Square curve throttle could be a significant advantage in cars with no traction control and f1 titles, which require delicate throttle control to be fast. This pedal set is really impressive. Thanks for always putting out quality content to feast upon.

[@RWoody1995]

eh i think that can be recreated on normal pedals, nothing's stopping you putting a linearity adjustment on them. on that aspect these just provide more adjustability for the feel and the opportunity to implement a bunch of immersion stuff that a spring cant achieve.

[@aeiouxs]

Great stuff Will. A full-feedback gated shifter which grates, grinds after poor clutch inputs perhaps even fails/loses gears is another thing I'd love to see in the future. Can't imagine how complicated or expensive THAT product would be though... Good stuff Simucube!

[@nicholascrow8133]

It's brilliant that simucube brought these to market. As you pointed out, this tech will filter down to other manufactures, reducing cost, something that a vast majority of the community, who tend to be "stuck in their own ways" seemed to have missed... Let's see what cost brands like simagic or moza can bring similar products to market at!!!

[@DaniMacYo]

These are a game changer. Just gonna be a small percentage that can experience it for now. I’ve been saying to myself ever since I experienced Haptic Feedback on my PS5 controller I wanted something like that implemented into all my sim gear. Like the wheel, pedals, the seat. Haptic style feedback feels really nice I think and if it’s a stronger sensation the better. These pedals have impressive feedback plus the mechanical movement which is pretty awesome. So cool. But yes they are very expensive.

[@tver]

Great review! For those of us with a lot of money to burn, they seem an excellent all-in-one solution. Not just for sim racing, but possibly for flight simming as well! Having two pedals act as if they are mechanically linked, like rudder pedals, should be fairly straightforward to make possible via a software upgrade. Switching out racing pedals for rudder pedals would be a thing of the past. As is using a mechanically sprung clutch and accelerator together as a rudder, which is an imperfect solution. For people running a dual set up and shopping in the top segment, this could be an added feature, if Simucube were to implement a “linked”-mode.

[@davidbottger5495]

Im really looking forward to that tactile transducers versus the Simucube pedals video. I assume that the throttle vibrations can just as well be conveyed through tactile transducers. You would probably not get the „fighting against ABS“ feeling in the brake but maybe the vibration is enough to make you feel what’s going on and therefore make you as fast. Though I expect the improvement to take longer since interpreting vibrations is not as intuitive as interpreting force, it might be the same in the end.

[@boostedmedia]

If there's one thing I've learnt through testing so many different types of hardware through so many different price brackets it's that your brain is amazingly good at filling in the blanks. I do think there's still a lot of unrealised potential in the simucube pedals though. For example they dont yet respond to brake fade and alter their feel dynamically but it's certainly possible to do.

[@GMCRaptor]

Agree Dave, it it worth and extra $5500 Aud over tactile transducers? Think not.

[@russelljimenez4715]

I wonder how hard it would be to DIY some FFB Pedals. I think the hardware is probably the easy part, it is mainly the software where the magic happens.

[@davidbottger5495]

You are probably right, the motors themselves are actually pretty cheap but it is not easy to to make them smooth when external force is applied and they have to counteract. I might try experimenting with these motors. Maybe I can build such a pedal. But I probably need to buy little Servo motors instead of using the stepper motors I have laying around. First of all, I will try to replicate the effect with tactile transducers. I already ordered one for my Brake.

[@christinesweetnam]

Will's expression at 22:27 and again at 31:11 Priceless. And a sneaky Tom in the background 😀

[@theglitch312]

“High end equipment doesn’t make you faster, it’ll make you more consistent.” These pedals: “Here’s an immediate 0.250s improvement of your PB. You’re welcome.”

[@johnseyerle]

I had same experience. Installed the active pedals and jumped into a track car combo I had set a personal best and within 10 laps took a second off my personal best using previous high end pedals. It’s crazy money but if you can afford them and are a die hard sim racing hobbyist it is best investment for immersion combined with d-box.

[@keithbriscoe99]

So cool that there are NEW developments in the Sim Racing world.

[@SuperMK1989]

The fact that this now exists is amazingly exciting. I'm new to simracing but immediately I noticed the lack of feedback from pedals compared to my car IRL. Adding that would be the greatest immersion increase I can think of.

[@PPedroFernandes]

Wow, this is actually blowing my mind. For a long time, everytime I clutch in in a car I wonder "when will someone come out with a force feedback pedal so I can actually feel the clutch biting", but this honestly goes beyond my wildest dreams! The guys at simucube are actually insane, this looks so good! Yhea, it's just an initial impressions, but from your reactions just playing with the settings, it seems they absolutely nailed the feel! I can't wait for the tech to mature and come down in price!

These would be great for a flight sim too. Controlling the rudder in flight does have natural feedback in air.

[@ijesko_7]

That rumble feel of adaptive triggers in the dualsense controller was a game changer for me in f1 23, you can literally feel when the brakes boutta lock up

[@MadMike991]

I hear you on the unfair advantage but this isn’t really just limited these pedals. Equipment really does matter and I know I’ve gotten faster as I have steadily upgraded my rig. Take triple monitors, the wider FOV is massive in terms of avoiding collisions, seeing apexes, etc. But talent matters too and I’m never going to be an alien regardless of my equipment.

