*UPDATE*
In the video I mentioned a 5% discount at the end. Unfortunately due to my misunderstanding, there is actually no discount, which was assumed on my part, my apologies! I do get a small kickback from referrals. Thanks for understanding!
Hi! I love your videos. I have a Logitech G923 and I’d like to know if this Moza new model would be a justifiable upgrades. I mean, the 923 its an entry level model and the Moza is also too but with direct Drive an 5nM. What do you think? Thanks!
@@martinfodor2848 hi Martin!! Thanks for commenting! Having used a Logitech G920 for many years before upgrading, I can tell you that the Moza R5 will absolutely be a justifiable upgrade. Due to the inherent smoothness of direct drive you will notice A LOT more detail on the sims, the wheel has over double the power and is far quicker to respond to what the simulation is doing, honestly it’d be worthwhile 😁
And it cost 640€ VAT excluded not 599
Nice video. Just got my Monza 5 set over the weekend. Made a 300 plus one way road trip to microcenter in Dallas. I was surprised has small the base is, however does the job very will. I am impressed with how silent this wheel operates, can barely tell that it is on. The wheel is small, however appears to be well made and has plenty of buttons. The wheel feels good. The force feed back is good. Compared to my T-150 & G27 the wheel is just so easy and smooth to use. The software for settings adjustments has lots of different setting adjustment features. With my gaming laptop hooked up to 55 inch tv, the software exceeds the screen size. A little irritating to have to manually move and adjust the screen, just a very slight complaint. The screws to hold the pedals to the base are very small, in fact I may have already lost the very small Allen wrench that was included. The sim wheel bundle was very will packaged. The wheel base and wheel even come with their own bag to enclose them. In conclusion, seems like very well made product that should provide many many hours of use over many years. I did have some hesitation on this wheel selection since only PC. Except for GT7, I do not take the racing serius and just have that for the wide car selection and photo mode. Therefore is just for very casual play while setting on sofa with controller. AMS2 is great. This wheel combo, however for me has brought PC2 to life and is like a new game. If you struggle to determine if the cost of $600 plus is worth it. If you can afford it, I would say just based on a few days of use. I would answer with an astounding yes. I chose this based on price, reviews, availability and that was complete wheel/pedals package.
What a fantastic comment, thanks!!
So I live near Dallas and by chance do you remember if microcenter have any direct drive wheels out to try? I’ve never gone hands on with DD and would love to.
@@Wheelmass there were not any Moza wheels set-up to try when I was there before xmas. They did have a full sim wheel, rig set-up. Except did not look at it, was most likely a higher end wheel. Still enjoying my Moza wheel. Definetly worth the trip and price. The one they had on the shelf, an employee took that box and said it was shipping out for an online purchase. Luckily they still had more in the back at the time. One other thing to mention, is that the clamps that are included are very well made. I only have mine clamped currently and have not had to re-tighten the clamps at all.
Great video and I will be definitely getting this for my son for Christmas as he has a Logitech and this is way more premium and better for racing
good review, its especially a great deal now that they sell the base seperate without the pedals.
Agreed, its a no brainer if postage isnt too bad!
My Mitshubishi got Drive-by-Wire. Was weird at the beginning but now I know how the car steers.
Another good review 👌.
Thanks mate, much appreciated!
Ended up buying this bundle and the clutch and brake performance mod from a different store, along with a shh newt 2 7speed+r/ sequential shifter. Got my r5 bundle today and I don't know how to explain it. Obviously you know what it's like, but coming from a g29 to the r5. It was mind blowing and I had a huge smile on my face the whole time I was using it. 5nm is definitely plenty and I was sort of doubting it would be enough, but oh man my doubtful expectations have been blown away
Oh man i’m so glad you made the jump and enjoyed it! The jump from a G29 to an R5 is a big one even if the gulf in power between them isnt, the smoothness, clarity and level of detail is awesome right!?
@@TheCarDoc1 yeah its really insane. ACC is so smooth and I play on 100% ffb and torque, using boosted media's settings. Normal assetto corsa has a bit of ffb clipping but I got it sorted. But man there are so many new things I was able to feel. I can't even begin to imagine how good a setup with like a 30nm simcube ultimate and hydraulic pedals would be, now that I know what DD feels like. Cant wait for the clutch, brake mod and shifter to come in a few weeks. Hopefully they also come out with a throttle and clutch mod to make them feel even better.
