Simagic rig!! Ditched the fanatec junk!!

[@pflynhi]

Looks great! I started phasing out my fanatec crap after my left grip broke on my McLaren rim, so far H-sprints and a Turn Racing 305 rim/Bp2. next to replace my cslDD ; leaning towards the alpha-mini what Simagic distributor did you use?

[@SIMRIG412]

Simshop. Free shipping on orders over $200! They also bundle wheels with the alpha mini to!

[@pflynhi]

@412 Just ordered my mini 😎 update: scratch that., I went with the Alpha 15nm

[@SIMRIG412]

@@pflynhiya I got the alpha. I didn’t need 23nm with alpha u! Loving my alpha

[@ZMillett]

I'm in the same boat, have had Fanatec for years, Simagic seems like the way to go. Rig looks great.

[@SIMRIG412]

Definitely forget fanatec! I’ve had multiple fanatec items and rigs. The simagic is 1 million times better!!

[@SIMRIG412]

Also thank you for the comment the rig is still a work in progress and about to move again. So when I move I’ll have it set up how I want!

[@KillaV91]

Whats a bit annoying, you bash fanatic but don’t really explain why this is better or why fanatec is worse apart from your update issues.

[@SIMRIG412]

I clearly did! I said I had nothing but problems after updating the firmware!! Both my wheels wouldn’t register after multiple attempts to reinstall everything nothing worked! I got tired of there overpriced mid grade junk! It’s 2024 and fanatec is way behind in wheels and everything else. Plus it’s my review and my money that paid for everything I own so I can bash what I want. I had multiple fanatec rigs and items and spent over $5000 at fanatec over the years.

[@natedawg.reviews]

I'm about to upgrade from g920 to the moza r9 bundle

[@SIMRIG412]

Very nice. Look in to a simagic alpha mini bundle! Way better quality and nicer wheels than moza. But if you like moza I’m not trying to say don’t buy it! I just think simagic is the way to go. Or simucube if you have thousands you want to waste money. I’ve owned Logitech,thrustmaster,3 different fanatec bases,simucube 2 sport and now simagic and to be honest simagic is my favorite so far

[@_pjd]

I am also moving to Simagic from Fanatec. I'm looking for a tutorial on how to mount the Simagic QR to a GSI wheel. Is it easy to mount to any wheel? Thank you for the video.

[@SIMRIG412]

Is only 6 screw so pretty easy. I never used it on a gsi wheel so I’m not sure how easy it is to mount. Sorry I can’t help

[@101wilku101]

GT7 is going to work with this ? No - to bad

[@SIMRIG412]

Who cares about gt7 😂 im on pc where I get real sims not fake arcade like gt7. Have a ps5 and gt7 and had psvr2 for it and sold it no big deal to me

[@sigmacortex-bb2vd]

GT7 works with it... In fact it works with it brilliantly with sigma converter that's exclusively for SIMAGIC so you get the best FFB experience.

[@SIMRIG412]

@@sigmacortex-bb2vdyes I seen these and thought about it! But it’s pointless for the price just to play gt7 at least to me. I own a pc and basically own every sim game there is so console sim racing is just a joke! But to each their own they way I look at it is play what makes you happy!

[@mra091666]

Great to see a no bull crap video which is straight to the point. I also have been with Fanatec when I began my DD adventure but due to the technical issues, replacement nightmare along with horrible customer service I decided to move on myself. I have started to invest in Simagic products but I will have a few other vendors items on my rig as I already purchased the VNM Simulation V1 3 pedal set which is beefy and rivals Heusinkveld Ultimates at a much lower cost.

[@SIMRIG412]

Very nice! Ya fuck fanatec! Thanks for the support and do you have a channel showing your rig off? I’d love to see it

[@tetley3737]

In the process of ditching Fanatec too. Bought quite a bit from them, but after the Black Friday fiasco I lost my patience with them. Ever heard of customer service? They haven't...

[@SIMRIG412]

One of the reasons i was over fanatec to is delayed shipping and waiting time as they have my $

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

Looking mean!

[@SIMRIG412]

Thank you. Still not done putting everything together yet. And will be moving again so will have to tear it all done to rebuild it.

[@SIMRIG412]

Only things i need now! Handbrake for next to h pattern shifter DDU screen for above my wheelbase Maybe a button box Seq shifter on preorder And one day motion if prices ever come down. Not worth the $$$ to me

[@SleepyPantsSimRacing]

@SIMRIG412 ya prices are still crazy for motion, seems like motion should cost no more than like 1000 dollars based on how simple the devices are but maybe one day.

[@SIMRIG412]

@@SleepyPantsSimRacingya that’s why I haven’t got it yet! For $1000 I definitely would buy one

[@pessima_rbx]

i tried this one simagic rig at a carshow and ngl i kind of want a simagic wheel now but ion got money so i just have a t300rs i ended up getting the 4th fastest time there btw but there were no prizes 💀

[@SIMRIG412]

Good job! And any wheel works it’s all about the users budget and what they can justify spending money on.

[@001sander2]

Fanatec have great.... marketing

[@SIMRIG412]

Ya marketing but they can’t actually get products out to customers 😂

[@Benedict00_MankoMuncher]

Not just that... CONSOLE support. Because of this I unfortunately have to go with fanatec.

[@SIMRIG412]

Ya I’m on pc

[@AL.farmlife]

believe me you just replace with another headache 😂

[@SIMRIG412]

No I really didn’t but think what you want to 🤣 I’ve owned like 10 or 11 full sim rigs over 5-7 years! I’ve tried basically every brand! And was all bought with my own money and never items sent for free or for a review!

[@Benedict00_MankoMuncher]

I'd buy this over fanatec if it had Playstation support

[@SIMRIG412]

You can buy an adapter to make it work on ps5

[@Benedict00_MankoMuncher]

@SIMRIG412 true, I actually pulled the trigger last week lol. I got the alpha and gt1 wheel. Now just frustrated trying to find the best settings for drifting and track.

[@SIMRIG412]

Yes drifting is definitely tricky

[@lstrickland3412]

I did the same thing wasted 1K on Fanatec i hope i can sell it for 400

[@SIMRIG412]

Can definitely sell it on mercari or eBay some how junk ass fanatec holds its value on resale because fanatec never ships out products or some issue 😂

haaaa 😂 moving from simagic sxxx to simucube already replaced shit 1000 pedals frs with VRS pedals!Next SC pro and fcore .btw GT neo is shit quality after using few months only! top right encoder is glitching I doubt that my alpha u will last close to SC pro 😂😂😂 selling all shit too. I should go at first with VRS and simucube.Smart person learning from others mistake but me learn on my own😂😂😂

[@SIMRIG412]

Simucube also has its own problems to lol just because you spend more money doesn’t mean shit. I’ve owned a simucube 2 sport and had issues with it also so nothing is perfect. Plus simucube cost way more for Bluetooth wheels and if not your buy overpriced usb wired wheels! Been there done that also. Plus products come with a warranty so use it!

[@AL.farmlife]

I doubt that my alpha u is close to SC pro very doubt most of the reviews are liers😂😂😂 they pay to say shit😂😂😂

[@SIMRIG412]

Not really! And I don’t get paid I pay for everything myself
