Grind never stops 🤑
You didnt have to do homeboy like that 😂
퇴근을 세시에 하노 ㅁㅊ
This wheel is a must for me as i am disabled. Thank you! Gonna def be tough for me to adapt to but still.
If I ever get a csl dd this is probably the wheel im gonna combo with it, there's lots of buttons and dials so it's super adaptable to any kind of sim I'd want to play
I would recommend! The only problem is that it wont allow you to play rally or drift games 😅
@@OCRacing good point, I do enjoy dirt rally 😅
i would get the moza R9 instead. you can buy a quickrelease with a 6 x 70mm patern and use any wheel
if you care about money/value, I really wouldn't recommend fanatec now.
there are many alternatives now, with stronger bases, better wheel and easier/cheaper shipping.
The main problem is just the base costs $600 now, instead of the original advertised $350.
@@user-wq9mw2xz3j ah fuck, I was still operating under the assumption of that 350 price tag 😩
After one year and two months (just outside of warranty), my McLaren wheel failed. One of the magnets seated itself into the housing and will not release, so the shifter is dead. I reached out to Fanatic over a week ago with a couple of emails to support, and no response :). Really liked this wheel, but I fear I will have to get a replacement. **** (UPDATE). I did finally get a response from Fanatec (took 16 days) - they asked me to send them a video of the problem, then promptly gave me a RMA to return it to them for repair or replacement. Will see how long that takes, but pleased they finally responded.
Yeah fanatec client support is extremely slow, but as long as you get your replacement, if i were you, i'd be happy enough.
I have a DD1 and use it on PC. I have the Formula v2, the Podium Porsche and this with the QR1. This McLaren is a great wheel for GT3. I have replaced the shifter with improved aftermarket’s from SimMakerz and drive with gloves. Brilliant wheel.
I can't afford any of these wheels,
Just watching because of the pure quality of your videos
Means a lot :) hope you enjoyed!
Same... crying in thrustmaster kkkk
@@MultiSphinix same....got a t150 Pro for 60 bucks somehow
@@MultiSphinix crying with Logitech g29. But if being honest, it’s my first wheel and I have a decent cockpit and I actually really enjoy it, a lot. Yes, it’s low end but because I’ve only used controller, it’s way way way better. Although, I do want and will upgrade to thrustmaster and Fanatec. I’ll probably go thrustmaster at end of year. Servo wheel base load cell pedal and wheel and if Fanatec have stock next year, I’ll go with them. But I’m not simply moving on, I just want a collection of wheels and sim gear in general. Main reason for upgrade would be smoother wheel motion and of course the gear is much higher quality and looks a lot nicer and more immersive. When I’m in my g29 I feel great. I only feel less happy when I watch these types of videos 😭
@@panzerbead2977 brb going to go sob next to my $90 thrustmaster t80 😭
I've had mine for a year. I would absolutely recommend it! Very good wheel for a resonable price which comes with many buttons. 9/10
I bought this wheel and it’s a good wheel but I use the DD pro wheel when playing GT7. It’s just a easier wheel to use and feels more comfortable. I also bought the metal quick release which I definitely recommend. The plastic creaking was awful
Okay 1 year later how is your GT3 still ? is it working okay ?
I just ordered it 10 mins. Ago along with the button and sticker set. With this and Clubsport RS wheel and my CSL DD 5nm i am pretty much covered for any type of driving 😎
Really helpful buying advice, cheers mate
I have added that wheel to my Setup a long time ago. I am really pleased with it. I also have the entry level F1 style wheel and compared to the GT3 wheel it does not feel the same way when driving GT3 Cars. The GT3 wheel just fits that specific job sooo well. It just gives a more realistic feeling when turning in. That said I find it to be horrible for any other car that is not a GT Racing Car.
When considering th price i would say it is a must have for every Fanatec user that is driving GT3 Cars
So far it's been working quite well for me on the CSL DD. Just the grips are a bit too thin for my liking and I don't even have big hands. But I got used to those pretty quickly
It’s amazing…….. however the paddles are terrible, but I swapped them out for the SimMakerZ upgrade kit. I use this wheel all the time.
Thanks OC you helped me out in the past!
Glad to hear! Thanks for watching :)
YES I remember talking to u about this on insta 🤩
Haha yes! I’ve been testing it out for a long while now 😅
Try some tennis racket handle grip tape. Works great
I was a bit in doubt when starting with Fanatec ecosysteem, between this and the V2.5 formula wheel, but i am happy with the V2.5 formula wheel, enough buttons and included the metal QR and magnetic shifters. I use it together with the DD Pro
I was thinking the same, similar price if consider the QR1 meta
I want this wheel so bad 😩😩😩😭😭😭. I finally forked out the money for a csl dd, 8 nm boost kit, gt lite cockpit, and load cell pedal. I ended up getting the wrc wheel because it was cheap and I knew I could use it for more cars and I literally had no money left afterwards lol... this thing looks so fucking amazing though and I really wish I could have afforded it as well lol.
