Until you mentioned it, I didn't know they made a cockpit extension for the APEX. That settles it. I'm getting an APEX. Love that I can "upgrade" to a full cockpit later, and start with a smaller investment. The best of both worlds, really. Thanks man!
The extension is for the classic.
@@danylbekhoucha6180 No they have an APEX extension now. Not in stock but it will be back at some point.
I bought my gt omega apex wheel stand based on this review and the one from sim racing garage and I can confirm everything that Karl is mentioning in this review. I am so happy with the stand, now I am upgrading the stand with the rear seat frame, also based on Karl's review.
Good choice!
Close to 6K subscribers and manufacturers sending you their products for review! Congrats! Well deserved, Karl!
Thanks Pablo I appreciate that! :)
I just order the GT Omaga Apex with your link after watching this review. Keep up the great content.
Awesome! Thank you!
Just ordered one of these to go alongside my Fanatec CSL DD to get it off my desk and mount my pedals properly. I like that it is foldable as well so I can easily move it away when I'm done driving, as I am one of those people who do live in a flat but want to sim race! Thanks for the detailed review!
Ah thats great, enjoy mate!
I appreciate your review and the promo code. I almost bought a foldable cockpit from Next Level Racing or Playseat. After much consideration I chose the GT Omega Apex Wheel Stand. The option to upgrade was a major factor in my decision. I'm new to SIM racing and recently purchased a PS5, Gran Turismo 7, and the Logitech G29 Wheel & Pedals with a Logitech Shifter.
Enjoy mate!
Almost bought this one but it was sold out so I went with the NLR wheel stand 2.0 and absolutely loving it. It handles my Fanatec GT DD pro with ease!
This was an absolutely quality review. Told me everything I needed. About to get into this and take the plunge with this stand and a G923. Nice presenting style and sweet gaming set up. Thanks.
game here. im currently shopping for steering wheel set up and a stand. the logitech g923 and this stand is going to be my setup too
@@A-DUBCLUB Just made the plunge last night my friend. Can't wait to see what it's like. The G923 looks awesome.
@@ortholad853 oh bro i soo cant wait to put it all together and have a race on forza 4 or dirt 2.0. Let me know how it is lad.. how is the force feedbac? Does it give off a real steering like feel?
@@A-DUBCLUB Not here yet. But looking forward to Forza 4 as well. If you are on Xbox the only game that supports trueforce feedback is GRID and that is on sale now on the Microsoft store for £7.50 (£9.99 for ultimate edition). Might be worth picking up for your incoming wheel👍🏻
How have you found it? Want to get myself a G29 and not sure what stand to go with as I need to fold it up to save room and will be sitting on a sofa
I have been watching all of your videos over the last few days to get an idea of what I want to get. I have just gotten into sim racing in the last year, and these are really practical and helpful to a broke college student. Thanks for the quality content.
Glad you like them mate! :)
Another great review Karl. Good to see manufacturers sending you some products, shows they appreciate your honest and informative reviews as much a we do. Room looking well too by the way 😃 keep up the great work
Cheers Barry! Yeah the room and house is coming along now, still a few things to get but money is as always holding things back... never enough of it! lol
Stumbled across this video review by accident, and have now watched quite a few. I really appreciate your honesty in all your subject matters. On the strength of this review, i have just purchased one of these for my son. I cannot wait to see his face on Christmas day...Thanks Karl :)
You and he will not be disappointed, great place to start! :)
@@KarlGosling Yes he is well chuffed. He's been making do with a modified Black and Decker workmate for 3 yrs.. Merry Christmas :)
I just watched this review and your review of the "Classic" stand and you've convinced me to pay the extra, lots of useful info in both reviews!
Glad I could help!
Lol, that airplane sounded like it was coming through your roof with headphones on. Thanks for the review.
lol It was loud!
Hi Karl! I've got this few months back in sale 100 euro. I waited 6 months for the csl dd to come back in stock and nw I have finally both of them.
Perfect combination. The wheel base is tiny and it doesn't add to the depth of the wheel stand when closed, and despite it's not easy to move because all in it its more than 20kg, this gives the stand a lot of sturdiness.
one other thing. The customer service is excellent. I called them because a plastic knob was broken when the pack arrived. They sent me 2, not one. Just in case, and with a speedy delivery
Great experience mate!
might as well be a giant boulder. this thing doesn't move. i love how they give so many extra bits just in case. best stand i've ever used
How is it holding up?
