    Great review Karl, this is exactly what I've been looking for as I only have a limited budget. I just ordered the wheel stand, rear frame and XL RS Seat with your discount code all in £399 🙂👍🏻

    I'd still have to prefer the ART personally. This is an awesome cockpit still, but the ART is for the DIY guys, like me. Mine handles my T818 beautifully, with a ton of rigidity added. Prior I had used flat steel in a similar way to how you did way back when. Now I have square steel coming down the same way from deck to base, but in line with the existing steel. I left a tab out at my angle cut, hammered it down and welded it along with a nut on the inside to make sort of a threaded cap. Set it in place and now it could honestly probably handle the likes of the R21 and other high powered wheelbases. My next step is to add a platform it sits upon and add some 4 corner motion to it. Honestly might be able to retrofit a trakracer platform based on my measurements. After using it for years and years it is perfection if you want to upgrade and stiffen it as you upgrade your wheelbase. It also just has an awesome plethora of add-ons; sometimes available and always in low stock, but they're out there 😂 Excited to see what people come up with for this one though! Budget cockpits are always a good thing to see

    I think I prefer my ART with the additional steering support bars. Runs a Logi G Pro no problem.

    just what i ve been looking at this last week, i have the wheel stand and was thinking about getting the seat and rear frame , thx Karl. How comfortable are those seats tho

      I've ran their seats ever since I started sim racing so all good IMO.

    Nice review as always. Do you think changing the RS9 for a Chase Bucket seat can be more adjustable allowing to be in a more higher position?

    Bolt on cock-pit for a wheel stand. Not bad.

    It looks like your arms are a little too stretched out? Is there adjustment enough in the wheel deck to move the wheel a couple inches closer to you?

    • @KarlGosling
      @KarlGosling  20 днів тому +1

      It was all the way forward so yes plenty!

    Hmmm £100 more and you can get the Prime Lite and that's worth getting month 1 and month 2 and 3 getting a nice seat :P

    • @KarlGosling
      @KarlGosling  20 днів тому +2

      This is £220 and the Prime Lite is £400 mate (ignoring my discount), thats nearly double.

      @@KarlGosling Could have sworn it was £349 but I must have got it on a Discount plus your code took it even lower. But fair enough, I suppose also if you don't have the room this is a nice solution but I can't pimp a extruded rig enough as bolting on things and tinkering is so much easier ( and enjoyable lol)

    Looks like a great little setup to get going with. You cant raise the seat on my Titan either but it does look to be mounted quite a bit higher than that. I have the same seat, its an XL RS isnt it rather than an RS9?
    Great informative review as always mate. As Ive said previously I chose my rig after watching your review. You always have a knack of testing the things that actually matter to everyday use and comfort.

    • @KarlGosling
      @KarlGosling  20 днів тому

      Oh yes it is an XL RS, apologies!
