Be interesting to see this compared to the GT Omega Titan as that has a full seat with slide and recline mechanisms.

I bought one Playseat Trophy two weeks ago and I absolutely love it! I'm a big person and it is very comfortable and sturdy. It is expensive but it might be your best opinion if you want to use it with a TV or a monitor you already have. You can put it aside easily and put in place when you want. It's a massive step ahead from the Playseat Challenge and it's very good looking, it surely stands out!

Hi. I have challenge as I need to stow in my office, but use on my ps5 and 65inch living room to. Sounds like it’s not root heavy? I am running the ps5 did elite. I’m thinking they’re is prob small trolley wheels that will clamp around the verticals pedal tubes so can roll it when tilted up on its end. Can the seat fold forward when needed. I would want to stow it on its end against wall in my office when not using

@SAUVAGEGAMING Жыл бұрын

@@TomTheSurgen1 Hi. The cockpit is very light on the seat and much heavier on the front. I guess you can install the wheels on the back but in the front will be a difficult fit because of the curve of the tubes. The easiest way is to drill some wholes on the tubes and screw the wheels. The seat doesn't fold and due to its weight distribution it's a lot easier if you store it vertically with the seat up, you can put it in that position with one hand. I hope I understood your question and that my answer is helpful.

I've just got it and reviewed my Playseat Trophy in red that I got on a sale 2 weeks ago and so far so good! In this version the ActiFit materials look a tiny bit different in the type of the material used. Using a DD1 and V3 with BPK on mine. hopefully there will be people in the States doing 3rd party shifter mounting. TBH with a semi-decent workshop and a good hardware store nearby it's easy to solve.

Sturdy AF!!! That is my 3 word review. I bought this and mounted the 11NM Logitech DD Pro wheel and pedals to it....I could not be happier. I love this set up. And it is so light that I can push it around to move it in my apartment. That's right, this can be done in an apartment. ROCK solid...no wiggle, all rock solid. My vote 100%, this seat rocks balls off! Not to mention, one of the most comfortable seats I have in my house for sure. It's like a cradle.

As for the pro wheel and pedals, I am also happy with them. While I do have a gaming PC, I mainly game on console, so that was the deciding factor for me. Hopefully Logitech will produce more wheels in the near future, along with a pro shifter and handbrake.

@maxmoser412 Жыл бұрын

It's the lightest, strongest, most comfortable cockpit available, and it can handle pretty much any DD wheel or pedals you throw at it. If light and strong is what you need, it's actually a great value. If you need to be able to move your rig around or store it out of the way, this is probably the best option. You can literally hang it on the wall if you need extra floorspace. Show me another real DD compatible rig with that kind of flexibility. Plus, FREE shipping, usually another $100-250 with many other options. And granted you don't get a real bucket seat, but most other rigs don't come with a seat and add another $300-500. So tell me again how this is more expensive and not worth it.
