Hahaha, shots fired at Jerry, just kidding. He needs to review that setup. You think he'd like it Jay?

[@JohnVanderbeck]

I have the same chair, but am actually considering selling it. It is a GREAT chair, no arguments, but I find myself spending less and less time in it as the whole bit of getting it setup, and climbing in and out is a real pain. Plus I use it for both Flight Sim and Racing, but there is no easy way to handle both so i'm constantly swapping out devices. The main problem is it just sucks for "everyday pc" use, which is fair since it isn't designed for that. But it means you kind of still need a traditional desk *and* this and you have to move back and forth which is just a pain.

JayzTwoCents jay I know how hard it is to lose weight i was 31 stone i was bullied most of my life am now 11.5 stone you try becoming a vegetarian and do intermittent fasting

[@johnleonard3951]

You are a big guy jay yes but a fatty no. You have come a long way in your weight loss.

[@usdjxavi]

JayzTwoCents how hard was assembly? i bought over the last couple years parts for my cockpit, an apiga ap2 off of amazon. had to buy seat mount and seat separately since they couldnt afford to ship it stateside. its keyboard mount is rotational but it still gets in the way and the mousepad mount is way too small. in fact i couldnt even get the seat to align properly. spent about the same as the obutto but with out all the quality. no cable management meant ziptying everything. its ergonomics are just wrong all around. it was definetly made for a smaller frame. in fact my wife has issues with it and she is 5'2" with a small frame. but i digress, i dont know how she is gonna take it when i go ahead and plop down on an obutto, but oh well haha

[@ArisuVEVO]

I'll add this to Things I Can't Afford But Wish I Could List

[@tjsimracing7976]

While the expensive cockpits certainly look good, if you have basic timber knowledge you can whip something up just as functional for a fraction of the price. Plenty of free designs on the web. $50-80 in timber and a used car seat.

[@ArisuVEVO]

TJ Simracing Sounds awesome.

Running a basic Wheel Stand Pro with a Vive for iRacing and AC, that keyboard and mouse tray is absolutely worth it. Definitely time for an upgrade, this looks killer.

[@Jayztwocents]

Correction. These are not made by Main Performance PC, they are just the main US Distributor. They are manufactured in Beijing... still very impressive build quality.

[@anfiach]

Just to point out for people who might care, Jay is mistaken about the origin of these cockpits. They are manufactured in China by Obutto (American owned) and distributed in the U.S. through Main Performance PC (American owned, not the same company as Obutto).

[@kedwardsTWO]

Jay, could you do a review of what you think of the vive after playing around with it for so long. Giving impressions on what you think now the 'new factor's had worn off?

[@erockrufiero]

if I ever get the space for one of these.. id love to have one, but for now I'm gonna live vicariously through you Jay!

I just checked their website it says "We have ended our distribution of Obutto products as of November 30th, 2018." Does anyone know any other good alternatives?

[@yvonperez8923]

LikeGroceries playseat is an alternative.

[@Dan-Hanisch]

I've had my Obutto R3v for a few years now. The VR makes a nice addition. I augmented mine with more 80/20 railing for add-ons. Have been very impressed with the quality.

[@Jasonhalls]

I have the same rig and you can swap the seat out. I am a big guy and found the Obutto seat to be a little narrow for endurance racing. The seat base width is the same as a standard racing seat so I just went to Summit racing and bought a wider bucket seat and it fits perfectly. I have also had to replace the seat rails (sliders) before and all the bolt holes are standard stuff so even cheap Ebay seat rails fit if you ever have to change them out. Just FYI for anyone thinking of this setup. It's awesome BTW, zero flex and everything is in the right place. I have transducers attached to mine on the four corners using Simvibe. The rig is so solid that every detail from Simvibe is passed through the chassis. Great stuff.

[@falconrod1]

You could probably replace the seat with a legit racing seat meant for cars.

Hey Jay. I usually don't leave comments, but I have to say that over the past year, I watched your videos and became inspired. I made my own KZbin channel, and it doesn't have a lot of hits (and I expect it to never blow up). But I do it as a hobby. But the other thing is that your passion for helping others, inspired me to help others as well. Which is why I went out and got my A+ (along with Sec+ and Net+), and now I am an IT administrator for one of the biggest colleges in the country. I just want to personally thank you. I know you probably will not read this, and not looking for any thing in return. I simply want to say thank you, and I hope to inspire and help others like you have. Again thanks, and stay being honest. Transition!

have you tried Assetto Corsa? great car game/"Sim"

[@Gigidag77]

but I cant spend 150 bucks on a single car or 15 bucks a month in AC ! Obviously it must be inferior to the iRacing community.

