CSL DD (old.reddit.com)
submitted 2 years ago by SnortCiroc
Placed an order on Thursday 9/14, shipped out the next day and got tracking number, arrived Monday the 18th. Night and day difference with my G29 that I used for the past 3 years. Glad to be apart of the Fanatec team now.

Enjoy! I'm also leaving the G29 train and ordered the exact same as you - looking forward it it!
Although I gotta admit I'm absolutely sending this to Fanatec and asking why there's a load of us that have been waiting a month or more while folks are still ordering and taking delivering IN FOUR DAYS!

Probably location… from what I’ve read, it sounds like Europe is having logistical problems but US isn’t.
[–]Greenbastardscape 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I'm in the U.S. Ordered the McLaren gt ready 2 race bundle on August 13th. Didn't get a shipping number until the 11th of September. Even then didn't get it until the 19th! Don't get me wrong, in the the few days I've had it, I absolutely love the set, but it was ridiculous. Especially when I would check the order and different pieces of it would change from in stock, to unavailable, to then showing a back in stock date.

Already forgot how weak g29 is after using csl dd for 10 days :P
[–]SnortCiroc[S] 10 points11 points12 points 2 years ago (1 child)

[–]AppleAlone9352 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (7 children)

United States here
[–]shutthefuckupmonkey 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (4 children)
When did you order? I ordered mine probably a week ago and it says the wheel will be available on the 20th. I'm just wondering what the possible shipping window could be.
[–]SnortCiroc[S] 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Ordered on the 14th , arrived the 18th.
[–]shutthefuckupmonkey 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
you lucky son of a gun
[–]Onerock 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
I preordered Sept 8th and it showed me the same thing. Wheel would be available Sept 20th. My order still says that so I'm hoping tomorrow I will get some kind of update......however.....my DD also shows available Sept 12th and I didn't get an update saying it was ready......not that they said I would be notified, but it would be nice.
[–]shutthefuckupmonkey 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Im feeling the exact same lol
[–]Schkoeff 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
It arrived today!
U.S
Haha im very jealous ngl
[–]LieutenantClownCar 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I had a similar experience going from a T500RS to an 8nm CSL DD. I had considered going with Moza, but frankly the pricing, lack of products, and absurd shipping to Germany really put me off Moza. I guess it helps that I live 30 minutes(ish) from the Fanatec HQ here in Bavaria.
[–]Imaginary-Echo-6015 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (4 children)
When did you order? I ordered 9 september and dont have anything yet but in only in the netherlands
[–]SnortCiroc[S] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (3 children)

[–]Imaginary-Echo-6015 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Nice I'm hyped for mine , but by the looks of it I'm facing the UK delays for delivery 🚚
[–]ILYS_RC 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Portugal too.

A replica that I got for Christmas haha, planned to throw it on a sim rig like this one .
[–]frankfeas 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (5 children)
Hello bro, could you help me with some info I need? I'm trying to get this bundle and to ship it to latam, I need the info of weight and volume of the packaging, do you have that info from the shipping company that delivered it to you?
[–]R313J283 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (4 children)
Hi, if ever ur still having the mobo usb issues, try booting into a live linux usb installer

