to race/drive longer without feeling so drained after. It's nice to see that there is still much more to explore to that add joy and immersion to sim racing. Thanks for the video!
How crazy it must feel when you can actually feel the clutch kick, or the curb shaking your whole body. I can only dream of having a setup like this. 🥰
Man, many times i felt bored from sim racing and every single time i decided to watch one of your videos again and I feel inspired and back into the game immediately. Thank you Bro, you’re such an inspiration. Cheers
Watching you have fun is just awesome! I enjoy watching your videos. Very fun and informative. I think my. Oh jump will be when I can get that DD wheel. I’ve been running my G29 for a couple of years. Putting two kids thru college so funds are low. Keep up the e great work
I could have watched this video with no sound and learned all I need to know about this product from the smiles alone. Looking forward to the full review!
I am kind of new sim racer, only last 3 months into it and got into iRacing almost 2 weeks ago. Recently saw your channel by just looking for some stuff about sim racing and not gonna lie, your videos are so relaxing, nice and interesting at the same time. Funny, but your voice is so calming and relaxed, very pleasant to watch and listen to your videos. And seeing you smile and enjoy the rig and sim racing is amazing. Subscribed of course. Also, this rig is crazy. Maybe someday in future I can even get a little bit closer to something like that.
I gotta say that I really enjoy watching your videos. I can tell how passionate you are about sim racing and how much you enjoy it. Your videos are top notch. And those scenes of you in front of the camera working on things or just examining products look amazing. The lighting is really cool. Great job!
Your expression says it all, you are in sim racing heaven! Must feel real good, feeling all that G-Force, it sure takes sim racing to another level (or two). Enjoy it my friend! 🙂💪
I considered it, but I'm very happy with passive sprung belt system I rigged up. However, I do couple it with a SimX seat mover and GS-5. Its a fantastic experience. Tension on the belts regardless of how it's activated is a major step up in immersion.
Thank you for sharing your happiness and passion! As always great video reminding us why we're so lucky to be alive today. By the way, thank you for previous video too... because of it, Im busy reading Dopamine Nation. 😮😊 Thank you
Great addition to your setup.....I've only heard good things about those Belt Tensioners.....Your setup is now complete, wouldn't you agree !?!? Seeing your constant smile while driving is the best review you could give.....I would absolutely love to have a few hours driving / racing in your setup.....That's something I'll never get to own for myself. Nicely done and looking good.....Enjoy !!
nice! I've had the pt-actuator tensionr for about a year, don't regret getting it (even if i had to replace the power brick). belt tensioners are really impressive. you eventually find yourself bracing for heavy braking zones. more than that though, having both belts on separate motors really communicates lateral g-force in a way that's very hard to explain (seriously you have to try one). Ovals are a completely different experience with it. I also found, as it can communicate lateral forces in a very convincing way (especially in VR), if you've got a motion rig you don't need to use the motion as much for those forces as you can trade it off against the belts, which can reduce the amount you get thrown around.
Absolutely agree with you! Watching the belt movements in the video can’t really give the real picture of the lateral forces in cornering and it feel so convincing ! It is just huge surprise for me even if I expected something like that 😃
I once tested a simrig with "active" seat belts that at the SimRacing Expo and that experience was just sick and brilliant! Awesome addition to your rig brother! 🎉❤🤙🙏
I have the pt actuator tensionR belt system and no motion but paired with shakers. It's a whole different level. I truly feel that like it's alive. I would recommend belts and shakers for anyone who can't stretch to full motion.
again amazing vid ! i have everything on my motion rig except this . i have tried bungee cords but that was disappointing to say the least . the price has always kept me away but whit your review and that smile on your face i have to look into it again and make a decision . i love our ' hobby ' and its because of people like you that we who have the pation for sim racing are able to realize our dream and that is to feel what it is to race cars at our full potential whitout the danger that comes whit it . thanks for that .
Hey man, I had high expectations but this still blows my mind! Braking is the most insane part of driving and finally come to live in that rig which was like impossible dream for me 😃 Absolutely next level shit 😄 We are so lucky to be able to enjoy this hobby Ben 💪 Hugs bro
Funny. My QS-BT1 is scheduled to arrive today. My birthday is tomorrow and I decided to treat myself. Edit: the FedEx truck pulled into my driveway as I posted this 😂
@@chepilevski just a happy coincidence. I’m working on the install now. Boy, is this thing heavy. Thanks for the well wishes and keep up the great work.
