    Question, which monitor are you running? Do you recommend it?

      I ise samsung g9 and I love it. My wife was affraid that it was too big but it turned out to be one of the more beautiful things in living room. I have fov around 110degrees and I adore it. 240hz also make things much more smooth. I surely will make a review of it.

    This base has blown my mind and imo is also the best looking base on the market haha. I love the piece on the shaft also idk what it is something about the look. Also the wheels omg simagic wheels are insane.
    Imo people downplay the simagic still and imo it actually feels slightly better now then simucube. It feels so fluid and just good.
    Also the best quick release in the game.
    The reason default feels so good now is because they use real drivers and sim users with inssne experience to set them up as default.
    Also real drivers do use simagic lol
    There is something special about simagic now there software has made this thing feel so much better over the years that it's mind blowing. 😊
    Also just so people know yes many pro drivers use simagic now.

    I have the switch mounted on the post to the left of the wheelbase - very convenient. Maybe more so than on the base (keep saying it and it will come true ;)
    I like the ecosystem too. It's the only DD I've had (alpha mini). I don't even use max torque in games and it beats me up.

  • @taxi615
    @taxi615 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I just pull the plug from the base to turn it off. If they made the switch close to the base or like you mentioned on the rear would solve lots. For the money the Mini Alpha and Alpha U are the best bang for buck and does everything right. Whish the software would be better and they need to add profile sharing like Simucube

    In ACC Is the ultimate at 60% in game equal to the Mini at maximum ??
    I tested the ultimate today at 35% and feel like the CSL 8nm. And it works out as 8nm from 23nm at 35%
    So by that logic the ultimate at 60% should feel like Mini at 13nm, which was very strong for me
    Can you shed some light for me as I want to decided ??

    • @simracingenthusiastreviews
      @simracingenthusiastreviews  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Nah. You cant compare them like that. Ultimate has better acceleration. Every base stronger tends to accelerate better. Its called slew rate and it seems to be connected.

    • @reviewforthetube6485
      @reviewforthetube6485 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The ultimate at 60% will feel stronger then the mini at 100% for one it won't clip for two the motor is stronger in general so the center forced and torque will just feel stronger. People seem to confuse this as it doesn't work the way you are thinking. So it's going to give you more detail, more power and more speed all at the ssme settings the mini would be at max but without any of the clipping or detail loss.

    Have you tried the p1000? Considering this base with the 1000 instead of the 2000.
    Hoping they work out the issues with the 2.0 software. It feels like this might be a great time to hop on the simagic train.

    Been looking into upgrading my g27 for a while, tbh simagic is the only one that ticks my boxes from what I've seen.
    Simucube and asetek both scored down for me on the qr mechanism, was not a fan.
    Moza are interesting, however i prefer the ecosystem of simagic and the small form factor base.
    The only thing i wish we would see is an end to this charge what we like and can get away with era, seeing prices dropping across the board, especially with the higher end products.
    Range prices something like 250-800 for bases and 40-400 for wheels. (40 just being plain blank to swap)
    Seriously the prices some are charging for items regardless of quality and materials is still astronomical in my eyes 😱😭
    Doesn't stop me saving for that alpha u though 🤦‍♂️🤣