[@Duke49th]

I am not sure if Equipment matters, if we talk about more than a decent FFB wheel and basic loaded cell pedals. I saw a video the other day from a young fella who is in the top 10 of iRacing drivers and he just uses the G25 or G27 with loaded cell pedals and a regular monitor with I think not even track IR. I can imagine that it helps beginners/intermediants more than it helps pro's.

[@faramund9865]

I quit sim racing fairly quickly after buying my first wheel because I realized breaking feedback was needed in order to stop making breaking feel like a gamble. Breaking is a massive part of racing and it surprises me a little that it has taken so long for these to be developed. It's very nice to see how excited you are for it and how well it works. I hope they'll be able to make these affordable for most people.

[@SegginsProductions]

I’ve already seen someone come up with a prototype of a diy setup based directly on these pedals, and even the first iteration is looking great! The limiting factor will probably be the software, but I can’t wait to see it be developed and even for other companies to start making their own (cheaper) version too!

[@The-Real-Taco]

I think at this point, with someone willing to shell out that much for pedals, the difference in time is probably negligible. I can see this making a difference to an unexperienced driver, but when it comes to already having experience, I think these will help save a couple tenths, but not much more. The people who can afford these and are willing to purchase them are presumably already putting down heater laps, and these won't change that. I don't think we have anything to worry about when it comes to pay-to-win because at the end of the day it all comes down to skill and commitment. Great video, this makes me excited for the future!

[@sodz006]

Awesome an absolutely genuine review Will. Nice work.

[@RWoody1995]

I love the idea of what these could potentially support, I mean imagine if instead of you tweaking the pedals to feel exactly as you decide you want them to feel, the sim can in real time change them so the pedal travel, force required to achieve x amount of brake pad actuation and linearity all match the actual car based on data the sim devs collected and then even things like brake fluid temperature and brake pad/disc condition can be fed in to alter the pedal behavior... or what if the clutch bite point actually moves to emulate a wearing clutch or under mechanical failures maybe the pedal falls to the floor etc... Although as amazing as these things are there will always be a guy in Scandinavia running an original Logitech G25 and a LawnChair(TM) sim rig who will go faster still :) it's always going to be immersion and consistency where these things come in which help you to learn a new car or track faster by feeding you more info.

[@mattbell1907]

It would be interesting to see if games could use this for a similar thing to how the Dualsense triggers are used in Wreckfest with traction control off. It lets you know when you are close to locking up or wheelspin by having the force required go up just before and then disappear almost completely once you go over it. The point this happens at is dynamic so if you're going in a straight line and slam on the brakes you can go hard then as you slow down you feel the loss of grip when the weight shifts backwards and know to ease off the brake. Same with using wheelspin to control a slide it lets you know how much throttle will break traction.

[@jtland4842]

This sort of technology would be so useful in teaching someone to drive a stickshift car when used as a clutch. It would likely need a plugin for the game to take full advantage of the capabilities but the potential is just enormous in so many ways. I will be eagerly waiting for when I will be able to afford something like this one day.

You may be able to quiet it slightly by using a different lubricant, but i dont know if that will change the pedal feel slightly.

Another thing to, at least for me, that would be a deterrent also to not purchase them, is the main feature to these that even was shown here is the abs function, which is only being implemented into a few games at the moment. For many of us, if we could afford these even, play all the older titles as well, which at this price range not only are they eliminating most of us from owning or experiencing them, but they are also making a statement that is for the rich and the professional driver scene, which means most likely the pedals are not going to have all their extra features being shown in older titles.. I could be wrong, but if that is going to be the case, then what would be an even bigger reason to not purchase when you won't be getting their full features outside of three games.

16:02 I want to give a shout out to your editor ! I believe he’s your brother I suck at names ! Well done

[@boostedmedia]

Thanks. Tom does an amazing job :)

[@coolguy10060]

This looks amazing but i hope this trickles down the same way DD wheels have into more affordable category's but no doubt it is a revolution for the market

[@b6s4shelter]

And to think I used to put a playing card in my Bike's spokes.... We've come a long way!

[@harveylow5805]

Awesome video as usual Will, nice initial feedback! How's the feeling when traction control kicks in?

Wish list BUTT Kicker FFB Pedals Thanks mate!

Very interesting product! I think the only reason to use this for throttle is if you want to simulate old cars with cable operated throttle body where the friction settings might be important. As you said, you can have just engine vibrations for cheaper. However, for brake and clutch, the ability to freely adjust the force curve and to have ABS feedback seem really interesting. The price is tought. If they can cut the price 80-90% (obviously isn't happening too soon) then this would be no-brainer. And unfortunately, you will not see community support with this high prices.

so today i learned money can in fact actually buy happiness. The boys at simucube have truly taken another step torwards true immersion

[@ivangomez8067]

That square curve would be super useful in cars without ABS. Set it up with a linear force just up to where you are close to lock up and then ramp up the force needed past that to help gauge where to brake.

Great video! I saw you said this feels as a revolution as first time you used buttkickers, but is it more of a game changer? Or would you pick sim motion over both?

[@-CLASSIFIED-]

the 2 things i feel missing have been pedal feedback for clutch and brake. this is quite neat. theres already someone out there that has a DIY of this exact same design which is much cheaper to make if you have the know how / dedication

[@likafoss]

Any hints on where to find this person?

[@colossalbigfoot256]

Can tell by your voice this will be a game changer for people who can afford it. Haven’t even looked at the price.. I’m still trying to save for a DD wheel.. 🤨

[@thierrym6168]

You’re so enthusiastic, they should pay you because we all just want them now !