Great review Karl. Your vids are easy to watch & it's good to see the details of assembly as well as a use test. Thanks for all the quality content.
Glad you like them!
Just got mine w/ the chair rail so it keeps the wheels locked. It's so good! W/ the rear rail it's an awesome way to not spend a load on a full cockpit/chair
Only just stumbled across your review so a bit late to the party. Very informative and helpful. Will definitely be placing an order shortly. Have subscribed and liked.... Look forward to watching some more of your videos. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Martin, appreciated mate.
I've also ordered this stand (& the G920+shifter) and was a bit concerned about assembly. I feel much better about it now. Thanks Karl!
Yeah it's pretty easy, I'm sure you'll be fine! 😃
Real useful review. I’m considering getting a wheel and pedals to use with the VR version of GT7, and this looks like a good platform to use with an entry level wheel. I like the idea of being able to turn it into a full cockpit at a later date, if I’m still enjoying sim racing. This is a great channel; I’ve watched a few of your other videos. I’m definitely subscribing.
Thanks mate!
@@KarlGosling thanks again for the review. I ended up getting the the Apex wheel stand and have found it to be a great choice to use with my G923 and GT7 on the PSVR2. I used your code for a bit of a discount, which was a nice bonus. 👍
My chair has wheels/swivel so I can bail out just before I crash! Saved me quiet a few times...
I love how agree with this I just a bought it myself and reviewed love you’re content and inspired me to start making videos ❤ keep up the great work
Just got this in a sale on their site and used your discount code, got it for £113, I can't wait to get it set up
Thats a great price!
Another quality video mate.... Ive got myself a playseat challenge and logitech g29 all setup spot on thanks too you... I'm mega happy with what I've got but still love watching your reviews on other products... Keep it up mate... All the best!!!!!
Thanks mate thats nice of you! :)
I was looking at this stand but opted for the Next Level one instead. It's a beast of a wheel stand. Only reason was the next level stand has Flight Sim parts you can buy for it and looks better build quality, No thin strips of metal holding the pedal base down. Great review as always
I find your comment really interesting since I was considering buying the apex for flight simming (honeycomb yoke, saitek throttle/pedals). What was it about the next level stand that really benefits flight sim peripherals? Pre-drilled holes? Also, how’s it held up, you’re happy with it and don’t regret going with it over the apex?
Awesome video mate! I love how thorough you are in showing how everything works. Please keep the videos coming!!!!!
Doing my best mate thanks! :)
Great review. Just ordered the apex using your link for my thrustmaster tx wheel. keep up the good work fella.
Hope you enjoy it!
Great video. I was able to grab the last one, at that time, on Amazon here in the states. I am very happy with it
Same I got mine just in time not even a few hours later they were sold out again
My wife bought me a Logitech G29 for Christmas. I’ve just bought this stand off the back of your review. I used your code so hopefully you get your little bit of commission. Great review. Looking forward to getting the stand.
Awesome! Thank you!
How have you found it?
I have been eyeballing one of these for a while. Definitely gonna pull the trigger on one now! Thanks for the vid!
No worries! :)
Did you go for it? If so, how's it going?
thanks also for explaining the chair lean issue funnly enough office chairs dont lean back as easy but they twist
Just found your channel, really liking the content mate, helped me setup my first steering wheel the G920👍
Welcome aboard!
I've definitely watched a few of his videos as I sit here waiting for my G920.
I'm using the Apex with Fanatec CSW V 2.5 and V3 pedals + performance kit (hard green/green). No complains whatsoever. With the whole thing assembled including pedals, wheelbase with USB hub and power supply it's heavy as hell. My pedals are mounted as far to the end as possible on the plate. Pulling on the wheel with feet resting on the plate does nothing.
Just ordered one of these Karl as part of Black Friday 2020, hopefully the affiliate link worked. Thanks for all the content. 👍
Ah great, enjoy it mate! :)
hey thanks for showing it folded i smiled so hard when u mentioned my comment. between now an friday i should have mine deliverd so keen.
Great choice , I absolutely love mine. It made all the difference. Cheers
Ordered GT Omega Apex wheel stand, very useful review, everything i really needed to see except maybe should have put your strongest wheel to see how much force it needs to start actually flexing and impacting gameplay (put the stand through its paces alongside its actual target, the general weaker wheelbases like G29, T300,...), but for G29 and up to 8nm in general seems to be doing great on its own (without the reinforced upgrade kit to the full cockpit).
