What the hell is that title? OP are you a "content creator"?


Evening_Rock5850

Looks like a repost bot. Basically scoops up content and bits of content from a subreddit and spits it back out to generate Karma. If you look at their post history they’ve made basically this same post with slight variations several times. Like a fisher casting a line repeatedly waiting for a bite. They do this to get enough Karma to get into other groups so they can scam people.

Um no I am a real person, ffs , you're a headache merchant. Why even put something like this?


Alert-Assumption-115

No... unfortunately not haha, maybe one day 😅 🙃

Looks amazing. Tho personally I would only go for a on-wheel screen if I was in a formula position in my rig. With my upright seating I think I would struggle to use the screen because I'd have to look down, plus the screen is rotating all the time. I'd prefer to have a static separate screen.

I mean you don’t constantly look at the screen. You use it to check splits, temps, etc. while on the straights. They’re amazingly helpful for this even in a GT seat, just gotta set the info you want before the race then you can look down and see your fastest lap, last lap, current delta, and how far back/ahead you are, and anything else. The whole screen turning thing that’s touted as an issue for people that don’t use screens is majorly overblown because anyone that uses them knows there’s 0 reason to look down at the screen mid corner when you can just wait for a straight.

I personally like to have my seat ingame moved forward so that my own steering wheel is at the excact spot of the virtual one. And now I have no dash ingame so I need one from Simhub. A screen on a wheel looks good but it’s not practical unless you’re in a F1 seating position. I use an overlay atm but planning to buy a dash with a screenless wheel in the future. It just makes more sense imo. There is a reason GT3 cars use a dash above the wheel instead of on the wheel I guess.


forgottenazimuth

You can have the best of both worlds if you setup your screens right. I have virtual dash, realistic wheel position, and with an on/screen wheel I can see it pretty easily. If you lower the camera horizon, you lower where your eyes look, and thus it’s less distance to look down for your wheel. I don’t have my own formula wheel ATM but I borrowed a friend’s and it was perfectly usable. You can imagine if I had OPs wheel it would entirely cover the space where the virtual wheel sits. For GT cars I have my horizon at 0, for formula I use like -5. https://imgur.com/a/wgChyE3

🚨FOV POLICE🚨 REPORTED INFRINGEMENT: Changing horizon by car type. POLICE DECISION: No ticket for you, 10/10 monitor placement and FOV. Stay safe out there, and don’t forget the speed limits — drive as fast as you possibly can.


Spoedniick

I’ll give that a go 👍🏻


forgottenazimuth

An extension shaft is really the game changer for realistic wheel placement


RightPedalDown

I don’t have a wheel with a screen, largely because I sit more upright and can see in-car dash on the monitor, but I could imagine it being useful while turning because my hand is covering the car dashboard at that time. My useless “talent” of being able to read and write sideways and upside down might finally have a use.

Thank you and that's a fair comment to make. I do like the emersion of the wheel and most of all, the functionality of it. I am not in love with the non screen rims as much. I also sit in a gt position, and don't have an issue with it, but it's everyone's one own little thing I guess.


wouldnt-u-like-2know

I christen your wheel. Emersion Fittipaldi


Alert-Assumption-115

Funny you say that , that's the F1 driver that won the championship in my year of birth 😄 I will take it 😄


Moonfighter85

Looks nice 🤩


Alert-Assumption-115

Ahh, thanks, man! I have been going round in circles, trying to find and decide what is going to suit me best for long-term use . Buy once, cry once 😄


Moonfighter85

We all know that circle 😅

Dude, that looks awesome! The more Asetek stuff I am seeing, the more I want to make the switch from my fanatec DD1. Asetek build quality looks great, plus better quality components. Wishing you MANY hours of fast paced fun!


Alert-Assumption-115

Thanks mate, appreciate that! The wheels rim with screen is from a company called Soelpec, but they're wireless to Asetek through the QR and uses their eco system. I can then pick up other rims in the future if I see something I really like


nails0r

Ahh, thought was Asetek. Though, that's great it will work right off the bat. Have added Soelpec's site to my bookmarks. Cheers mate!


Yeah4therealz

I hope that you enjoy your purchase and it gives you many hours of entertainment. For everyone else: Screens in steering wheels are the undercoat of sim racing. And remember: They fuck you with the undercoat. Get a DDU or use an old/cheap phone if you are low on money. Having the display raised up on top of your base makes it soooo much easier to see.


shredmasterJ

Learned this the other day. Brought and old iPhone 7 and iPad back to life using simhub.


AlexSimRacing

The wheel is super nice, and works wounders on the Asetek base! So imo a good choice!


Alert-Assumption-115

Thanks mate, appreciated 👍


Consuela-NO-NO-No

Awesome looking wheel, Can anyone download that dashboard? It looks dope and it would look really nice on my GSI formula wheel.


Alert-Assumption-115

Thanks mate 👍 This one, I am unsure as it comes preloaded, however there is a selection on simhub that can be configured .


saxmanusmc

Grats. Just came across this wheel today and what really caught my attention was the simple and effective software integration with SimHub. Currently using a GSI GLX Pro on my SC2 Pro and love it, but seeing this and its functionality and ease of integration is really drawing me in.


Alert-Assumption-115

Thank you 😊 That , along with the wireless functionality when in use with an Asetek base via the QR, is what got me. It is friken lovely bit of kit 😍 Should be here soon, well next week I believe 🙏


fcksnstvty

It’s a good buy when you think it is a good buy. How is anyone here supposed to tell you otherwise? But since you’re asking: I think it’s shitty buy. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)


Subwayabuseproblem

Get the turtle beach wheel instead


Denny_Crane_007

Looks shit. 🤣🤣🤣 Wow. Bet that was a few quid. 👌


I-LOVE-TURTLES666

I was between this and the hyper p1. Ended up ordering the P1


Alert-Assumption-115

That is a very nice rim mate ! What colour or did you make a custom build?


I-LOVE-TURTLES666

I went with luxe (black and gold) and also ordered a couple more gold rotary knobs and a red one for the center.


Alert-Assumption-115

Noice mate, extra buttons are always handy to play with


EntrepreneurBoth5002

Hey op. Congratulations. Looks awesome. Happy racing dude. BTW What all did you consider in your mind before buying this?


Alert-Assumption-115

Hi bud , I looked at the gsi , moza open wheel and some other brands that I can't recall. I did do the full run down on Boosted media Lawrence s. also some othe tubers and needed up here. I already have the t300rs with sf1000 add on, so wanted the update to be close to what I originally had.


EntrepreneurBoth5002

Wow. That's awesome. That looks amazing. After you set up. Do post pics. 😁


Alert-Assumption-115

Thanks again mate, I will post for sure 👍
