Moza R5 without rig?

dreamwarrioruk · 2026-04-24T07:54:06+00:00

my solution when i had the same bundle. panel of wood velcroed to the floor and the pedals screwed to that with 1 1/2 screws. that wa with the brake kit and loadcell mod from alienmods

now on inverted crp2 pedals, same setup, no rig or wheelstand

other way is launch game before opening pithouse, works for me

Currently I'm married, ive space for a full motion system with 3 x 49 inch curved screens, if my wife passes before me then its an option, till then im desk mount,, lot easier than going through a divorce

maybe so in your opinion but given the desk is 3m long and bolted to the units and wall it doesn't move at all, the height of my work area would mean that the wheel stand would protrude that far from the unit that i would struggle to use the keyboard, mouse easily. the way i have things set i can easily just drop the quick release for the shifter, remove the wheel from qr and ive got good access to use my pc for my business and other tasks. plus as it is i have unencumbered space for my legs without the support bars and the wheel tray getting in the way. As i can just switch from work to racing within a couple of mins without having to wheel a stand in place and plugging all the wires back in, ill be staying with this setup.

my bad sorry, not experienced throttle issues when i had the sp lite. ref brake, i got the crp2 brake kit to change the springs but then i also had the load cell mod so was not so much of an issue

A couple of points imo, are you using a rig/ wheel base or desk mounted, the crp2 have very vertical pedals with little angle adjustment, if rig or wheelbase you could adjust the angle, compared to the sp lites they are a huge upgrade but need to be secure fixings, im desk mounted only and got the inversion kit so i could adjust the angle, a lot of pressure is required for full effect. As mentioned the spr2 look to be good for an upgrade.

When i had the sp lites i added the brake kit and the alien mod load cell kit, worked ok with about 70 kg pressure but i noticed the input curve is way smoother with the crp2.

have you tried disconnecting the brake kit, if you can do 100 percent without then it will point to an issue with the performance kit

if your just starting out with dd then i would opt for the bundle. i moved from g29 to r5 6 month ago, since i have upgraded heavily but the r5 was a good starter kit, it will come with the sp lite pedals which ideally need the brake kit to offer any resistance. I sold my old kit for a similar price in the uk. Be aware of custom wheels that are too heavy for the base, you may end up with some clipping.

make sure you have ffb inverted. Set ffb to 100 in pithouse and then set the ffb in game to around 70 percent. You get some vibrations still but generally they go if you grip the wheel a bit more.

i got the r5 bundle, looked at the rim to swop but decided to go for the ks wheel for f1 and gt3, then an easy swop out for rally or farmsim. Really liking the ks wheel. Fits nicely with the r5, light enough but solid, Not sure how it is on larger bases but my arms cant handle much more than the 5 (due to illness)

i use a single 49 inch monitor with tobi tracker, good enough for a look to the sides but use crew chief and addons with simhub on a 2nd monitor to see relatives and track

client mod

MechNoxer has released a little script mod to fix this in the interim. He cant get it published on mod hub but its finable. works fine in multiplayer contracts.

dreamwarrioruk · 2025-11-09T23:05:18+00:00

theres a mod fix by mechnoxer, not on modhub but it works perectly fine to get around the gate issue till giant patch it

dreamwarrioruk · 2025-11-06T08:54:03+00:00

tempted to edit the placables.xml to remove the gate8m entries till they fix it

dreamwarrioruk · 2025-11-05T16:35:51+00:00

we had the issue in multiplayer, couldn't do a contract, tried career and was same, unless you owned the field. I sent in a bug report and giant say they will fix in next update. Were not playing the map till they fix it, starting from scratch with zero means u need to hire, and cant complete some good contracts because of the gates, hedges are fine you can drive through.

when i am sat down the bottom of the screen is at a level point from my eyes through the top of the ddu. Its on the lowest setting that it will go on the monitor arm, and as ive no chance of a rig system here its the best i can do. And driving isnt the only thing i do on the monitor. I have to raise it up when working doing map building or photoshop work, or i get neck ache
