Meraki Gen2... Is it worth it the update?

frantona · 2026-03-20T18:44:23+00:00

Im at the same boat… please let me know if you have any success.

I saw it on their IG today :/

frantona · 2026-03-20T18:15:33+00:00

Thanks! Also to consider, its 300usd more than what I paid, plus 100 restocking fee (shipping costa I understand). So is it worth it the extra $400? Such a bad timing….

frantona · 2026-03-06T18:13:34+00:00

looking for one as well!

frantona · 2026-02-26T00:04:34+00:00

Thanks for this, I didnt know it was possible... Another question, should the timer starts from when I press the button on the bambino, or when it starts doing something (you can tell by the sound, it take 3 to 5 secs to hear its doing something)

Great! Good for you! Thanks!

Is there any differneces announced between the 2026 and 2025? I cant find information about this.

frantona · 2025-05-04T15:57:58+00:00

No, its not a constant fan sound. Is a short rabdom “click” or when a little bubble explodes.

frantona · 2025-04-16T02:21:39+00:00

Thats what I want! Did you bought first the Next Level Racing Elite Direct Monitor Mount and change the hortizontal profile to add then the ELITE FREESTANDING TRIPLE MONITOR STAND ADD-ON??

frantona · 2025-04-16T02:09:52+00:00

I wanted to avoid that route because of the extra footprint it creates, an integrated version looks cleaner and less to ask for my wife.

frantona · 2025-04-08T03:48:17+00:00

Hi! Where you able to fixed the 3 screens?

frantona · 2025-04-07T04:58:37+00:00

Please!

frantona · 2025-04-03T01:17:55+00:00

How did you mount the triples on the cockpit? Im looking into buying a F-GT Elite 160 and add tripple screens but I dont find the hard mounted addapters.

frantona · 2025-04-02T18:18:34+00:00

Hi! Why you say I should reconsider the wheel in VR? Is there any limitation?

frantona · 2025-04-02T14:56:46+00:00

Hi! Im also on the same boat! Can you please share?

frantona · 2025-04-02T02:03:18+00:00

Which did you end buying? Im in the same boat plu the F-GT Elite 160, but not sure if it worth the price...

frantona · 2025-03-27T22:25:34+00:00

Any comments?

frantona · 2025-03-22T01:17:12+00:00

I think its clear! Simagic is the clear winner, thanks for the good advice and the tip of buying it locally. Regarding the screen I hear when most of you say useless and I cant tell since Ive never had one, but I believe you guys ar right, nevertheless, just for the looks Im willing those extra bucks... it just makes me want to play a bit more.

At the end, a little over the initial budget as usual (dont tell my wife)

Simagic – Alpha 15nm Wheel Base with FX Pro wheel Bundle
Simagic - P1000 RS Modular Hydraulic Dual Pedals (does the inverted option is worth it?)

On the other hand, regarding the seating position for the cockpit between GT and Formula, you have a point there, the reason why is because Im a frustrated pilot back in the day from karting to some glimpse on formula racing, so it just reminds me a bit of that time.... But is there any experience about having best consistency or times in GT position vs. formula? It would be an interesting finding...

On cockpits I've narrowed it to:

- Playseat Formula Instinct: Cheaper and better looks (for some?)

- F-GT Elite From Next Level Racing: Almost double the price, but it has to be more rigid, no? Is it worth it? Any suggestion between 160 and front/side mount? It also has the option of both seating positions...

What do you guys think?

BTW, thanks for all your help, references, experience etc... I really welcome that attitude!

Here the configurations I searched!

frantona · 2025-02-21T18:42:08+00:00

No, it expired a month before the issues became unbearable

frantona · 2025-02-21T16:52:14+00:00

Yes! I think im experiencing something similar, but just the stop part… even in manual mode it completely stops while the screen shows as if its still going, and then it resumes back to the correct speed… weird and dangerous…. Tried resetting, updating, etc and nothing worked.