Some youtuber put DD1 on it and for the giggles put full 20NM of force, and boy it does flex and squeak but it still survived but after 8NM (he tested 4-8-12-16-20) it does start to affect somewhat input the higher the worse it gets.... Which means it can endure even the full DD pro which is great.
Cheers for the discount code! black friday discount + code, nifty 25 euros off the price. 105e don't think there's a better and more robust wheelstand at the time haha.
Hey Karl, new sub here after watching your awesome vids!
After going back and forth between the Art rig seated cockpit and this Apex stand I chose the Apex stand.The reason is I had to come up with a solution to race in three different rooms. I'll need a caster wheel solution for the Apex stand to wheel it to different rooms. Would be better than lugging it around.
My game room has a large standup MAME arcade type cabinet so the screen is pretty high off the ground. I felt I'd be looking up too high and too far at the arcade screen from a seated cockpit position in the Art rig. I don't believe I could have brought the whole rig up high enough or close enough for an arcade machine height - for it to be comfortable or convenient. I can imagine the neck and eye strain pains now looking up and far from a Art rig position. Also for that arcade machine I think a standing up solution is more nostalgic so I can just raise the stand to arcade height. I'll be trying to configure retro racers soon on it. Hey maybe that's a suggestion for your retro channel??? Would love to see that!
The 2nd room is a living room with a leather sectional with electric seats. I can sit in one of those leather seats about 10 feet away with the stand lowered this time and play Xbox-x centered on an a big screen TV. So again no need for the seated Art rig.
The 3rd place is an office room where I have a wrap around desk and a big screen TV mounted to the wall behind desk.. Have my PC in there with PC racers. Again it would be too low with the Art rig but this stand would also solve this problem, raise the stand medium height and it clears the desk. I can sit in a gaming chair with the wheels locked.
In conclusion I think the stand serves a lot of scenarios that wouldn't work with a seated cockpit and might not be as niche as one would think. Looking forward to more vids on both your channels!
Sounds like a stand is the best choice for you mate for sure!
Thanks for the sub and I hope you find my videos helpful :)
Great review, well articulated and composed video. I think the wobble is completely from your thick carpet, ive seen reviews with this stand on solid ground and that way its much more stable. Also i personally use office chair with wheels and it doesnt swivel at all while racing. I was on the fence with next level racing wheel stand dd (370€) and gt omega apex (180€) but i find for my current t150 and clubsport v2.5 in the future, gt omega apex to be enough, for nlr dd, local 370€ price is too much imo.
Jokes on you. They are not thin.
hey karl, i watched this review to help me decide on what stand was suitable for my room setup and found your video to be really helpful so i purchased this stand using the link you left below and just wanna say thanks as the discount code automatically applied :) also i used your settings for asseto corsa which was a heaven sent! subbed and much appreciated :)
Glad I could help mate thanks and enjoy your new setup!
AHH that review is out!!! cant wait! quick turn around Karl Awesome Job!
Cheers mate! :)
Review convinced me to purchase this for myself! thanks for the promo code, and I can't wait until it arrives!
Have fun!
Want to upgrade my Wheel Stand Pro to this. Too bad it's out of stock. Hope they restock soon :)
Thanks so much for all your reviews big man. Haven’t played a racing game since Mariokart. Not a fan of circuit racing, like you. Then tripped over DR2 when Sony gave it away back in March, and I’m hooked. Not made the purchase of a wheel yet. Bit paranoid the PS5 may not support the Thrustmaster T300 RS GT I’ve set my sights on so holding off. Thoughts on that? Wife’s adamant I’m not having a cockpit in the flat. So this may be my only option. Or I could trade the Missis in.....
@karl Gosling
Hi KG, nice review I found your channel while back earlier in the year as I was looking for sim setups for long time starting with small budget and your Logitech review helped loads. I'm new to Sim had about 5months + now and I went with the g920 setup on Xbox with the classic GT omega stand. I chose the classic as I like the v1 shifter position that was seperate to the steering column position. All in all found it works very well pretty much as you've explained in the apex only issues are when I first had shifter RHD felt it kept getting loose very quickly I was driving the sim more but ifelt it get loose very quickly does need screwing in abit more regular whilst I've had it LHD it's been abit more solid. The chair issue has been major disadvantage I've got the stand on laminate flooring but on a racing mat , and just a normal table chair however always sliding backwards n having down straights to adjust the chair and move I've purchased the extendable frame to make a rig and got a OMP FIA race seat which I will bolt on to the frame when comes so that should help sturdiness alot more and not have worry sweet spot all time which is main issue . Other point is the rig/frame means can only use the V2 shifter mount as in apex so from u feedback looks fine but. Again nice review. And is there any video on your main setup you got next to your review one I'm looking to slowly upgrades parts at a time mainly pedals and shifter but you look like got great setup any videos u have on your setup or if not to make one be great.
