I just bought this pedal today along with 2 ActivePedals. I can't wait for them to arrive so I can start playing around with the configuration. I'm one of those guys with a different Simucube 2 profile for every car in iRacing. I love tweaking this stuff so much.

[@InsertYourself1]

How bro? The Active Pedals have been out of stock for awhile

[@frankderks1150]

My Invicta break started leaking after 1 and a half year of use. So I had to look for a new pedal set. Went active+passive thanks for the code!

[@SerialDriver]

I'm perfectly happy with it, i don't feel the need of a 2nd AP. I hope simucube will release a passive clutch

[@enlacecomunitario]

I bought the combo Active - passive and base plate using your code Dan5 I can't wait for them!!

[@mannyfresh7065]

how do you like it?! debating on getting that combo

[@everythinggaming7938]

They need one for the clutch I don't mind having active pedals for the throttle and brake but I do not want an active clutch as i barely use the clutch and it doesnt make sense to pay 2k for a clutch pedal. They need to make a cheaper clutch

[@RabbitConfirmed]

Heusinkveld offers a seperate clutch tho

[@everythinggaming7938]

@@RabbitConfirmed yeah but thats not my point, it also would look out of place

[@TehApeexx]

Many thanks Dan for your review. Just ordered the bundle with your code!

[@sheep7255]

There is an api in the works so that the amount of throw and how stiff/soft the pedals are can be changed per car by the game telemetry. And this also includes clutches, which should get a bite point feeling for every car that has it programmed in, along with a supporting game. Dunno how long it will take to develop, but I asked simucube, and they said they're working on some kind of thing for doing that

[@liono510]

That last adjustment makes sense , with that wierd pedal face angle

[@killo98]

Really well built product, Simucube standards. However was an absolutely "no go" item for me. At this price should have dampener and a heavy spring. I went for DCsimracing standalone throttle to combine it with my AP (brake) and I´m really happy, it has dampener,, heavy spring, its black and costs 199€...

[@jamespacker8603]

I tried this throttle along side the active peddle on my friend setup. Active peddle is an awesome experience. The throttle on the other hand totally overpriced and once underfoot feels like the Fanatec csl elite throttle peddle under foot. In it’s defence it has great adjustability but very lazy design execution. A simple rubber bushing could have been fitted to stop the noise on releasing the peddle and with at this price they could have supplied the peddle with a decent selection of springs. Sorry but at 350 euro they could have done a-lot better. Maybe a hydraulic damper. Very poor price vs performance!!

[@RabbitConfirmed]

Couldn't we just put some sort of "rubber bushing" or some sort of dampening material on there by ourselves? Or would that be difficult? EDIT: btw. I agree that the things you mentioned should be improved

[@jamespacker8603]

@@RabbitConfirmedindeed I think you could add a rubber washer or two but I’d need to check. Hpwever this wouldn’t help with spring feel but this could be fixed with a stronger spring but this might be not included because a stronger it may over stress the travel adaptor screw thread.

[@jamespacker8603]

[@RabbitConfirmed]

@@jamespacker8603 yea it's possible.. i guess the bottom line is, that the Heusinkveld Ultimate are probably still the better passive throttle?

[@xelario]

Since you mentioned this pedal is loud, what are the quietest pedals? And h/sequential shifters... Reviews don't always mention loudness, but it's very important for some people.

[@alexanderdiak]

been waiting for this

[@zainhaider8362]

I have just learned that I release the trottle pedal too quickly.

[@jcsquared1111]

Was totally thinking the same thing. Maybe that is why my irating is 1675 lmao 😂

[@ConradoMazaro]

I don't know, why wouldn't u release quickly on heavy braking?

[@davefellows]

You could easily dampen that return noise with a bit of rubber or something.

[@teddyruxpin3811]

I want to buy a single simucube active pedal but sometimes I play games that require a clutch. Is there a throttle AND clutch combo?

[@sylv1-MRS]

Jou can connect a heusinkveld clutch and use the simucube software 👍

[@RabbitConfirmed]

buy heusinkveld clutch

[@Onii77]

I modded the passive throttle to use a Fanatec adjustable damper because I was disappointed that such a costly pedal didn't have damping. idk if it's bad ettiequte to shout out a short vid on my channel but I posted it just for this.

[@DanSuzuki]

That's a very cool mod! Feel free to link your video directly here.

[@LiMa33620]

I have the same pedal. I find the feel very good, but for me, the main issue is the pedal's surface, which I find very slippery. I don't know if there is a footrest that could solve this problem.

[@JTayler292]

Try skateboard grip tape.

[@xHMProductionx]

Simcore makes a pedal plate but I’m not sure if it’s grippier. Would be nice to also have the right guard to also prevent your foot from slipping off.

[@danielmalka8884]

Great video! I can only dream on a set like that (: what are your favorite pedals for around 600 euros?

[@everythinggaming7938]

Heusinkveld sprint pedals are the best for that price point

[@volkarach0293]

Hmm there are a lot to chose from…for me its the simgrade vx-pro pedalset.

[@amigoz3201]

@@everythinggaming7938you are wrong mate, VRS are best, me and few guys compared VRS with HE ultimates and everyone chose VRS thats speaks something ;)

[@amigoz3201]

VRS, thank me later, btw dont push Dan, we know he likes VRS a lot vet he has to do reviews ;)

[@everythinggaming7938]

@@amigoz3201 no chance imo and I've owned both

[@EnzoRacer1]

Your table, PC case, monitor, mic are dancing ))

[@m50b20f]

Throttle pedal is just a throttle pedal, it doesn't need load cell or to be active.

[@RabbitConfirmed]

How does it compare to the Helsinkveld?

[@DanSuzuki]

Heusinkveld Ultimate throttle imo is better

[@assassin6540]

what is the name of the steering wheel kept behind?

[@casperfranken6595]

Its the GSI hyper p1 . If you refer to the steering wheel on the table

[@nunopinheiro75]

They should make one exactly like this, but with a loadcell

[@DanSuzuki]

But this has a loadcell 😅

[@Johnny_Thunder]

What a rip off.

[@Xanclarkers]

Code Dan100 isnt working? :D

[@DanSuzuki]

Im gonna talk to Simucube about this error - sorry 😛
