Wow that is a lot of weight isn't it? It handles it well?

@@GYGOtv I had to reinforce the flat base where the seat normally goes as it did bend a bit but that was from using that bloody app to test with me in it and I slid my finger on the pitch and it went way too fast up in to the air before my finger slipped and slammed me down again. I then bent it back and drilled lots of wholes to put the alu profile all the way across it and not had an issue since. The new yaw 3 should be even better too as more power than the standard yaw 2

@@MusicByNumbersUK Wow sounds like you put some work into it. I'd love to see what it looks like... if you don't mind please email me a photo or 2 to gygomail@gmail.com. I'm still learning all about the YAW stuff!

Hi, I am debating myself which buy between this yaw 3 or dof p3. I want to order it this week.I want it for racing, to feel the acceleration, braking, and of course very important the traction loss. Could you (anyone who owns thw yaw for racing) share with me your thoughts about yaw3 for racing? I have some doubts because that central table mount doesn’t seem sturdy enough for a direct drive wheel, and there is no clear way of mounting the gearshift neither. It seems to me that is been more focused for flight sim. Reallly please! Give me your opinion on this. I have seem a lot of good comments about dof reeality p3, but i am a yaw backer that at this moment can pay for a quick delivery and get it now . But really I have the doubt if for simracing maybe yaw3 is still less mature and no so good as the dof p3, which comes with a real frame to put the wheel, pedals and gearshift …Thank you very much for your help

Thanks TDub! I think the big question is if the increased pitch angle of the YAW is worth sacrificing the stability of the H3, and that is a big toss up right now. I can tell you, unless the YAW just amazes me, I can't see me trading off my H6 for it... I think you would give up too much just to get that extra pitch, but we will see.

Use a washing machine stand....works perfectly and will lift the footrest off the ground. Recommend one rated for 1700lbs

Ya we will see if I end up with a demo unit. I feel like it and the H3 might each have advantages but my gut feeling is the DOF Reality H6 is still going to give a much superior experience. Of course I'll keep an open mind but that is what my gut is telling me right now. Thanks for the comment!

I'm sure YawVR appreciates your patience for sure. Talking to Zsolt it sounded like things were ramping up so hope you get yours soon. I can't imagine waiting that long for something as cool as this. I know my H6 was a game changer for me and my simming experience. Hope it is the same for you!

I’m in the same boat, or plane lol! My backer number is in the 700s. Three years and still waiting is indeed a long time. I would imagine that some elderly backers may have passed away already. 😬

@@kennykanada Well I hope you stick around long enough to enjoy yours once you get it. It is like waiting for Star Citizen to get finished so I kinda understand :)

Thank you very much for your insight! Always good to hear from actual Yaw users vs. me who just spent under an hour with the unit. So I get the impression if you like that extra pitch back and full 360 movement, just plan do do a lot of customizing to get everything where you want it? Quick question, how does the unit "feel" when you use it? Does it feel stable or does it still feel kind of "arcadey" like a carnival ride? Every movement I felt was very jerky but I assume that can be tuned out with the software? Also, how much room did you give yourself for the full 360 motion? Thanks in advance for your answers... I love the idea of the YAW but not sure it is fully realized in practice.

@@GYGOtv The operation is very smooth, it will simulate the tracks on a roller coaster quite well. That may have been what you were feeling. The room required for the full 360 is not as much as you would think but honestly I rarely do a full 360 while using it, it tends to take away from immersion more than it gives. However I do not do helicopter sims and you can get the feeling of the rear of a vehicle slipping out with minimal movement. I've watched most of your videos and I am honestly kicking myself for not going with the 6DOF.

@@nickg2691 Well thanks for watching! Yep that is kind of where my thoughts are... that 360 Yaw seems to me to be the least important axis but yet it is the one they seem to promote a lot. I love my H6, and don't think I'd trade it for the Yaw... but that full back tilt was incredible!

@@GYGOtv Yeah, I think they are still figuring things out with the Yaw2. As a platform, it has potential but isn't there quite yet. If they make it to a V3 with additional platforms allowing 6DOF and improve its reliability it will be a top contender for sure.

How is the latency on that? I always get worried with wireless... it always seems to fail right as I'm coming in for a carrier landing or something equally as important.

Then why not used?......

@@GunPilot That was kind of my question too GunPilot... if it had it why didn't they show it?

​@@GYGOtv was the wifi good at the expo? If not that would be a reason not to use it.

