Old school Monsters with the new AW Hyper Shift

[@DanDiMaggio]

100% the best production value in all of sim racing! We are very lucky to have you Sir!

[@chepilevski]

Wow, thank you for the supportive words Dan 🤗 It means the world to me brother

[@DanDiMaggio]

@@chepilevski For sure Dude! You're absolutely killing it! There's no way someone runs across one of your videos and doesn't want to get into sim racing right after!

@ that’s all I need to hear man ❤️

[@kaczy5289]

the immersion of your setup is crazy man!

[@chepilevski]

Thanks brother 🤗

I wasn't concentrating at 9:41 and the landing jolted me back to this corporeal plane XD This is so cool I'd love to see the inner mechanism

[@bartoszszarko8785]

Nice to see polish stuff in your channel.

[@chepilevski]

Man, polish engineers are brilliant 💪 The Motion and the seat belts tensioner are Polish too 😃

[@ma14.27]

That's probably the coolest shifter on the market now. The price is sadly not an option for me, but it's cool to see more products on the market.👍

[@benstechbytes]

Your rig is amazing! It helped inspire my rig build that I just posted a video about on my channel.

[@DeePunter]

Great driving!

[@chepilevski]

Thanks buddy 🍻 Tons of fun 😃

[@kristaps2010]

I wish you had shown cockpit view 3 most interesting parts of track - carusel, jump and 2nd carusel. Many thanks for sharing

Man 🙈 I was randomly cutting and now you mention it i can’t believe I did that 🤔🙈

Looking forward to the SRP reviews 😂😂😂❤ so happy theyre sending you some goodies.

Man, those are seating on my heart for quite some time 😁

@chepilevski I'm holding off on my pedals purchase till I hear your thoughts on them legend. Have a stellar week Stel man. ✨️

[@frankzappa2274]

Oh man, this is the shifter for me!!!!.. With the price right now it is so tempting ....BUT until my Fanatec H pattern sequential dies again I need to wait haha. Ouch! I'm so tempted

[@chepilevski]

We will end broke with that sim racing bug one day brother 😄

[@BountyV]

What an amazing piece of hardware! Seeing this video I can fully understand their asking price. That being said, the price is entering into "I want an active shifter" territory. I can't expect any new shifter on the market to get much more expensive than this without being active somehow. I currently have the SHH Shifter Thorn H+Seq combo shifter and for the price point there is no comparison on the market. Easily beats Fanatec, which is really its only competitor for 'entry' level hybrid shifter. I paid $140usd shipped and feel I got a lot of value for my money. You are spot on with the issues and set backs, and while it isn't an authentic shifting feel or experience when compared directly to a real car, for entry level PC shifter, it is unbeatable for the price. My subjective problem is similar to yours, in that sure I could one day upgrade to Simagic or whatever, but they have the problems you describe, and for the price I don't feel it is big enough upgrade from my SHH Shifter Thorn to justify. This new shifter is a great addition to the market. Again the price is understandable, I just can't justify it without wanting to spend a bit more for active shifter (like the kit bash you did a video on a while back), or waiting for more active shifters to hit the market. The use case, primarily being 'old school' cars, makes it unlikely to see a big name like Simucube develop such a product, so it is up to others like Simagic, Sim Labs, Moza, etc. to further innovate and expand this side of the sim racing market. As always, big thank you for covering all the incredible new products hitting market, and all the incredible new innovations being introduced to the magical world of sim racing. My dad passed away yesterday (early onset Alzheimer's) and this video has helped cheer me up.

[@chepilevski]

Sorry for your loss brother I know how it feels 😔

Have you seen the Aiologs silent sq shifter? can't wait for a proper review on it as i'm courious to see if it's that much quieter than what we have until now! 🥳😁

[@chepilevski]

That’s interesting 😃 I want to see ( hear) what silents sound like 😁

[@SIMRIG412]

@@chepilevskiit’s not silent from what I hear! It’s very minimal.

[@sleit0n]

@@chepilevski well, that's how they call it 😁

[@przemekprzemek343]

Great channel. I was thinking before going AW tau sequential V2 plus simagic for hpattern (in total similar price to this 2in1). How would you compare hpattern and sequential feeling of them compared to this 2in1 that you are testing right now?

[@AresGenesis]

Great review, as always! I'm planning to build a set of DIY active pedals and have a couple of questions. First, is it possible to perform heel-and-toe on them? I haven’t seen anyone mention this in the reviews. Secondly, is it worth including an active clutch pedal? I also still need to work on a wind simulator, an active belt tensioner, and a rally button plate from Pokornyi. There are so many useful and entertaining projects to tackle right now! I’ve already built Lebois’s active shifter, and it’s absolutely amazing.

[@chepilevski]

Some crazy projects brother 💪 The active pedals I have here works perfectly in heal and toe technique even if the throttle plate is not optimal. What I did was pushing bit further the brake pedal and making the first part of the throttle input bit more responsive and softer! It helped enormously! About the clutch, I don’t think there is any advantage! Can’t wait to see your project finished 💪

[@AresGenesis]

​@@chepilevski ​ @chepilevski Thank you for the advice! :) Right now, I have a P1000, so I’ll probably start with just the active brake and add the throttle later.

