best dyi rig i ve seen so far in terms of functionallity and semplicity. gonna build something very similar, btw the 3 people that disliked probably cant afford the wood to build this
Eltor M m. I want to do the same thing but not sure of material cost though. Do you know? This looks way easier than I thought. I want to trim a bit off the wood and cover it with a paper maiche style IndyCar nose cone.
@@liquidninja04 you mostly need a lot of wood screws and it helps to have some wood laying around, doesn't matter the size. You could get away with building it for less than $50. And the paper maiche idea sounds awesome.
"can't afford the wood" GTFO... people just have brains and know what to look at to judge....maybe people disliked because they can see the wheel deck flex for the 2sec part they are touching it at 1:34 . no gameplay test to see how stable this thing is, which is the most important thing players are looking for in a rig. it's simple: if it flex, it's a bad rig. no flex at all is what players are looking for, but in this video the wheel is moving left and right at the moment they put hands on it, without any force feedback from the wheel. the rest of the video is just a couple people screwing bolts into wood for a basic design.... if it's the best diy rig you've seen you didn't looked much cause there is basically nothing to see here..... a wood structure with bolts is always gonna flex at some point even with entry level wheels. aluminium profile is the way to go for a diy simrig. more expensive than wood, but stable for a long time and still way cheaper than brandname rig.
Big thanks. Nice simple design that has given me some ideas for my project. I would redesign the steering wheel mount though to be more like a desk top, screw the board into the top of the uprights. I'll be using mine for racing and flying so will be changing the steering for cockpit controls.
Moin, you made a fine RIG there I'm more of a hobby at ACC at the Series X and just looked at what material had accumulated over the years. I built my RIG completely out of wood and this is what it looks like now. It only has to be filled and then painted black with orange accents. However, it has become quite massive (1.72 mx 1.20 m). I built in the Gamechair as only I am allowed to sit in it. So he didn't have to go on any rails. Unfortunately, the options on the XBox are very limited. I took the 3 vibrators + control from an old massage mat, screwed 2 of them into the seat and the third to the pedals. Connected via the subwoofer of the Gamechair. Not as optimal as on a PC, but the result is astonishingly good. Engine vibrations, curbs or gear changes are simulated well. I can proudly say that I have made something fantastic for me out of "junk in the basement". Except for a few corners, I had everything lying around. I think it's great when someone thinks about it and builds something for themselves. Anyone can buy ... 😄 Definitely a nice video of you with a great result. Here is a very short video of my RIG in its current state. th-cam.com/video/BuATCe7t4Xs/w-d-xo.html
Hey if you don’t mind me asking, are you using direct drive wheel base or a normal one? I’m thinking about doing this but I am not sure if wood would be strong enough.
Bonjour quel longueur et quel largeur svp je vais faire le même style avec porte gobelet et porte cendrier de l'autre côté et le peindre en et un peu de rouge comme dans les 205gti plus 4 grosses roulettes en dessous roulettes avec frein dessus pour être sûr que sa bouge pas quand je pilote plus une tablette pour installer un jolie compteur les amis mes sa je trouve pas pour x box 36o donc si il y a pas je changerai de console bonne continuation les amis 😉👍
definitely need to drill, only way to not have it move around. Super glue is not strong enough. You could maybe get away with mounting it using velcro but I would just use the mounting holes.
There's already a place to attach it and it's quick and easy to reach. Depending on the track in sim racing, you have to change gears many times per lap. I built a similar rig (with parts of a chair instead of a car seat) and need a place for the shifter. Next to the seat is too far away so I'll probably add a small table to the vertical plank.
Honestly, I just measured the distance from the seat brackets to the pedals, and the height of the steering wheel. We made a lot of adjustments along the way to make it comfortable. If you want I can send over the measurements I ended up using.
@@jwmitch27 Does the trustmaster t300 cost significantly more? But at the same time, it is an order of magnitude better, and the logitech cannot even be called a steering wheel. For such a good cockpit, an appropriate steering wheel is needed, otherwise there is no sense in the cockpit
Dimensions won’t mean anything, if you’re going to custom build then you build for your height, what’s comfortable for you, what seat you buy & what gear you have. Each time they moved forward a step they sat in it and tried it out. You can do the same by deciding what leg length is comfortable for you, what table (steering wheel) height is comfortable for you etc
This is exactly what I've been looking for. Thank you for making this. All the other videos have $1000 set ups.
Thatbrokegamer has a dirt cheap set up tbf
I watch these guys on these 100 grand rigs and they still can't drive, it's hilarious. It's not about the tools, it's about the SKILL LEVEL!