@@KydDynoMyte_ Ours worked, but we were just hitting the website, not controlling things with it.

Hi Steveb7777, THANKS FOR THE SUB!!! And thank you for noticing our attempt at unbiased reviews and opinions. I pride myself on trying to be fair! Another example is my Quest 3 review ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oLxloteKl5bdYIk.html ) as I HATE Meta (see rant here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qapdfNdykpbDdYE.html ) but the Quest 3 deserves the praise it has received as what I think is the Best Value in VR currently. As for racing... you probably won't want to hear this but give up on the YAW and go with an H6... Ironic huh, but hear me out. For racing you really don't need the large negative pitch and unless you are planning on drifting (or driving badly a lot) the 360 spin really isn't a big deal either. What is a BIG DEAL, is the extra Surge and especially SWAY when you hit something on the side it REALLY feels like you have side swiped a solid object. The heave is amazing for feeling that road texture... and if you do Off Road, that HEAVE is perfect for jumps etc. SRS's Jeff Weaver and I discussed this a lot on one of my gaming livestreams if you want to hear a more in depth analysis... you can find that here (I've fast forwarded to the racing part). kzfaq.info/get/bejne/otmAlcWKqt-dZac.html So I hope this analysis will help make my case... Don't get me wrong, I think the YAW will be better than not having motion BUT if you want the best experience for motion while racing at an affordable price point, the H6 is the one for sure! Please let me know if you have any other questions and again thanks for watching... I hope you enjoy the channel.

@@GYGOtv Thanks for the reply! I'll have to wait and see what I spend more time doing, flight or racing sim. I'm not even sure yet. I basically gave up both after having a taste of motion with the Yaw2. I have to have motion. That said, I didn't expect I'd be waiting for years! If I end up doing flight sim more, I might decide the pitch really matters. Either way, I have a Yaw3 coming eventually. Unless they open up refunds and I go that route. There is the fact that I'd be my getting the Yaw3 at a reduced price, not factoring in the years I've waited! I did pay about $2,500 for the 3DOF pro and some only paid around $1,200 for a 2DOF (non-pro). Ballpark numbers. So far Yaw is saying it is probably not going to have a 2DOF Yaw3 option, and is going to give all remaining backers the same Yaw3 (3DOF) and hasn't figured out yet how to make it fair to backers who paid more.

Good solution... you have a Yaw2 or 3?

I've got mine on a carpet, but I guess I am not doing much of the drastic movements. I use it for simracing, and when I crash I usually quickly hit the menu button to stop being thrown around. It probably helps that I've got the Yaw 2 with the middle desk with two massive arms, and the Yaw module too which all add weight and keep it to its place (the Yaw 3 reduced the weight by something like 40% IIRC). But I admit that the GVGO footage shows the Yaw 3 moving all over the place so you want to have at least use a rubber mat. If you are flying C172 General Aviation kind of planes you don't have to worry, it's all far to smooth. Which actually let me go for simracing when I decided what to use it for, as I grew tired of refitting controls (and fitting both doesn't work with a steering wheel & yoke). But it's a fun device and I find myself using it quite frequently (and sim flight really has suffered as I miss the motion)

@@Axacuatl Thanks for the comment... Ya I can't fly anymore without motion... It just feels wrong now. As for sim racing, if you ever get the chance I would argue that nothing beats the DOF Reality H6 for that. That side sway when you hit a guardrail or another car is amazing and I LOVE the heave for feeling road textures and maybe when you catch some air :) Don't get me wrong, I'm sure the Yaw is great too but man H6 and racing is like a match made in heaven. Appreciate you watching.

Thanks for the question @DaManAbove, and welcome to this amazing world of motion!. I haven't tested the YAW enough to recommend it yet... but honestly from what you are telling me I think your best choice would be a DOF Reality H6 (which is what I own). It will be great in all simulators like American Truck Simulator and MSFS. If you want to see it in action on a roller coaster watch this kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jMpllKafqay2iX0.html I have a lot of videos on my channel with the H6, so feel free to look around and see what you find. I also have a discount code listed on my newest H6 videos (I can't put it here because the search algorithms will find it so I have to put it in the videos themselves). If you want to know why I recommend the H6 over other platforms, you can watch that here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pOCdhd13nL-1cnU.html and that video will give you an idea of other platforms that are available to buy out there if the DOF Reality just isn't your thing. Certainly if you have any other questions feel free to ask. As for the VR question, Yes on the Quest 3 and NO NO NO NO on the Quest 2. I have a video comparing all the entry level headsets here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pdZ0Zpip0Zu0p3U.html and specifically the Quest 3 here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oLxloteKl5bdYIk.html If you want to step up the VR a little, the new Pimax Crystal Light seems to be the best bang for the buck right now pimax.com/pages/crystal-light. If you choose that direction, I may have a discount code for the Pimax and I'll dig it out if you decide to buy one. So I think I've given you plenty to watch, again don't hesitate with any questions you might have. This is an amazing hobby and I'm glad you found our channel and I hope it helps. Let me know how it goes.