Sorry long message
Thanks for all the info you give us
Yeah the classic is where I started after being desk mounted, works fine.
The chair issue is a pain but just the way it is with wheel stands.
Rear frame should really sort things out, good move! :)
V2 mount is 100% fine to use mate.
Not yet but there will be :)
Happy to help mate :)
Great video. Living in a condo so, I don’t have a ton of space.
Subscribing because this review made me buy this and I used your coupon code! Thanks for the awesome review and saving me $8!
lol no worries mate, enjoy!
The feet on my Apex wheel stand are different than your sample. They are a lot flatter, like steel pancakes. They're less likely to dig into carpets I would imagine.
I know the ones you mean, my old Classic Wheel Stand had those too.
Noticed you have it against your TV stand. So my question is would it move forward if you don't push the stand up against anything especially on carpet?
Thanks so much for this video Karl, I was losing my mind wondering why my Apex wouldn't fold up! I'd tightened the nuts just like you had, haha
Easy mistake! lol
Also just bought this today based on this review - thanks for 5% off as well bud ;).
Means i to can upgrade this few months down the line when i get the other bedroom sorted for it..
Hope you enjoy it mate!
I did the short calibration. I just have to stop over pushing it now.
Can someone tell me the distance between the bolt holes to the feet underneath? 😊 if its the same as Next level racing wheel stand 2.0? I want to buy the apex rear seat frame and mount my NLR stand on 😊
Ty for this review. Bought after watching.
Hope you enjoy it!
Just got mine in today, solid review thank you
No problem 👍
You know you can use a chair with wheels with locking wheels right...?
Great video. I recently bought a used Next level Racing GT Ultimate V2 seat and the Monitor stand that is designed to bolt up to the NLR Wheel Stand. Do you know if this one would work in between my NLR Seat and Monitor stand? The NLR Wheel stand is nearly x2 the cost of this one. I would rather save the cash and use this if it will work.
Im thinking of buying this or the Playseat Challenge? What would be your recommendation? (Also a cool concept for a video even though it isn’t a review would be using the racing wheel and a vr headset, not entirely sure how it would work but would be pretty cool imo)
As I said in this video mate it really depends on what you need, there's pros and cons to both.
Karl Gosling ah right okay yeah, I just watched the video where you compared the two, and I think the Playseat is what I’m going to go for. Thanks man love the vids.
Great review mate, so thorough.
Thanks a ton!
Hi Karl amazing review but can you mount a handbrake next to the wheel ?
With a bit of DIY you can mount almost anything anywhere mate! :)
Hmm... I have an order (hopefully) about to be sent on its way from Fanatec; CSL Elite to upgrade my faithful G27 setup currently attached to a small dedicated table thingy used in conjunction with the sofa. I was thinking about getting a GT Lite to use with it and stash away when not used, but the sofa does a pretty good job as far as seating position goes, and now I'm thinking the GT Omega might actually be a good bet. The platform for the H-shifter is a must. Out of curiosity, how do you find the position of the shifter table?
It was fine for me mate, but we're all different shapes ans sizes so I can't vouch for how you will like it.
@@KarlGosling Thanks for the info. Since I'm currently using the g27 shifter table-mounted next to the wheel, I'm sure it would be an improvement. Sadly, I just noticed in the specs the minimum height of the stand is 80 cm, which is nearly 20 cm taller than the table I'm using. Using the sofa, the wheel would be face height. Looks like I'm going to have to keep looking, which is a shame, as this is an otherwise really decent looking bit of kit. Perhaps the Next Level Racing wheel stand... Actually, scratch that. Now I'm thinking Trakracer FS3. Not as convenient to fold away, but looks to check every other box.
Got the Apex and have an SHH shifter on the way. I wonder how I'd mount the cheap 14bit usb handbrake that was reviewed here onto the mount as well. The hope would be rally side by side vertically but I can't see how I will get that brake on that smaller shifter plate.
Your T-shirt provider is a demi-god!
lol cheers! :)
Finally ordered the Apex stand, and I have my cargo strap ready. I'm all set! LOL
How have you been finding it?
