    It's great that these two companies have started making and competing for good, low price DD options. We as consumers always benefit in these types of situations.
    Personally, I went with Moza as their stuff just looked to be better quality and less like a toy. Moza stuff looks like racing gear whereas Fanatec's stuff looks like gaming gear. I've been very happy with my R5 and with my next splurge, I can jump to the top of the of the NM scale since the R21 is only $1000 - which in sim racing is not bad!

    I like Moza a bit more, because the unit is smaller and the Wheel it prettier imo.
    But upgradability is an important factor. The pedals of the starter bundles are obviously bad but with fanatec you have the possibility to upgrade your pedal to a load cell instead of being forced to buy completely new pedals, which is huge.
    But I'm still undecided. I have to watch more reviews. 😂

    The possibility to upgrade the Wheelbase with a PSU to 8 NM and buying the Loadcell brake later on is a huge bonus for Fanatec. If you want this on Moza you have to sell the R5 and get the R9 and the SRP Pedals which is in fact more expensive than the CSL 8NM + CSL LC Pedals. And no third pedal with MOZA.

If I want to get around the same power with moza I need to spend 900$ for the r9 bundle and pedals and that’s just too much, wondering if the extra wheel size and power, and better pedals makes it worth the risk of dealing with fanatecs reliability or quality (also fanatec is 3 times faster shipping and also like 75% cheaper shipping cost 😂😢)

    I'm so torn between the two. One huge factor is the pedals. The r5 has no option of adding a load cell pedal, and the pedals only work with the r5, and that limits the market to sell them if you want to upgrade the pedals. Also I primarily race oval racing, so the larger diameter on the fanatec is better, in my opinion. Also worth noting is the fanatec does not come with the table clamp and is $30 extra.

    The quick release collar on the Fanatec DOES loosen and disconnect from time to time, as you point out. I hadn't experienced the loss of wheel connectivity for a while until the other day when all FFB and ability to change gears ruined a race for me.
    It took me ages to figure out what the issue was. At first I thought it was me sitting on my controller (or contacting it) and causing a conflict between it, the wheel, and the console.
    Out of frustration I finally took the wheel completely off, remounted it, and REALLY tightened the collar. Voila, problem solved. I was just about to place and order for a Logitech G-Pro, which is a superior wheel, I think, when you add in Truforce.
    Can you do a review of the Logitech wheel, with loadcell pedals?

      All the other G series stuff seems OK from the top of my head though.
      The main factor with logitech I feel, is build quality and overall reliability.

    @HeretixAevum 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    One thing I strongly prefer about the fanatec is that it has a dedicated handbrake port and TWO dedicated shifter ports on the back of the base. Because I'm not going to have a dedicated setup (at least not to start with) I intend to put everything on a stand and simply move it into place in front of my PC when I want to race. Only needing to plug in one USB into my computer instead of 3 is a very nice quality of life feature.
    That and the fact that you can upgrade it to get 8nm, the lower price and the wheel that it comes with is more suitable for my preferred discipline (rallying), and its the CSL DD for me. The Moza definitely has a lot going for it, though, and seems like a very solid option.

The question is, how will it affect the overall health of the device. The R5 remains on my list to buy so if I find a good deal on it, I will certainly test it too.

    I went with a MOZA R5 it was open box at my local microcenter it was brand new and untouched for $424 I couldn't pass it up I also bought the Moza hgp shifter and clutch add on and just got a cs wheel in they mail the shifter is by far the best shifter I've ever used in a sim everything else feels like a toy compared to mozas shifter it even feels better when shifting than fanatecs and the cs wheel absolutely destroys and fanatec wheel in or around the $249 I paid for it it's solid metal and carbon fiber the closest thing fanatec has the club sport rs cost $349 and it's button box is plastic and there's zero carbon on that wheel Moza just in oozes quality I have zero regrets and I'm honestly glad the fanatec csl dd was out of stock and I had to look elsewhere it was definitely for the better especially at what I paid I was really lucky direct drive is most certainly where it's at

    • @SimulatedDrivingResource
      @SimulatedDrivingResource  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I agree. From what I have seen of MOZA, it is superior for quality than Fanatec and that CS wheel is exactly the wheel I would buy and like you say, a wheel specced like that at Fanatec is much more expensive. If you can buy an R5 for that price, even the "issue" that you cant upgrade the base (make it more powerful) is less relevant. But again, this depends from region to region. In Europe, I do find the prices for MOZA just too inflated.

      @@SimulatedDrivingResource A few days after writing this review, I found a moza R5 from an official distributor with a pre-order option. :)) It was around $875 and I bought it immediately. Unfortunately, I've been waiting for a long time, but I don't mind since I bought it cheaply and it has a valid warranty in Turkey. I even bought it in 6 months installments :)
      I would have to bring Fanatec CSL DD illegally. There are many people in Turkey who use it like this. Since Fanatec does not provide official dealership and only operates as online sales, there are serious taxes at Turkish customs. That's why they don't ship personal orders.
      Rather than paying the same money for a product without warranty, it made more sense to buy a MOZA brought to Turkey through official means. Because, if I want to buy an LC pedal, a new wheel, or a new pedal set in the future, I will have to look at those that come illegally. Moreover, they sell them at exorbitant prices as if the taxes have been paid.
      In conclusion;
      I always had 8NM CSL DD in mind, but it didn't happen. What I'm curious about is that when you increase it to 8nm, they say the holding torque is equal to 6nm. MOZA R5's 5.5nm power is also said to be really good. Is there a significant power difference with CSL DD? I think about this all the time. If I want to buy R9, I will have to stretch my budget very much right now. That's why I was able to get R5.
      Thanks.

      I have been wanting to buy both of these wheels, but the R5 is $730 for me, and the Fanatec $610 with the Mclaren GT3 wheel. But the problems with overheating units, and malfunctioning wiresless data units made me go with the Fanatec. I am happy so far. And for $50 I get a good industrial grade PSU (not the cheap ebay ones people write about) to make it 8Nm instead if I want. Havent needed to open any fanatec software cause it feels great out of the box :) But I mostly play Assetto Corsa Competezione which is a fanatec sponsored title, so would be wierd otherwise (it also has some fanatec extras in the game settings), I also find the Moza wheels to be quite ugly to be honest compared to my GT3 wheel :)

      I bought the GT3 wheel the other week, and also before getting the wheel i bought all the things to make the buttons less noisy..and guess what, Fanatec must have upgraded the wheel, cause you can hardly hear the gearshifter anymore, so I did not have to mod it :) only the pit limited and neutral botton sounds, but I never use them anyway. Only bad thing about the wheel is that the rotary encoders feel very cheap, but the grip is very comfy!, been playing for hours today without any problems. Not sure why its too weak in corners? its way harder than a normal car to steer, even harder then the karts i used to drive and they have no power steering, which GT3 cars actually have.

      More forces mean effects are less stacked on one another. Effects are more separated, people buying 20nm wheel base don’t put it at 100% forces. 60% is roughly the TS-XW force, good if you either have a very "light hand" grip in any circonstances or very weak arms. So yeah running 60% of its power it wont overheat but if you can’t run your small forces dd with full power without it overheating it’s not good when the CSL barely get hotter than room temperature at full power after driving it for 2 hours