Get the yaw3 for roller coaster or truck sim, they’ll also develop the gravity platform.

@@johnmann7o2 I gotta lean toward the H6 for Truck Sim... the Sway is really awesome if you hit something on the side and you don't really need the extra Pitch for those. For roller coasters and I think Helicopters I agree the Yaw appears to fit that better.

Add 2000 and buy a 6DOF. You wont regret the extra money spent. It's the last rig you have to buy!

@@void1968able I certainly can't argue with that!!!!

Ya for Heli the Yaw 3 certainly looks like it should fit the bill. The only thing lacking IMO is the Heave. I can tell you the H6 is pretty awesome in a heli too, when you touch down you FEEL it. Thanks for the comment.

Maybe... I think you are sacrificing the stability so I might argue with you the DOF Reality H6 is the best design overall. Time will tell, thanks for the comment.

@@GYGOtv I hear you, I own a P6 and I’m happy with it. I meant to say aesthetic design. Sorry for the confusion.

@@hrbeta Absolutely agree with you there... just don't know if in practice that design will really work the way it looks like it should. Glad you are enjoying your P6... they are awesome aren't they!

If you have any questions, I'll do my best to answer. Thanks for watching.

I agree 100% EXCEPT for that backwards tilt... I'd like to experience it in the F/A-18! I can say for racing the DOF Reality H6 is the way to go for sure and nothing even comes close in my opinion. Thanks for watching.

Stay Tuned... should have it ready next week.

LOL, no serious flight simmer is going to be using a Quest 3 (don't get me wrong, I love mine) but everyone is going toward the Pimax Light it seems. So the HOTAS can all be done wireless? Please tell me more.

@@GYGOtv They were providing a VirtualHere solution. If you have a tethered headset anyway, you'll have to use the return function that constantly slowly returns to center origin.

@@KydDynoMyte_ Awesome, great to know that is a function... as I said, I this was my first time in the YAW so I appreciate all the info you veterans are providing here. Great Stuff!!!

​@@GYGOtv Serious flight simmers should be getting into mixed reality cockpits for the extra immersion it brings. Shame Varjo is the only one allowing passthrough camera access to be able to chroma key in just your hands, arms, controls, etc. instead of having to make a whole detailed simpit to crop in since Quest3 doesn't have that direct passthrough camera access.

@@KydDynoMyte_ I think the Somnium is going to do that too isn't it?

Thank you so much for watching! I have wanted to try the YAW for soooooo long, glad I finally got the chance.

I can tell you right now the DOF Reality H6 is AMAZING in Elite Dangerous, one of the best experiences you can have in the motion rig! Having the 3 extra motions of sway, surge and heave really add the the realism of flying those spaceships. I'd imagine Star Citizen will be similar. If you are interested, here is a link of my livestream so you can see the H6 in action... you don't have to watch it all, I'd say check out the asteroid part here kzfaq.infoXxapAZ3wyx0&t=10320s Hope you enjoy it.

O man, I really want to hear what you think of that comparison!!! which Actuator setup did you get? How many DOF is it?

Not sure... Probably would mount but wasn't super stable so probably some flex. Also didn't like the center pole on there. If I get one to try someday I'll have a better answer. Thanks for watching.

Thank you so much for your feedback! As I'm a total N00B to all things Yaw right now! Any insight from current Yaw users is invaluable to me and my community. So the weight is an issue then with this style of device?

it is a issue yes. to make it simpel check out my review on 2.0 wich everything tech sensors and seat framework got damaged realy bad. my second review i share my thoughts and 50hours of gameplay testing about 2.5 edition from a quality generell point of view and what i miss from the 2.5 and my thoughts about sacrifices they have done with yaw3 consider cutting down mainfoundation weight in almost half size wich again goes into maintaining momentum as you pointed out in your video.there aint no transdusors and smartplugs has been removed from this new yaw 3 edition.