Damn, very good price for a fanatec product, video was amazing, as always
Thanks! It was actually filmed on a new camera 👀
I'm not a big fan of the rocker paddles nor the plastic dual clutch paddles. I suppose if money is tight and you want dual clutch, it's probably the only option in that price range for a GT/open wheel type rim. But, if you can afford it, I'd go with a Formula V2.5. I have one right now and it is the only rim I use as of late. The APM's are also a nice addition, again, if you can afford it. Just seems like the Mclaren rim has too much plastic.
i have the wheel and its really good for the price the quality is great. One thing is kind of annoying its really big but it is really good for the price
I bought this at the start of the year and absolutely worth it’s weight in gold
Just so everyone knows, this wheel doesn’t allow to map PS4/5 L2/R2 buttons. You need your controller still if you need those buttons.
Always nice to see a lubricated shaft, essential IMO.
talking about the wheel like it’s some typa… nvm
I’ve got this with a csl dd 8nm it’s is really good but unfortunately not all the buttons are programmable with the Xbox series x. That’s not the wheels fault but this is very annoying.
If I focus only on Fanatec wheels... Formula is too small for my hands. McLaren V2 300mm is the minimum for me. One hand shifting is very very useful to me, especially in (longer) online races. Magnetic shifters are so much better and you can buy them for this wheel from some modding company. If only I could achieve one hand shifting with Ascher or CubeControls wheels. When you're 40, have a family, not much free time, you need one hand for various things that might happen so you wouldn't ruin your race.
How does it compare to the clubsport f1 esports v2, that comes with the QR1. I think it’s 60usd more
is it ok to use this for drifting and rallying? if its not too bad i'll just go for this one since i'll mostly be playing f1 iracing and acc
Didn't mention the not so quick release screw also qr comes free when buying bundles
Its not only any good its the best imo with the best bang for buck then anything out there
helpful thanks
Can't use that wheel wothout gloves, as you said it gets quite slippery with sweaty hands and appearantly I sweat like a pig when I'm tryharding
I have used this wheel a lot and I completely understand its a budget wheel but man i hate this rim the shifters feel incredibly muted and the plastic starts to creak after a while and just overall it feels so bulky, the buttons also do not feel great but again i understand this is a budget wheel
OC IM FINALLY NEGATIVE FROM COVID NOW I CAN SIM RACE
LETS GOOOOOO
All i did was sim race with covid lol why did you slack off?
Good wheel but V2.5 with Advanced Paddle is a lot better. Smaller rim is not problem.
Can you please make a review on the csl bmw wheel? (the cheapest fanatec wheel)
I'll see what I can do.
The cheapest now is the $130 bmw wheel I think, great review but can you do a review of that one too?
Forgot about that one! Ill see what I can do 👀
Yeah thats the one i got for being the cheapest
@@OCRacing I am really interested in that wheel as well 👀
The csl bmw and csl elite wrc are basically the same wheel (bmw has rubber grip and is for PS, wrc has alcantara grip and is for Xbox/PS), both are a revision of the old csl p1 wheel with the new QR. A basic wheel that's good quality and does the job.
@@craigbarber3225 yeah that's true, not much of a point then
does the well come with the qr1 lite in the box or do i have to click the qr1 lite for 0€ then i buy it
can we play F1 2022 just with mclaren wheel and csl dd base....... I mean do we really need padels to just play f1 game?
Good wheel for $200, feels good looks good but to me it was just a bit too plastic. After some use it got a little creaky and cheap feeling. Ended up going with a Turn Racing R305 and a Fanatic Unversal Hub V2. More $$ but way way nicer for the longer haul. Sold the McLaren straight away.
I'm going for the F1 V2.5 for my GT DD pro wheel replacement. I'll use the GT wheel for rally and the F1 for GT3/4 and F1.
@@naterod My Formula 2.5 has been collecting dust since I got the R305. What a nice wheel.
I got this wheel the day it came out haha, been using it ever since. It's a great wheel!
Hey oc racing what monitor do you use for sim racing it looks good
Generic 60hz, 1080p, 24” monitors 🤠
@@OCRacing thanks very much
@@RuthlessTjay maybe one day I’ll upgrade to 144hz… 👀
@@OCRacing I'll be looking forward to seeing that
Tennis or Badminton grip tape. Or kinesio tape.
Can you review about pxn v10
Trying to make it happen! Stay tuned 👀
Give it to me I want it now good vid oc!
😳
The buttons are extremely clicky and satisfying in my experience with it
Interesting
@@OCRacing not quite the same quality as the formula v2 tho I’ll admit
Is there a way to get leather grips?
Does the csl dd for PlayStation work with this wheel I’ve been trying to find out for ages?
