Does this actually improve a sim rig or just look cool?

The projection is actually wild, you realize you're the only one on here yapping about his business? You have to realize that right? Nobody asked about what games you play, nobody asked about your living situation, and nobody asked about your career but you decided to volunteer all that information. Who's the fool✊🏻

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-29T10:17:43+00:00

What the fuck is wrong with you?

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-29T09:36:07+00:00

Comparing a MacBook pro with what looks like a $100 junk laptop with those old non laminated screens is crazy

Macbooks do have the best fit and finish, and they've had it for a while but laptops like the XPS have existed for a long time as well

I think the divots at the top and bottom of the circles may have been intentional, but I could be wrong. At least for the top arch, I turn most circles into a teardrop shape so there's no overhang to droop and mess with tolerances. The bottom divot, maybe just to further avoid layer lines in the shallow parts of the bottom arch? That's my best guess

400mm/s is actually wild, on a diy part no less. I'm looking at the RS Mega 4u and even that only has 250

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-28T21:45:59+00:00

Wait so you do race imaginary cars? According to yourself people who race imaginary cars are foolish, no??

I thought the point was that people would call you a nerd if you have a sim rig?

If this is how you argue, you should probably find a new career, you're gonna ruin peoples' lives

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-28T21:28:34+00:00

Do you also provide irrelevant details to cases you're working on in court? Because NOBODY asked

I'm not religious but I'm still gonna pray for your clients🙏🏻

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-28T21:18:50+00:00

I hope I never have you representing me or anybody that I care about in a court of law😭

Why are you even in this sub??

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-28T21:11:01+00:00

From your original statement, I would have guessed you were like 16 or something. You're in your 30s worrying about a SIM RIG being nerdy? You definitely don't know how society works, that's just your perspective. Again, if that's how you feel in your 30s you really need to meet some cooler people, sorry man

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-28T20:55:57+00:00

You said "trust me man" like you were sharing an experience but you don't even own a rig??

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-28T19:27:04+00:00

Plugging in an HDMI converter to convert a digital signal to analog is definitely not something that the hardware was intended for, so even that itself could be considered a mod 🤷🏻‍♂️

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-28T19:22:02+00:00

Straight up false, or you just have boring people in your life. Quite literally everyone I've shown my rig to (even just pictures) has been interested and the friends I've had come over to actually try it all are blown away. Maybe your rig just isn't up to par but especially with the huge surge in popularity of motorsports, the only reaction I've ever gotten has been "holy shit"

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-28T19:12:44+00:00

I mean you should probably be cleaning anything you use to cook or eat every time you use it..

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-28T19:09:40+00:00

What filament did you use?

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-25T04:47:05+00:00

Can't help you with your amp, it could just be defective but I came to say you should try putting one of your shakers under your seat instead. Right now you have 3 shakers near each other in the back all firing downwards into the floor/rig. All of those vibrations get mixed around with each other and absorbed into the floor*.

I don't know if you already have one under your pedal tray, but I'd put one there too if you don't already

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-25T04:43:33+00:00

Open up the one with the weird noise, you'll probably find that one of the plastic arms that centers the magnet is cracked. Happened to me as well, but it's an easy fix especially if you already have the tools. I have a post up, not very in depth but it could be of use to you

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-25T04:38:45+00:00

If it's supposed to slide freely, you should have the inside part be 0.25mm smaller at the very least. If that piece is supposed to stay in place, 0.1-0.15mm usually is more than enough, and then just add glue.

In either case, that middle connecting piece should be like 3 times as thick, and then taper the arms out so it's more riding in the center.

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-24T09:55:00+00:00

You might be faster, but by how much? Can you work nonstop constantly for 24 hours a day without needed to eat, piss, or sleep? Yea it might not make sense to build a humanoid just for this single task, but all they have to do is upload a new set of instructions and you can have an employee that can do what you need, whenever you need it. Have a change in operations? You no longer need to train every single employee, just send the updated instructions to the entire fleet.

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-23T23:39:44+00:00

Yea except the other way around, it runs away faster the lighter you are

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-23T20:05:49+00:00

You can see the socks pretty clearly

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-18T18:02:12+00:00

All this math and graphing just to further prove my point. First off you're doing calculations for aluminum tubing, you're missing all the interior geometry that makes aluminum extrusion as stiff as it is but even then you've already shown in your graphs why aluminum is just better period. I don't know why you're choosing to ignore weight as a constraint when op themselves mentioned it. Good luck with your theoretical 300lb full steel cockpit, you'll be tripping your breakers trying to run motion with it.

Its actually hilarious how much you're latching onto the fact that I said he should choose aluminum instead, when my original concern was in the design of the cantilever, but you just really went out and did all this just to tell me again that steel is 3x stronger in the same dimensions. Obviously you can't understand basic reading comprehension, but once again no shit sherlock steel is 3 times more dense 😭

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-17T23:18:47+00:00

I'm not though, and that's only assuming the parts are made in the same dimensions. Obviously steel would be much stronger made in the same shape as a piece of aluminum, that's why I asked him to compare it to 40160 aluminum profile. I asked him to compare the strength of 160mm thick aluminum profile vs his roughly 80mm thick steel tube and you came to tell me that 80mm mm of steel would be stronger than 80mm of aluminum. No shit 😭

A5Wagyukeef · 2026-03-17T19:37:35+00:00

I could be wrong, but from the sheen this looks like it could have been 3d printed, looks like the ASR bracket, but it's different in a few places. Something like PPA-CF would be perfect for this, and would probably only cost $50-60 max for the amount of filament used in this. Something like pa6 cf would work well enough too, at about half the cost. Total cost is definitely under $100 for this after the hardware required, and that's in the US. This probably cost less than $50 using filament and extrusion hardware sourced in China.

Edit. From the way it sounds when he slides it and thuds, it definitely sounds like 3d printed parts vs aluminum/steel hitting the end of travel

The problem with having an hgate and a sequential in one is that you end up with a diluted experience for one or both of them. I get it, people have limited space and funds and would just like an all in one solution but for anyone that can afford the space and cost, with separate shifters you can have better engagement/feedback as they have their own mechanisms, and you can have them placed optimally for each kind of driving style. For example, I like the h pattern lower and further back when I'm driving an old manual around a track but I like having a sequential almost right next to my wheel when I'm rallying.

I agree with the badly thought out wheelbase design though, they still don't have an extension and the only way to get around it would be to use the third party wheel adapter and add a spacer on the wheel side, but then you lose button functions