@@antjones2281 Maybe but at least on the DOF the bars holding the wheel deck are to the side so there is a better chance you could get it to work IMO.

Yes you and I are thinking the same. I don't really care about the Yaw as much but that pitch back is incredible!

They had a racing frame option for the Yaw2. Many people make their own frame out of t-slot. They have smaller plates for the yaw2 and quit making the big desk. I am surprised to see it back. But I bet there will be a small plate for it available too.

Yes I'm getting a sense that balance is VERY important for these to work correctly. How much weight did you need to counter your HOTAS?

@@GYGOtv more than you think I have a yoke and combat pedals then the side plates for the warthog hotas with a custom Plate for the joystick In the middle with ext bar and I am on the more robust statue of a 50 plus year old so counter weight is as out 30kg

@@samgarlick9585 so that is about 65 pounds for those in the USA. So what happens to the unit if you don't counter weight it?

You will see the movement you state and will need to ramp the power up which could burn out the motor possibly. It also makes the movements smoother along with SMS software. I am keen to see the yaw 3

I think the YAW 2 had that didn't it? Anyone out there know for sure?

​@@GYGOtv the slip ring used to have AC power, Ethernet and USB going through it. The USB was not always reliable. I believe now just AC power is going through the slip ring. A user with a yaw3 was able to use PowerLine Ethernet adapters the other day to get his Yaw3 on the network as a test, but wifi should work fine for most people at home.

@@GYGOtv I am not sure but it's definitely a good idea

@@GYGOtv Yes, the Yaw2 has that. I guess they dropped it for Yaw3 for simplicity, plus I believe the slip ring was expensive and getting a reliable one that would work for a long time and be available in the future for parts was part of it.

@@marcusdamberger So what is the answer now if they nixed the ring?.. this raspberry pi wireless option I keep hearing about?

Ya I wouldn't use their app, I know SRS so well it would not be my best use of time to try and learn theirs.

​@@GYGOtv Meant their config app that was using the motion test section manually with sliders is very jarring. Their free motion software is something different and is very easy to use once you understand the difference between it and SRS/SimTools.

I agree with above statement. Moving the Yaw manually on the test app is like using boxing gloves to type on a keyboard.

@@antjones2281 I hear you on that... I've had to do that with mine in SRS... Hard to be smooth.

So how well does that connection work for your HOTAS? I've heard the wireless seems to drop in and out which can be a problem when you are controlling your aircraft with it.

Yep that is certainly an option! I don't know if you can say that the 1 Year Warranty means it will fail BECAUSE I don't think THEY even know. These units haven't been around long enough to get any data on durability, especially in the hands of consumers. Time will tell I guess, and thanks for the comment.

I think they only have ac power going through the slip ring now. Streamlined and got rid of a lot of the failure points. Wi-Fi is usually terrible at shows. Recently discovered after the show you can use power line network adapters to connect the Yaw3 to the network instead of using wifi if needed.

@@KydDynoMyte_ So I'm confused... can you or can you not hook your HOTAS to the YAW itself to keep the 360 motion usable?

@@GYGOtv Yes you should. At least you have been able to on the yaw2. I haven't heard of them taking away the Virtual Here solution. One of the Yaw3 testers mentioned 4 USB ports on the one side of the chair opposite side from the AC plug on top. The YawVR is very different than most other rigs. It has a pi in it and uses a network interface for the motion software to talk to it.

@@KydDynoMyte_ Thanks for the info. That certainly would make it more viable for using the 360!

Ya I doubt that will ever happen. I know DOF Reality has looked into it and Distributors want a lot of money to provide them, so the Motion Platforms would cost like 40% more than they do now. I guess the question is would you rather have it affordable or local for purchase? Thanks for the comment.

Well thank you and welcome to the wonderful world of Get Your Game On! I hope you enjoy our content and feel free to comment with any questions you might have. Thanks for the Sub!

Thanks for the question... IMO if you are racing buy the H6!!! it should be about the same price as the P3 but those extra degrees of motion are AMAZING for racing. Most people think the H6 is more for flight but let me tell you, the sway to the side when you side swipe a car or a guardrail really feels like you hit something. The heave for the little bumps on the track just feels real and then you have the surge for gearshifts etc. Jeff weaver and I discuss this here in our impromptu video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/otmAlcWKqt-dZac.html and if you want to see the H6 in action racing... here you go kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jN6ndriG37WlqXU.html. Really is a NO BRAINER on this again in my opinion. Don't forget our discount code which can be found in our DOF Videos.