I have a pot brake pedal. You can adjust the brake sensitivity in games to prevent brake lockup. At the moment I feel like load cells are good if you're practicing for real world events.
I think since the base itself is only like 100 more than something like a thrust master tx base while being dd solid construction and more force feedback it’s worth the extra 100
100% worth it compared to the nearest relatable non DD wheel!
Bundle is needed for consoles. But Moza R5 does not work with the consoles (as I remember).
The best kit for PC:
- base: Simagic Alpha Mini or Moza R9
- quick release;
- pedals Logitech with Load cell mode on brake (at least) + USB converter;
- inexpensive steering wheel;
- custom steering wheel petals (with USB converter).
Original steering wheels are too heavy and too expensive.
Could you also do a review on the thrustmaster t248 and that was one I noted but did t know if it was good for its price point
So I bought the R5 and they have upgraded the brake pedal spring. It's nearly twice as heavy as the accelerator pedal. I'm sure it's better with their optional mod, but getting it isn't as pressing (hah!) as it was with the first version of the SRP Lite.
haha, thats good to know, I definitely got the old one I believe, haven't tried the SRP lite spring kit yet but a heavier pedal is certainly helpful! Thanks for commenting, do stick around :)
Like every time, its a lovely review ans you are really good at it. New follower here from Italy. CheerZ. One question for you. Do you think 5.5 nm for a newbie like me is enough or ill end up with regrets because i chose r5 than r9? Thank you
With regards to the 5.5Nm being enough, well I have a Simucube 2 Pro where my most used profile sets the base to deliver just 6.5Nm compared to the 25Nm it can deliver.
This is it, I have my fanatec DD1 turned way down because otherwise you're just going to end up in SNAP city lol
Cool video! Does this thing have force feedback?
Moza rocks!!!!❤
dude the product is great but if you live in turkey it's a dream :(
I thought the pedals were hall effect sensors not potentiometers which eventually wear out.
My bad, not sure how I missed that, but they are indeed hall effect sensors, thanks for that, will leave a pin up top to notify others!
Do you know if you can use the Thrustmaster T-LCM pedals with these? Recently bought the R5 Bundle and can’t wait for the wheel but watching this, I can already tell I’ll need to upgrade those pedals 😂
If you can plug your T-LCMs in via their own USB cable then hells to the yeah (on pc)
A new thrustmaster belt driven wheel still costs almost double what one of these costs.
Budget dd wheels are amazing 👌 I'm quite a fan of the moza range at this point
They're awesome right!? I'm becoming a fan too aha
What do you mean, how much does thrustmaster cost in your country?
Im all aboard as soon as they release a shifter that can pair with the wheel. That would make console gaming possible with an H pattern.
oh man, they just released a handbrake, if they release a good shifter they're gonna sell like hotcakes I'm sure..
Moza wheels are not compatible with any consoles, PC only. They are in talks with Sony.
@@_Corsa they are with a brook Ras1ution
@@TheCarDoc1 MOZA: “ hold my beer!”
not potentiometers, hall effect sensors... you already got your information incorrect
I am very interested in starting simracing and started watching videos about gear bundles and everything, i think the r5 bundle is for me but i am not sure about the pedals that come with it, would i be better off only buying the r5 base/wheel and a different set of pedals? or is that bundle truly great enough on its own? I also heard there is an extra brake attachment you can buy with the pedals that come with the bundle, is it worth taking?
Did you order one?
@@damienfiche2592 kind of funny, i decided to sell my snowmobile and buy an atv to go outside lol :D, so no sim setups for me
I believe it is i got mine for $424 at microcenter i jumped on it and upgrades are cheaper and nicer than fanatec virtually zero plastic all metal and carbon fiber and i love it ive since bought a CS wheel did both pedal upgrades and got the shifter and handbrake the only thing better about fanatec is the boost pack that's it but the quality of build with the csl dd is pretty poor compared to the moza r5 fanatec uses allot of plastic and has a plastic QR that absolutely sucks as nd needing a set screw to keep it secure kinda defeats the purpose of a quick release the base is 50% plastic the wheel is majority plastic and rubber el cheapo materials and the pedal faces are again plastic yeah ut where im Going with this. Oh you said Moza has potentiometers they are not they are haleffect sensor based no potentiometer at all in the srp lites but you can get the standard srp for $140 and it has a loadcell and will probably be my next purchase
Im curious about the wheel rim comparison between the G29
Its a lot softer, feels like real leather to me compared to my G29 :)
What monitor is that?looking for one in my set up
just gunna say one thing, brooo why ur brake pedles so far appart xD. quite unusual but i can understand for f1
Does your srp lite pedal stay connected in pit house? My pedals only show connected when I hit the gas or brake then immediately disconnects after I let go of gas or brake. Is that normal?
