Weekend plans?? 👇
getting my 3d printer to work so i can make a new wheel for my G29
SLEEPING JUST SLEEEP
@@LTNGStrike17 send a photo of it when done in my discord! Would love to see it
@@TheSimracer277 relatable
Working on a handbrake design :)
I bought my whole rig used (tm t300, this shifter, although bought from aliexpress and a rally style handbrake.) Was definitely worth it, and about the wear part, it was used by the previous user for around a 100 hours and i have been using it for probably 1k hours at this point, and it feels like it did 'day one'.
And suprisingly no visible wear despite my very aggressive driving style.
@@karhu07 good to know! Thanks for sharing
I bought one of these as I was tired of my old Fanatec CSR Elite shifters from 8 years ago. I was on my 2nd H shifter and was tired of not having a 7spd H pattern box. I went with this and I have absolutely ZERO regrets. I plan on modding it some to reduce some of the noise.
loooove this channel one of the only ones that provide proper good entry level gear reviews!!! tysm!!!
Thank you! And I appreciate you for watching 🤝
Awesome review. Your vid’s look better and better every upload, nice transitions, sound, everything. Keep up the good work!
Time to find a good wheel to go with this, slowly building together a parts list and this is for sure on it
That's actually nicer than I expected, maybe I'll get one so I can drive the occasional manual car. I usually drive a paddle shifter car 95% of the time so it's nice to have a cheap good shifter for that remaining 5%!
They are actually solid. A little hollow and clicky sounding but nice feeling overall.
Buy it off aliexpress a lot cheaper then off amazon got mine for £40 and arrived in a week
@@lolthekidison You can easily mod this and remove hollow and clanky sound. My mechanical keyboard experience came to play with this lol. Mind sounds satisfying thocky. no longer obnoxious
@@jamirvillarosa7924 how did you mod it, i am interested in nodding it myself too since i use my rig a lot and would appreciate a more 'immersive' experience
@@karhu07 lube the bearings and loosen the the screws that holds the bearings(optional, this changes the resistance of the shifter and somewhat adds to silencing). Cut small piece of neoprene foam that's big and snug enough to put in the space behind the bearings where the shaft hits. This way, the foam won't fall down. This will reduce the noise significantly. And finally, apply multiple layers, like 3-4 layer of painters tape in the walls inside the case. Purpose of this is to reduce hollowness, in return reduces case ping/echo inside.
I have exact same shifter and I've added some sound dampening foam (idk exact one, it is used for cars usually) underneath the mechanism on the inside and on the inside walls, it is much more quiet and has more satisfying sound (for my preference). Like the content, thank you ❤️
How did you make it work in Assetto Corsa? Mine wont get detected Ingame but in Content Manager it works
@@risky4you855 Hey, sorry I cannot help there, I sold the shifter a month ago :( It should be fine if it is being detected in CM. However I remember that I had some issues with it not being working in game as well for the first time. Not sure what I did for it to work, hope you will figure it out
@@haiiry what do you have now
@@tijj nothing, unfortunately 😁 Had to sell, because I moved to a different country. I wouldn't change it, personally, to something else, little bit of modding and it could be on pair with much more expensive shifters, expect maybe fanater or more premium ones (tho I have only tried Logitech, Thrustmaster and the one from the video)
@@haiiry and you liked this one the best after modding? Nice definitely gonna consider getting it from like aliexpress for cheap when the time comes
This was very helpful, I’m looking to build a more serious race sim mainly for drifting and I’m not a fan of the Logitech shifter and higher end shifters and get expensive. This looks very upgradable too.
The only reason to use a Logitech shifter is because it came with a Logitech wheel but you wouldn't buy a Logitech wheel for drifting anyway. This one looks better than the Thrustmaster shifter. Not as good as Fanatec shifter but for the money it seems to be a solid choice.
I've had mine for over a year and it still works great. Mine came with a metal top plate.
This looks clean and would really fit my setup. I want one now.
I have this and have been useing it for a year. And absolutely no complaints. I have the 6 speed. But take the top plate off and cut a new one and you still can use it as a 7 speed as the extra switch is still there underneath. There is also a version that has a range which is nice for ATS/ETS.
I got a 7 speed and often misshift. And tbh you don't really need a 7 speed imo.
@@Mattes985 yeah I know. Just saying that for anyone that has ether and wants to convert it from a 6 to 7 or 7 to 6 plate that they could.
There both the same on the inside.
Cheers mate.
