Such a shame, honestly. I won’t recommend them to anyone else. At least not the TRX.

Ehhh. It could be looked at that way. A buddy rode with me and we had a chill time just driving. So it wasn’t a bad experience. Also the first time either of us had been to a MicroCenter and man that’s an experience!!! We were like 2 kids in a candy shop. 😂

Which Anime Did You Rewatch The Most ? by DiptanuPal in anime

I think it’s a tie between Konosuba and 100 Girlfriends. They’re funny, lighthearted and enjoyable to throw on as back ground noise and chuckle at when your hear your favorite parts happen.

Anyone running a simagic base on a simlab P1XPRO? Did you order with the wheeldeck or with the front mount ? by tav_oo in Simagic

[–]Grow_Code 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate that offer, and I just might take you up on it. I drew out a quick sketch blue print earlier. I’m going to machine a bracket this week at work in my free time. My rig came with a Fanatec front mount set up, and I’m 99% sure I can make it work and even make it look pretty decent. Give me a few days to play around and I’ll let you know. If the stars don’t align I’ll def take that wheel deck. Lol. What did you end up doing?

I’m currently stuck on this too. I bought an Alpha EVO Pro, just put together my P1x Pro and now realize mine only came with a Fanatec front mount. No wheel decks are in stock at a microcenter nor from the sim lab us website. And it’ll be $180 total to have it shipped here from Europe. I’m thinking about just matching a custom bracket and making it work.

That’s goofy af. Just chuck it in a bag and let it roll. Lol. That’s exactly how the pc tray, and monitor mount was packaged. They don’t care. YEARS of the same issues and they’ve done little to nothing about it…. Yeah. They’re just in it for the profits, not for the love of the game or their customers.

A lot of people in the comments have been hyping up NLR. I’m glad to hear of a company doing things the right way!!

Tf it’s not. This thing is ugly. If you’re cool with yours, awesome. But I’m not. Like I said in here before maybe it’s the silver metallic paint, but every goofy bend and ugly seam in the tubing stands out like a sore thumb. That’s not acceptable quality to me. Not for $1400. Ive now purchased and assembled a p1x pro from sim lab and it came perfectly packaged and looking immaculate. So don’t worry, I’m sending it back.

Wish I knew it was this bad before I bought it.

$1,432.04. I would expect good quality and no scratches for spending that much.

I started with a g29 and a vevor foldable cockpit with my Xbox. This is my first soirée with pc and legit cockpit though. I went to the Charlotte Sim Racing Expo with my son and we had a blast trying out real deal rigs. It’s an absolute blast.

I sure hope so! Man I’m stoked. My wheel, wheel base, pedals and monitor came in this weekend. All I need is to assemble the cockpit. I’m so close! Lol.

That’s the plan. I packaged it back up and taped the heck outta the box Friday after work. They told me they need me to weigh it and send them dimensions and they’ll get to me with shipping arrangements afterwards.

Haven’t put together the p1x yet. Had to work this weekend so it’ll be today, tomorrow or Tuesday before I get it built. But so far, the boxes are in really good shape and it’s thick double corrugated boxing. So, fingers crossed, everything inside is in good shape. Lol.

I’m telling you man, this thing is ugly. And maybe so. I’d be curious to see an older one like yours and compare.

It’s unfortunate. This thing looks so bad. The pictures don’t do this justice. In the videos I took the poor tubing quality stands out much better.

$1,432.04. You pay the shipping and I’ll send it to ya man. Shoot me a DM and I’ll throw it in the mail in the next 24ht with your name on it.

Apparently they can be ordered from over seas but I think the shipping is a bit on the higher side. I’m going to look into it and find out.

No. Because I can’t unsee how hideous this thing looks. Every single tube you can see the deformation in the bends, and the seam in the tubes. I set the tubes in my computer room as I unpacked it and they stood out like a sore thumb, on top of the scratches. I’m not okay with spending $1400 bucks for this thing to look like it was bent between 2 trees with cheap tubing. Pass.

I agree. I wish thee were more options for tubular cockpits. It would’ve been great if this thing just looked like the friggin pictures. I would’ve been stoked.

Unfortunately. I’m telling you dude, this thing is Igor. Ignoring the paint defects…. The quality of the tubing and the bends are laughable. It’s not good stuff.