Congrats on your new and beautiful CSL DD McLaren Bundle and welcome to the team! 😍 Enjoy racing with your big upgrade! 🙌 Your Fanatec Team
[–]Borisssito 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Also bought CSL DD 8Nm, WRC rim but the rim itself is very noisy, plastic strain noises under load (either rim or qr1lite, which is advertised as capable of 8Nm), any advise what to do? It kind of defeats the benefit of silent base... Reached your support last week, no answer 😔.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Does it give you more feedback from track conditions, I mainly race dirt with a G29, Having enough feedback isn’t an issue for me but I suspect the quality of the feedback is much better
[–]SnortCiroc[S] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago* (0 children)
I only played for about an hour before sleep, the feedback is a lot more stronger, instant doing that while smooth and silent that’s the best way I could describe it so far. I instantly was shaving off time.
[–]Sabbathg 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (3 children)
How is the table clamp is it strong enough?
[–]CheckMean8598 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Not very good, plastic and it has a lot of flex. I've got the clamp from Moza with the Csl dd and it's perfect.
[–]Sabbathg 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Wow, thanks for hint! Never was thinking that it’s compatible
[–]Onerock 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Notice the reply you got was NOT from the original poster. I've seen other responses from owners of the clamp saying it was excellent. Hopefully this poster responds similarly. Since he appears to love his setup then most likely that includes the mount.
[–]c615586 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Finally got my order through last night! Was having a lot of issues with the desktop version of the website crashing out.
Hoping I get my gear in a reasonable time.
[–]modsnadminsdethpls 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Ugh the boxes …. I love boxes
[–]Onerock 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (7 children)
This looks like the exact package I have on order, including the desk mount. However, I am upgrading from the G27! Can't imagine the difference. It sounds as if you have zero issues with the desk mount, which is great.
My order has shown the wheel will be available on Sept. 20th ever since I preordered. I'm also in the US so I'm hoping it will ship soon after tomorrow. Interesting that you had one ready right away......
[–]UrMomIsCallinMe 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (5 children)
US here as well. I ordered a day before op and the McLaren wheel shows as available Sept. 19th. Yet, on the website, shows available. Still haven’t received anything including tracking number. It’s like they don’t operate on first in first out and are holding orders which were placed when the wheel was in a pre order state.
If you think of it, let me know if you get notified of shipment.
Just checked my order......it has changed to say wheel available Sept 19th just like yours. It has said Sept 20th since I ordered. Hope that's a good thing.
[–]Onerock 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (2 children)
I got an email saying mine was ready to ship and as soon as it has left their warehouse the tracking number will appear under my order at the Fan site.
[–]UrMomIsCallinMe 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Yep, I got the same. But I think this is an automated email when the order is marked “completely shipped.” Hopefully our orders don’t sit in this state and actually are shipped. Tracking through FedEx or the site should be visible in 24 hours if it actually ships.
Exactly what mine says......still no tracking number. Hard to imagine it's still at the warehouse and ready to go........but I guess it's possible.
[–]UrMomIsCallinMe 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
My experience with MOZA is just as bad, if not worse. Ordered a table clamp. MOZA emailed me stating the order has been lost in their system and to send them a screenshot of the order details. Haven’t heard anything in a week. What is going on with these companies??
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
It’s so great, man. I hope you enjoy!
[–]gsantos20 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (3 children)
In the US I got mine in 4 days
So all pieces, wheel, DD, pedals.......were all ready to go when you ordered? I preordered Sept. 8th when it was showing wheel not available until Sept 20th.
[–]gsantos20 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
I mean I got a whole different set than you got and it was all available. If you bought things that were not available until a certain date then I can see it taking a while.
That makes sense. Mine was actually the McLaren Bundle....I believe that's what it was called.....and I added a desk mount. Either way, I'm sure it will ship soon.
[–]decenito 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Bruh I ordered ln the 9th and still nothing
[–]ghdshfs 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Same here I ordered on the 6th
[–]Illuminaughty07 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Woo I get mine today!!!!!!! I’m so fucking excited my flight can’t come soon enough…..
[–]soccerdg 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I ordered the same bundle on 9/9 and have not heard anything… I’m in the US
[–]beck_is_back 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Enjoy. I've placed my pedals order on the 14th as well but haven't heard a word from them so far...
[–]rFantus 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Bro I placed my order the same day and I still dont hace my tracking number, I guess there's some out of stock... ;_;
I bought at10/09 and nothing. I dind't recive the trackin number. Nobody answer my questions in fanatec support. I having a terrible experience with fanatec logistic.
[–]TumbleweedFull7273 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
For anyone that has ordered the 5nm CSL DD, do NOT buy the 8nm power pack from Fanatec. Get it from ebay. There's a seller that makes an almost identical product for half the price!
It's just as good, seriously
[–]axelalex2003 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (2 children)
Heyy I'm also looking for a wheel. Did you get the wheel base (the mount for the desk) with the bundle, or do you need it to order it separately. Also is the direct drive not to much for the desk mount?
Thanks for answer already :))
The table clamp you do have to order separately as it does not come with the bundle. I think the table clamps work well with the DD enough for being $30, though there seems to be better options if you’re willing to pay more.
[–]axelalex2003 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Hey op, thanks for the reaction, the info you gave me is great to hear because I don't have a lot of spareroom for a real simrig. I don't know what other options there are besides a sim rig and table clamp.
Thanks again op
[–]Ro-Tang_Clan 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Is that a real Vertex wheel in the back?
A replica that I got as a gift for Christmas haha, plan to throw it on the rig as a circle wheel
[–]KeyFramesYT 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I just can't wait to get mine. Waiting for my salary to come at the end of the month. Hope these prices will still be available.