I've had this shifter for almost a year now... I shift it hard hard and have had no problems
I have one. I liked it until it fell apart on me. I had two problems:
-the mini USB that plugs into the arduino comes unplugged every now and again
-the screws that hold the bottom of the shifter to the side casing are cheap flimsy screws, so one snapped when I tried to remove it and 2 more snapped after about 7 months of use.
All the mechanisms still work, it's just the casing popped off. I have it held together with a bunch of duct tape. It'll do until I can get a nicer one, I suppose. Maybe I got unlucky.
Thanks for the insight! I haven’t had any problems with the USB and I used my own mounting bolts. I’ll definitely keep an eye out for how it progresses with use though.
Also, I’m thinking of giving away an H-pattern shifter so stay tuned for that 👀
regarding the mini usb connection, the one i have with me is hot-glued. I havent had any problems with screws as i mount them to my aluminum rig. The screws of the whole thing are just small allen head screws though, easily replaceable.
But mine isn't perfect, the shift mechanism isnt perfectly lined up, so it collides with the top plate when i shift to third and fourth. Just cheap product QC things.
Another tip would be dont get the ones with metal top plates, mine came with metal top and it was constantly grinding the shifter. until the extent that you can see flakes of metal around the top plate. Replaced the top plate with plastic ones and fixed the problem, also made the whole shifter whole lot quieter.
@@Steve93K mine was hotglued as well, but i suppose it was poorly done because it broke off. I don't mean the screws that hold the shifter to the rig, i mean the small allen head ones that hold it together. I agree about the metal plate on top, I'd probably replace it with the plastic one if I intended to keep it longer. My gears 2, 4, and 5 have bent switches so mine's a bit funky. I probably did just get a particularly bad one, but I'll just wait until i can get a nicer one to replace it.
@@diplomatofthesosbrigade931 ah yeap. To be honest I di wonder how long will mine hold up. There are hall sensor variants but I question the quality of the hall sensors themselves. Supposedly 'lifetime', but hall sensor usb handbrakes from china fail too...so yeah there's that.
Hey oc! I’m just getting into sim racing and I would love to have that Moza Wheel, I know there are a lot more people who need it more than me so good luck to everybody!
I've been tempted to get this for a replacement shifter for my g29 it seems really good for the price
How does this thing compare to the HSS shifter? Maybe you could make a video comparing them.
I’m loving this shifter. It delivers good quality while not breaking your wallet like the TH8A, or most other shifters on the market. Does this one have sequential shifting mode tho? I’m trying some rally games out, so figured having one should be nice.
Yes and no. You can order it with a piec e that you attach to the metal shifter stick itself that slots sinde what would be 3rd and 4th gear, preventing it from exiting those slots as well as not enabling it to move past the inner ball bearings. This makes it autocenter and only move slightly back and forth, giving you an effective sequential. It works really well with this simple piece installed.
Does it work with xbox one s
Dont recall if you have done a review on the SHH shifter. Its a h pattern and sequential shifter on one similar to the fanatec shifter. It cost about 140 us dollars shipped. Cones out of spain and has a bit of a wait list. If youre on a budget its definitely one of the best out there. It has a 3d printed exterior but the overall quality is their. Have had it for over a year and has worked great
Glad to hear it’s been working great for you!
I have one myself and enjoy it quite a bit. Here’s my review: th-cam.com/video/R1g_TUbALVA/w-d-xo.html
Planning on making a big video soon where I compare all of the shifters I own to one another. Stay tuned 👀
I ordered mine in July and I can’t wait for it to get here because I haven’t been able to drive any manual cars properly since I got rid of my G27 with the H shifter!!
It would be nice to see a rubber gasket around the shifter guide
Do you recommend this shifter over the shh shifter you reviewed before?
Bought the exact same one. Works okay but on assetto corsa it doesnt seem to detect the 7th gear and reverse not sure why.
What are my options on Ps5. I know the thurstmaster but are there any budget shifters for console?
If you can wait a bit, Banggood has the better version with hall sensors rather than micro switches for about the same price.
Do you have a link for that?
It sucks tbh. I end up returning it. shifting to 3rd and 4th gear sucked since the shaft is misaligned. You will hit the gates when shifting. I stuck with this and modded.
im enjoying myself watching you keep it up
Thanks for the review.
I just saw this video, is there a specific brand I need to look out for? I've seen multiple of the same shifter going for different prices online and kinda sketched out if I might be looking at a shotty quality one. Anyone could let me know, your help is appreciated.
there are so many different ones on amazon what is the name of the one in the video
does the shifter still work? im planning to buy one to use for long-term
its my favorite one easily. ill be buying another one to get a hold of the sequential shifter
What’s the best wheel base under 500
I love this shifter, i have one myself
I have similar shifter and i have been using it like one year now no problem
I have made some mods to make it quiet
I recomend that cheap china shifter👍👍👍
Kool i might have to purchase this for a back up shifter, although my th8a has been going strong for 4 year's, Nearly 2 k ingame ac hour's
Subed aswell 💯👍
I been wanting one wheel for almsost 4 years, because i am a gokart professional and citties that have karting centers are far away from my city, with sim racing wheel i will be able to practise at home because of school. Even if i dont win thanks for cheap setup tips that i can use.
I'm a little tired to play racing games in controller tbh, good video!
Congrats on 40k subs
Might have to pick one up
Can confirm its a great shifter. It has held up well and that noise is audible but isn't terrible. I find it very satisfying actually.
I found it to be very satisfying as well lol
you can actually mod it to reduce the noise significantly.
Love that wheel so cool what your doing with it. I know that whoever wins it will love it. Love the videos.
That moza wheel would be awesome so I can start my moza ecosystem!
Looks to be a good upgrade from the Logitech shifter
In my mind, the only problem with these cheap shifters is that the buttons are connected with a usb encoder (maybe only on mine that comes from AliExpress). So since I built my own DIY handbrake with a similar usb encoder (supporting 12 buttons and some joysticks), my computer detects my shifter with the name "usb controller" but also my handbrake with exactly the same name... So if I connect my handbrake button on the wrong input, I brake and the 6th gear is engaged at the same time... So I lost 8 inputs on my 2nd usb encoder and I can't make the button box I originally wanted.
Hello viewers :) I just bought Thrustmaster 300 RS gt and I would like to know whether I can use Logitech shifter with Thrustmaster? Thank you.
love this channel!
Please make a video comparing this to the SHH Shifter.
AFTER A YEAR AND A HALF OF BLINDNESS I SEE MUCH BETTER ALL I SEE NOW IS SIM RACING FOR MY F1 2O22 THAT CS WHEEL WILL BE MUCH APPRECIATED.
Hey OC, got a question. I’m looking for a new shifter since my Logitech shifter broke so would you recommend thrustmaster or fanatec, thanks!
If you’re only looking for either one of those, the Fanatec one is far superior. I got mine yesterday and have been enjoying it quite a bit.
Nice video i recently just found you but you are making really good videos
Glad you think so! More coming soon :)
Good stuff. Keep them coming!
Will do!
I will definitely upgrade to this at some point to replace my fisher price, I mean logitech shifter.
You’re setup looks sick!
Thank you! Video on it coming soon
I have this shifter and it's great. However mine has a toggle switch wired to it that I haven't figured out it's use any ideas?
Way late on reply, but the switch on the handle is for high/low range generally. Great for 4x4, or high/low in semi truck.
I would make good use of a wheel 😢🎉 nice video man keep it up always fun to watch
If you want something good and dirable look up for the SSH Shifter
This video comes in at the right time, i want to get me a new shifter. How is this one compared to the SHH Shifter?
I’m planning on making a big video where I compare a ton of shifters to one another. That being said, due to its metal casing, ease of access, and lower price, I reckon this could take the edge over the SHH.
@@OCRacing Such a video would be great! Cant wait for it.
Do you have a general idear of how long it probably will take until the release of the video?
I would get the SHH instead (i did 😉)
Nicer looking, quieter and also a very good sequential shifter
@@OCRacing can you give any update on when this video could release, as i want to buy a new shifter as well and would really like to watch the compairison first
i’m stuck on some cheap non force feedback wheel if i got the moza wheel it will change my sim racing life
Honestly this looks promising might have to upgrade from my Logitech shifter.
im very new to sim racing and on a tight budget too, i wanted to know if this works with any wheel or does it only work for the wheels it says in the aliexpress page, i noticed that its a usb shifter so im guessing it should work with anything
It's for PC only. So it'll work with any wheel that you want as long as they both plug into a PC.
I have that thing. I bought it for 40€ on Aliexpress and its fine so far.
I didn't find one with a clamp on Amazon ;(
i bought the same shifter, i would like to say its a very good shifter! feel sturdy
Good to know, thanks!
hey oc can you review the ailogs hand brake and shifter ive heard that there high cuality and one of the cheapest . Congratulations for reaching 40k subscribers next up half 100k .
I’ll definitely try to get my hands on it. It looks very nice
I recommend the simagic q1 or q1s if you can afford it. One of the best sequential shifters for the money. Aiologs shifter is definitely a close second
If you buy it with the sequential thing can you remove it and use it as a normal H-pattern?