[@mesittingduck]

i used one of these for over a year as a racing/ gaming rig and it was fantastic.

[@ross-carlson]

Hanging (Pendant) Style pedals - you can do this with a mod kit for the Club Sport V2s (which I have) but for the V3's like you have you can buy them in pendant style (hanging clutch and brake) with floor hinged throttle. Feels much more like a real car as virtually all racecars are setup that way.

[@CoalitionGaming]

Aw, i wanted to see you using it :(

[@file1man]

so Jay says he uses HTC Vive. Since you are an experienced pc racer, please do an occulus vs HTC Vive comparison if occulus will give you some review units

[@sparkplug1018]

Honestly, I think both headsets would work equally well in this application. Since your not using the motion tracking that the Vive offers in a racing sim.

[@zedzedski7382]

Both headsets work equally well. There is no difference between the image quality as both have same specs. The core difference is sensors and touch controllers. Also, HTC Vive is bulky as fuck compared to Oculus Rift. HTC Vive weighs 555 grams without cables and headphones and mic, while Oculus Rift weighs 470 grams with headphones and built in mic and all cables. If you use VR just for sim racing then get Oculus Rift - it's much lighter and cheaper (costs $500 without touch controls on Amazon) but if you play games where moving around is a thing then get HTC Vive. I got Oculus Rift for my sim racing setup and it's fantastic. Tried also HTC Vive and as I said, it's bulky as fuck and heating like a bitch.

[@Robonator14]

your info is a bit outdated, since the new revisions of the Vive are in fact around the same weight of the Rift. heat is an issue with both headsets, not only the vive.

[@zedzedski7382]

Robonator there is no change in revisions. lol it's the same bulky headset. All they revised was do a couple tweaks for the screen since they use AMOLED as opposed to Rift OLED

[@Robonator14]

go on and google it. why are there so many sources saying something different?

[@kaypolplasco]

this is why i love your channel on both worlds, pc and cars. You owning a Nismo 370z is what i love because youre not like other most youtubers who chooses exotic cars.

[@SubBrief]

Is there a racing setup with a normal chair height? My knees can't take getting in and out of a little chair.

[@lagynas]

I welded my own at friends garage for G25 back in 2008 if I remember and put seat from a car. Overall cost was around 15$, so for me 800$ is plainly stupid when it has a lot imperfection you mentioned.

[@Raigekon]

You should take into account that most ppl can't build this and that compared to other cockpits it's still pretty cheap.

[@lagynas]

Well most, but Jay isn't both left handed, I believe he can :)

[@Raigekon]

That i can agree with

[@megapro125]

depends on your mindset. I know some people who would include their hourly wage into the cost since they could work during the time they used builing it instead. If you're one of those guys it might not be woth it depending on how much you earn and how long it takes to weld that construction (I have no idea how long this would take).

[@lagynas]

A day. Starting from designing a model, then buying tubing and finishing with paint. It took me 4 hours to make, since all parts were at friends garage except car seat. In these 4 hours at work I would make only 15€ so it's no brainer for me to build it myself, over the paying 800 for kit with flaws.

[@birgerjarl4391]

Nice but a motion rig and a manual would be evan nicer

[@larielrumad]

These are the type of videos I enjoy. In your new studio you just feel like a generic youtuber! Thanks for the entertainment!

[@tsi87supr60]

For the detachable shifter mount. Drill a hole and use a pull pin. The pull pins are available at any McCoys, tractor supply or farm related store. If that pipe is very thin in wall thickness that drilled hole will get bigger with repetitive usage. Sleeving that hole will make it last longer to every day usage.

[@MohdTN]

you should drift in assetto corsa

[@zedzedski7382]

Jay, get OSW Wheel. Way better than Fanatec.

[@lordgaben2106]

yeah, OSW is a kickass wheel. FFB is like 5 times stronger. Direct Drive system rules.

[@arturskronenbergs1433]

+ Lord Gaben I got the OSW Kit MiGE 130ST-M15015 it has 30Nm compared to Fanatec CSW v2.5 8Nm. The FFB is insane, makes me feel that I'm really driving a car and it's a no joke if you don't hold the wheel steady.

[@thenonadventure]

OSW + Argon

[@sethfrancissimracing7558]

Argon is old news now, SimuCUBE is the way to go going forwards. SimuCUBE is similar to Argon but will continue to have firmware support where the Argon is no longer seeing firmware updates.

[@zedzedski7382]

+lucas rem that's what OSW SimCube is all about. Buy parts and build it yourself. www.simracingbay.com/shop/

Love my Revolution 3, but I had to wait several months for the shipping container from China to arrive in a U.S. Port after I Pre ordered it through Main Performance PC. I do use it with 3 - 27" monitors as a workstation as well as a simulator. My experience has been great. I drilled holes and built custom mounts for my X-55 HOTAS setup.

