Fanatec F1 Magnetic Shifters - Cromulent Designs 45 Degree Mod Overview

[@punkish7]

Received and installed mine yesterday. Very nice, and big improvement over the other I had. These allow you to adjust your paddles and the magnets will still make contact. With the others I had, if you wanted to adjust your paddles for a short throw, the magnets would separate. This is a far better design. Highly recommend if you are looking for the mod.

Thanks for creating this mod. Bought a set on your EBay store and just installed them today on my F1 esports wheel. So much better than the stock shifters! The angled design is perfect. So glad I found this!

Thanks! Love the feedback, good or bad!

[@douglasblickle1557]

Great product! Well thought out and worth the cost. Good videos for support as well, more companies should follow your example.

[@A60363]

Thank you, I appreciate the feedback!

[@gregpruitt1647]

Excellent video. As soon as I ordered my Fanatec F1 wheel, the next thing I did was to order a set of these.

[@chrischand5082]

Looks brilliant.

[@BrittonMittens]

Yes!! Thank you! putting my order in now and can't wait to test em out :)

[@jarrodclyne707]

Lovely design, well done.

[@brandenfick2009]

Thanks! Just installed mine and they’re perfect! I do have one suggestion. Could you possibly make a hole above the adjustment screw on the back of the switch housing? Mine and a buddies paddles needed adjusting after installing and we had to remove the mod to do this. Would make life a little easier. Thanks again.

[@A60363]

Thanks for the feedback! Are you referring to the screw for the microswitch that uses a 1.5mm hex key?

[@brandenfick2009]

@@A60363 yes I believe that’s it. I have a pic of it but can’t add it here. It’s next to the nut that you have left a hole for on the back plate you send out.

Can you develop a magnetic shifter mod for the CLS Universal Hub?

[@gtr_lion]

Great video and design 👍 ... quick question, would those be compatible to install on the the Xbox universal hub?

[@A60363]

Thanks! It may depend on which hub you're referring to... If it's the "Clubsport Steering Wheel Universal Hub for Xbox One", it might not - I'm not sure if the mounting is different or if it's just the shifter wiring that is different. If you'd like to try a set out and confirm fitment we can work something out.

[@gtr_lion]

Cromulent thank you for the quick reply! Yeah I was referring to the ClubSport universal Xbox one hub. The design on both look similar, however I am not sure if the size of where the mod gets installed is different or if it may cause some interference (around the angled area). If you can provide the measurements of the mod, I would try to see if it may work (estimate) and would be happy to give it a try if the measurements are close enough.

@@gtr_lion Send me a PM (if you can - not sure how that works on KZbin - I tried sending you one but cannot...)

[@punkish7]

I have a different magnet mod which is a big improvement over stock, but it is too stiff for me. Can you make one with a weaker magnet, or supply multiple magnets? I like the feel, but need something with less resistance. Thanks!

[@A60363]

I'm not sure how strong the magnets are on the mod you have, but these are a good blend between feedback and light action. I've never had anyone complain they were too strong or too light.

[@punkish7]

@@A60363 thanks for the prompt reply. Ordered a set. And adjusted paddles thanks to your post regarding that!

[@recipe4jam966]

This mod looks great. Do you deliver to the UK?

[@A60363]

I do!

[@Kevinlinaresroller]

How are these compared to the ones fanatec sells on their website?

[@A60363]

I have the Fanatec ones, and they are great, but at 1/4 of the price, these offer ~75% of the improvement. They are a great value for folks that don't want to drop 1/3rd of the price of their wheel on shifters.

[@MrTemplarious]

I really like them. Would you sale to me the files to print it? I live in Mallorca, Spain and I don´t wanna buy it and pay almost the same price for the shipping costs.

[@LifeofTF]

does buy 1 (from eBay) get you a set of 2 or one single shifter module?

[@A60363]

You get everything you need to outfit one wheel - both sides and the 4 screws needed

[@LifeofTF]

@@A60363 Awesome, and these work with the formula carbon as well right?

[@A60363]

@@LifeofTF yep!

[@Jkarl74]

Do they work with the formal v2 wheel from fanatec?

[@A60363]

They work with the V2, eSports, and Carbon

[@Jkarl74]

@@A60363 thanks

[@TiTchPC]

If you flip the paddle does the mod still work?

[@A60363]

I'm not sure what you mean by flip, but they're polarity matched, so you can shuffle the parts around and they'll still work - there is no left or right side.

[@etzel6124]

Hi, how strong are the magnets

[@A60363]

I use 3.36 lb magnets, which give a nice breakaway feeling without adding excessive pull force. If more force is desired, you can stack an additional 8x3mm magnet on the stationary part of the paddle.

[@RikoGonzalez]

I'm in mpls wanna buy a set!

[@davegundry3213]

Riko Gonzalez awesome, I’ll get in touch with you so we can work out a pickup!
