GSI FPEv2 vs. FPE and quick unboxing

[@danielgutzz]

Change the batteries on your smoke detector man lol

[@austinpowell7417]

cant afford after buying the wheel xD

[@radius2372]

Sweet piece bro! I liked your other video too on the P1. I was set on getting the P1 and while I was saving up and finally had the money I sorta decided I think I really like the way the grips look on the FPv2 I like the thumb wheels too. You have a killer collection of wheels! Keep on racin!

[@simworld7780]

@radius2372 thanks alot bro, I'm with on that 1, the P1 of course, won't let you down but I gotta admit when you 1st power up that FPEv2 it easily stole the show for me, great led layout thumb encoders are at the perfect spot and gets the job done without leaving you want for more. You'll be happy with your selection. But the design of the P1 does give a more confident feeling grip with the smaller thumb holes at the top.

Congrats on the wheel! I love the smaller grips going from the chunky ones and agree w what you said! Feels more premium

[@GitGudRacing]

Thanks for the video man! I'm considering getting the FPE2 too, currently using the FPE1 - mainly for the thumbs encoders!

[@simworld7780]

No problem, I know it's a tough decision to make, we all wished the OG FPE had thumb encoders.

How are so many KZbinrs able to ignore a smoke detector chirp?

[@itsthebarman]

if you aren’t black you wont understand 🤣

[@richdelmazzio9890]

I am in the same boat as you. I liked my chunky v1 grips. My initial experience with my v2 has been downplayed by the lack of feel from the new grips. My review will come out soon. Thanks for the video!

[@simworld7780]

Nicee, no problem, enjoy them

[@geforce5591]

Love the improvements to the FPE V2. The V1 had way too many drawbacks for the price. It looked good and that was it. Fanatec got the buttons and rotary encoders right for $300 on the Formula wheel. All GSI had to do back then was copy Fanatec. Also, it's better to compare weight between the two wheels after you have attached the hub and quick release. It's surprising how much weight those things add to a wheel.

[@simworld7780]

Yepp, fanatec haven't released an f1 wheel with a full dash, so GSI got some of that market at least, they took the proceeds and improved . Yeah, the quick release adds a bit of weight,good note.

[@emmanuelmoraless]

i remember back in the day it wasnt box jut a platic bag lol

[@simworld7780]

Oh yeah lol, they came a long way

[@phusebox]

How do you compare this to the P1? Can't decide and not enough funds to buy more than 1 wheel.

[@simworld7780]

Hey man, more than one is not necessary, I lean towards my Hyper P1 for formula style cars it flows with my imagination and the FPEv2 I'll do more Le Mans/indycar... only because I have both. However, if I had to choose one, I'd probably go the FPEV2 even though it has less buttons/encoders. It's a great all-around wheel that checks all the boxes and holds a neutral feel for all styles of racing, but not to take away from the Hyper P1 it's their flagship wheel, this is just my opinion but they both feel great in the palm of my hands.

[@phusebox]

Thanks. Not what I expected, I expected the P1 to be more versatile.

[@simworld7780]

@phusebox no problem, go for the P1

[@diskk]

Nice unboxing! Can’t wait to receive mine. I went Blackout theme but this is making me doubt my selection haha. Can you click/push the thumb encoders? Trying to figure out my button mapping.

[@simworld7780]

Thanks, I'm excited for you. The colors just add a slight flair when powered off, but the real beauty hits when you plug it in, and all the programmable LEDs are on to add your own flair, so you are not missing anything. NO! the thumb encoders just rotate up and down.

Bruh, stop being a damn stereotype and change your fire alarm battery 😂