Thanks for your quick response. Well, not so close in prices. I am in Europe, the p3 its 4.400 euros, the h6 is 6.800, both with transport and taxes according to dof web. I was looking at the p versions because this is something expensive I going to buy once in many years and to me spending a 15% more if the product is better build, precise and durable probably makes sense that extra cost. But yes, you are convincing to the h6 with the extra movements.Anyway, I am having a hard time to decide cause as a yaw backer for “only” 2k euros extranI could get the yaw3 .. i play in VR so I don’t know if the extra pitch and the yaw ranges of the yaw could make it a good bet for feeling more acceleration and traction loss and in curve g-forces. What do you think about that? The jarring stop and rudeness of the movements that you comment in your video could be worse for flight but best reactions for racimg? Edit: looking closely to dof reality web it seems that the "taxes" the show at the checkout page doesnt include neither VAT (21%) or customs arancel (2,5% I think), so they are not so competitvie now vs the yaw3 option

@@franciscojmunoz3938 Ahh ok... that is weird because they are usually the most affordable but obviously I don't live over there. It might be worth an email to them just to confirm the price and make sure the website isn't calculating wrong (it is a fairly new website update so there still could be some bugs they don't know about). Anyway, I can't really speak to the Yaw3 for racing, I just know it felt a lot more unstable and to me it might feel more like an arcade machine than a motion rig but again I have very limited time in it. If the Yaw 3 is only going to cost you 2k more it might be worth a try, but then again you could get an H3 for about that much and eventually upgrade. Tough call for sure but I can tell you I'd go H6 for racing... it just is that good IMO. Hope that helps.

@@GYGOtv thank so much for your comments. I’ll check with dof reality supoort the prices and taxes to be sure.

Ladt question, this time about dof reality.. for a casual user like me (max 15 h a week) do you think p6 extra cost over h6 worth it in terms of maybe been faster, more precise and durable?

Ya you can feel it for sure. I certainly don't have that same feeling in my DOF Reality H6 that is for sure.

I have no idea, I only got to try it at the show and don't actually have one. I think it is all driven by a PC so you hook the Quest 3 to the PC but don't know any specifics... sorry I don't have a better answer but thanks for watching.

Ya you can limit the rotation so probably about a 6x5 ft. space would work... of course that takes away one of the key features of the Yaw when you do that so I get what you mean. thanks for the comment.

I have no idea, I only had 30 min with it and only tried the demos they offered. If I get one to test out I'll have more time to try stuff like that so stay tuned.

So how long until you started having the durability issues in the Yaw? Do you know if that is one of the improvements they made to the YAW 3?

@@GYGOtv YawVR testing the Yaw 3, and in the Test Did not hold. See says the Yaw3 need more Bearings. but i have this not see, YawVR talked about it after the test. And the Yaw3 came later. But i think you need only a good Adhesive for the Plastik-Cap.

Now that the PSVR2 can hook to a computer I'm sure you could... I doubt it would work off the PS5 however, I think it needs to be driven by a PC. But that is just a guess as I don't actually have one and used it for less than an hour. I'm sure other owners can probably give you better info. Sorry.

@@samgarlick9585 I can tell you the Heave in the H6 and in Helicopters is AMAZING! You feel it when the skids hit too hard! Hope you get that same feeling with the Heave module on the Yaw!

I don't plan to get one anytime soon. I would rather the Kickstart Backers get them before all of the rest of us did. They have been very patient from what I understand.

I don't think they can afford to give one out to everyone making a game. You can use their YawVR emulator to test telemetry output well enough. It is not on the game dev to support the specific chair and make it feel good. The user looses all ability to tune to their liking then.

Ya I hear that is has been an ongoing issue for awhile now right? Any idea where they are as far as fulfillment number for backers?