@@dauntae24 brooooo, two direct drive motors with 200 newtons each 😜 This is a beast 😄 I wish I could see your first smile feeling it 😁 Make sure to seat aligned with the low friction covers and feel the brake and cornering g-forces 💪💪💪😜
@@chepilevski Wow!! Just finished my first quick session after the install. I love it. When I hit the brakes at speed I expected the tensioner to top out when I wasn’t at my peak pedal pressure but it kept on going. I can’t wait to dive into the software a bit.
i have only an H2 from Dofreality but also with their PTActuator TensionR System. I use my Rig also for flying Fighter Jets in DCS and there the Belt Tensioner is more awesome than in Sim Racing. Also my H2 tilts more than your Actuator Rig, but not so fast and precise. Actuator is better for Racing i guess. But the Belt Tensioner adds so much immersion when pulling 7g´s, combined with the 20° Tilt Angle and VR. So brutal... ;) But i also like Racing in my Rig and the Eu Rouge is also very aggressive at the compression. After going through it i often have to breath heavily :) What awesome stuff we can buy these days. BTW nice Content you make.
I envy Your dedication to this whole experience and the pursuit of perfection in your rigs setup! I've done a lot to my rig with what I can afford and what I can obtain so I understand your level of excitement here. Keep up the great work bud...you're inspiring!
I would like to point out that the 2 inserts (if plastic or rubber) in the seat WILL wear through eventually due to the friction and begin to expose seat structure. Also, if a persons shoulders are higher than the lowest point of those ports, the belts will effectively be pulling down on the shoulders rather than back and will likely lead to back discomfort. Been there done that. I got a good setup now, but these configuration situations make a big difference in the enjoyment factor of this type of add-on.
There are two low friction covers for the seat holes slots which looks like do great job and most likely the belts can wear with the time! And about the importance of the position you are very right, it makes huge difference between being in correct spot or lower!
Really cant beat the sustained Gforces combined with a 3dof or more :) I have a 5 motor DIY G seat and a seat belt tensioneer. Its truly epic! I just did a Nords lap in the GT40 and its scary!
It looks like you need new seat bro 😁 You will love it and I’m sure you will end up getting it for your awesome rig and pair it with the QS-210 Much love bro 🤗
You want your mind blown again. Get Qubic’s CH2 skid platform to put under your rig. It’s phenomenal. Makes such a difference over just the four post 3dof.
I built the simhub diy version and it's incredible.....I thought it was going to be one of those gimmicky things but it real is something else even on a seat mover
My 6DOF MOTIONXP system is still in build mode but i hope to get it operational soon, however my 3DOF is actually more then enough for simracing.. it is indeed another world surly in combination with VR.
My hope is that E-Sports racing will have 3 different categories in the future. Min-sim (controller and wheel without race seat), sim (wheel and normal chair), and FULL-sim. Where players can choose between VR or panoramic screens with motion simulated chairs.
I have no doubt that it feels very immersive, but when I checked the price I assumed this was a motion system, then I saw it was a belt tensioner. wow. thats a lot of money.
Thanks for this video. All your videos are great to watch, your enthusiasm and passion for Sim Racing is genuine and awesome to watch. And after this video I could not stop myself from ordering this. So I will be looking forward to getting mine. The experience will probably be less than in your setup as I don't have a motion system, hopefully I will be able to add that in the near future as well, but by this video I do have the idea that this will already increase the immersion on my rig combined with the wind simulator and the two buttkickers I have. Now I need to find a good set of seatbelts to use with this and my Sparco Evo L seat. Do you have any recommendations for that?
Just watch you smile, is worth watching the Video xD are you in also in Dortmund this year? If yes then it would be cool if you come by and test our new Simulators, on off them is surely something you never have seen before;)
You know I never missed Expo and will do my best to be there this year as well! Can wait to see what have you done 😃 I know you are from the very small group who actually set there rigs properly on those events and not running them in exhaustion mod 😁 See you there 🤛
@@chepilevskiI ordered the belt tensioner and belts. It will arrive at the end of september 🔥🔥 can’t wait! Next ”need” might be a H-shifter for AC Evo and the street cars. Hoping for some tests 😉
Hey man really love the videos and appreciate you making them for the sim community and just wondering what direct drive wheel do you use and find the absolute best thank you 🙌
Thanks for the kind words buddy 🤗 I use the last two years the Simagic Ultimate and before for tree years Simucube Pro Equally happy with both bases and never had single issue with them!
