Man this video would be awesome if you recorded with like those rayban glasses with the camera on it so we could see what it looks like from your view

[@WhiteG60]

What they need to add is some sort of fan that blows in relation to the speed the car is moving. Even if you end up putting a helmet on, you'd still feel it and it would help with the sensation I think. Shouldn't even cost that much to add.

[@TheCarDoc1]

100%, that would definitely add to the immersion factor!

[@HesDeadJim]

Simlab has this, can be done extremely cheap with an arduino

[@HesDeadJim]

@@WhiteG60 agreed. I use even a basic non-speed control fan when I'm iRacing in VR... It's a must imho

[@GabsARV]

I know for sure that there are some programmable fans in the market although I think they're just ventilation fans that don't make winds beyond 100km/h. You'd need something big and powerful to truly experience F1. (Minus the G-forces). I mean, if you're buying a sim for over 100k then budget won't be an issue for you to get your hands on it.

[@vesarotv]

It is an option if the customer requests this feature ;)

[@fastmclaren71]

A VR head set with this, would be more immersive than 3 screens.

[@TheCarDoc1]

Agreed in someways, although it removes the spectacle of an unnecessary full sized F1 car 😅

[@MaxskiSynths]

@@fastmclaren71 Yeah I didn't quite word it correctly. What I mean is, might aswell not even have most of this setup if you're just going to use a VR headset. Being in a tight space and having the engine noise behind your head would be cool though.

[@bassbinhauler552]

For real, I like my triple setup at home better that only uses 27 inch monitors. Cause when I'm in it, the screens dominate my peripheral vision

[@LeviAckerMAN-o.o]

All i could think about while watching this was how does he see. I honestly think they should just move those monitors just over the first 2 wheels and that should solve everything, even if it does kill the whole "having an F1 car" vibe, for actual use it would be so much better

[@Soviaat]

I think 2x 34" inch UWQHD monitors would look better and would give far nicer immersion. Even 3 would be insane

[@jamescoker822]

I'd get the same effect parking my fiesta behind a triple screen and getting my missus to rock it about a bit.

[@Colin_Holloway]

The whole system needs to be on a moving platform that tilts 45° in all directions to simulate the braking, acceleration and side loads on the driver. That combined with a weighted helmet, would give an awesomely realistic sim experience!

[@u982245]

you ever driven a car that tilts 45 degrees ?

[@Colin_Holloway]

@@u982245 No, but tilting a sim at 45° gives 1.414 G side loading which can simulate the 4 Gs an F1 driver feels when cornering!

[@u982245]

how can 1.4 g simulate 4g ? its 1.4 g and the force you would feel is 1.4 not 4 , it would only simulate a 1.4 g corner @@Colin_Holloway

[@dodoz44]

@@u982245 The screens would tilt with it, you'd just end up feeling the forces without any confusion. Of course, it would need some blacked out background so your immersion isn't ruined.

[@myacidninjatheamazing1025]

and maybe a way to hold you back when accellerating at high G forces that these can get and make the braking extremely difficult like a real F1 car

[@RJYOUNG396]

I'm glad real F1 cars don't have that much body roll! That's the only thing that looks really off to me. I'm sure it's for the feel of the car, but just looks weird.

[@vesarotv]

It does also simulate G-Forces as you guessed :)

Would be awesome if it had some system to turn the front wheels when you're turning the wheel too. That little extra bit of extra immersion. Maybe make them turn a little too, just so they're not stationary when at speed.

[@Quostado]

Would be difficult because the wheel isn’t actually attached to the wheels, it is attached to the wheelbase

[@dodoz44]

@@Quostado Nah, just needs a little motor connected to some simplified uni-tie rod controlling the wheel movement by going side to side (forward and reverse on the motor). Controlled by some simple controller, that just transfers the steering wheel inputs from pc into the movement of the motor. Lil simple programming. A bit like steer by wire system I guess? Or an RC car steering.

[@BunsterBox]

I think a better way to feel more immersed is to get a vr headset like a pimax crystal or varjo headsets but what you have there is insane!

[@vesarotv]

This customer also has a Varjo Aero - you can see the sensors above the 2 outer screens ;)

[@TheRealMafoo]

The problem with VR, is you don't see the rest of the car, or your hands, or the wheel... etc. I love VR, and use it a lot, but not as much for sim racing as I thought I would.

Imagine a vr headset to that

[@hesher.]

You also need to place a powerful fan in front of your face to simulate wind

[@vorazc]

As an idea to go one step forward: you can build a helmet and a seat with a belt sistem (for the body better something like a blanket around you from the waist to the lower chest than a belt) that pulls you towards the F1 headrest and seat according to acceleration to create a luck of simulation of the Gforces in your body.

[@Quostado]

Vesaro do actually make belts like that, they pull when you brake so you feel like you’re being pushed forward

[@matteorizzi487]

we could take a V12 engine and put it in the car to increase realism, and replace the screen with an actual track, that would be perfect

[@THE_MASTER46]

Why have three screens when you can have a vr-headset and a motorcycle helmet?

