Was just looking through their store and was suprised to see a new wheel so came here to see what was going on, always great reviews for new tech.

[@tarushdei]

That KS wheel is absolutely the perfect entry-level GT racing rim I've ever seen. I have been doing tons of research of what's all available and pricing out what I want for my upgraded rig setup, and was mostly on board with the Moza ecosystem, but that KS wheel just sealed the deal. I wasn't sure I could afford the GS V2 but wanted something along that line, and was leaning towards the Fanatec Mclaren GT3 wheel and ecosystem because of it. Now that's been settled completely. Incredible effort from Moza.

[@daviddries8676]

I have always been keen on Moza, almost went R9, but now r12 + KS is what i would get. The tricky part is that fanatec's deals right now on CSL DD soo good its hard not to go that way

[@-YELDAH]

​@@alissonferreira6163currently waiting for moza's sale tomorrow, specifically after comparing moza and simagic just because the mini is 10nm, only 2 more than the 8nm fanatec, which is a problem when you can get that for well below half the price, and the entry level gt wheel of simagic has grip wear issues... I wanted to go with simagic as i like their more open policy on connectivity but it's just not quite worth the cost of the 15nm, at least in the UK right now

[@Yanmak13]

Great review, as always! Just a quick note on one thing you said: Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) is literally the designation of any part made out of carbon fibre. You have a polymer (the resin that acts like the matrix) reinforced with carbon fibre strands. So, when you see a "real" carbon fibre piece, it is a CFRP piece. Thanks!

[@kevin-l7r7p]

Fair play to Moza I got the R5 Bundle 4/5 Months ago to replace a G920, didn't use the pedals as already had TCLMs. Everything from the ordering, packaging, quality of product, software has all been top notch. The Fanatec stuff was constantly on back order so I went Moza as a 2nd choice but glad I did now. I'm just using a desk mount so going beyond 5NM would probably destroy the desk but if I ever get a proper rig and wanted more strength would defo stick with Moza.

[@hexsapeddy8616]

I’ve been watching your videos over the last couple days before purchasing a rig… and must I say thank you!Your videos are so amazingly helpful, you don’t miss a single detail. You are a amazing KZbinr and I wish all channels were this quality. Stay awesome man

This KS wheel is exactly what I was hoping for. I’m still pretty new to sim racing and just couldn’t justify the price of the other two GT wheels.

[@SeaGLGaming]

"Your move, Fanatec." Says everyone, for the last three years. It's been so long since Fanatec released something new. Waited 2 years for them to release a dashed wheel. I eventually got tired of waiting and got the FSR Wheel when the Moza hub and adapter was released. Love it. Quick release was game changing attached to my DD2, and it's difficult to go back. Been looking at getting another Moza wheel like this one so I don't have to take off the Podium hub and move my pedals and chair around switching to my Fanatec Formula rim. Moza's just been hitting it out of the park with every release. Only thing that's missing is console support. Would also love to see them add Simhub compatibility with their dashes.

Congrats on Microcenter deal. They are top notch! They are not the cheapest in town but we should reward them for actually stocking multiple sim gear brands on their shelves and have a simulator set up to try out the gear! If you live near one, you are doing yourself a disservice not trying them. They stock all the best and gear! GSI, Simucube, Moza, Aestek, etc etc. But for those that keep waiting for Fanatec to release a ~12-5nm DD base, just get the DD1, it is silly how so many people think there needs to be 6 different power level bases available. Buy once, cry once, go for the largest peak/ sustained NMs you can afford because of the extra clipping headroom and better future proof your purchase

[@drchtct]

Hey Will, just wanted to say I like that the sponsor of the video is a store rather than a sim-racing company, improves the reliability and independency for the reviews, hope to see more companies do this, so we can keep seeing these great reviews without you being financially dependent on any competitor in the market Moza wheels look absolutely fantastic, Fanatec and Asetek should take notes on the how to make great looking formula wheels. If I was Asetek I'd stop whatever work I'm doing on rigs right now and get the La Prima bundles out to the reviewers, and speed up a process to release more wheels. If I was Fanatec I'd fire whoever is responsible for the QR2 delay and get a 12-15nm base at a good price out asap. Moza is taking all the glory right now.

[@louiienation8497]

I think I’m going to pull the trigger on the R12! Thank you for this review. Upgraded to an ASR1 rig and now pairing it with Moza R12. Really excited to see how different it’s going to be from My G29 setup.