@@_1ShadeofGray_ Setting it in place takes longer than clamping the wheel to my desk, and if I need to adjust how far I am from the stand, that is a lot of trial and error. But the setup is a lot closer to driving a car. The shifter is where I want it to be. The pedals are always in the same place, and the wheel seems to be stronger because its hard mounted and doesn't have any give. I should have got a wheel stand a long time ago.
@@wwjnz9263 Thanks. I'm planning on getting a G29 but am going to be sitting on a sofa, and need something foldable to save space. Wasn't sure if this was worth it or whether the cheaper "classic" model was worth it. It sounds like the Apex is worth it though 👍
@@_1ShadeofGray_ If I were couch gaming, the Apex would still work well. Just be prepared for a weighty stand. Its about 22lbs.
Just wondering, do you think you could use this with one of those folding camp chairs. Would the wheel position go lower but still allow you to have a comfy angle for the pedals if you set them further away from you?
Possibly mate, I don't have one to try but it could work.
Hello mate, another great video.
Just a quick one not I know you haven't tried it yet (well no video yet so im going with haven't tried it yet) but do you think the CSL DD would still be a suitable fit with this wheel stand with its lower output or would you recommend the NLR DD wheel stand?
The CSL DD will work with the Apex but you may have a slightly better experience using the NLR DD as it is a bit more solid mate.
I've not tried it as I don't have either wheel stand any more.
@@KarlGosling I was originally thinking that but like the functionality of the fold away. So naturally I feel like I should follow up with (Sorry to ask so many questions) do you think a playseat challenge would be a good fit?
I take it you would recommend the Playseat Challenge over this stand since it has a seat? I was debating between a stand vs cockpit. Found a Playseat for $130US but unsure which route to go down.
Sorry....just found your video comparing the two. Got my answer. 😅
Hey Karl! I appreciate your channel and videos so much! I just purchased a Titan Cockpit from GT Omega and have a Logitech G29 wheel for Playstation. I have been scouring the internet trying to find video showing how you secure the wheel base to the rig's mounting plate and I thought this video was the one....but then I saw that you skipped over that part during your review, haaha. Does the G29 secure to the plate using just the two side plastic clamps? I reached out to GT Omega and they said, "The mounting plate for the Titan Cockpit is the same as the Apex Wheel Stand." So my question is, how do I secure it to the mounting plate - with just the two plastic side clamps? I also tried to find an unboxing video for a G29 and I couldn't find any that included bolts or anything I would secure the wheel to.the plate outside of the two clamps.
I hope this makes sense and thank you in advance for your help. I thought I'd try and reach out to you and see if you had any guidance! Thanks mate! Keep up your channel's good work!
The G29 has two bolt holes in the bottom, I think the Titan may have come with some for this purpose... if not then any two M6 x16mm bolts will do.
@@KarlGosling Karl! Thanks so much for your fast reply. Right, so two bolt holes on the G29. My last question is - and forgive me if this seems elementary - the bolt pattern for the G29 should match the plate on the Titan if it's got the same plate as the Apex Wheel stand in this video then correct? (Like I said above, GT Omega claims they are the same plate). My G29 arrives Friday, so I can run to a hardware store in the mean time and get some M6 X 16MM bolts. I just wanted to make sure....the damn holes match up between the G29 and the Titan Cockpit plate.
Thanks ever so much for your fast reply. I've been a 'dining chair + table' racer for years, so this is all a bit new to me. Haha.
Cheers!
Great video once again!
Thank you! Cheers!
Have you tried your Fanatec pedals on any of these 'cheap' seats/stands you've reviewed or are they just not suitable due to the force required on the brake pedal?
I haven't mate, but only because my main rig is all fitted really neatly and it's not easy to remove anything.
But the G920 Brake pedal is almost as hard to press (at 100%) as my V3's! lol So I'd say they would be fine (bar the Playseat Challenge lifting issue or wheel stand chair leaning back) clutch and accelerator pedals are far softer anyway.
Nice Review Karl
Thanks! 👍
Help!!! - I've literally just ordered this for use with both my Thrustmaster TMX Wheel/Pedals and also with my Saitek/Logitec Yoke along with my Thrustmaster Rudder Pedals - I've looked for screws in the boxes of both my TMX Wheel and Saitek/Logitec Yoke to mount them to the Wheel Plate and also my Pedals to the Pedal Plate and none came with any them, so I assume such screws come with the APEX Steering Wheel Stand, yes? I'm expecting the Wheel Stand to arrive in a couple of days and as I see it I will only be able to mount my TMX Wheel and my Yoke to the Wheel Stand by using the "desk clamps" that came with them and my pedals will just have to "sit" on the Pedal Plate of the Stand unless it comes with some type of mounting screws?