@@xendex_o7420 no particular reason, I had the Simucube 2 pro proved to be a beast for 3 years and then I just start testing how Simagic will do for long period of time and still goes rock solid! Is more about extensive testing.
The motion rig looks awesome bro! How doe all those bumps a Sebring feel? I can imagine it has got to just feel so wild to physically feel everything with the movement setup.
I am always jealous of your cockpit view lol.. i can never get my pitch and horizon shift exactly where i want it in iRacing.... Keep it up man, you inspire us! I gotta thank you because you literally inspired my entire rig (everything from the laidback seating angle, adding memory foam for cushion and lower back support, triple monitors curved 32" with alcantara on the edges, extended steering shaft to bring monitors closer... you inspired it all!!!!! thank you!!!!! just one question :) Are you constantly adjusting your FOV and pitch/horizon or do you set it and forget it.. I have a 60cm view distance with 32" triples and i just cannot seem to figure out the perfect monitor angle and FOV setting (I've tried everything from your recommended 50 degree /176 fov, all the way up to irSidekick's recommendation of 62 degree / 186 fov) PS that qubic motion system looks awesome, i think im going to try building their DIY wind sim using Inline Blowers.
Hey man, never change the horizon but I don’t remember if was two klicks up or something! I mostly tweak a bit the cockpit camera for the different cars but try to be reasonable movement not too much as it breaks the proportions and I can’t feel the cars edges! I’m also at around 55cm eye distance and 50 degrees angle between monitors! I can’t say if is perfect but I feel confident in driving and must be ok! Maybe you should try something you are bit happy with and just stick to it till you get used to it !
Broooooo this is insane. Let me see if I understand, it doesn't only tension under braking but also one side tensions when you get lateral g forces? Did you try it without your motion rig on to see the isolated effect? Great video as always my friend.
Man, cornering and decelerating it really feels like side forces! I will test without motion in the next week but with the brief test it was as impressive without as well 😃
Are you sure it’s not a cheeks tensioner…, one that puts continues smiles on your face! 😂 Good to see you happy like that! 🤗 Would you recommend it even with no motion system in place? Is the tensioner system taking the motion system in consideration? Have a good week mate!
😂😂😂 Thank Toni 🤗 I’ve tested it briefly without the motion and is just as much impressive bro💪 There are like so many effects involved! I will test for bit more expensive time and will try to articulate bit better! Hugs bro 🤗
I just build my rig and set my V2s at 50% instead of 10 i had them before Heavy braking is awesome and i have more control. When you feel braking hard and feel nothing is weird,my mind just craves that braking feel you have in a real car. I wish i could buy this For now im gonna use my imagination
You can make a poor mans version of this by pulling the force off the back of your brake pedal and feeding it under your sim rig via cables to pull on the belts. Not terribly accurate, but there's no lag, no electronics to tune, and minimal cost.
@@Maisaranator That's true, but a spring in between would fix a lot of that if you got the right one. I had plans for it on one of my cockpits that was already elevated, but never got around to it before I sold it. I can "feel" acceleration G force by listening to the engine but it's impossible to get a realistic feeling for how hard you are braking. Definitely 3 screens helped, but only so much.
@@polibard even if the idea is not perfectly applicable, it is still brilliant 👍🏻 . It’s really good to see people using their brain cells in a good way😀.
@@Maisaranator As much as I love cool gadgets, I also like taking advantage of natural forces. Probably a better option although more expensive and complicated would be to use a hydraulic brake pedal, pivot the seat at the front, and use hydraulic pressure to lift it at the back, with belts fixed to the floor rather than the seat frame. That would give you tip forward and belt tightening feedback, which would be even better than just the belts alone. Sometimes it's great being poor, it stimulates your brain. If I ever win lotto I'm going straight to electro hydraulic 6DOF and never working again 😁
Great content, as always. Thank you! How do you think your personal experience with the belt tension would be affected by having no motion system in your rig?
