I'm surprised you're getting that much flex from the pedal deck. I've been using a preproduction version of this cockpit for months with a set of CSL Pedals (load cell brake), applying around 60kg of force when braking with only a tiny bit of visual flex. Certainly, nothing that can be felt. Around how many kg of force are you pressing those Thrustmaster pedals with?

How could I have cancelled my order when it was already delivered to me with a defect and it took Fanatec nearly 2 months just to reply to my first email asking them for help???? How the heck is that just an opinion? It is fact! Just because 95% are happy with their orders doesn't mean that the 5%...or even 1% who may not be satisfied should be ignored. You may want to really rethink your outlook on how a businesses should treat their customers. It is a FACT that Fanatec has pissed off a lot of people, and they deserve to be called out for it by the very customers that they wronged. If you felt that you were screwed over by a company that you did business with, how would you feel if someone just laughed at your situation, telling you that others were happy dealing with that business, so it;s just your opinion that you think that you were wronged? Seriously, do some deep thinking before you cast judgement on others plights. Peace.

The amount of hate this thing gets is hilarious. How many are out in the wild that have actually been used to garner so much? I've got one. It's good. I'm a big dude with long legs and arms and it fits me well. I do manual labor for a living and have my whole life so I'm in fairly good shape. I run my DDPro wheel at full ffb and it doesn't even begin to flex. I don't know what happened in this video with the pedal plate but mine absolutely does not flex like this does. CSL with load cell pedals set to 70 in the Fanatec menu and it just doesn't do this. My rug underneath is thin and I guess maybe that helps but if the bolts aren't loose there are other issues either with assembly or manufacture. I've got probably 15 hours on mine at this point. Seat is surprisingly comfortable although I prefer a slightly more reclined position, this one is neutral enough to be comfortable. I will say that they should just include a seat slider as the one I installed on mine is significantly better than the Fanatec seat interface. It also raises the seat just a little which is nice. It's also got a footprint that's about the same as my playseat challenge so if space is a limiting factor for someone, this thing is great. Not trying to be contrary here, just offering my experience with this because all the armchair quarterbacks seem to not give it a fair shot. Fanatec definitely misses the mark in many ways for many people, but to call this rig junk is hilarious. It's great for the price, especially if a profile rig doesn't work for you for whatever reason. Options are a good thing and breed competition.
@Bakufan1984

Thanks for sharing your experience and the kind words. Fanatec will offer seat sliders as well, at a very competitive price point, just needs a little while. Reason to not include it is that not everyone needs it, so why should the entry price be raised for everybody due to parts some may not need?

Ill be honest.. this seems like a last ditch effort kinda product. Seems a lot of money for a rig when you can get a gt omega prime lite for under $1000, hell the prime is $1200.. both have all the same extras, but is infinitely adjustable, and the seats leather with sliders and adjustable rake.. and those are forever rigs.. If you didn’t want to spend that much you would just buy something like the NLR rig for $400 !

Why Fanstec are putting time and money into a new product rather than concentrating on all of their current issues with stock, tech support and public relationships baffles me. Plus on top of that they are putting out a product that is vastly overpriced in the market.

waaaaaay too many bolts holding all this tubular stuff together. I would imagine there is a fair amount of wobble and weak points because of this. For the price range you’re better off going to a lower price aluminum profile rig

Certainly a lot of bolts and I did find myself re-tightening the wheel plate and pedal mount a few times. For the price I can understand why though.

Don't you see or don't you want to see that the front leg is sinking into the carpet (even 10 cm around). Do you expect the pedal plate to float in the air and offer resistance? See again and again and again ... 8:50 The shifter mount is much better than many other cockpits (example) kzbin.info/www/bejne/m32UYmikgM-SaK8

The bolt holes on the feet are interesting. Makes me wonder if there is some future plans for motion platforms or some other mounting solution for upgradability. This is the one thing that has enticed me, looking for a compact living room PSVR rig.

@@Eskoxo that was the point in the comment. If they’re working with another manufacturer to provide a proprietary motion platform, which is the only use case for those bolt holes, it could be a compelling option if you’re looking for something cheaper and more compact. My current rig takes up nearly an entire home office-sized room and costs close to $18k. If I want something to run in a living room or for the corner of another bedroom, having a small and manageable motion platform is a good option.

@@Eskoxo what are you talking about? No one is saying it will be a $6000 full motion platform. It’s not likely to be a DBox or DK2. It’s more likely to be something along the lines of the slip angle, or a traction loss platform. Are you okay, man?