Yes, yes it does. In fact, I was using the GT DD Pro this whole video
@@OCRacing oh ok thank you a lot 👍🏼
Can buy gt3 wheel and it work with different fanetec wheel bases ?
Can you take the Xbox buttons on and off?
Good rim but doesn't work properly with f1 games doesn't have button 7 and 8 So you won't be able to navigate some menus without using keyboard
Is the base of the thrustmaster xbox leather edition wheel removable from the base and if so is it compatible with sf1000 f1 wheel
Do you mean the TX leather edition wheel? If so, that one does support swappable wheels which means it will work with the SF1000 rim.
Yes that's the one thank you very much
Also do you think the playseat challenge is a good sim racing seat
I think it's a good video review idea
@@finndohertyforbes9000 no the playseatchallange is shit. i had one before i switched to a simlab rig. its really unstabble, i used it with a t300
Hi, i know im late to this video but i have an important question. i am 6 feet 2 and my hands are unusally large and i am concerned my hands wont fit. what do you think?
I don’t think you’ll have a problem honestly…
Too late, been over an hour since the video was posted, so you deserve no answer.
Nah but the wheel is basically the width of as most other fanatec wheels. It's not small. Only that you'll have to press the shifter with one or two fingers, but thats because it's got 4 paddles
Very nice reviev, but this is not the cheapest one
Why can't Thrustmaster do a wheel like this? 30 cm wide, GT style, clutch paddle on the back, cheap.
Does it come with the pedals and wheelbase
No altough there is a ReadyToRace bundle now that does come with all three.
RIP iphone, but great video anyway!
Thank you! The iPhone will be remembered 🥲
Keyboards with over 100 quality keys can be had for less than this, there’s no reason they couldn’t have a couple quality buttons at this price. The cost difference is pennies and there’s no justification for it or you not calling them out for it
Isn't the CSL BMW wheel cheaper?
also enjoy algorithm points
Yes, I think the CSL BMW wheel retails for about $60 less? Totally missed that lol.
Thanks for the algorithm points 🤝
@@OCRacing I'd like to see a review on the BMW wheel maybe, if its not too much of a compromise
also np🤝
That. Why we wear gloves
the new moza cs looks a lot better. its only 50 usd more and has rev lights and a metal qr.
Do you mean the Moza Racing GS? That costs $500 which is $300 more than this one.
@@OCRacing no the CS wheel. you can olny see it on the chinese website
@@melvinbille889 what’s the Chinese website?
Can confirm, there is cheaper wheel and pedels too. But for some reason only on visible when you switch to chinese in their website
@@OCRacing the rim costs more, but base is cheaper and has more torque.
but there are new cheaper moza rims coming out, can also get cheaper if import from china (a small hassle tho, ofc not everyone wants to do that)
God 🤘👍👍👍👍👍
Those are a lot of emojis 😅
Short version : YES ...... if only fanatec has a Playstation Equivalent of this wheelrim for the same price point (pain in the ass really) XD
Yup… that’s unfortunate 🥲
It works on PlayStation I use it every day
all wheel rims work on playstation if I'm not wrong. Just need a playstation compatible base
ahhhhh ok ok .... so it should work with a DD PRO (just tried the thing on xbox and it works with that configuration)
Which ones are the wheel bases best 3 ?
"budduns" lol
Who’s winning the Miami GP?? 👇
Leclerc 1st, Russel 2nd, Hamilton 3rd
Verstappen will retire because of his steering issues and brake issues
verstappen
Verstappen the 🐐
Mick Schumacher
1:39 Just wear gloves
Nothing Fanatec is any good. Fanatec sent it to him so of course it has to be the best then and nothing wrong with it.
Where did you get that FANATEC sticker that you have on top?
Aluminium
damn I hate living in a third world country. This wheel almost costs the same as a mid-high range gaming laptop -_-
I have the McLaren GT3 V1 and I absolutely love it. Here's some reasons
1. It's cheap, when I bought it a few years ago, it was under $200 with the metal QR1. Fanatecs cheapest wheel at the time.
2. It's a full scale replica of the actual McLaren GT3 racecar! In VR it's insanely trippy
3. Rubber grips are great! They are more durable than alcantara and they feel really good with gloves on
4. Paddle shifters feel really good. I used to work at a performance shop and have driven a few performance street cars (GTR, 458, 650s) and these paddles feel very similar. Way better than the Fanatec magnetic paddles imo.
2nd cheapest wheel
These wheels are rubbish. If you have owned one for a few months of use look closely behind the wheel where the shifter pivot point is for cracking. Mine has been replaced by Fanatec under warranty due to a design fault which they have admitted to in writing and the replacement has cracked the same way. If you are thinking of Fanatec DONT. Look elsewhere. It’s not just poor quality but very bad after sales service and warranty.
it's not the cheapest
Oops

no, Formula 2.5 with leather for me, not this crap
