[@T1Oracle]

I would imagine that if you keep everything clean from dust and gunk, the bolts tightened, and the moving parts lubricated, you should be able to maximize its durability. I would look out for signs of overheating, bending, cracking, or anything coming out of alignment. Of course, if it's designed for durability, then it might not need that level of maintenance.

[@RACER-dz8uh]

Probably need 3 months just to get software tuned. Had the h3 for about a year.

[@lordmas2099]

There isnt much to it tbh, should last for a good few years

[@nick_santini]

Here is my long term take, I have had basically this same system for over a year, close to two years at this point. (technically not mine personally owned by my company, but I was responsible for setting up/fixing and have accumulated probably close to 500 hours on it). I work in the technology field, setting up can be a pain and if your not great with technology you might really hate yourself. Taylor states it was easy in this video and the software seems to be newer then what we have, so maybe the have made improvements at this point. The first major issue we ran into was motors over extending and the position sensors getting confused. This would result basically in one motor freaking out or doing nothing at all. We ended up reducing the max movement range for each motor to stop this from happening. Second issue we ran into was the arms that attach the motors to the seat would bend. We replaced these with stronger ones. (We had a ton of people use this some weighing over considerably more then 200 lbs) Third issue we ran into was the power switch on the DOF control box stopped working, (maybe 8-12 months in) this was a pretty easy fix we just replaced the power switch. Fourth issue was one of the arduino that control the motors seemed to fry. We have not fixed at this point. Basically whenever we turn it on now the motor will constantly spin in a circle. tried trouble shooting for hours and seems to be related to that specific port on the controller. Fifth issue depends on the person, but almost every single person that used this setup with VR experienced motion sickness. Even for me the first time I used it I felt really sick, but after continuing a few more times it went away. Most people at work wouldn't get past this point and we had to set up a monitor for 90% of the people that used it. Overall though, as stated in the video for something inside your house, not having to maintain a car, not worrying about crashing etc. This thing is an absolute blast and more then just a toy, this can be used as a tool to help you improve as a driver.

[@WaffleShortage]

to the motion sickness point- if your setup was at a business and people were using it as customers/guests, it's likely that many of them didn't have much time in VR in general, which could be a bigger part of the issue than the motion rig and its software. I know that VR definitely took me a good while to acclimate to. it probably took me a grand total of about 10 hours of play in standing VR stuff before my eyes and brain/inner ear all kind of figured it out and I stopped getting headaches or nausea from playing more than about 20-30 minutes at a time in games where you move around in 3D space more than your real life walking around in a room-scale setup. driving a car in VR with little or no prior VR hours would probably make just about anybody feel sick, even on a $30k motion sim rig.

[@buzzyshizzle5188]

just as the other guy replied: their motion sickness was almost guaranteed to be the VR.

[@jward0071]

Ive done a tonne of VR, Ive got hundreds of hours across a variety of game types. But I cannot do driving VR, I get the strongest most horrible motion sickness after about 5-8 mins and I need to stop playing. its disappointing as I really wanted a setup similar to this. Ive read that it can get better with acclimating yourself to the setup but damn, thats a hard road, Id rather just drive my own car

[@buzzyshizzle5188]

@@jward0071 Yeah, driving and flying VR is where you really need to acclimate. Some games that fit natural body movement or just have you stand in place don't screw with your brain as hard. Besides that, the setup you were on and how it was configured matters very much. Getting it "just right" is no easy task if you don't have a beastly gaming rig. Inconsistent framerates, lower framerates (like even 60fps), anti-aliasing, motion blur, input delays even if imperceptible... The only way to get cozy with it is to have your own headset with your own setup and it takes a couple weeks of maybe an hour a day before its second nature and not leaving you feeling a little off.

[@dieglhix]

@@buzzyshizzle5188 no motion sickness for me, I think it depends on your brain, I have no motion sickness whatsoever even in DCS and Assetto Corsa (HTC PRO VIVE 2 4k @ 120)

Id love a few seconds of your expertise to ask if you think you could ever get ForceFeedback working for MacOS? I’ve got windows on my MacBook but recently noticed most of the F1 20XX have a native macOS install as well as the Dirt series.. But Thrustmaster wheels will only work as an input in macOS, Pretty sure macOS sees them as a usb class complaint because theres no TM macOS installs... Again I can boot into windows but the games will run better natively on macOS.

