Part of your issue with the "Notch" while passing center, is due to you going from a profile with 900° in Alpha Manager, to one with 1080° without re-calibrating the wheel in game. This will cause Linearity issues and can create a "Notch". This notchy feeling you experienced is only present in iRacing, no other game has this. This is due to the inferior 60hz signal coming from the game which needs a lot of Interpolation/Smoothing. This is also why this issue isn't present when using iRFFB. Every other game is smooth as silk, the hardware has no notches whatsoever. This is an iRacing issue in itself, which is why users tend to use iRFFB to clean things up and fill in the missing gaps. Anyway, Thanks for the Review, your Hardware section is great as always.

It's nice to see DD wheels are coming down in price and advancing simracing technology. Even though I think belt driven wheelbases still have their place, but they need to be priced lower (~200-350 EUR). Low entry DD wheels 500-700 - which is already happening. And then the sky is the limit. I have my personal grievances with Fanatec (the firm) and their DD, I think 0.5DD is their way to get you hooked into their ecosystem. But anyhow, it's a good entry wheel for those who have tried simracing with lower tier wheel and fell in love with the hobby. SiMagic when it first came on my radar, I was excited to see more competition in DD space. And they continue to deliver. I love this channel. Smooth voice of Barry is almost ASMR brain therapy.

So what I've taken out from this is that it's somewhat a DIY base where you have to spend time and really know how to set it up properly. Not everyone KNOWS how it's supposed to feel. This is the problem I have with many wheels, I do not want to mess with settings and learn what each and every one of them do, just make a DD base that is setup correctly from factory that gives you a realistic experience. Not everyone is a racecar driver that wants to practice at home and knows how a real racecar should feel like lol :)
@michael111 ай бұрын
It's subjective. Realistic isn't relevant either because the whole point of FFB is giving you information that you don't get sitting in a race car but you need playing a sim because you're not in a real car on a track. Note, exactly the same thing happens for any other wheel it's not a feature of DD. You'll note that once a wheel has a reasonable user base there'll be plenty of people sharing settings (in the same way there are plenty of custom ffb profiles for the games)

@@T3KNOSIS EDIT: WEBSITE NOW UPDATED TO REFLECT THAT THE GT1-R WHEEL IS INDEED INCLUDED! Original post: 1) The picture is of the Alpha Mini DD only; there is no GT1-R picture. 2) At the ALPHA page (not Mini) the description clearly states: "SIMAGIC ALPHA + GT1-R STEERING WHEEL" and the SKU reads: "SIMAGIC_ALPHA_GT1SR". With the Alpha Mini it only states: "SIMAGIC ALPHA MINI - 1 Yr Warranty" and the SKU reads: "ALPHA_MINI". Someone REALLY needs to call them and find out if the WHEEL is indeed included or NOT!

@@T3KNOSIS Aye, thanks T3KNOSIS. As skeptical as I was, I had already placed the order anyways! 😁 (Shipping was U$210.00 to USA, FWIW)

Anyone know what bolt pattern the hub of the mini is? Could I take the wireless adapter off and just bolt on a 6x70mm wheel?

I've made an appointment with my local retailer to test this out (technically I've already decided I want to buy it). Is there a handy list of what each setting does in the app? I cancelled my pre-order for the CSL-DD. Shipping it in from Australia is going to add a few more hundred dollars in delivery and taxes, which destroys the whole value proposition. And I shudder at the thought of getting after sales support. With a Simagic local retailer, it's an easy choice for me.

I think they are priced too high now. The introductory price should have been the forever price for 10nm.

could one bult a wheel straight into that thing or is the QR a must?

I realize that it would not have buttons and lights and all that jazz. Idc about that, I just want a clean 3rd party wheel w/o bells and whistles.

Is it compatible with other pedals? Like Moza or Fanatec? As Simagic pedals start from $500
@geologik7500 Жыл бұрын
On PC you don't connect through your wheel base. You will use USB to directly attach your pedals which means you can use any pedals you like

Simagic much better quality, feel like top premium. Moza feel cheap.
