      @@snoopy_peanuts_77 Terrible, I sent it back for a refund. For starters it took me over an hour to download the software. Once I installed that I found it wouldn't recognise the base. Contacted Cammus support and they talked me through how to force flash new firmware. Did that multiple times which didn't fix anything. Support stopped replying to my messages. After a week of trying to get the base recognised I thought I'd set up the pedals and see how good they were. Wasn't able to calibrate the brake and clutch so I was at the end of my teether and contacted the seller and told them the Cammus bundle was junk and I wanted my money back. With the refund I brought a Moza bundle and couldn't be happier.

    I think they wasted opportunity, if they made the middle cover with hole in the middle and right thickness it could then be used as a spacer. Really tempting this wheelbase

    Another option, is to attach the paddle shifters on the inside and use spacers with longer screws to move them towards the wheel.

    My only "gripe" with this wheelbase is the fact the wheel itself is not at least 32cm; wish it was those 2cm bigger

    • @HazewinDog
      @HazewinDog 4 місяці тому

      Same... it just feels a bit uncomfortable to use small wheels. I want to save money and go for the C5, but it has a 280mm rim! I don't care about swapping rims, but I would like at least a 300mm wheel, preferably 320mm...

    There’s an addition postage fee which raises the price by $50 for UK folk. Factor in the bracket and you may want to look at other option. I have a C5 though and I like it. But this thing has an average torque of 12nm, not peak like the others, so bear that in mind if your doing comparisons.

    • @HazewinDog
      @HazewinDog 4 місяці тому

      still €45 cheaper all-in than the Fanatec 5Nm, which is the 3rd cheapest DD wheel available. Of course the C5 is the cheapest at €240 cheaper all-in than the Fanatec. Prices include the 'optional' clamp for the Cammus wheels and the cheapest rim and QR for the Fanatec. The Fanatec 8Nm is an additional €100.

  • @HazewinDog
    @HazewinDog 4 місяці тому

    I might be buying this... either this or the C5. Who in Europe would buy a Fanatec 5Nm when for €45 less you can get the C12, or for €240 less you can get the C5? (full wheel, including 21% tax, shipping cost and for the Cammus also including the 'optional' mount)

    I need to be able to quickly change rims, so it’s not for me, but it’s hard to argue with the value.

      Actually, you can mount a quick release because it’s a universal bolt pattern on top. Douglas Thompson has done videos on this on his sim racing channel.

    @Leynad778 4 місяці тому +5

    Smart concept, but not smart to buy it. Shifters and buttons are far more prone to fail than servo-motors, so it's always better buying both separate. And another reviewer had already failing buttons within hours assuming that the PCB is getting to hot inside. Also what's the service-situation with Cammus? Sending the hole unit to China for RMA in case a button or shifter-paddle fails, maybe even on your own expenses, doesn't seem pleasant for the customer.

    • @SerialDriver

      Shifter modules and buttons are easy to replace. Cammus send them if you have a problem

    • @HazewinDog
      @HazewinDog 4 місяці тому +2

      I don't know where you got this info. Cammus' own website says they provide repair kits should you need them, though they also allow you to send the wheel in if you do not wish to perform repairs yourself.
