GamerMuscleVideos so the handbrake would work with a Logitech G29 while using the USB Adapter?
Can you use the handbrake stand alone on a PS4
Hands down the most entertaining sim product review ever! Lol
Put your hands up where we can see them.
GamerMuscleVideos haha!
Agree
Love your sense of humor. My favourite sim racing youtuber
I had no idea it could be mounted to the Shifter. You're the only video I've found that mentions this. Thank you so much for this information. It's going to save me some room on my rig.
Same here but you have to buy a USB adapter for each item which is really bad.
I am looking at buying this in January 2021. The little usb dongle thing is $50 CDN. Crazy stuff. Nice vid BTW.
So I'm way late to sin racing party and even though I don't plan on getting a hand break after seeing another one of really creative well done videos. You earned a new sub. As you would say over there in the UK cheers mate 🙃
Great review. Love the commentary.
Might be a bit late, but the way you have it mounted here, how are you accessing the lever to switch between H-pattern & sequential? I've had to mount mine at a lower angle, which isn't ideal, but gives me enough clearance to reach the switch.
As a Fanatec wheel owner, I like the fact that I know I haven't paid extra for a usb dongle I would never use.
I’m on the verge of buying this ready for dirt rally vr 2.0. Is it still functioning and how has the foam held up? Obviously I’ll be using your link like I always do with my fanatec purchases !
Hi Man,
nice review!
I'm a fanatec fan but i have not the hand brake! My friend have logitech g29 and he play PC. You tried to use the handbrake direct usb in pc ? (with the adapter). It work ? is possible to use G29 with this handbrake ?
Thanks a lot
Nyx
quite entertaining video, but when watching it, I‘m always waiting for him to offer us the 78-part-knife-set on top for an additional „only 9,95“ any second... 😜
did you have to buy the adapter to plug into your pc or were you able to plug it into your OSW? I plan on buying fanatic v3 pedals btw
thanks !
Sorry bud, but I just saw this and I got a question: how much space is between the shifter and the brake? Are you smashing your pinky knuckle if you shift into 6th or 7th?
the question still remains re handbrake .. Will it improve my ability to avoid titwinklers ? Great review mate..
I used to use the Sequential shifter function on my Logitech G25... but then they took that feature away... and gave you a shifter that was only H-pattern and charged you the same money .... then I had to use 4th gear on the regular g27 shifter (yea it was awkward) ... then they took away the shifter completely... and charged you the same money for only the pedals and the wheel... sufficive to say I'm now using a CSL Elite but since I literally had to remortgage my house to buy it (after shipping, exchange rate and import taxes which basically doubled the fucking listed price) ... I'm still without the money to buy a handbrake to go with it... much less a shifter.... the paddles are great but this is the one reason I'm not running Global Rally Cross in iRacing which is really fun ;(
Just try to build one yourself. I decided to try to do it after seeing the price of this handbrake. It's really expensive. I'm still thinking how am I going to do it. xD
got a joystick, tore off the handle and glued a bike handle on it. Now just looking for how to make it more strong/resistant. good, easy, cheap alternative tho
what if you cant assign the handbrake in assetto corsa? It appears its recognizing the handbrake because the bar turns yellow when you pull the brake but the white bar is stuck all the way to the left and doesnt move. the handbrake is plugged into the pedals.
Totally arcade sunlight. Other than that, great review. You are worthy of the best tea and the finest biscuits. Cheers.
FAKE NEWS
This sim rig is getting a bit bigger and bigger every month, how will one move it from the bedroom to bunker without damaging or unscrewing anything
ua-cam.com/video/x2fzmrmO2fU/v-deo.html
so if i buy this for my g29 and buy the adapter thing it will work on my ps4?
the price of this thing makes me want to build one myself
Did you end up building one?
price isnt that bad compared to the podium wheels or even the shifter lol
Would this work with a g29 on a PS4?
I too have the Fanatec CS shifter & handbrake. But, when I tried side mounting the HB to the side of the shifter like in your video, I kept hitting my knuckles on the HB shaft when shifting to higher gears. Are you using some kind of spacers?
bbcoltrane no just have ninja hands
Mine is not being detected, and when i pull it nothing happens. The computer recognizes it, but it says it is a shifter? Any tips for me?
Hi, is possible to change the stiffnes of the handbrake? like for the CS shifter SQ v1.5? thx good video
No.
where does the handbrake connection go to on csw base ,i have shifter 2 plug spare but thats all,there are no spare ports on clubsport pedals,ive ordered so hopefully i dont have to send back after fanatec didnt answer my question with any result im still in the dark as to how to connect!
