Installing software provided by DofReality went without a hitch and actually getting the rig to move was really straightforward. The P3 rig has more powerful motors with integrated step down gearboxes For a similar price for the SimXperience traction loss frame we could have a 3 DOF rig giving pitch & roll and the traction loss we were looking for.Īfter getting the green light from she who must be obeyed, and a number of questions to DofReality who responded to our questions very quickly, my friend and I ordered 2 of the DofReality P3 rigs. That’s when we came across the DofReality website. We hit on the idea of having traction loss which would give us a little more feedback and improve our experience, and was initially looking at buying the SimXperience traction loss frame and mounting the Obutto onto that frame somehow. Iv’e been sim racing for a couple of years now and running a mixture of equipment, ECCI 7000 FFB, SimFai Solutions custom wheel, HPP PRX-SE pedals and a couple of Thrustmaster TH8A shifters, all mounted onto a Obutto R3volution rig and projecting onto a screen.Īll was well in my sim racing universe until one afternoon when a friend and I was searching the net for ways to make our sim racing experience a little more immersive. Let me give you my take on the DofReality P3 rig I purchased. With the great support (Igor to name him), Most interesting thing after all, when I have DOF turned off,Įven with the FFB wheel, it feels like dead -) The software setup with the provided presets is just easy. I think, it is more like in real car, where you are forced to/from the wheel, too. The wheel is an OSW with small Mige, which is installed on a seperate frame. One week for the delivery itself, pretty fast. The whole process took only four weeks from building to the delivery to me in Germany. It is affordable and after reading further, it sounded good to me and I contacted DOF Reality. I have been interested for a long time in such a system, butĪ DIY build was due to lack of time, tools and knowledge not an option for me.Īfter some days of intensive researches, I came across this product and got interested. For the price, this is by far the BEST there is. Even tho the movement is slight, its still enough to trick the brain and bring back motion sickness all over again – that’s right- its like staring in VR for the first time, all over again ?. HELL YES in VR it gives a level of emersion which is a must have. Slow movements are always in line with the motion and the high turns left then right again. I’m sure some will prefer to mount the sensor on the chair, and you can but I use the rift for other games so that really isn’t an option for me. In response, you may be right but I always tilt my head with the horizon and as such I haven’t noticed the sensor motion. I have my sensors mounted in the corner of the room, not on the platform itself, some have argued this could affect the vr motion. The bolts provided are quality and 3 weeks after the build, they haven’t budged, so a thumbs up from me ?Īfter placing my order the platform was built and shipped within 2 weeks, I believe they build to order rather than carry stock, and this makes sense.īeing as this is the only platform I have ever used, for me it is truly amazing, even tho the platform moves 20-30 degrees. Well I’m not a fan of flat pack furniture but like most I always manage to get the job done, This build took me about 3 hours. The connectors – There are 4, 2 per motor and you can’t get this wrong as they are colour coded, the connectors are strong and I cannot see these getting broken anytime soon.

The box has good ventilation at the top with two grills and the rear of the box has two fans.Īs a note, the packaging was exceptional. So this seems to use a couple of Monster boards and an andrino for the control of the platform, the power comes from two linked power units. Well its a metal frame platform frame with decent stability, the design has been thought out and upgraded to give the best balance and stability.Ī solid pair of of motion platform motors and decent Potentiometers that seem really solid. I have had this chair for a month and so far I LOVE IT, it’s a solid well-built platform which can withstand my 17 stone weight with ease!!!! It can handle upto 150kg