Yeah you can. It's only a screw and a bolt.
I really hope I’ll win that rim, I’ll finally decorate my wall and dream of buying the wheelbase to improve my mediocre sim rig with this hanging trophy :D
That shifter was surprising to say the least!
I just got it too!
I'm all entered :) I would love having that wheel! I'm just starting out in my racing sim journey
I need that moza
Question does anyone have a mclaren gt fanatec V2 wheel if yes does your wheel have the fanatec logo on top mine doesn't sadly I had to use a sticker but I saw one of OC racings videos and it seems like the fanatec logo is stuck on the wheel with out a sticker since you could clearly still see the carbon fiber plastic aroud it. Just curious to know.
It’s a sticker! You peel off the plastic film on the top and it leaves only the letters
@@OCRacing Thanks man I was wondering what that weird white fanatec letters were for. Love the high quality vids keep it up : )
Love that weel
Does this shifter work with Beamng
I use this shifter it's great!
Crossing my fingers! Really looking into getting the Moza R9 here.
Keep in mind I’m only giving away the CS rim as a trial to see how much I need to pay in shipping etc. I do however plan on giving away a DD system later this year!
@@OCRacing Oh I understand. I've been wanting a racing setup for quite some time and if I can get my foot in the door by getting a wheel. That would be amazing. 😂
I just got a Moza R9, it did take a bit of tuning, but after it felt absolutely amazing. I would totally recommend it.
bought this one a week ago i love it
Good to know!
a great review!
Fingers crossed. Nice review.
Best of luck and thanks for watching! :)
Can you plug this shifter into the front PC usb ports?
Yes
man i would love to see the reviewon the new 6s sigma cockpit!
Sooner than you think!
hi ive got one today and tried to play assetto corsa and gears 1-6 work fine but the reverse gear cant be mapped because the computer recognises the shifter as a gamepad and the reverse is assigned as RT. any ideas how i can switch assigning it or fixing it?
Well that's annoying. If I buy this I'll be using it for AC also.
You might need to use Joy2Key as a workaround. It can pick up the controller inputs and relay a keyboard button to the game. A good way to test your Joy2Key setup is by trying to "type" with your controller in a text editor like notepad. Once you know that's working then set up those same keys in the game.
I wonder if there's a way to switch the shifter into DirectInput mode instead of XInput. I think DirectInput is more flexible, but not all games support that mode and I don't know if it would help in the case of AC.
@@yorgle11 na I fixed it my cm doesn't work as the install one but I added it to steam library and that's what caused the problem because I was on steam it registered as a controller because I had that setting on. If ur cm won't work properly with ur wheel and shifter from normal launch, add it to steam library and disable controller support in steam settings and everything including the shifter will work
Just got my new moza r9 i would like to have the cs wheel🤩
Entering the give away for the rim! Good luck to everyone.
Moza would be amazing!
I think the noise makes it better
The noise doesn't bother me at all, I'm interested in get one
So I can’t use this shifter on Xbox at all ??? I literally just bout it and the g923 you can only imagine my face when the wheel didn’t have a usb input 😢
U should do a three way comparison between this and the other 2 shifters at the price point
Coming sooner than you think!
So who won the steering wheel? I always see the giveaways but i never see who gets them....
This seems much better than the TH8A.
I really need asim setup
do you prefer this shifter or the SHH?
I’m seeing this shifter on Ebay for less than $40 now
I would really like to get this wheel, bc i im driving rally irl and i only have a key board to drive in rally games. It would help me practice
I’ve been sim racing for awhile and I’m looking into getting one of these but now I’m thinking maybe you can save me a few bucks 😂
😳
just ordered the r9 with the gs wheel, so a free cs wheel would complete my sim setup.
Best of luck :)
Great video
I would cry if I will get maza wheel. I have thrustmaster t150 but its broken so ye...
I usually see this products on sale in ebay. I was hesitating to buy for my old thrustmaster t150rs maybe they would not be compatible to each other
COME HAI FATTO AD ADDATARE CON IL TUO T150?
Santas coming, Wally....lol;l
On aliexpress it costs about $60
True, but you also run a 50% chance it won’t arrive lol 😆
At least from my experience…
@@OCRacing I got mine on ali express and it come pretty quick with no issues at all
i got it about 5 months ago and it still works like a charm
@@OCRacing it was originally sold on aliexpress and I also got mine from there
My logitech wheel just died I really want that moza wheel