So if I buy the adapter can I plug it into my pc and use it with a g29 steering wheel?
yes
I know this is late, but can you use it with the Thrustmaster TMX? I'm on PC btw
omazilla if you get the adaptor it makes it into a stand alone USB device.
can i use it with the logitech g29
Dose this work with the new csl dd?
Does it work whit loghitec g29
Does the Fanatec handbrake worth with forza horizon 3 on pc?
Hello:) what dimensions is the handbrake?
Did they release a new version? Mine hasn't got the logo and my box was black. I wonder...
It's v1.5
Would this work on my xbox one?
i've got a problem when i pull the handbrake the calibration is completly off it inputs 100% when im just halfway through the traveling of the handbrake
I think you can reconfigure it in Windows though the usb joystick properties screen 💪👍
@@GamerMuscleVideos Thank you for your answer even though this vid is 2 years old sadly it didnt work and its my handbrake that is probably faulty or I need to reset the maximum deadzone inside it
Does it work with Logitech G920 XBox
Does it work with logitech g929?
Also isnt the handbrake too close to the shifter????
I noticed you were playing some Dirt Rally... One question I have had is how you feel about the slidy handling of RFPE mod or the newer Alternate Physics mod.
I just play the default physics :) End of the day you can go from mod to mod same with RBR but they tend to just end up being "different" rather than better or worse on the whole within the grand scheeme of Dirt and RBR. I dont thing vanila dirt is perfect by all means but one thing I like about it is just loading it up without messing around and just smashing some stages out.
I'll have to try the mods out at some time though , got some RBR mods to test as well :)
Great videos as always just recently purchased the handbrake.
Using for the first time in WRC9 but finding it’s too sensitive and more like a button on/off switch.
Can you recommend settings for WRC9 to make it feel more progressive and less like a switch?
Any assistance appreciated keep up the good work!👍🏻
I'd add deadzone in the settings for the handbrake. Try 5% and increase to your liking
@@Stupendous855 thanks mate🙏🏻
@@bazz614 you're welcome 🙂
Is that in Fanatec settings or in game settings?
@@bazz614 in game settings
Can this be used with the Logitech G920 while using the extra dongle?
Were you able to figure this out? I'm currently looking for this answer
My hand brake is engaged when the lever is at resting position and handbrake is disengaged when I pull the lever. Any tips?
Re calibrate it ? Or invert the settings in the SIM you are playing
@@GamerMuscleVideos Thanks man! I found out the inversion was the problem. After I dissembled my entire rig and tried every port :/ lol. Worth the headache tho, it’s always a common problem
Why does my fanatec shifter not have a spot to mount the handbrake to the side like yours does? There are no screw holes on the either side
You use the slidy screw thingies and place them on the side then screw it onto them 👍
@@GamerMuscleVideos The T-nuts? I guess I'm not understanding because the T-nuts don't fit into the side of the shifter
I figured it out. You have to unscrew the bottom 4 corners first. Thanks for the reply though.
amazing video xDDD
Does anyone know the size of it?
Every time you FAP GamerMuscle earns some money.
Billionaire incoming.
Can I use it with the adapter with the logitech g923 on pc/ps4/ps5????
Did yo find any solution? I have g923 and im wondering if this is compatible with the extra cable and a handbrake?
Have they fixed that left-right lever play that v1.0 used to have??
Just gave it a wiggle , not feeling any left right play in mine, the metal bends a tiny bit but not enough that I have ever noticed it when driving.
No they have not.
can i play with this fenetec handbreak on my g29 racing wheel?
Yes if you buy the separate USB dongle that lets you plug it into the PC as a standalone device.
@@GamerMuscleVideos ok thx
In Assetto Corsa my Fanatec Handbrake is shown both as an analouge lever and a button !
I wonder if v1.5 does the same ?
What's the difference between v1 and v1.5
Does this work with csl elite on ps4?
yes, but depends on the game supporting it too - plugs directly into the wheel
@@Paradaz2990 cool thanks for the Reply
Just pulled the trigger on one, gonna mount it to my rig with 80/20.
How did it turn out? Itching to get one.
Yay!
Could I use this on my ps4 with a Logitech g29 wheel?
Nope, sorry pal
@@cjpccelerity29 IT SAYS PS4 READY ON THERE SITE?!
@@KID_SENSATION
Do not caps lock me pal. You *CAN NOT* use a fanatec handbrake on console without a fanatec wheelbase.