Hey, very useful video! I'm gonna buy this wheelstand to get into sim racing but I wonder if it is also possible to mount flight sim gear on this wheel stand like the Hotas Warthog for example?
Between this and the classic, which do you find better in terms of quality and the price difference? Want to get myself a G29 but am going to be sitting on a sofa and need to fold something up to save room so not sure what to go for
I'd go for this if your budget allows mate, much more sturdy.
Have you tried it with belt or dd wheels? If so, how did they perform? You also put it against some furniture. Would it move if free standing?
It's not for DD use, although the CSL DD would be fine as thats no more powerful than belt driven bases.
No it doesn't move, it wasn't pressing against my furniture.
@@KarlGosling thanks mate
I was curiously looking for a racing wheel stand, and I was wondering what you thought of this one. Thank you.
No problem 👍
Great video! 👌
Thanks!
great review
Cheers!
Sir could you please do the G29 settings, calibration and force feedback settings for F1 2020? I would appreciate it because you helped me a lot back in the days of F1 2018 and i think they changed something in the game so it would be very kind of you to make a new video. Thanks in advance.
I will when I get a chance mate yes!
I find 75% strength, 1% damper and understeer enhance on works for my G29. Allows you to feel changes at full load and you can countersteer fast if you lose traction
Currently running a G923 on this stand but have a Fanatec 5Nm bundle on order. I have been told by GT Omega that the stand is not suitable for direct drive wheels. Will the stand be ok or not?
5Nm will be ok yes.
Does the plate have pre-drilled holes for hardmounting CSL DD? If not, what wheel stand does?
The CSL DD has adjustable bolt positions using t nuts in rails so can fit pretty much anything.
@@KarlGosling Thanks, I just ordered the GTOMEGA Prime with the fat bastard seat, can't wait to be able to race comfy for a change.
Can i use this for Fanatec CSL DD 8NM?
Yes but it will flex as most entry level stands do.
Can u give an updated tour of that set up on behind u or ur left I mean with the red black chair
Will do! :)
If I brace the stand against a wall, will the feet of it or the pedal stand hit the wall first? Rather would not push my weak walls with the pedal stand lol. Thanks!
100% worth it. Buy one
Thinking about getting this but wondering if you’re able to mount a handbrake to it? It doesn’t look like there would be room for one. Any thoughts?
Hi Karl, do you think this stand would be suitable for the new CSL DD?
It will work for sure, it's only 8nm, but of course a full cockpit would be better as for any wheel.
@@KarlGosling Unfortunately I have very limited space so this seems ideal. Thanks for the advice :)
Great content Karl
Cheers! :)
Just bought one on eBay for £80 basically brand new
Nice!
Would this be suitable for the fanatec DD GT Pro 8nm?
it will work but of course there will be some flex or wobble as with all wheel stands at this price point.
You should do a handbrake mod on this and wheelstand
I don't have the wheel stand any more mate sorry.
How bad is the lean back when braking? Can it handle the Fanatec load cell brake without me falling off?
That will depend on what chair you are using mate.
@@KarlGosling what about a simple office chair from IKEA? And does the chair tray in the newer models actually fix that issue?
just bought it with the Logitech G29
Perfect starting point! :)
Where on earth can I find the keyboard tray accessory for this wheelstand? It's been sold out all year it seems and I need it!!!!!!!
Everything is bloody sold out it's been a real pain!
This^^^ I’ve been trying to find a triple monitor accessory for mine and it’s literally impossible right now.
Great video! Do you think this works with a sofa?
Yes but the position will of course vary from sofa to sofa.
@@KarlGosling Thanks!
Bruuuuuuu I’m struggling at putting the pedals on its pissing me off now
Do you think I should get this or a playseat challenge/ next level racing f-gt lite?
Entirely up to you mate, I don't know your needs.
Thanks!
Thanks very much!!
Hey does this work with the G923 wheel? Thanks
Yes mate!
Are you going to keep the wheel stand or planning ti sell it off soon?
It will be going in a month or so.
@@KarlGosling copy that. Are you posting it on marketplace or something?