[@MskBzh]

Damn, i already bought the tau v2 sequential shifter and the aiologs H patern when i saw your videos 🤣🤣

[@chepilevski]

Aiologs is the best H shifter I ever felt and the TAU v2 is awesome😄 that is the exact combo I have now on my testing rig now 💪

[@MskBzh]

@chepilevski i'm in love with the aiologs, i always drive with smile when i use it, pure sensation with it

[@FG_SIMRACING]

You don’t have the Simpush Racelogic attached anymore on your simrig…? Any specific reason ? Again Great vid Brother ! 👍

[@chepilevski]

Yeh, because most of the cars I use have race logic and is Christmas anyway around that rid with so many screens around 🙈 I have two race logic like kits but can’t find them useful

[@charlesgutscher1923]

Have you tried the MME hybrid shifter?

[@chepilevski]

Man, I had it in my hands on the expo this year and just was going to give it a proper try I start conversation with the MME guys and missed! It looked really good and I believe must be good as those guys are doing real race cars shifters and must know well want are they doing

[@charlesgutscher1923]

@chepilevski that's why I was curious. This looks really nice. But I've been wanting to pull the trigger and upgrade from my simagic DS8X and TB-1 and I had been really looking at the MME setup. And then this review popped up in my search.

[@chubbs6504]

@@charlesgutscher1923 that MME looks nice would love to see that review as well

[@chepilevski]

@ the guys here have made some last moments changes and said they dumped the sound and I in the full review I will try to explain the shifter more in depth

[@Lukewk1]

Have you ever tried the BDH H1SQ?

[@dauntae24]

I’ve owned one for a few weeks. The sequential mode is very bad. Very loose and mine squeaks on the upshift. No amount of white lithium grease will fix the issue. I ended up getting a Jinx V2 dedicated shifter. It’s a complete monster with great feel and it’s almost completely silent.

[@chepilevski]

I’ve only tested it in the expo last month and felt great in H mod but in SQ is not as good and it stuck in gear if I tide the settings as I’ve said in the video! I loved it however in H mod

[@dauntae24]

@@chepilevskiagreed. I applaud BDH for listening to its customers and developing a hybrid unit but if you’re already buying the BDH for it’s incredible H pattern, you’re probably going to be disappointed in the sequential.

[@TheStarKing9]

Hey, I love your content. I have several questions that I’ll ask quickly: 1. best realistic hydraulic pedal that money can buy? 2. What’s your current pedal setup? 3. Is the Simucube brake better than a hydraulic pedal for realism? 4. What pedal is definitely better than the P2000? Thanks!

[@chepilevski]

In my opinion the most realistic pedals are the SRP pneumatic pedals which I’m testing right now but will need few weeks before release video about it! The Simucube Active can mimic any feeling and in fact I was surprised to feel those SRP felt exactly as I setup the Simucube active and from hydraulic better then the P2000 I can say I personally prefer the P1000 more with the hydraulic kit! But again, the SRP for now are the best I ever felt under my feet in terms of nice progressive feeling just like in real car and the Simucube can mimic whatever we wish 🤛

[@TheStarKing9]

@@chepilevski Awesome, you’re the best. Thanks. So essentially, the Simucube is the best pedal since it can mimic anything?

[@chepilevski]

@@TheStarKing9 no question about it man😃

[@TheStarKing9]

@ did that company also give you the PEDAL VIBRATION KIT? It seems very expensive for two “shakers” and a sound card for €163. If you are reviewing them PLEASE give your thoughts on how they compare with the Simagic haptics.

[@TheStarKing9]

@ do you prefer a load cell throttle for its accuracy or a hydraulic throttle for its natural feel? Also, do you feel there’s an insignificant amount of response and accuracy between the two for it to really make a difference?

Hi man love the vids one question tho, what’s the best handbrake in your opinion?

[@chepilevski]

Hey buddy, they all can be good enough if set properly! I like both from Simagic and the AW which can be adjusted very well but in the next few weeks will start testing the SRP ( sim racing Pro) which promises to be the best with that unique system!

[@romkeveenstra4820]

@@chepilevskiI’m on the simagic eco system so i think I’ll get one of them witch ones better the tb-rs or the tb-1

this shifter or the Bash Pro Active H-Shifter?

[@sprocket5526]

Yikes, did you see the price???

[@chepilevski]

Bash pro is totally different experience with the active lock but the SQ mod is not useful for me at all !