So to answer cosmixzYT's question *CORRECTLY*
*No it is not compatible with your G29 on PS4*
@@cjpccelerity29 THANKS BUD, ANYBRECOMMENDATIONS FOR A PS4 HANDBRAKE?
Ooo goody i can get a box a box and some foam
The joy of boxes 2018
skip to 7:41 to hear GamerMuscleVideos talk about how much force he uses in various situations when pulling his rod
Why do you have the handbrake and the shifter on the right side as you are from England. I'm going to install my shifter tomorrow and I was thinking with side to use. I'm not English but currently in UK that's why the question.
gizmundos most sims have a majority of left hand drive cars. It just makes sense to do it that way. I'm Aussie and i changed mine. Took a while to get used to but in vr the immersion is much better with shifter on the correct side.
gizmundos for me the main reason is that it's easier to film that side of the rig at the moment.
Personally it doesn't bother me using ether side never had an issue swapping over.
Beware, half plastic axle, over time destroys potentiometers even if you replace them. Get something else until there is a redesign from Fanatec.
Hello GM!
Hello mr Snoz
7:25 What 's game name??? Thanks
in case u havent figured it out yet (cuz I am responding 2 weeks later :P) it is project cars 2
@@JohnDoe-yc6nm Thanks for your information :))
👏👍👌🇳🇴
Just a shame it's not load cell.
4:35 :D
They should have allowed this for us heli simmers to have used it a basic helicopter collective in the horizontal position and an option to change the return spring for some sort of up down movement where the stick stays in the position you leave it. What a wasted opportunity Fanatec.
Using a button is "depressing". Like what you did there
Terrible design decision to us a 3.5mm jack plug sticking out of the bottom, my knee hits it all the time, why didn't they at least use one at an 90 degree angle so it is at least flush with the base. This is now becoming very loose over time, and the connection not very stable now causing fasle readings in the software. i think a different connector should have been used..
There is so little use for one though.
Yep its only really worth getting one if you are a rally/drift fan or maybe want to park on a hill and hold the hand brake manually.
For Rally, I find powersliding more reliable than using a handbrake.
Then again, it's probably just me 'cause my handbraking technique sucks.
If this device had support for the PS4/XBox One as well as just the PC I'd be all over it.
Until then I'll just use my spare TH8A shifter in analog handbrake mode for the PC sims I play.
If you plug it into a Fanatec wheelbase it will work on consoles
Yes, I've looked at that. I used to own the original CronusMax back when the PS4 first launched.
I used it to try and get my Logitech G25 wheel/pedals to work with the PS4, but it was too early in its development and never worked correctly.
I've seen good things about the DriveHub though.
I may pick one up so that I can use my T300RS Wheel & T3PA-Pro Pedals with my XBox One, and if it works well then I'll just sell my TX wheel.
some "company" from Poland advertises that their brakes are better and the handbrake fantec bends and is a cheap toy, what do you think about this GM?
they say "Unlike Fanatec, this handheld does not bend away from looking at it, it is definitely more solid. And it is much cheaper."
I have the HB 1.5 and I agree it's a poor design and not reliable. I had to mod mine to be reliable. Sorry to say, this piece of Fanatec kit is not bn880 approved.
0/10 review
*[not enough tea]*
*Your funny*
who is just here for the banging commentary not the bloody handbrake lol
Don't waste money on this. Buy the 80 dollar E Bay hand brake and be happy
3.5k for a full fanatec setup... yeah ill pass
mine doesn't even work and its brand new this is overpriced garbage
who the hell mounts handbreak verticaly. Train simulator much?
Can I just add that on most modern vehicles that have 4 sets of disk breakes handbreak weakly acts on all 4 wheels, so you cant really do the instant trolley magic. On some french cars handbreak acts on front wheels only, I assume they just want to see world burn a little bit. I find that simulator games give people very wrong ideas on how actual modern handbreak will work. Plus most of them are so weak they won't lock up the wheels (which is by design) unless you are driving on ice covered with dishwasher soap.
Rallying, drifting, hydraulic handbrakes are all vertical.
Hydraulic handbrakes have been around since the 80's at least.
名前 家名 99% of hand brakes are only on the back wheels. I've never seen a 4 wheel hand brake in my life. Also this hand brake is designed to simulate rally cars that are designed to lock up the rear wheels as well as drift cars which have a extra set of calipers in the rear just for the hand brake. You should leave the train simulators alone, they probably knew both those facts.
Does this work with g920???