[@thefrostbyte]

Love to see the Micro Center support. I'm lucky enough to have one near me and their selection and prices are really awesome, and the people are great too. There's nowhere else to really go to see computer hardware, let alone sim hardware, in person. I experienced direct drive for the first time when I was there last weekend and it has me itching to upgrade. The R12 fits the bill really well, so this is tempting for when I upgrade. If Fanatec come out with something in this range though I'll probably go for that since I could then keep my Formula 2.5 wheel with the paddle module that I love. I don't want to settle for 8nm with the CSL DD but the Podium bases are just way too expensive for me. You're right, there's a huge hole in their ecosystem that they should really fill.

[@DaniMacYo]

I’m actually loving this back and forth with these two companies I hope Fanatec do make a move that gamers will like, it helps us customers. If Moza get Console support PS5 for me then I might actually consider them over Fanatec tbh.

[@Gregg4886]

Even if Fanatec do produce a response, good luck getting one and navigating the atrocious customer service and delivery. It’s almost like they don’t actually want you to buy from them sometimes. Eventually got there in the end though! 👍

[@collinweatherholt]

love the shoutout to the Indianapolis MicroCenter opening soon. Indy can't wait!

[@RelaxSimmer]

What I've come to realize with configuring these DD wheel bases for drifting it's all about balancing the FFB power with the dampener settings. You want to have a responsive wheel and that can be achieved by lower FFB Gain but then you have to lower the dampener so the wheel can start rotating as soon as it can. Or you could go high FFB Gain setting but then you have to put a lot of dampening to compensate for the wheel rotating to quickly and being too eratic. Finding the balance is the key and it can depend from person to person some people like it to be low intensity so they can control the drift easier some like it higher. This also depends what wheel rim you're running how wide it is, how heavy etc ... inertia and all that.

[@Michael_Ruiter]

I got the KS from Micro Center as an open box for $80 off and I love it so far, has more than enough for most cars, even the GTPs in iRacing. My MC also had the fancy Moza formula wheel with the screen for $650, the KS felt a lot more comfortable in my hands

[@MrKrampyHands]

Man I own this R12 Moza base it's truly exceptional best decision ever purchasing this guy it pairs well with the CRP pedals and Moza Handbrake and Shifter it's Definitely made a positive improvement in my sim drifting now I don't know what to do with my R5 and Logitech g29 I guess give one to my nephew and sell the other so I can buy another wheel a RS V2 or FSR or even get a QR and my own custom wheel rim for drifting

[@marc-andrehogue114]

Sold my GS V1 and ordered a KS, the shape and handle material is more appealing to me. I did love my GS

[@evantalley4388]

Running an R5 base currently, and finding out the KS wheel is a bit lighter than the ES wheel, and nearly as light as with the formula wheel mod, this should be absolutely great even on the R5! Found my next upgrade, along with the 12 inch wheel mod instead of the formula 😅

[@migueldebrito7943]

[@scorps0326]

Ordered the KS! I have been waiting for this budget wheel ever since getting my R9 / CS / SRP set 12 months ago. It's great when companies listen to thier customer base and deliver at such a high level. Especially for the cost!

[@Jstcruisin]

@boosted media from my experience the disconnection issue mainly comes from drifting as i experience it on my r9. i seem to have narrowed it down to the hands off protection in the firmware, this has not always been a issue and i have only noticed it in the last few months. with hand off protection disabled i have no longer had any disconnection issues

[@that44rdv4rk]

I do hope this puts some pressure on fanatec to release a base in between the 8nm cslDD and tthe DD1 ( maybe with the same boost pack approach as the DD with options for, let's say, 10nm or 15nm)

[@aogsimracing5663]

Bought the KS wheel along with the universal hub, happily using it with my Cammus base. The lightness of the KS has really improved the detail felt through the Cammus.

Great review . It looks like I’ll need to save up just a little longer. Also I like the micro center support. Me and my son often make a yearly 6hr drive to our nearest micro center.

Wow I recently ordered the R12 for $589 US. Didn't know it was a price drop from the then $649 R9, which is now $439. Got the $279 KS wheel compared to a $519 Cube F Core. Great deal Moza

[@Zeniph00]

The wheel side to side wiggle is a item to item variance from what I can tell. My brother and I both bought the original R9 with GS wheel, his does not have the wiggle but mine does. I do not notice during racing. I suspect it has something to do with how the milling on either the base shaft connection point, or parts of the quick disconnect itself. I have yet to actually measure to find out, but I suspect it is a variance that could be accounted for by a part getting too hot during milling and expanding.

