Very cool.
That sounds really great!
Very good price for this high end product! Congratulations & good luck!
That is a very good price, I was expecting it to be much higher based on the features and solid build quality.
At the moment, these are hand made. However, when we start to sell them, all of the aluminum pieces will be cut using a CNC machine. They will be assembled by hand, though.
Just a thought, as an added choice for people on a budget. Is it possible you supply all parts as a DYI kit to assemble at home? Probably saves in
some costs for you as well and allows even more people to have a go with these pedal sets. However, at this price, don't really know how much
you can realistically shave off though.. I imagine assembling a complete unit could already take three hours.
Awesome stuff about the Euro prices, thanks a bunch. I think a lot of people who were doubting about that have no reservations left.
Really curious as to what you changed on the clutch, also the reasons why. Are you planning to shoot a video about that?
Thanks for the update
About the loadcell, I'm indeed very curious what you mean there. As you probably know yourself the loadcell itself does nothing in terms
of feel, it's the system which presses down it which does, right? If I was a trained professional (keep on dreaming) who is used to braking at a 100kg, and setting
up the pedal to do just that, what happens when the loadcell breaks down/malfunctions? Replacement under warranty? A little headroom won't hurt, or having the choice for
it. I'll await your video on the subject though![]()
Cool stuff, curious to see itWe are planning on doing a video that should explain why we are changing the clutch mechanism. We found a much better way to handle the feel of a real clutch, and we wanted to implement this before release. Therefore, we are delaying the release just a bit until we have this new mechanism finalized.
That's a fair enough answer, if you want that kind of forces, maybe this pedal setup isn't for you, and that is fine, especially at this price point! Believe me I know how hard that is, as I know for a fact I can't press 100kg, let alone consistently throughout a raceYou are correct about the load cell. It's not the load cell's KG's that matter. It's all in how you set up the pedals. Keep in mind that if you're used to pressing on a brake pedal at 100KG's of force (not many people can actually do this during normal braking - it's much harder than you think), our brake pedal really wasn't designed to handle those kinds of forces. That said, you'll still be able to tweak the pedal so that you can press harder or softer and still maintain 4096 steps of resolution. I will go over this thoroughly in an upcoming video. Be sure to keep en eye out for that.

Congratulations!
Skimming through the calibration guide quickly, does this also mean you don't have to ' autocalibrate' (fully depress all of them once) the pedals in the sim anymore?
When I drove with a loadcell brake for a bit this was a pain in the ass because I was never sure to have reached a full press on that one.
Also, be ready to have questions coming in when they go for sale, about pedal plates to mount them on. Most people will be able to DIY them, but to have those
as an option won't hurt.
Thank you for keeping us informed, it shows your care and attention to detail. This is looking like it will result in a top shelf quality product and if you stick to your advertised price point, at a not top shelf price. I sure hope your able to get it all up and running and on the market.