[@JohnCherubin]

Thank you for this I really wanted something like this and this video helps a lot!

[@Simlife101]

Little tip, buy a harness and strap it to the back of the rig on some strong springs. Then when you hard brake you will have the harness tighten up and feels so much better and more immersive

[@outdoorairconditioner258]

Kinda sounds like a good way to smush yourself

Attaching the harness to the seat mounting would be a great way; your weight being tossed around will do the trick more than enough.

DOF does not stand for Dimension of Freedom but "Degrees of Freedom", it means the system is able to move in 3 axes. 6 DOF means it can move in 3 axes plus rotate in each of them.

Did you have to do a special setup to get the VR working correctly? I have the same setup, and the VR is an HP VR headset. My biggest problem is that between SIM, steam, and Assetto Corsa, I ended up sitting outside the car or in some odd positions such as the seat facing the passenger window after driving for a while. I even tried WITMOTION hardware to compensate for the VR but it only worked intermittently. Would love to know what you did for it to work so well as shown in the video.

I have the G923, and find it great for the introductory wheel that it was for me, but intend on upgrading sometime soon. /shrug

When not in use, it's important to store your motion sim rig in the fully Tuck position.

BUILD A HELMET WHERE YOU CAN CLICK THAT VR HEADSET IN. IMMERSION....!

Lol not for $2500! Better get yourself a $90 helmet a Dremel and 3d print a bracket!

@The Trinity 参 who in there right mind is going to pay 3000+ for that you can just make your own for far less.

Dude I totally agree with the ADC Aussie drift co car pack! That pack is sooooooo good

[@kirkmackelvie9609]

The F1 part actually made me smile. Great job bro! This is amazing. Nothing like this in Australia, price point wise :(

[@jackrholmes]

Love the vid I was looking into buying one for my sim

[@TheChrisChung]

Must be lots of fun to be able to play this everyday!! :)

[@MrSaigai]

Cool to see you could likely just work on it and or upgrade the setup yourself as everything is fairly open and interchangeable looking

[@channelvr1293]

waaaw man being a motion rig VR simracer myself i have to say i think this evenb works better then my Prosimu T1000 motion rig.... maybe i should give this one a try. Thanks for this. ;-)

[@ants00]

Because of this video i bought one 3 months ago. I love it! dirt rally is sick! NEVER thought I'd own a motion sim!

[@MyrothasMcMillan]

is it still good?

[@ants00]

@@MyrothasMcMillan yes still works perfect.

[@MyrothasMcMillan]

@@ants00 man, i think im going to get one.

[@Oskier94]

I really wanted to get one of these, been simracing for 7 years but when I raised money for a very similar setup to yours last year I just decided to keep the money, raise much much more and try to buy a house in the future (a simrig like this is worth around 4500£ with dd wheel and heusinkveld LC pedals) you can buy a nice house in Poland for 50 000£. Still looking at used motion sims and gear but I'm trying to stay strong and not break my mx5. Also thought about selling my car, get a shitbox just to drive to work and fully stick with simracing, it's so fun.

[@DeliriumTremensTWU]

Good grown up decision. Take care of necessities and THEN treat yourself.

[@TommyFjordbge]

Rip wish you could buy a nice house here at that price but nope its more like €500-550K

[@EddieOtool]

Thumbs up for your priorities. Moving from objectives to better ones is somehing lacking overall IMHO.

Thank you spending the time to make the video. I was wondering what brand of racing wheel that is?

I was over here talkin shit when you was explainin this thing, motions of freedom, lol.... but then you started playin.... and i want one of these!

