How bad is it? Got video to show this flex? Not quite sure if I'm thinking what u are thinking. Thanks. May be interested to get the playseat challenge

RM600+ for this stand. Not sure what brand is it also. Is it good though? Now surverying for racing stands. Need opinions


Interested to know too. Not buying yet as I only have a Logitech and if I upgrade it will be to a belt-driven Thrustmaster first, but keeping an eye on sim racing news and I have heard how good is this brand. Seems like they dont ship to Malaysia isnt it?

Way sturdier than those low end playseats that cost much more but of course this one doesnt come with a seat, it's just a rack.

But honestly, if just want to lepas stim, just mount it to a table. This is only useful when you play from a TV.

Yeah no shipping to Malaysia.
Nearest to us is Japan or Australia, if send for warranty need to send to Germany.
Maybe I'll buy thrustmaster instead.

If want direct drive, can consider simucube. Got supplier and is based in SG.

If im not mistaken, it's much better than fanatec. And most importantly, not a proprietary ecosystem... so you can technically mix and match pedals, gear shifters, dash and motion etc.

Thanks man, I heard of simicube but kinda out of budget for now.

can refer this video, link direct to the timestamp: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_lxcNdMdmU&t=278s

it flex up and down if u apply pressure, for the most part it's not a deal breaker, cuz most importantly it doesn't flex side to side, because when u drive, u turn the wheel, the wheel have force feedback, so you basically applying pressure from side to side, and it doesn't flex side to side, so that's ok.

what is the most budget entry racing wheel to start with ?

How about using those Ikea Poang armchair and DIY own table? Anyone in this thread uses this method?

What other options besides Logitech and Thrustmaster? Actually would like to try Fanatec DD in the future, see whats so great. Hope in the future we Malaysians can get to buy it also. Especially now seems like sim racing is becoming more popular

Any other good alternatives? How about use Ikea Poang armchair and DIY own wheel stand? But the DIY part is the hard part, later end up not correct then still have to get a proper wheel stand

Logitech G29

If DIY then anything is possible. can even use a half cut car dash board for the best feel lol.

Direct drive is a whole level of its own with 20N of force that is enough to break your wrist when you crash at 100% feedback. But most importantly the feedback is much quicker and stronger so you can really feel the grip level of each wheels way way better. However, fanatec is pretty over rated. There's a lot of much better and cheaper direct drive systems out there. But have to really consider getting the full set and solid aluminum anchored rack. the feedback is strong enough to flip an ikea table... that's why the entry cost to a direct drive can pretty much buy a car.

how about the rack??? any budget friendly one to suggest?

Most budget one is use your table. It's fine and works really well.

okay, thx for the suggestion

DIY is best if on budget

thx for the suggestion and the photo for me to refer

Have u started the project? Measurements maybe can google. There's one popular brand based in overseas which sells this kind of 80/20 cockpit, I think can get their schematics. And mind to share where to get such aluminium profile? Maybe not shopee/lazada la,maybe some shop/factory can direct see before buying, if u know any. Thanks. Can PM me as well

Anyone heard of the brand Sim-Lab? Anyone purchased their rigs before and ship it to Malaysia?

VR racing rig
Sharing my VR racing rig build comes with Butt kicker BK and some DIY Arduino 'Shake-It' system through SIMHUB program for maximum immersion. Have to use table fan to cool down the overheating Amplifier and Arduino UNO hardware. Have to constantly tighten the rig screws every week due to immense vibration too.
I'm using the rig to run PC sim: Assetto Corsa and Euro Truck simulator.

Wow, whole PC just to play racing games or just Euro Truck Simulator?

Yes, just for car racing and trucking sim.

Time to mod the brake pedal for a more hydraulic feel
