[@TJRSIM]

Hey sim racers. Leave your comments and/or questions below. I really do think this might be one of the best wheel bases for the money ATM on the market. Feel free to check them out at your favorite dealer i my affiliate linktree links here: linktr.ee/tjrsim Thanks for helping the channel🤙

Welcome aboard the Alpha U train! I subscribed to your channel several years ago when I got an Accuforce V2 and found your stuff helpful but I swapped to the Alpha U a little over a year ago and LOVE it! This thing is a powerhouse and felt great day one but has gotten even better with updates over time.

@@Jpilgrim30 awesome! Thanks for watching again. Glad to hear about the switch. I should have done it long ago as well. lol. Now I know what I was missing. 👍

[@asSIMuNation]

Wow thanks. Please post the same on other social groups if you can... it seems a lot of folks don't realize how deep the software goes relative to others. This makes a huge difference.

I love mine. There is 1 truely special thing about it that I haven't been able to relicate with any other base. The suspension feel ans correction to loss of grip. The snap man oh man. Idc what any company says there slew rate is the speed of the simagic wheelbase is special for sure. To me the most important thing in sim racing is feeling the weight transfer of the car and the loss of grip that's the 2 things that are most important and that's where simagic is most special. Also I can't imagine anybody wanting more detail the ultimate details are so intense it can shake my rig lol. Like I can feel it throughout very potent when they come through. Love it! Simagic has made massive massive gains in software over the years making this wheelbase feel 10x better then it ever has before. It's very very clear where simagic placed there time and they made the best choices imo for racers. It's why I hate reviews from people like will who only ever talks about curbs and details like that he never talks about the loading and unloading of a wheelbase, the suspension, tire slip and more. Its like dude all of these bases have details now the most important parts aren't being covered lol. Thank you for bringing up these things like edge of grip because that is the magic of simagic.

Thanks for sharing. I agree 💯 I really don’t think I would feel much more with say the Asetek wheelbase over this one. I really don’t need to either. Plus this eco system has it all. Very quality shifters IMO and handbrakes and pedals. Really the complete package, but catered to enthusiasts not entry level sim racers. 👍

Would love a video on the software configuration setup. The one you did for sim commander was fantastic.

[@TJRSIM]

@@bobboberton1841 thanks man. Yeap I’ll creat one. Hopefully it will help

Related to firmware, my experience lately shows that SimPro prompts you with a large window and message about the fact that there is a newer firmware option available. You can Update or Cancel at that point as is appropriate. I do agree that some flag in the main screen could be nice, but they seem to have a very large alert upon opening which I think covers that need well at present.

I ended up buying the Simagic Alpha , which is all I need. I drove the Simucube 2 Sport it was good but didn't want to spend that much. What shocked me was the Logitech G PRO. My friend bought a open box one for $700. The force feedback was shocking good!!

[@bobboberton1841]

For some reason I am having issues dialing in the feel of losing the front end. It doesn't seem to lighten up as much as it did on the Accuforce. Any suggestions?

[@TJRSIM]

@@bobboberton1841 Not know your setting it may be hard to tell. But I would recommend turning off Mechanical damper, friction and inertia. Then make sure wheel rotation speed is 100. These all will slow down the wheel rotation. Then turn up feedback detail to max but leave smoothness to zero until you feel the front sliding and can identify it doing that. Then you can then turn up smoothness to suite your desire depending on the sim your playing you may not need smoothness up.

which options do you use for ASSETTO CORSA?

[@TJRSIM]

@@grzegorzjur1765 I don’t play AC that much anymore. However I did some testing for an hour yesterday and have some that feel good to me. I’ll make a vid today about it. Will be short and to the point for people to check out.

[@grzegorzjur1765]

@@TJRSIM I will have a big request if you test Ac and see what's good there for ULTIMATE let me know I'll be waiting :) Regards

[@AL.farmlife]

what they need is ffb eq which moza have it❤

[@TJRSIM]

Yeah I was thinking that would be cool as well. To sort out what you really want to feel more of. 👍 Just gives people choices to work the FFB to their liking.

[@grzegorzjur1765]