[@boostedmedia]

Yep just like with Fanatec it would be down to the percentage of tolerance in the sleeve and shaft. THat said, I've observed far less variance with Moza than Fanatec with regards to the QR. All my Moza wheels and bases so far have fit pretty snugly.

[@MaRcIu27]

I went to alpha mini just because I heard many complains about disconnection problems. Anyway 12nm is nice to to sim market, moza did listen and delivers many options. congrats.

I just bought a simagic alpha, literally in the mail right now, and this definitely seems like something that I would have looked at. Seems like a great amount of torque for the money. The wheel looks awesome for the money too. Gave a look at moza (r16) but the wheels from simagic just looked a little higher quality so that was what pushed me over in the end. Exciting product for the market as a whole though and glad we are getting more products at more affordable prices to give more people a good way into sim racing!

[@FatswellSmart]

i have simagic, you made the right choice of ecosystem, the p2000 pedals changed everything for me. from not ranking ever to multiple top 10s in rbr within weeks of owning them.

[@RaceZeus]

You’re better off with a simagic alpha, trust me. You want more nM to feel more detail. You don’t need to run the damping at 100% and feel the entire 15 nM…but the alpha is leagues better than the r12 because that extra nM is going to let you feel more details than anyone with an r12 will.

[@caelandouglas5568]

@@RaceZeus pretty much why i went with it, so good to know. I wanted to be in that "sweet spot" that everyone talks about of 10-12 with overhead. Also simagic ecosystem and factory wheels seemed LEAGUES above everyone else in terms of quality and ease of use.

But regardless, if you don't need console compatibility, you could always do any of the many other high end pedal choices.

[@allewigh]

I'm a bit confused about how it isnt cabon fiber. You said it is carbon fiber reinforced polymer, or CFRP, but that is how you always use carbon fiber. When creating stuff from carbon fiber, you use carbon fiber weaves and coat that with epoxy (plastic) to create a hard material. Is this wheel not made of CFRP in the usual way?

[@boostedmedia]

CF and CFRP are not the same thing. Carbon Fibre is generally made up of multiple stacked layers. This is a single injection moulded layer so it’s nowhere near as rigid.

[@allewigh]

@@boostedmedia I understand if this is just one layer, but even with multiple layers it is still called CFRP. You always use epoxy with the carbon fibre EDIT: (At least for this application. Other applications may use CF in different ways)

I had some issues getting into the button color change mode during my testing as well and discovered that you don't press the joystick buttons but you toggle each of them inward towards the center of the wheel, at the same time, and then do it again to lock in your choices.

The base hasn't shipped yet; would you say this wheel base would have a significant upgrade over the mini?

Is there a type of "static force reduction" setting in the Moza software? Helping a friend, who tested out my VRS pro and only needs about half the force. He preferred the feel when the static force during turns was greatly reduced, without ruining the other FFB effects. researched online. The only answer found, was to modify the sim ini files. (not sure that can be done in all sim titles). Next option was the simagic alpha mini. couldn't find any info about static force reduction on that wheelbase either. It seems only certain brands have this option. watched your asetek review, (in which it's called "cornering force assist"). The size of the la prima is too large to clamp to a "very solid" desk and the price was above also above his budget.

With the RJ Connection on the wheel base will the Fanatec elite v2 pedals work with the R12? Plugged into wheel base, or still keep it connected to pc.

No. Needs to be plugged in to PC

You are the best simracing reviewer! I hope to see soon your review of Fanatec BMW M4 GT3 steering wheel. Greetings from Italy 🇮🇹

[@boostedmedia]

Thanks :). It’s on the list :)

I was just thinking the other night that fanatec needs around a 12-15nm base to fit the csl elite mid range and preferably with the new qr2 system... hopefully this pushes them to stop being stagnate with new products lol

Love seeing Moza continues to release better and better bang for buck hardware, forcing Fanatec to follow

I just got an R9 a few months ago and the GS V2 wheel the other week. Very typical that a better wheel base for not much more money and a cheaper rim come out. Ah well, been enjoying it nonetheless.

[@ChrisSauer-oe5ve]

Exactly 🤦‍♂️😂

[@MikiLaggard]

Great review - as always! I hope the version they sell will have the bolt on QR wheel side piece like the R9. No bolts means no elongation possible. I need my base behind the monitor.

Hello, do you have any plans on reviewing the Simagic alpha u wheel and comparing it to something like the Asetek invicta

[@dannyadams5250]

Outstanding! I am no longer planning on buying the Logitech Pro setup.

19:22 The text on the right says "Moza R9 Wheelbase", but the price is $650. I get that this is actually the price of that Asetek wheel?