[@inforamaAI]

Driving without G forces is like you weating a beef burger without the beef. Whether you are seating on your chair or inside the fibreglass rig, you can't notice much of a difference.

[@VanillaMidgetSSBM]

That "Home racing simulator" title needs an asterisk

[@BIGGIERAT99]

“It does feel quite realistic”😂 3:25

[@noiJadisCailleach]

Besides a fan right in front of you, they should've also added another moving plane underneath the car. Its DOF is only limited to simulate the incline and angle of the plane the car is on. If we're spending that much on a sim just for immersion, i don't see why i wouldn't want to be adding something like that.

[@stanleykeeler4495]

One way to increase the immersion would be to go to a track and then remove the screens and mod the car so the wells will tune and bring you around the track, resulting in a more immersive sensation.

[@octavelapize6657]

[@Frag2xx5]

this setup would be the best if it had a vr. if it had a vr you could wear it while driving so you feel like you really are in a f1 and the games you can look around.

[@gh-bg1uc]

If he found a a way to put monitors on the cockpit that would like mold to the cockpit so you couldn’t see the outside world yet you can still see the inside of the car and some fans so it feels a little bit windy depending on speed feel like it would be a hard task but worth the fun

0:28 Hoping halo is goofy add on? Or tells me it’s not a serious sim? You can’t have a 3D object with a 2d background and somehow have it be the same experience. There is a reason why sim games do that, because the visual cortex does it for us… but not if it’s a real f’n halo lol

[@wolfinthesno]

as cool as that is, i think i would take a chair strapped to the motion sim, a cheaper wheel, pedals, and a vr headset.... Personally. The thing that strikes me is the three monitors are VERY far from the cockpit. The whole time i was wondering what the monitors looked like from inside the cockpit, and i am sure its a bit better when you are actually seated there, but from what i could see it looked like the monitors just had a ton of white space surrounding them. If your going for immersion, you really do not need the car around you with a good vr head set.

[@PositronicDiscombobulator]

The thing with these motion rigs is that it seems as though it might be weird that the car is rolling left when the car turns right, like it has bad suspension. Makes sense for a bike sim though but developers don't understand, or it's impossible to implement counter steering. 🤷‍♂

[@DewinVega]

For $100K it better come with it's own Pitt Crew and 5 year warranty with full service.

First time watching your content and thought it was a 1M+ subs size channel because of the production value🤭

[@mbp7060]

If the wheels rolled that would be an experience. I plan to have this experience one day.

[@The_Joshuan_Empire]

now imagine this but nascar, in the air, and able to turn to give the TRUE best feeling, like console attached where the windshield would be, imagine how cool it would be if you were in a nascar game and start flipping, you would FEEL your body flipping with the car, imagine how cool and terrifying that would be, and i think if someone with like 50 million dollars/pounds tries this, i think it's not that far fetched!

[@evo2344]

fov is all wrong, monitors should be inbetween front wheels and halo, with front wheels appearing on screen connecting you to the virtual road, whilst being fully immersed with the wrap around screen, not being able to distinguish you are in a garage, nice thought though

[@djjoelb48]

lol you sure can feel all the turns in that sim... those g forces must be staggering

[@iconiccfs]

the one thing that is missing is a gforce simulating system, i know some simutaler use a helmet with a string system that simulates cforces on your head

[@TheCarDoc1]

oh really? Can you link me to one of those? I'd be quite interested!

[@clueless4085]

Some have pads inside the car that squeeze you one way or the other to "simulate" g-force. Can't remember what the rig is or who makes it. Think I saw it on Driver61 or Jimmy Broadbent's channel. @@TheCarDoc1

[@WyattChurp]

Should have hydraulically actuated level adjustments under each wheel connected to the suspension giving it elevation that would give you the real feel of a track

[@mr.meatsoup5639]

Car moving side to side without the screens moving is actually unrealistic with an f1 car. The suspension of an F1 car does not sway near that much, it looks like it sways even more than a normal road car would. A far better solution would be to have a multiaxis g force cockpit with VR goggles. This looks cool, but not in practice.

[@DropDMurphy]

Changing the tires would be a PITA if you had to do it in your livingroom.

All that to run 3 monitors, they need to use a project system to do that chassis justice.

[@karliskalviss1381]

for immersion purposes, You don't need the back of the car, and If you simulate a little g-force feedback with motion, the screens (or at least the picture) should move with the chassis. This is just for a show, so the people who look at driver are more entertained than the driver by adding all that.

[@TheCarDoc1]

Hmm, I agree, but it was seriously fun still! I'd love to have just the half of the car too. It's a statement piece when you have the whole thing I guess haha

Tbh it's not that realistic because a F1 car doesnt bend that much when they're on corners, if they car's floor or even sidepods would hit the ground or kerbs and damage is done. That setup actually better for WRC simulation maybe people there just do that way to show you how can this setup does.