Just wanted to add i made one like 3 years ago and like 1 year into owning it i covered it in polymat for subwoofer boxes made it look way nicer
I built something very similar for my first rig. Still have it in a spare room.
Now I have an Omega GT Art Racer rig.
Just awesome the way u guys designed such an agronomic piece of equipment with a lot of comfort
you're amazing bruh. just followed your steps and works out great!!. thanks so much
you're doing exactly right! Thanks for that. Well done.
Well done Guys
one word, PERFECT

@@thomasmuston105
I drive with a normal G920, bur wood is strong enough
Can you make a video on the electrical components and circuitry wiring.m7ch appreciated
I wish bro slowed down on how to attach the seat to the base I’m tryna learn how to do mine it’s unattached good video thou 👊🏽

Great job!
This is so good!
👏
how can you be cold when working so fast
its good but why not the gearbox a bit down like in a real car
Love this video nice 👍
very good idea i will make this\
awesome
very nice 😀😀😀
Nice BRZ
Whats the length of the build?
Can you pls tell me the measurements?
I know this is really late lol but how were the pedals mounted, super glue or luck with drilling M6 bolt locations
definitely need to drill, only way to not have it move around. Super glue is not strong enough. You could maybe get away with mounting it using velcro but I would just use the mounting holes.
@@lana_monich i think i solved the problem think a sheet of paper over the mount holes and punch through perfect to locate for mounting
Gotcha, nice job
i should have posted a video of my build. . .
what kind of 2x8
Why put the shifter next to the wheel I never get that ?
There's already a place to attach it and it's quick and easy to reach. Depending on the track in sim racing, you have to change gears many times per lap.
I built a similar rig (with parts of a chair instead of a car seat) and need a place for the shifter. Next to the seat is too far away so I'll probably add a small table to the vertical plank.
can i get measurements? thanks!!
I would do some type of channel to hide all the wires
Porque no muestran las medidas?
How sturdy is the wheel mount? Does it sway back and forth?
From the fact it’s 6x2 the whole way round with multiple long screws, absolutely not. I can tell you that from here.
is there a plan for this somewhere
Honestly, I just measured the distance from the seat brackets to the pedals, and the height of the steering wheel. We made a lot of adjustments along the way to make it comfortable. If you want I can send over the measurements I ended up using.
@@lana_monich I honeslty wouldn't mind if you can. Trying to build something similar for myself so just an estimation would be good.
Jaguar seat?
😎👏👏👏
Still you need an already made chair.
Is this solid wood or Plywood? Will this hold a small DD wheel like CSL DD?
how did u mount ur seat
how did you bolt down the pedals tho? and how is it holding up
It looks like the pedals are mounted on a wooden plate that's slightly bigger than the pedal unit and that's bolted to the angled wood parts.
what size did you use for the pedal board
what is the length of that 2x4 seat frame?
Do u have all the sizes u can send out
Can I have like a blueprint
This wonderful thing deserves a real steering wheel, at least t300, and better DD. Not logitec.
😂😂 i love when geeks down logitech as if they didn't only spend $500 or $600 more like their really in another tax bracket 😂😂 stfu dude
@@jwmitch27 Does the trustmaster t300 cost significantly more? But at the same time, it is an order of magnitude better, and the logitech cannot even be called a steering wheel. For such a good cockpit, an appropriate steering wheel is needed, otherwise there is no sense in the cockpit
Unfortunately Logitech make the best DD in the world ( Logitech G Pro Racing Wheel) 😂😂😂
@@drewlegend it's a pity that garbage was put on the cockpit here, and not DD
Song?
buenas tardes amigo podrias mandar las medidas xfa
this isnt a bug you have to set "dri" in negativ not in positiv!!!
Hello. Can you send me a dimensions for rig. Tnx
That's the only reason I clicked on this video lol

Show it being used and adjustments after. Sheesh 🙄
