Gt omega prime

Final thoughts on the GT Omega Prime cockpit, gt omega prime. This video is part 1 of a 2 part review series on the Prime cockpit. In the second video I will be mounting sim racing hardware components and testing under real life SRG conditions. Here we have another cockpit made from aluminum extrusions.

So here we are. About 5 months late. I planned to write this review back in January, but a mix of pandemic, work-related, and family matters have resulted in some time-management issues. Nevertheless, we are now back on track. As the story goes, in late , I decided to check out some aluminum T-Slot-based sim racing rigs, as a replacement for my trusted tube frame chassis.

The assembly of the rig was pretty straightforward. Not the only choice, gt omega prime, but definitely one that will deliver the value for the money. You can only say what has been said a thousand times already.

Nevertheless, we are now back on track. As the story goes, in late , I decided to check out some aluminum T-Slot-based sim racing rigs, as a replacement for my trusted tube frame chassis. While these steel tube frames were doing a fine job, and certainly looked good, it became apparent that they did not really suit my needs, as I am constantly testing gear and fiddling with custom hardware. Furthermore, I am also a user of the brilliant Next Level Racing V3 motion platform, and it has often proven to be a pain to implement when using an out-of-the-box pre-assembled sim racing chassis.

This assembly is more than fine to accommodate just about any wheelbase, including high torque Direct drive wheels. Be the First to Comment! Last but probably not last in the long run, I mounted a diamond plate floor platform in between the pedals and the seat. With the use of my spare parts and some third-party products, I have pimped the rig to accommodate my sim racing hardware and secured a way of adjusting the chassis when I purchase or test upcoming hardware. As I wanted to start the build with a basic package, I looked at the various prices and noticed minor differences. Here we have another cockpit made from aluminum extrusions. Both entry-level budget cockpits were very nice products for their price, and I have had nothing but positive experiences with the company and its products as far as delivery and service were concerned. These t-nuts do not operate as smoothly as spring ball t-nuts used in standard 40 series profiles.

I could not find any faults or shortcomings, but I am sure that certain individuals in the community will point out a number of them while picking their nose and mentioning a number of brands. As far as cost goes, I literally had no clue, as I was planning to design and adjust the rig not before, but during the build process. Talking to some of my sim racing friends who already made the jump to custom build profile rigs, it more and more started to become clear that this was the way to go, if I wanted an easy way to adjust my racing rig to my likings and needs. While I could have sourced all the basic materials myself, it seemed a no-brainer to start with a basic pre-designed cockpit and go from there. Things are either good enough or bad. The feet also keep the rig from moving when you are going berserk in the first corner during an online race. While the internet is a good source of information, it does not always provide you with the bare facts when it comes to product introductions. You will notice that I decided not to use the feet, and instead mounted wheels. It grants you the opportunity to dial in everything just as you want it, and you can keep adding and improving the various aspects of the chassis. Fitting a seat is as simple as tightening a few bolts. Not the only choice, but definitely one that will deliver the value for the money. Furthermore, the platform allowed me to tidy and hide the spaghetti of cables used. About 5 months late. That said, yours could be different.
