Here is a review by someone in France too, so I guess there are more out there:
That’s the JCL (reseller)'s demo unit.
Cheers Mika. I will anyway do another vid this morning, this time in the BMVoo M8 at Gilles Villeneuve. A super-fun combination, hopefully I can do a few laps and keep it off the walls.
Hopefully Mrs Beano will make me a nice bacon/egg/avo brekkie quickly, then off to do some driving
Have any devs got units to try or are you thinking about this? Im shocked by the amount of them that have never used a DD or are using what would be considered old wheel bases by todays standards.
Ultimate wheel. Ultimate breakfast.
You really know how to rub it in
I see that power cords extensions are included. Nice touch, thanks for saving us hassle of searching for one.
I am spoilt, it was a good brekkie Video uploading, will link once it’s done!
Ha, here is another video from this morning, hopefully I am not boring the chit out of you guys
BMW M8 GTE at Gilles Villenueve:
SC2 beta-FW 0.50.6
D = 25
F = 15
I = 50
Recon Filter = 5
Slew-rate = OFF
Center Damping = 30
Center Angle = 1deg
LL = 20
Torque Reduction 15
Specific output at 0.595 (32NM servo, 54 slider)
Of course not boring, but some footage from the Pro would be great, too.
I can’t test the Pro currently, Jackie, awaiting the new all-servo mounting-plate…only then, apologies
no problem. I am looking forward to the comparison between ultimate and pro as soon as the plate is there.
Are the bolts and nuts to attach the motor to a rig included in the package as well, or do we need to source our own? If so, what bolt lengths (assuming it’s M8 size) and what kind of nuts do you advise?
I’d be surprised if they included any, length is going to be dependant on what you’re mounting it to.
I know my SimLab P1 came with the correct length M8 bolts for attaching my SS2, what rig are you mounting the SC2 on?
The Sport and Pro needs M8 bolts only, as the mounting holes are threaded, so no nuts needed. The Ultimate needs nuts and bolts though.
I think you will have to source your own 4x M8 bolts, as the length will vary depending on your mount. I would estimate bolt-length to be the thickness of your plate plus 15mm.
I’ve purchased some M8x22mm and M8x25mm bolts to attach the motor to the mount which gives me some choice on whether to add locking nuts or not.
If you are mounting the motor bracket to 80/20 then you’ll need bolts long enough to cover the thickness of your bracket plus the depth of the channel which is 14mm in my case.
I have the Heusinkveld rig, just finished building it actually
They did supply some M8x30mm bolts which are marked as “OSW” mounting bolts. The front mounting bracket the wheel gets attached to is 10mm thick.
That will be fine, I guess those are 16-25mm long? Will be good either way
Hopefully a few asia customer reviews popup to wet our lips and keep us EU buyers going while we wait.
Yep, fingers crossed
And those in the US patiently waiting for our ultimate.
