This cockpit is incredibly sturdy. I'm a bigger guy, and it doesn't flex at all even with my direct drive wheel. Assembly took a couple of hours but the instructions were clear. Definitely feels like a professional rig.
I've been racing for years and this is a huge upgrade from my old setup. The aluminum frame is very rigid, and the universal mount fits my wheel perfectly. Just remember you need to supply your own seat – that's an extra cost. Overall, I'm very satisfied.
I was hesitant about the price, but once I set it up, I understood. The build quality is top-notch. No wobble, no flex, and it looks great in my gaming room. I can race for hours without any discomfort.
The rig is solid and does its job, but I wish the pedal plate had more adjustment options. I'm tall, and it took some fiddling to get the right position. Also, the included tools are basic, so have your own hex keys handy. Not a dealbreaker, but worth noting.
This is my third cockpit and by far the best. The steel-reinforced aluminum frame is rock solid – no flex even with my 8Nm wheelbase. The GT position is comfortable for long stints, and the universal mount works with my Fanatec directly. Highly recommend.
It's a good rig, but I expected a bit more for the price. The seat slider is a bit stiff, and the frame has a few sharp edges. Also, the instructions could be clearer – I had to watch a video to figure out the pedal plate. It works well now, though.
I built this in an afternoon and immediately felt the difference. The frame is super strong and the GT position is perfect for my back. I love that it's universal – I can mount any wheelbase I want in the future. Great investment.
Very good cockpit. The aluminum frame is lightweight but strong. I only wish the pedal plate was a bit more angled. I added a small wedge to fix it. Otherwise, it's a great base for my sim setup.
I'm 6'2" and 240 lbs, and this cockpit handles me with no issues. The seat position is well thought out, and the frame doesn't budge even when I'm hard on the brakes. Setup was straightforward, and the quality is evident. Absolutely love it.
I received it with a missing bolt and the instructions were hard to follow. I had to email support multiple times to get the part. Once assembled, it's okay, but the initial experience was frustrating.
