    I have 4 of the older sim wind fans and they’re great and I really like them
    However I can’t honestly say they’re even close to being reasonably priced
    At the end of the day they’re just regular pc fans and a usb hub and I think they’re pricing them high knowing that sim racers are used to spending a lot of money on their setups and they know we will pay it
    Just my opinion.

    Thank you very much for another great review Barry.
    In these wind kit reviews, it would be very helpful if you could record a small clip of the noise produced by them, so we can get an idea of what to expect.
    I built myself a wind system with some very expensive and supposedly silent Delta fans and the system is incredibly loud.

    • @boriskey7841
      @boriskey7841 Рік тому

      I just got SRS kit and man it is way too loud even at 25%. I wish they mentioned that in the reviews. It is literally like jet engine going on and off and trust me everyone will scream at you in your household to shut them off. Going to test a little more running them at 15% but at low 5-6 rpm they also make whining noise that you can hear through headphones.

    I ordered and received the SRS "Hurricane" Power Wind Kit Package. I have been playing with it for about two weeks. Overall I like it. My only gripe is that I wish the fans would\could ramp up faster (maybe I will set a minimum power setting of 2% to give them a head start). When they do get up the speed, they are awesome. They also stop fast enough when I slow down, they just do not ramp up as fast as I would like. But again, overall, I like it.
    I found that I do not have to run them at 100% either. 50%-60% is fine. 100% is too much and can actually make me cold while driving. I also aim the fans towards my shoulders. Pointing directly on me is too much and can actually also make me cold while driving.
    I do not use car specific settings, that is too much to keep up with. I just set the overall Simulator top speed to 400kph, Wind Curving to level 8, out of 10, overall fan power to 50% and that is good enough for me.
    The Wind Curving is awesome when in VR. IMHO, this Wind Sim rocks!

    • @Wodz30
      @Wodz30 2 роки тому

      The problem is that you are not wearing a full racing suit, that is why you are getting cold. Racing helmet, gloves, full suit. Then you would be working up a proper sweat and THIS is what these fans are meant for LOL

  • @slappy76
    @slappy76 2 роки тому +3

    Interesting to hear your thoughts about their Wind Curving as not being very noticeable in practice. Which makes sense because most corners are fairly quick and by the time the fans passively spin down, you're already out of the corner. This is the one "feature" that is unique to them and why they charge as much as they do. If this is the case then I will probably go the DIY route and use Simhub's (donate-as-you-wish) software and save myself a hundred bucks (or more).
    Maybe I'm paranoid but I'm not crazy about how their housing needs to have threads cut by you using the 1/4-20 screw instead of a nut molded into the plastic. Seems like a recipe for over-torqued screws that chew up the plastic.

    Barry I think your explanation of the Default Max Speed setting was not quite accurate. My understanding is that the software will assume that speed is the max speed of the car to map the actual airflow based on the car's speed until you've done some laps and the software can tune it to the car's max speed based on telemetry.

    • @gmerariu
      @gmerariu 2 роки тому +1

      It would be good to Barry’s thoughts. I have both and have been using motion house because the wind area has a larger wind zone which feels more realistic. The diameter of the SRS wind zone is smaller which makes the wind feel a little more like a fan blowing than wind. That said, I am going to try srs again.