@@GYGOtv The latest info is they have a backlog of around 800 kickstarter units to fulfill

I think it will be 1.5 years more on the long estimate. Probably closer to a year. I do have full faith that they will deliver. I met Zsolt in 2021 at FSE San Diego, I was standing there as they got the very first demo unit operational and was one of the very first handful of Americans to try the Yaw2. I could see their passion and dedication, they have worked tirelessly for years on this project. I know they will conquer their adversities and turn this into a successful enterprise. It's really a fantastic product. The Yaw2 demo itself absolutely blew me away, though it made it more difficult to wait all this time! I did the roller coaster demo and Xplane 11. My brain was fairly convinced I was flying a real plane, even with the low fps and frame drops that were occurring with the laptop / wireless setup to the Quest 2 headset they were using. And pulling back that throttle and having it lay you almost flat, that right there is absolutely incredible. I hope they do make a 6DOF someday that can do that... but for now I'd settle for actually getting my unit... hopefully they do release the Heave platform as well.

@@stevetb7777 Yes I obviously met Zsolt too and you can feel his dedication for sure. He told me that if the company was going to go out of business... they would have last year. Now they are on better financial footing and with the new YAW 3 being more cost effective to produce they feel they have rounded the corner. I agree with you so much on that backward pitch, it was amazing for sure. My only advice if you are tired of waiting is to get yourself a DOF Reality H2 to hold you over and then you can sell it once you get your YAW. I know I couldn't go without motion now that I've had it and I can't imagine how hard it has been for all the Yaw Backers to still be waiting. I hope the fulfillment comes sooner than you all expect.

Maybe you don't know, but the Yaw2 is basically discontinued, all the companies time, money and development effort is now directed to the Yaw 3.

@@davewatson2124 Gday Dave.....gotta agree with you, if it walks like a duck ,looks like a duck and quacks like a duck then its probably a duck.....sorry if there was any confusion, what I meant was that they "say" that kickstarters who have not received their rigs as yet after all this time will eventually get a Yaw 3 (as long as they pay more money).....once they start rolling the Yaw3 out the door, was supposed to be January of this year, no more yaw 2s

I'm "harping" on it because I still get asked on a regular basis what my thoughts are on it by my viewers. Yes I asked about that situation and if you watch the end I mention it but I'm happy to explain it more to you here. Keep in mind, I do NOT work for YAW and I was only able to spend a little time with Zsolt but from talking to him, this is my understanding. Basically the Yaw 2 ended up being an inefficient and costly design that was running into durability problems and almost ran the company out of business trying to fulfill the kickstarter orders. YawVR had to pivot last year not only to stay in business but also redesign the unit to be more cost effective and durable... hence now you have the Yaw 3. I'm fully aware of the kickstarter situation and I can TOTALLY understand how frustrating that must be... but if YawVR went out of business then No Kickstarter would be getting anything. At least this way YawVR has the potential to deliver on what they promised. Is it a "scam"? Well you'll have to define what you mean by scam for me to answer that. My definition of a Scam is an intentional scheme to steal money from victims, so to me no it is not a scam because I can see YawVR is actively trying to do what they say. Are they using questionable business practices... I'll leave that up to people who know more about the situation than I do debate that. Hope that answers your question, I'm sure you aren't the only one that wondered about that so thanks for the question.

That is a heck of a deal. There is no way my Back would be able to support me in that thing. It sucks getting old!

@GYGOtv I understand that completely. I am 44 going to turn 45 this october. I definitely feel the difference. I actually added some of those seat cushions for both my bottom and back. It makes a big difference. I enjoy playing in Virtual Reality, wearing my Woojer Vest 3, and sitting in this motion simulator using the Hotas. I just recently purchased that Pimax Crystal Light HMD. It has the best visuals I have ever seen.

@@WOojerVest3andQuest3onMe Ahhh you are starting down the path and it won't be long until you are in a DOF Reality H6!!! I can see it now! It is an amazing time for us enthusiasts. VR and Motion in my own home, who would have thunk it 20 years ago! Do you like the Woojer over a B Haptic?

@GYGOtv I haven't tried the bhaptics vest. I just bought the Woojer Vest because it works with everything. Plus, it was on sale. I am a sucker for deals. I actually almost bought one of those DOF rigs. But, I changed my mind. $3k + is way more than I want to invest.

@@WOojerVest3andQuest3onMe Ya Haptic Vest is on my future acquisition list, I'll have to research what the best would be. I totally understand the hesitation on the DOF Reality Rig, mine was over $5k and I had no idea if I'd like it or not... I can honestly tell you it was one of the best things I've ever purchased and I'm so happy I did it. Keep an eye out, maybe a sale will get you into one someday.