[@jansamal9890]

Hi there, great content as always man:-) I’ve got a question about the loudness, can you compare it with Simagic Q1S and Bash Pro? I sold my Simagic, because I didn’t much like it(I love my other Simagic stuff) and the noise was very loud. Now I have Bash and oh my… it’s excellent and noise is as well acceptable. My friend is looking for something good and cheaper than my Bash, but loudness is one of the factors(he sold his Q1S too). Thank for your answer, cheers from Czech Republic:))

[@chepilevski]

I just send it back for noise improvement as the gays from AW told me they found the way to dump the noise and hopefully will got it next week and test how it sounds! After that first test however I would say is as loud as the Simagic with that metallic echoing sound! Let’s see what will that be with the new improvements 🤛

[@jansamal9890]

@ thanks!! Looking forward to what they come up with💪

[@sprocket5526]

Saw it mentioned a couple of places, thought it was vapour ware since was no reviews of it, and only a 3D rendering on their page. 560 euros is a bit much for me, even though it looks like excellent quality. Probably not that easy to compete against something like mass produced the simagic shifter Hopefully they will do well, competition is always welcome.

[@chepilevski]

Yeh man, its hard to compete with the Simagic that’s true but is also good as who knows what where going to be the prices without Simagic pushing the market 😃

[@tbGTR]

Just rewatched your o-rouge cold fusion seat review. You loved your old rs7 seat and you seemed to love the cold fusion and say it was easy to reccomend. You mentioned the gt pad seat although it looked amazing was a pain in the ass. How come the sabelt seat has stayed on your rig? Sponsorship deal or??? Tempted to buy the cold fusion seat but curious as to why you aren’t using it. Thanks 🙏🏻

[@chepilevski]

I’m with the cold fusion still on my rig buddy, just added the GT-Pads from Sabelt and the Sabelt GT-Pad seat is on my testing rig ! I have to do second video about it the cold fusion after full Sommer of use and is the seat indeed I prefer to keep on my main rig! For now I think I lost like 20% of the wind stream but I really spent enormous hours on that seat as I’m also editing videos for hours all the time 😁 Nothing really have changed of my original opinion from that video and it goes exactly as I expected! Fans still can pass air trough the pats 😃

[@tbGTR]

@ amazing. That’s great to hear. When you say you lost 20% airflow…is that due to depredation or because you added the gt pad seat pads on top?

[@chepilevski]

@ the GT pads are applied cosmetically and strategically to not cut the flow but seating on the original pads which are specifically designed to let air trough got compressed in the first few weeks and lost like little airflow but that’s it! It still doesn’t make difference as I was using it on scale 3 out of 6 and was filling bit too much air movement around my lower back! Now from November i haven’t even needed to use the cooling but in the summer was quite helpful in the very hot days even if i still sweated when was over 30c 😄

[@tbGTR]

@ have you seen the company Racetech have a sim seat now with an air port on the rear. Similar to their full fia seats but made specifically for sim racing. Defo worth checking out as they are high quality.

[@chepilevski]

@ must check that out 😮

[@BRANDON.MUSTANG]

Hey buddy i would like to see review from you fanatec handbrake v2. Is that mayby possible?

[@xXPokisXx]

This is bad. Because I was already decided on simagic DS-8X, but now this... This shifter looks better and from what i could imagine feels better. So question: Simagic DS-8X or AW Hyper Shift? After this video I'm leaning towards AW. :D AW is around 700eu and DS-8X 450eu. Now I'm using TH8A shifter. So either one would be upgrade.

[@gingersnaps7186]

Would you say this shifter is better than the Pro Sim H-Pattern shifter? Sadly I had to sell mine due to some unforeseen circumstances. Great driving btw

[@chepilevski]

Hey man, I haven’t tested the Pro Sim H to compare directly but this one feels good in H mod and the main advantage is the SQ mod which feels like dedicated sequential shifter 🤛

[@gingersnaps7186]

@@chepilevskiawesome thanks for your reply! I’ve currently got an Ailogs sequential shifter on my rig at the moment but I really miss having an H-Pattern shifter. Definitely going to pick this one up

[@franckk0676]

hi, congratulations for your videos! if you had to choose, would you buy the dsx-8 at 380€ or the aw for 600€, is the price difference justified for you between the 2, thank you

[@chepilevski]

It depends on you how much you want to use the SQ mod! If sequential shifting will be your priority the definitely go for the AW because the DX won’t ever fully satisfy you! If the H- mod is what you gonna use then the DX worth saving some cash as it feels very good and probably as god as the AW! Just think about that and you will figure out what will work best for you 🤛

[@franckk0676]

@chepilevski thank you, m'y priority it's the h mod, right ! But i'm afraid about the sequential mod dsx-8 not satisfied me... There are lot of difference vs aw ? And there is 220€ between the 2 shifter ! If you choose one, what shifter you take, thanks ?

[@chepilevski]

@ the I personally take things in life is I try to not think much about the price difference if I can afford because the money I may save in short terms can hurt later but that’s why I’m always broke 😁 I would definitely go for the AW and make sure I’m covered and not think later about it! However, I can’t say if that applies to you as we are all different and what matters is what will give you peace of mind 🤛 Those it 200€ save will make you happier or you will think later “what of” The AW is definitely better gearbox 😃

[@franckk0676]

👍 i think exactly same you ! But aslo i want to know just if the difference of the Price is justified... If the h-mod is the same but the sequential mod is little better in aw shifter so i take the dsx-8, if

[@franckk0676]

Sorry... However if the sequential mod is far better in aw shifter, i take this, it's m'y last question after i bothering you more 😊