Motion is relatively new for me as use it for less then a year and I was happy before too 😁 If you ask how this belt tension system feels without motion, i tested it briefly and felt just as impressive! I have to make further tests in the next few weeks and articulate my opinion and share with you🤛
How about combining all three - VR + vertical shake + belt pull? ;) PS without dbox it won't be the same. PPS there is more to deliver ;) PPPS will it make you faster? No
I have had tremendous luck with my 6 dof SFX150 system. Ultra quiet and reliable. This is not the biggest sim racing channel, but it is definitely the coolest and most enjoyable to watch! Thank you brother and have a great week! Sully.
Glad to see you enjoying yourself brother in your what sims to be crazy rig😃

Also my H2 tilts more than your Actuator Rig, but not so fast and precise. Actuator is better for Racing i guess. But the Belt Tensioner adds so much immersion when pulling 7g´s, combined with the 20° Tilt Angle and VR. So brutal... ;) But i also like Racing in my Rig and the Eu Rouge is also very aggressive at the compression. After going through it i often have to breath heavily :)
What awesome stuff we can buy these days.
BTW nice Content you make.
I can imagine only how good must be in flight sims 💪
you're amazing , all time great content
Hugs brother 🤗
Thank you for the kind words ❤️
That is such a cool idea, thank you for showing :)
Crazy stuff buddy 💪😁
he seems happy :)
And it is contagious which is why it is such a great channel
I know I expected something great for this but is still so cool in reality and I can stop smiling with it 😄
Much love guys 🍻
I envy Your dedication to this whole experience and the pursuit of perfection in your rigs setup! I've done a lot to my rig with what I can afford and what I can obtain so I understand your level of excitement here. Keep up the great work bud...you're inspiring!
The smile on your face tells it all 😀
Can’t wipe it for days 😁
I would like to point out that the 2 inserts (if plastic or rubber) in the seat WILL wear through eventually due to the friction and begin to expose seat structure. Also, if a persons shoulders are higher than the lowest point of those ports, the belts will effectively be pulling down on the shoulders rather than back and will likely lead to back discomfort. Been there done that. I got a good setup now, but these configuration situations make a big difference in the enjoyment factor of this type of add-on.
There are two low friction covers for the seat holes slots which looks like do great job and most likely the belts can wear with the time!
And about the importance of the position you are very right, it makes huge difference between being in correct spot or lower!
I have the PT actuators belt tensioner now for 2 years and idd its a real game changer 🤩 this kit looks verry same
It has the same functionality buddy 🤛
The smile on ur face says it all
Yeh man, can’t wipe it for days 😁
Really cant beat the sustained Gforces combined with a 3dof or more :) I have a 5 motor DIY G seat and a seat belt tensioneer. Its truly epic! I just did a Nords lap in the GT40 and its scary!
💪💪💪😃
That's a really clever idea!!
Is brilliant indeed 😃
I'll have to check this out.
Dein Dauergrinsen spricht auf jeden Fall Bände Steliyan 😂 Viel Spaß mit dem "Gurtstraffer" ! Liebe Grüße aus Neckarwestheim 👋
Danke brother 🤗
Fun times for sure 😁
I would love to add this to my setup, but unfortunately it doesn't really work with my Sparco R333 seat.. 🙄
But looks like lots of fun! Enjoy it mate🙌
It looks like you need new seat bro 😁
You will love it and I’m sure you will end up getting it for your awesome rig and pair it with the QS-210
Much love bro 🤗
@@chepilevski maybe I will, but I really love my R333😁
We shall see😉
Much love brother! 🙌
@ProjectSimRacing it is just my prediction bro 😁
Time will say 😜
@@chepilevski 😁😄
@@ProjectSimRacing with your crazy driving skills and rig, I can see in the future 😄
I have the pt active and love them
Is such an amazing experience 💪
You want your mind blown again. Get Qubic’s CH2 skid platform to put under your rig. It’s phenomenal. Makes such a difference over just the four post 3dof.
I have heard crazy things about it 💪
Thx for sharing!!
I built the simhub diy version and it's incredible.....I thought it was going to be one of those gimmicky things but it real is something else even on a seat mover
I had good feeling about it but now I can’t wipe my smile for days 😁
becouse of you i got in to simracing thanks alot :)
Hope you will enjoy it for longer then me brother 🤗💪
They have got to be insane on rally sims or trophy truck racing
That will be test 😁
A video full of TENSION 😅👍
Lots of tension 🤣🤣🤣
My 6DOF MOTIONXP system is still in build mode but i hope to get it operational soon, however my 3DOF is actually more then enough for simracing.. it is indeed another world surly in combination with VR.
