Simucube 2 Discussion Thread

Simucube 2 is still a young product, and while the Reconstruction Filter is still about the same as in Simucube 1, we have now much more processor power available to implement more advanced filters in the future. There has not been sufficient time to develop those yet.

Also, reconstruction filter does not induce lag. However, it does induce overshoots which can show up as lag in kerb hits etc.

Mmm not with my settings… Nor with my SC2…

I can let the rim go at Spa straight with the RUF and the tires keep the inertias to the front. Same with VW bettle on dirt

thnx for that info mika :smiley: that helps me a lot in understanding reviews about this product ;D simracegarage still has no clue how to set a simucube 1 or 2 up with good settings imho.
and the rest of the reviewers can only be way worse :smiley:

i recommend the new people also with sc2 to watch this video which explains it all, and since its all the same for now its a good point to start with this info and use this a baseline setting for any racegame not just iracing

Dont Know why all recomendations points to 100% Overall Force on Profile and then tune down iRacing FFb…

I can feel the diferencie between iRacingAUTO-ProfileDown and tuned Profile at 100% then iracing FFb tuned down. The last feels death on the center, the forces are not scaled…

Hello
Is there a battery in the wheel base which is for power supply of the Bluetooth and which should be replaced over time?

Wheel base receiver runs from the same regulator as the rest of the electronics - no batteries there.

Thanks!
I asked because of that:


@SKeijmel I am totally with you on this one. I don’t understand anyone using iracing, no irffb and setting recon on low values. Horrible hacksaw and nothing to do with the feeling you have on a real racerim.

The recon filter of simucube is the best thing in the whole package.

Hi,

Can you please guide how to setup irFFb?
would like to try it

For a short test just install vjoy and then irFFB, choose 360hz interpolated. No fiddling required.

But if you use recon at 8 you don’t need irffb imo. It adds inputlag and the sc2 is sooo direct on its own it would be a shame to induce artificial lag.

well i’m on 5. but everybody is sooo happy a this irFFb :smile: and as i’m new to DD would like to try all things with it to understand it better

Testing Recon Filter @8 on Spa with the RUF, dont Know what it does but I dont have road feel and only feeling dampened bumps, overshoots like Mika said…
SC2 and TrueDrive here, dont have SC1 and dont want to Know about them

You have your ffb strength so low you will never feel anything there is no hope for you alfye… you dont even wanna learn from the people who know their stuff.

You are driving with a hacksaw and you think that noise Is feedback

Maybe you need recon at 8 on an SC1 but you certainly don’t with an SC2. I’m currently switching between 5 and 6 with iRacing.

Mika said the filter is the same. So i can bet you need the same settings. the games signal is the bottleneck not the motor. And the better motor from the sc2 is not going to make a crappy signall smoother by itself. Unless the sc2 does some more filtering somewhere else :wink: maybe mika can confirm that it does or not.

Hey Mika
Is Ultimate have additional filters in the software like promised? Ore it’s not ready yet?

You can work as hard as you can guessing about the SC2 but without a SC2 on your hands, its only that, assumptions.

Recon Filter at 8 on SC2 sport is a crappy mess of dampened big bumps loosing any feel on the tires. Im uploading a video showing my driving skills on IRacing dirt track.

its no guessing mika already confirmed the recon filter is still the same. the sc2 is nothing more than a sc1 with a better processor and everything built into the motor except the power supply. And an all in one package coming from them instead of people building and selling kits.

And the better cpu will give you better filtering options lateron when they develop it. so far its not much more than a sc1 with a different motor but with a better cpu and a few more sliders :wink:

Seb, In my videos I mention that Recon Filter at 5 on SC2 is feeling the same as 8 on SC1. Whilst the Recon-filters are not much different between the two firmwares, the faster electronics, in conjunction with other filters used in SC2, makes a direct comparison not that easy.

The faster processors, combined with the newer filters, indeed makes a rather substantial difference vs SC1…

oehhh thats a whole something different “not much different”
So what @phillip.vanrensburg says you would need atleast rcon 5 on a sc2 according to my standard :wink:
but faster electronics can not make a bad 60hz signal better by itself even if it go’s faster with less latency

But lets make it clear that people here running rcon 1 or 2 here are still driving with a hack saw :wink:
