Show us your Rig / Cockpit

[Kevin Cordice]

That looks cool but I have a feeling it's going to get you in trouble

I'm already looking at other options for this but it's a start

In my rig (with the top and sides covered. I like it because i feel much more inmersive, even with only one screen Tv32" )

 

[Paul Mullins]

Carlos - do you have any photos of the covering you can show us?

I'm looking to make a roof but something moveable so was thinking of black foam board or similar...Be very interested to see yours Carlos

After 5 years of use, there has been time to change the old Rinoseat

for something newer

 

[Turbolover]

New setup with the Steelseries SRW-S1 wheel mounted to the G27 base. I use the SLI-M emulator for android, and a FOV camera mod when racing F1 2012.

Hera a few photos of my rig updated ( Cockpit Genesis).

I want to buy a new graphic card and 3 screens Ips 27", but for now, with the rig closed, a distance between my eyes to the screen of 70 cm and correct FOV, the immersion is great. (And despite having only one TV 32").

Damn. Your hood is bigger than mine.

Finished modifying my Clubsports today.
I hated everything about my normal CSP's, but mostly the angle. Since I have my feet raised to an LMP standard the angle was rediculous, therefore made them 90 degrees.
This is my easy cheap fix until I can make some proper pedals with less travel distance.
Couldn't figure out what to use as pedal stops when the pressure is taken off, got it figured out.
Everything was kept to a Keep It Simple Stupid method, use what you have and spend your money on better things (in my case some serious DIY LMP pedals soon enough, or the baby due in the next few weeks).
If anyone is interested, I haven't made proper pedal faces yet. Likely just going to make taller skinny extensions of the normal pedal, since they are only about 6 inches and that's only halfway up my foot.

Note my new 1/18 Stig Figure. I was super excited until I pulled him out and his left foot stayed in the container. Haven't got to glueing it back on yet. He deserves his new home instead of his plastic coffin he's been living in.

Here is my old cockpit:

More photo in this Web Player

And here is a new, PVC one,

designed to meet all kind of driving positions, even a F1:

Here is a 3D walk around of the cockpit:

Quick rig update. I moved my man-cave around a bit today, while clearing it up. Decided to take a few snaps while I was there.

Essentially not much has changed.

The PC is a 2600k, with 16gb ram and an AMD 7970.

The rig consits of:
Nixim chassis
3x 23" monitors mounted on a Novatech monitor stand
Logitech 5.1 speakers
Fanatec Clubsport Wheel with BMW & Formula rims
Fanatec Clubsport Pedals (v1)
BMW E39 sequential shifter (plugged into the CSW)
Thrustmaster TH8 RS shifter (can be mounted on either side, hence two 'mounts')
Buttkicker mounted into the base of the seat foam (see here: http://***********/bkngxyk )
SLI Pro (using simsli software)

Here's a few pics:

It's not right yet. I want to flip the pedals upside down, add another buttkicker into the back of the seat, and bigger monitors.. I'd like to go for a motion rig at some point, too.
Still, it's fun.

 

[Paul Mullins]

Two questions Alex:

1) How did you interface your shifter to the CSW base?

2) Which wheel do you prefer using? The formula wheel or the BMW wheel? I have the BMW wheel only and wonder if it's worth pulling out another filtering organ and getting the formula wheel

Here is my wip modded rSeat.

This is me and my cockpit in action. I use a Optoma HD200X for to get a 70" screen, with 65º of vertical FOV.

When I recorded that video I had a G27, but now I have a great T500RS.