Happy to see you are pushing hard buddy 😃
My hope is that E-Sports racing will have 3 different categories in the future. Min-sim (controller and wheel without race seat), sim (wheel and normal chair), and FULL-sim. Where players can choose between VR or panoramic screens with motion simulated chairs.
I have no doubt that it feels very immersive, but when I checked the price I assumed this was a motion system, then I saw it was a belt tensioner. wow. thats a lot of money.
Well, real racing won't get cheaper, too. I may opt for it used in some years.
It is not cheap for sure but still cheaper then some DD bases and phase two direct drive motors inside.
But again, this stuff costs a lot 🙈
Thanks for this video. All your videos are great to watch, your enthusiasm and passion for Sim Racing is genuine and awesome to watch.
And after this video I could not stop myself from ordering this. So I will be looking forward to getting mine.
The experience will probably be less than in your setup as I don't have a motion system, hopefully I will be able to add that in the near future as well, but by this video I do have the idea that this will already increase the immersion on my rig combined with the wind simulator and the two buttkickers I have.
Now I need to find a good set of seatbelts to use with this and my Sparco Evo L seat. Do you have any recommendations for that?
wow. added to wishlist :D
Just watch you smile, is worth watching the Video xD are you in also in Dortmund this year? If yes then it would be cool if you come by and test our new Simulators, on off them is surely something you never have seen before;)
You know I never missed Expo and will do my best to be there this year as well!
Can wait to see what have you done 😃
I know you are from the very small group who actually set there rigs properly on those events and not running them in exhaustion mod 😁
See you there 🤛
Seatbelts is what I'm missing in VR. Feels naked without them so this video appeared at the right time. :)
Belts completely changes my posture and relaxing my body movements so, I know exactly what you mean bro 🤛
@@chepilevskiI ordered the belt tensioner and belts. It will arrive at the end of september 🔥🔥 can’t wait!
Next ”need” might be a H-shifter for AC Evo and the street cars. Hoping for some tests 😉
awesome setup
Thx buddy 🤛
I'm happy I subscribed to your channel
I’m happy if I don’t disappoint brother 🤗
Now I know exactly what I want for Christmas.
😁
Hey man really love the videos and appreciate you making them for the sim community and just wondering what direct drive wheel do you use and find the absolute best thank you 🙌
Thanks for the kind words buddy 🤗
I use the last two years the Simagic Ultimate and before for tree years Simucube Pro
Equally happy with both bases and never had single issue with them!
@@chepilevski I currently use simucube pro and absolutely love it was there any reason you have changed to the simagic ultimate? Thx
@@xendex_o7420 no particular reason, I had the Simucube 2 pro proved to be a beast for 3 years and then I just start testing how Simagic will do for long period of time and still goes rock solid!
Is more about extensive testing.
@@chepilevski ah I get you now thx keep up the good work my friend 🙌
The motion rig looks awesome bro! How doe all those bumps a Sebring feel? I can imagine it has got to just feel so wild to physically feel everything with the movement setup.
It really is great man 😁
Sending is such a wild track and there are so many hidden bumps a didn’t know about.
Keyboard playing ONLY. F1 2020. AI = 60.
It's so amaizing. Gradualy moving AI up.
Another great video. Will you add to your review, the experience while 3DOF is deactivated?
That is something I will explore the next week buddy 🤛
thats it, i am starting to save funds for motion system and belt tensioner.
just got VR.
Tons of fun indeed Michael 😁
Interesting topic, for the price setting of VR having VR myself I would give this a try myself in the future. Thx :)
💪😃
g-forces!
I am always jealous of your cockpit view lol.. i can never get my pitch and horizon shift exactly where i want it in iRacing.... Keep it up man, you inspire us! I gotta thank you because you literally inspired my entire rig (everything from the laidback seating angle, adding memory foam for cushion and lower back support, triple monitors curved 32" with alcantara on the edges, extended steering shaft to bring monitors closer... you inspired it all!!!!! thank you!!!!!
just one question :)
Are you constantly adjusting your FOV and pitch/horizon or do you set it and forget it.. I have a 60cm view distance with 32" triples and i just cannot seem to figure out the perfect monitor angle and FOV setting (I've tried everything from your recommended 50 degree /176 fov, all the way up to irSidekick's recommendation of 62 degree / 186 fov)
PS that qubic motion system looks awesome, i think im going to try building their DIY wind sim using Inline Blowers.
Hey man, never change the horizon but I don’t remember if was two klicks up or something!
I mostly tweak a bit the cockpit camera for the different cars but try to be reasonable movement not too much as it breaks the proportions and I can’t feel the cars edges!
I’m also at around 55cm eye distance and 50 degrees angle between monitors!
I can’t say if is perfect but I feel confident in driving and must be ok!
Maybe you should try something you are bit happy with and just stick to it till you get used to it !
Broooooo this is insane. Let me see if I understand, it doesn't only tension under braking but also one side tensions when you get lateral g forces?
Did you try it without your motion rig on to see the isolated effect?
Great video as always my friend.
Man, cornering and decelerating it really feels like side forces!
I will test without motion in the next week but with the brief test it was as impressive without as well 😃
Are you sure it’s not a cheeks tensioner…, one that puts continues smiles on your face! 😂 Good to see you happy like that! 🤗 Would you recommend it even with no motion system in place? Is the tensioner system taking the motion system in consideration? Have a good week mate!
😂😂😂
Thank Toni 🤗
I’ve tested it briefly without the motion and is just as much impressive bro💪
There are like so many effects involved!
I will test for bit more expensive time and will try to articulate bit better!
Hugs bro 🤗
@@chepilevski can’t wait for the extended insight of yours. 💪 bear hug! 🤗
I have tried tensional belt at maranello in Ferrari museum.
Mind blowing 😮
It is my first time and blow my mind 😁
@@chepilevski step by step maybe will arrive time for that.
I just finished moving the cockpit into a new remodeled room and put in the triple monitor
@@laposimoni happy to read that 💪
Enjoy the new space bro 😃
Happy Like a child😄
That’s true 😁
I just build my rig and set my V2s at 50% instead of 10 i had them before
Heavy braking is awesome and i have more control.
When you feel braking hard and feel nothing is weird,my mind just craves that braking feel you have in a real car.
I wish i could buy this
For now im gonna use my imagination
I understand exactly what you mean 🤛
Lol Look at his smile at 8:19 haha the best!
😁😁😁
Initially thought you were holding a gun in the thumbnail - lol 😅
Gravity gun from Half Life 😁
@@chepilevski You name it ✌
You can make a poor mans version of this by pulling the force off the back of your brake pedal and feeding it under your sim rig via cables to pull on the belts. Not terribly accurate, but there's no lag, no electronics to tune, and minimal cost.
That is actually really cool idea and very possible 💪😃
Nice idea but it will affect your pedal force and travel amounts
@@Maisaranator That's true, but a spring in between would fix a lot of that if you got the right one. I had plans for it on one of my cockpits that was already elevated, but never got around to it before I sold it. I can "feel" acceleration G force by listening to the engine but it's impossible to get a realistic feeling for how hard you are braking. Definitely 3 screens helped, but only so much.
@@polibard even if the idea is not perfectly applicable, it is still brilliant 👍🏻 . It’s really good to see people using their brain cells in a good way😀.
@@Maisaranator As much as I love cool gadgets, I also like taking advantage of natural forces. Probably a better option although more expensive and complicated would be to use a hydraulic brake pedal, pivot the seat at the front, and use hydraulic pressure to lift it at the back, with belts fixed to the floor rather than the seat frame. That would give you tip forward and belt tightening feedback, which would be even better than just the belts alone.
Sometimes it's great being poor, it stimulates your brain. If I ever win lotto I'm going straight to electro hydraulic 6DOF and never working again 😁
Great content, as always. Thank you! How do you think your personal experience with the belt tension would be affected by having no motion system in your rig?
Motion is relatively new for me as use it for less then a year and I was happy before too 😁
If you ask how this belt tension system feels without motion, i tested it briefly and felt just as impressive!
I have to make further tests in the next few weeks and articulate my opinion and share with you🤛
@chepilevski thank you. Yes, I meant "your experience with the belt tension system without having motion"
@@Yanmak13 i will do for sure dedicated video about it without motion 🤛
How about combining all three - VR + vertical shake + belt pull? ;)
PS without dbox it won't be the same.
PPS there is more to deliver ;)
PPPS will it make you faster? No
