Drilled and tapped a hole in the frame 1/4-20 thread. Removed base from fan and bolted down with a rubber washer between the frame and fan base. Once base was mounted screwed the fan assembly back into the base.
They can be loud, yes. I have kinda tuned them out though, so they dont really bother me. Sometimes I will pop in some ear buds and then I cant hear them at all @@AmitRamchandran
Have there been many problems with it so far? I was a member of the Facebook group approx 3 years ago but I left eventually because of so many people reporting faults. I'd love to be able to get something at this price point but I don't have the technical ability to be fixing it constantly 🙃
Mine has been fine so far. There is a small percentage of people with problems. Most of the time all you hear about is the problems though, since people are trying to get help. I would def recommend getting the sfu upgrade.
Think of getting this for ps5 & GT7 in VR 🤔 does it feel like a loss of traction when sliding or just movement ? What is SFU ?? You're in the US or UK ?? Thanks
Traction loss feel pretty good. Had to tweak a few settings to get it to feel right. I'm not familiar with setting this rig up on a console. I believe you need something called the magic box to do so. Again, not sure how setup and tuning is compared to PC. I would join the DOF Reality Facebook group and ask around. SFU is the newest gear boxes. It uses a screw drive system, kinda like how an actuator works. Gives smoother motion with no slop. The older gear boxes could be a bit jerky and had a dead spot you would feel when switching directions.
How do you like the Quest Pro? I just got a used one and I'm really impressed with the visuals. My next investment will be motion but I'm not sure if I should go with DOF reality H3 or Eracing lab. setup
Do you get motion sickness? I love to game for long hours. I was more so opting for a triple monitor static setup because I get motion sickness very easily. People sometimes report feelings less motion sickness in a motion rig though. Any input?
I don't get motion sick. Even before I had a motion rig it wasn't much of a problem. I've been into vr for a long time now so it takes a lot to turn my stomach. You build up a tolerance after a while. Long game sessions can be tough in vr, for me it's more of a comfort thing. Gets tiring/hot having something on your face. I'm looking into the big screen beyond, as it looks pretty comfortable.
Yes, very small. I ordered a new rim for it on Amazon that is 13 inches (the one in this video). It's nice, leather, and carbon fiber. Look up R5 wheel, you will find them. Usually around 90-125 dollars. The 11 inch wheel that comes with the R5 was disappointing. My old trust master wheel was 12 inches, and it was a noticeable difference.
it depends, and its subjective. You always know that you are in a simulator. But there are also times where it feels really good, may not be totally realistic, but I've def had some moments where I'm like holy crap that was awesome.
Thanks for the reply, I’m kind of on the fence about getting a H3, but I am not sure if this will give me the immersion that I am looking for or thinking it provides
Dat smile on the crash tells everything about the fun VR+motion rig gives you. How much does it cost for that DOF (i see it on the US website but mb u shipped it from europe). EDIT : ok the copilot is english but i guess your are not now i hear you at the end. :D
Lol, no English is my only language. I was just mumbling probably. Yes the smile does tell it all. Shipping is very high to USA. Just have to factor that into the price.....
hello im a new owner of the H3 with sfu motors, my question is how do you start up a game for instance msfs do you start it from simracing studios or can you start sim racing studios and then start it from desktop the game from desktop? you also dont have to calibrate the motors becuase it is the encoder motors so hopefully start the sim and it will calibrate on its own. thanks
Srs should be open first. Then launch the game normally from steam or whatever. Srs should detect the game and display that your are playing msfs. If it does not you will need to go to the game list in srs and follow the activation instructions for that game. You don't need to calibrate the h3, but you will need to tune each game you play with the sliders. Hope that helps
@@IsaacBayer i heard there are profile presets if you have the premium subscription of SRS do you know anything about that ? and how about motion compensation i have the witmor and cable setup but dont know how to set it up. thank you very much for responding back like i said im new at this
@@richardPalmisano Yes the profiles are nice. You can use them as a baseline and then tweak them to your liking. There is also an inteli tune feature available with the premium sub that can help you auto tune the game. It gets you started. Motion compensation is nice, but I wouldnt focus to much on it until you get used the the rig and how srs works. Once you have it dialed in you can work on motion comp. I do like it, but I would hold off setting it up for now.
@@IsaacBayer thank you so much i dont want to be a pest lol , but im a newbe and just trying to get as much info as i can. im a little nervous trying to get this set up. i did get the simulator all built now its time to get the software and tuning done so thanks for your help.
@@IsaacBayer Thanks for replying.I live on the 3rd floor in an apartment. My only worry is that I would disturb the family below me. You think that’s a non issue?
cool video hope yuou having fun that looks like a sweet setup
Slack in the rose joints going on there
Not at all, tolerances very tight.
Hi, I am wondering how you connected those wind fans to the two sides of the H3? What mounting brackets did you use?
Drilled and tapped a hole in the frame 1/4-20 thread. Removed base from fan and bolted down with a rubber washer between the frame and fan base. Once base was mounted screwed the fan assembly back into the base.
Given that the fan is right there, is it too noisy? @@IsaacBayer
They can be loud, yes. I have kinda tuned them out though, so they dont really bother me. Sometimes I will pop in some ear buds and then I cant hear them at all @@AmitRamchandran
How much far is your desk from the wall to fit the sim
how did you get the motion rig so smooth? can you show settings
Answer is in the title of the video: he has the SFU gearboxes upgrade

Looks pretty nice !
Du you have restricted det range on the software or is this around the max movements?
It's pretty much full range. I might have it back off 5 or 10 percent.

Did you had to drill holes to mount the moza wheel base ?
If I remember correctly only two holes line up and I had to drill two more.
Was the seat unmounted from a Playseat?
Yes
maybe you can explain how to make the image in full screen. I can't get anything....thank you
Just press alt-enter on the keyboard
This is an amazing setup. Does the Moza ES wheel you use feel small in your hands? Im not sure about whether to get that or the CS wheel.
Yes, very small. I ordered a new rim for it on Amazon that is 13 inches (the one in this video). It's nice, leather, and carbon fiber. Look up R5 wheel, you will find them. Usually around 90-125 dollars. The 11 inch wheel that comes with the R5 was disappointing. My old trust master wheel was 12 inches, and it was a noticeable difference.
Iv'e got the Fanatec Classic that is like 13,4 inches, i feel its a bit too big for rally. Between 11-12 would be perfect imo
@@je.678 I had the thrustmaster 12" alcantara wheel, and that felt really nice. I think 11" would be good for go cart racing though.
Does it feel real or does it feel more like an arcade like?
it depends, and its subjective. You always know that you are in a simulator. But there are also times where it feels really good, may not be totally realistic, but I've def had some moments where I'm like holy crap that was awesome.

Buy from US distributors, and save that way. However, to get the new frame I suggest ordering direct.
@@IsaacBayer how much for shipping and custom fees?
@@EdvinDzafcic what do you mean new frame?

Is it loud?
No, not at all.

@@orngfilmsmedia4561 I think it would be fine. You could put a rubber mat down as well.