[@MrEarnxtracash]

I would recommend the DIY route, which I did.. COULDN’T be more happier! I modified the SFX-100 open source actuator and added an actual motion controller over an arduino board. I am happy so far, and rather than having 100mm of movement, I have 300mm of movement. I also went with 10 degree ball screws rather than the 5 degree ball screws it was designed with. Now I can have more movement when I fly around, and less movement when I am driving. DOF is really over priced when you look into DiYing your own platform. Xsimulator is out there and they have tons of useful documented builds. FYI, DOF as in 3DOF and 6DOF means degrees of freedom.

[@TheInfinityPrinting]

How much did your DIY motion sim cost? (Only the DIY motion sim itself)

[@kenwhitney9146]

Great video! Now I NEED one!

[@jacobishii6121]

I remember using the tank driving simulators back at Ft.Knox and thinking how cool it would be if the tech was available for gaming and here we are almost 30 years later and its available and affordable

[@Rakonus]

I hear they're also making full motion vacuum cleaners these days, too. What a time to be alive.

[@VENOMFPV1995]

3 years later. Find this video expecting a motion sim for under $1,000 but turns out it’s like $5k ☹️☹️☹️

[@richardrussell7082]

You can get mounts to add keyboards to sim rigs. Basically it would be angled toward you at your 10 o'clock position (or 2 depending on your handedness lol).

[@kazumaonizuka]

This looks awesome! Would love try this in a game like Snowrunner lol

[@r7kelley553]

Man if I had your set-up I wouldn't get shit done. I would never leave home:-)

[@barry4666]

So you wouldn’t get anything done 😂

[@kamtubel]

That’s great. I wonder is it difficult to find and reach to the shift and the handbreak while you use it VR. Can you see them while you play the game with VR?

[@tougesubaru420]

I have vr and play assetto corsa and American truck simulator with an 18 speed transmission. you develop a memory real quickly on where the shifter and buttons and stuff are.

[@tougesubaru420]

also no you cant see anything but the game while in vr

[@DrumApe]

Awesome! Can you do a video to see how it's holding up after 1.5 years of use?

[@daveluck2874]

For the money.it is a great piece of gaming equipment.it can be up graded to 6 degrees of motion. I'm not sure about small people .but I suggest the pro series. It 2800.00 but comes with the larger motors .I'm a big guy .I fly I'm my set up.and it feels like I'm flying a bad ass f14 Tom cat fighter. With vr its assume. Just dont forget about your real life for to long.they may reposed your crap! It's to much fun.

[@jrops2]

Hey Taylor, what did you use to mount your oculus rift sensor to your simulator? Also, i see the additional sensor behind your monitor..are you running both sensors or are you only running the single mounted one? Thanks for any info you might have i also have an oculus rift and am waiting for my h3 to arrive

[@FabZtoy]

man. i was just controlling my urge to get a simulator and then this! Am I the only one that can't wait to see more of ben's LS miata? looked sick in Bode's video and looks even sicker drifting!

[@helmhurst]

more miata

[@Devedander]

So I'm curious, especially with the yaw moving your angle around, doesn't that mess with the orientation of the real wheel and pedals vs what you see in game? What I mean is the game expects you to remain in the same physical position in VR so as the seat moves around aren't you effectively moving around in the cockpit of the car and the wheels and pedals are moving out of alignment with the in game representation?

[@notthatbad8844]

That's what I'm thinking

[@TRAXRIPPER]

DAMN dude! I can remember playing Gran Tourismo ,Toca Race Driver and World Of Outlaw Sprint Car on my PS3 and being stoked because of the new rumble controllers making it "feel" more real! LMFAO! I'm about to be 45 and I was like ummmm.... I MUST HAVE THIS! Just watching this and knowing how the cars react from all the years of throwing down laps I COULD FEEL IT AS YOU DROVE AS I WAS ROCKING IN MY COMPUTER CHAIR AND LEANING OUT THE TURNS WITH YOU LIKE SLIDING OUT OF MY SEAT! LIKE HANG THE HELL ON WE GOT THIS SHIT! LMFAO! YOU HAVE FOUND US THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH AND KIND ENOUGH TO SHARE THE INFORMATION! HAMMER DOWN BRO! SALUTE!
