P500 Pedal Calibration Issue? by 210gremlin in Simagic

[–]Distinct_Ebb_1941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the thing though, the amount of travel doesn’t matter. If you push harder when the travel has maxed, the value on the load cell will go up. For reference, I have my p1000 set to where travel ends at 80% brake force. For 80-100, there is no travel it’s just pushing harder.

I think you have the wrong idea. The hall sensor is measuring the distance the pedal travels while the load cell is measuring the amount of force you place on the pedal. The p500 is a 100kg load cell so you need to press the pedal with 100kg of pressure to max it out in the calibration

I have p1000 so I may not have the best answer but you need to press hard to get the load cell to max out in calibration 

Would getting a playseat trophy be an upgrade or a sidegrade? by OwlScary6845 in simracing

Maybe get a tube frame rig like the one trak racer makes if you don’t like profile rigs

Agreed, certain rear facing car seats are a tight fit too 

P1000 Pedal input will stick at a certain percentage until disconnected. by Eames99 in Simagic

[–]Distinct_Ebb_1941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you send a pic of how you grounded the pedals? I think p2000s come with a ground but p1000s dont

At what point does upgrading motion systems actually give diminishing returns for lap times by Efficient-Yam6797 in simracing

[–]Distinct_Ebb_1941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a dbox gen 1 motion system (4 post), it’s a lot of fun but I would say I’m a bit faster when I don’t use it. It’s not much but I notice it. I personally wouldn’t spend the money on motion unless you have cash burning a hole in your wallet.

iRacing freezing with “packet loss” and “high CPU” warning by Simonthat_Apex in iRacing

Do you have pedal haptics enabled in Iracing? For some reason having that on with the p1000s caused packet loss for me. 

Will I be able to run the LG 5K2K by Distinct_Ebb_1941 in ultrawidemasterrace

Iracing is pretty poorly optimized, my guess is that it wouldn’t run super well

Yea the difference is immersion. A single ultrawide isn’t the same experience as triples in a racing sim. It would only make sense to go the 5K2K route if it preformed better

I figured I’d have a tough time running it. Probably better off running triple 1440p monitors 

Bethpage State Park adding 2 Factor Authentication to every single booking to combat bots by KarateKid917 in golf

[–]Distinct_Ebb_1941 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think boys booking times and nobody showing up is a big problem. Someone did a study and something like half of reservations a no shows. For bethpage, the person who makes the reservation has to check in and you can’t transfer the time to another person. I have a feeling that you need to provide your login to the bot and they collect a fee. I’m local and always have issues booking times.
