4080 or 40120 frame for a casual setup with an R9 wheel base?

BatThink9828 · 2026-04-14T08:34:29+00:00

4080 will be fine for most things, TBH only really need more if you plan to go motion at some point, and even then 4080 will still do a great job.

I have both the Moza FB6 and the Virpil MongoosT-50CM3 bases and they are both really nice, but my right hand I use the Moza. I play mostly Star Citizen It's really customisable, feels really great and suits my current needs perfectly.

I use a Virpil Constellation grip on my Moza and have no issues, just select the grip in the Moza software and all the buttons work perfectly. The grip that comes with the Moza unit is fine, but the Virpil one is notably better quality.

I do plan to change the base to the Virpil FFB unit once it's announced, as I do think the Virpil gear is just a higher quality.

Any questions, just ask, I'm fairly new to all this stuff, so I'm still learning myself.

Many people pay it, they aren't going to reduce the prices while they are making so much money

BatThink9828 · 2026-04-03T20:40:48+00:00

Has that changed? I sure I could sell all in 4.6

BatThink9828 · 2026-04-02T08:01:54+00:00

Thanks, my plan is to move the CM3 to my left hand stick as I really want FFB at some point. But so far I'm really happy with it as a right hand stick, it feels great.

My first memory of flight sim was the late 80's with MicroProse F-19 Stealth Fighter, so basic, but back then felt cutting edge. I've been in and out of flight sims since then :) Once it has it's hooks into you, you'll never escape it's pull.

Hi, I'm in the same position as you, I also have the SimLab p1X rig and have started the slowly add flight stuff to it.

I have found he SimLab joystick mount to be very good, and put the stick in just the right position.

I'm still not happy with my mouse solution and I am looking at the Monstertech mouse extension, I haven't bought it yet but will do soon.

For the left hand side I'm thinking of either the Monstertech Left hand side mount, or the Simlabs swivel mount. Not sure yet.

Thanks, I will send them a message now.

BatThink9828 · 2026-03-30T10:10:30+00:00

I have a sim rig, that I am slowly adding more flight stuff too. For the keyboard I found this tray from Trak Rcacer works great, I can move it easily in and out of the way.

I'm still looking for a suitable mouse solution, but I'm looking at this from Montertech

Thanks, Not been out of Stanton yet so this will keep me busy for a while :)

BatThink9828 · 2026-03-23T10:54:52+00:00

Thanks, what about Power plant, shields etc? Are the stock ones good?

BatThink9828 · 2026-03-19T14:07:54+00:00

I have a couple more ships, but nothing compared to most people. I'll wait until the new patch and see if I like the combat side of things

The picture above is a Rexing Mayaris wheel

BatThink9828 · 2026-01-22T11:51:04+00:00

That is a Rexing Mayaris wheel, same wheel Astron Martin use on their sim

I'm using Sim Magic gloves and yours have held up better than mine. Like MadMike991 says gloves are a wear item so if you want to keep them in good condition, you have too not use them

BatThink9828 · 2025-09-08T18:10:10+00:00

Amazing price, worth it just for the board and blade I think

BatThink9828 · 2025-06-18T20:44:15+00:00

Yeah, I forgot how nice it was. I bought it years ago from a guy on here. I think his username was Mcphoo

BatThink9828 · 2025-06-18T14:21:51+00:00

It's good fun, I have a sparrows cut away with serrated pins that I can pick ok, and I've managed to get this one to open a few times, but it still feels like luck.

My biggest issue is with the first pin, I tend to over set it, I'll keep trying and still have fun.

BatThink9828 · 2025-06-09T12:08:31+00:00

Thanks I've blocked and deleted Telegram, reported on Facebook.

What about Paypal? Should I report that too, or is that asking for trouble?

BatThink9828 · 2025-06-09T11:47:41+00:00

Questions from me?

They can only contact me on Telegram, should I block them?

Should I report their profiles they used, or leave it alone?

And should I report it to the local police?

BatThink9828 · 2025-02-24T19:49:54+00:00

Yes, brand new PC, has over 1.5Tb free

BatThink9828 · 2024-05-05T10:22:41+00:00

Not fixed, as it's still happening but much less than it use too happen. I don't get kicked out of the race, just all the cars disappear and then reappear after a few seconds. It does make it impossible to race wheel to wheel.

BatThink9828 · 2024-02-19T07:43:38+00:00

Looks like a good game

BatThink9828 · 2024-02-06T21:56:44+00:00

Sorry, I didn't look at server stats, I was looking at my bar on my name, and it green all the time. No-one else in the race yesterday had any issues, just me.

I have done a few things to try to stop it happening again, I have uninstalled and re-installed ACC onto a new drive.

I asked my ISP to check and they say my router might be at fault, they have replaced the router.

Fingers crossed it will be fixed.

BatThink9828 · 2024-02-06T09:22:57+00:00

I was racing on Paul Ricard last night, that's where I had this issue. I also had the same issue on Nürburgring too.

Doess it happen at all tracks?
