Want to dip my toe into tactile feedback - Buttkicker Mini-CT

Lloyd Johnston · Oct 26, 2020

Hi all, I'm looking to get started with tactile feedback but really just wanted to grab something ready to go.

Anybody ever use the Buttkicker Mini-CT that comes with this kit?

I've got a profile based rig, so thought this could be a good starting option.

Would it be stupid to buy 2 for left and right effects or should I just buy something else?

Cheers for any advice.
Lloyd.

I've one of those bolted to the rear middle under my seat (actually attached to the rig) ... absolutely love it. (i've motion too, but the shaker adds the road texture and shift 'kicks' in the cars, rumble strips etc.)

Not sure how effective two would be - I can feel the rumble in my wheel rim as it travels through the profile, so not sure how easy to determine each side.

I'd buy one and see how you get on.