Wow! that is pretty freaking sweet!

[@tombendar9299]

Anyone else watching this while sitting in an Obutto?

[@tombendar9299]

It is, I also use it as a workstation, it is more comfortable than a desk for me. Since I don't use a shiftier or anything, I just use the shiftier mount on the left side of the keyboard tray for extra stability.

[@raptorman0]

Iarwain Ben-adar had mine two years now,, excellent 😀

[@storkman]

Do you use yours for racing simulation? If so , have you had issues with shifter mount plate moving on you while racing like Jayz demonstrates in video? Just curious if you found a solution for that or created a fix for that. It is kinda frustrating that company didn't include mounting holes etc for the shifter plate.

[@raptorman0]

storkman no, flight simulation. I do play driving games but with a flappy paddle f1 wheel

Great video but please bear in mind, you have an international audience. The whole "Murica" thing is crass and unnecessary. Talk about the tech, critique the quality, leave the nationalism for lesser beings.

[@xenonram]

Archibald Octavion It's his channel, and the way he feels. he is an American... in America... on an American platform... get over it. it's not like he said anything bad about other nationalities. So tired of libtards that get mad when someone shows any sort of national pride. "Hey you can't have national pride, it might hurt someone's feelings. we need to make this a safe space that doesn't make anyone feel left out."

[@Skellist]

Haha I know what you mean. When he said "made in America so that's good" I thought to myself, "did fill it with as many GMOs and steroids as possible?"

[@sparkplug1018]

Get over it, I'm fairly certain that there are many German and English people who take pride that Mercedes and Jaguar (respectively) are made in their countries. Jay supports workers in his home country, how on Earth is that a bad thing?

[@lionhardt75]

Archibald Octavion I read your comment before watching the video, so I paid attention, listening carefully for Jay saying "Murica". I didn't hear it anywhere. If I missed it, I would appreciate a timestamp so I can find it. The only reference to the US I heard was Jay saying that the product is made in America, and that's a good thing. If that's what you're referring to, are you suggesting that a calmly spoken statement highlighting one company's efforts to not outsource jobs is "crass and unnecessary", and is a result of nationalism? I am aware that many countries are struggling with keeping manufacturing jobs as more and more move to China. This problem is not unique to America, and understanding this problem is not a result of nationalism or being a "lesser being".

[@DeFunnyMau5]

Archibald Octavion Listen, if it had been made in a Germany, England, or Canada, he would've been fine. We are just concerned about it being made in China or Vietnam.

For the shift mount, you can drill some holes and use a metal pin (like they have on beach/porch umbrellas) instead of nuts and bolts for quick removal.

Great video man new sub here look forward to more

[@1AMERICANWORKER]

Years ago there was a game called Dirt track racing. Our state of the art controller was the Force feedback wheel and pedals made by Microsoft. Since I was driving racecars on dirt and paved ovals I wanted something that felt more like a real car. Back then the only way was to build it yourself. I had been buying stuff from guys getting out racing , keeping what I could use or reselling so I had a lot of parts laying around doing nothing , so I built a custom set up using these parts and the force feedback wheel. After welding up a cockpit modeled after an I.M.C.A. modified I dug thru my parts bin to find a Butlerbuilt seat ( slightly bent in a wreck , no longer safe) 5 point belts that were past their service date. I then took the pots out of the pedal box and hooked them up to a set of Willwood racing pedals and mounted them to a plate that allowed them to be adjusted. I removed the wheel from the control box , made an adapter to move the box about halfway between the pedals and the dash. The adapter allowed me to mount a removable racing wheel and all I had to do was wire the buttons to the racing wheel It was the only way I had to "race" in the winter. I sold it with the house. Still regret doing that.

Nice setup Jay - though I 'd also be interested in what your boss thinks about it ;-)

Nice vid as usual

This stuff is so amazing! Thanks for teaching me this! (;

So sick. I'd kill for a set up like this, all you need is the G-load simulator and you're set!

I've had this for about 2 years now. Very comfortable, very adjustable. My only issue is wiring, it is hard to put the wires through the tubing. Otherwise great purchase.

I have this G27 but I barely use it any more due to not having much space. I'd love a dedicated racing setup like that, so I can hop in and out easily :). Eh, maybe some years later.

love my revolution. The seat sucks tho. just changed my seat out this year modding it allowing the seat base to tilt up/down. Ive also modded the shifter mount so it sits low like a real car with a Thrustmaster TH8A hard mounted.