fun fact about needing to put pressure on the brake pedal if you've got spine/hip issues. IT HURTS!
this is true! its not a one size fits all but luckily you can tune it down in most loadcell pedals :)
is budget considered 900 CAD now a days
I went from having one of those £99 Ferrari thrustmaster wheel 6 years ago to then a Logitech G920 to a G923 and now I have got a Thrustmaster TSXW and I am not planning on switching any time soon.
@@dcars806 I would just wait and save up to get the Thrustmaster. It only is usable on Xbox and PC and I mostly use it on my PC. The difference between the logitech wheels and the thrustmaster is so big. It is worth every penny. The power difference between them is so big. It makes drifting easier as you can feel much more.
@@dcars806The t818 is better as it is direct drive however it is more expensive then the Fanatec CSL DD. And if I had the choice I would go for the fanatec. However I haven’t tried either wheel so I can’t say for sure. The t818 and CSL DD doesn’t include and wheel rim or pedals unlike the Thrustmaster TS-XW Racer.
@@dcars806 All types of racing, drift, rally and I play all driving games with it.
I can’t get my LED RPM gauge to work on my wheel. Has anyone else had this problem ?
make sure you have moza pit house running can turn it off and on in there and adjust when lights flash.
Where are you getting the SR-P lit Accesory kit for $15? It's $27 on Moza's Site, and pricey shipping.
Oh, and out of stock as well.
I couldve sworn at the time of making the vid it was, but I may be mistaken, my apologies!
I had Logitech G920 and with custom FFB setting available from people on the net my R5 is disappointingly not as good. No matter what advice I follow I can't get the R5 wheel to be as good as I had my G920 and the brake pedal sucks
i hope moza make a Moza R3 with 3nm
thats a groovy idea !
The base will then be the size of a soap bar..
What is the discount code? Link don’t work
My mistake, I have misspoken, there is actually no discount, the affiliate code helps me, but does not in fact include a discount, which was assumed on my part, my apologies!
No, the CAMMUS C5 is! Cheaper ($250) and more torque (5Nm constant / 7 Nm peak). Feels stronger than the Fanatec 8Nm ...
Can this be used on a PS5 or Xbox?
No, not yet sadly, its PC only
I have had mine about a week. I bought the pedal kit but for me that is to stiff, its like a board. So working on something in between with springs from local hardware store
Oh, interesting that you found it too stiff, will report back on my findings!
I did not get any discount???
My mistake, I have misspoken, there is actually no discount, the affiliate code helps me, but does not in fact include a discount, which was assumed on my part, my apologies!
I hope Moza make it PS5 compatible
I think there's an aftermarket adapter you can buy, people in the moza discord talk about it a bit
@@alec7568 The aftermarket adapter will interpret it as Logitec g29 and will only use 2nm.
@@wallstreetomegazoe2963 I don't know how it interoperates the inputs but you would have more than 2nm
when they do, it'll be best selling imo
Is it compatible with consoles?
No, PC only
Iracing is bad about locking up . #DanSuzuki has a great video on how to never lock up again on YT🤘🏼🏁
I don't have this problem with my Fanatec V3, I hadn't had enough practice on the moza pedals, BUT, I am always about learning and will look that video up :D
They can"t possibly be a budget king while they are deciding to charge me 250$ for shipping. And that is before paying also arround 200$ more on customs and VAT tax fees.
Its certainly dependant on where you live unfortunately. hopefully they expand a bit more soon!
Im a bit late but 3rd party sites offer the bundle without the crazy shipping costs, i got mine for 650 euro + 10 euro shipping from a dutch website.
@@shanks2872 Thanks, I'll check that.
Csl dd is way better
I completely disagree :-)
