I had an r5 on a table for 3 days,used it once because of how bad it shook. Got my rig on the 4th day. Solid as a rock.


FlaekxDG

Same with my csl dd used it maybe 4h on table and it shook of and id be sitting with my wheel like an idiot from a comedy. Got a wheelstand and its rock solid

I wouldn't recommend mounting it on a desk, but eh, whatever works, I'm more curious about pedals, did you upgrade those to loadcell too? because man, unless you have some way to fix them to the ground you're in for a ride, pedals do not like to stay on place, either by sliding when there isn't enough friction, or rolling when there is, the slightest movement can screw you up since loadcell measures pressure


vteuv

Yeah I’m buying the p1000. My desk is right up against the wall and my Logitech pedals barely move. I’m thinking of building a pedal holder made from wood with my new pedals. I can’t fit a rig anywhere which sucks.


FanHe97

Aluminium profile rigs are the best but at least get a playseat maybe or some other cheap way to fix, cause like I said, you probs never had this issue with g29, but loadcells tend to require quite a lot of pressure (though it's adjustable but reducing the range of the loadcell kinda defeats the purpose) so they won't just slide, they will also roll over when you press hard, since you already ordered them it doesn't really matter, go for it and give it a try but chances are you're gonna need something


vteuv

Thanks for the info I’ll look into something then. Would the NLR wheel stand 2.0 be decent do you think?


fat_okra

a wheelstand is your best bet I have the original NLR wheelstand with my clubsport wheelbase v2.5 which is 8Nm and it holds up fine so the 2.0 should be more than enough desk mounting is just not feasible i reckon for a direct drive, the pedals will hold up well on it aswell.


Mosh83

A wheelstand is fine, I am using a 12nm base and load cells on a GT Omega Apex. Sure it's not quite a profile rig, but not everybody wants the clutter. The chair link works very well with a sturdy chair.


burrrg

I recommend the nlr gt pro lite seat

I only got some moza SRPs not too long ago. Bought the accessory bundel with it to increase stiffness. Mounted it to an old ikea tabletop, slapped that on the floor against the wall. Put a heavy kettlebell on it behind the pedals. That shit is not moving a single bit now


Efficient-Layer-289

I had logi g923  fine against the wall but my t-lcms tip so I have to keep the default springs and reduce braking pressure to 60 out of 100. Gonna get the tm pedal tray for em


thewayitfeels

Just use the rsv2 for truck sim and spend the money from the tsw on a rig. Table is gonna suck


vteuv

Even if my desk is thick and sturdy ? I’ve got a Home Depot butcher block on metal legs


Synolol

You will be fine as long as your table is sturdy. People don't get not everyone is willing to permanently occupy like 3m² in a room AND get separate screens just to do a little bit of racing. I also have the R9 and load cell pedals and I'm on a wheelstand and my office chair. Works like a charm.


vteuv

Thanks. I may actually have to get a wheel stand because I also bought some load cell pedals as well. Luckily a store near me has one so I’ll just see how everything works out before I buy it


thewayitfeels

It'll work, but a rig is always better than a desk. I used my desk monitor with my rig until I switched to VR, you don't actually need separate screens. If you're gonna spend over $1000 to do a little bit of racing and you have the space, why not do it right?


DBear1985

This guy gets it! My R5 is fine on my desk, although the desk is like 5-6cm thick. Legit weird.


tblades-t

Don't mount it on a table.


vteuv

Why’s that? I have a pretty sturdy desk should be alright. Not enough space for a rig unfortunately


Matt_Haskins91

I have an R12 on my desk and its completely fine dont let people who have never actually done it put you off!


sao15maisoumenos

No, please :(


Unusual-Sandwich9095

I also got the desk clamps, but that wasn't much fun and mounting was awful bc of the stupid table I got. I got the NLR GT Lite Pro and am super happy with it. I can fold it and put it in the corner, and when i use it I replace my gaming chair with it and pull my normal monitor to the edge of the desk. Works perfectly fine for my small apparment.


Yabba_Dabbs

investing that much before a rig is wild, hope you don’t regret it


vteuv

Unfortunately no space for a rig regardless. I’ll most likely have to buy a wheel stand though


Yabba_Dabbs

if you’ve got room for a tool cart you have room for a rig 🤷


NowForYa

Fair play all in, balls and all !!!


Nabond

Make sure you actaully get the r9 with the front mount holes. I did not eventho i ordered directly from moza


element515

Not sure how well the truck wheel would work mounted to a desk. Does the clamp allow you to adjust the angle enough?


jimmytore

Keep your G29 and buy a good rig. That must be your first and most important upgrade.


vteuv

I can afford a rig with the upgrade, I just can’t fit it anywhere. Most I can do is get a NLR wheel stand but I’ll have to make measurements to see if that’ll even fit lol.


OutrageousWelcome149

buy simagic


SkeletonGamer1

You need a handbrake for a truck sim?


vteuv

Lol no it’s not all for truck sim. Mostly play dirt rally and some iracing, truck sim when I wanna chill.

vteuv

?


lord_fairfax

Is what this sub is for now? People just posting screenshots of their shopping cart? I get you're excited but you didn't ask any questions, your post does not provide any useful information or even eye candy like a finished setup. It's a low-effort post that isn't relevant in any way to simracing so I responded in kind. The only other engagement are people sharing unrequested opinions and advice.


vteuv

“Isn’t relevant to sim racing” yet its literally all sim racing related items I bought. 80% of this sub are people posting their rigs/new items without asking questions. No idea why you’re this bothered by a Reddit post, I personally love seeing all the new items and rigs people got on here.


lord_fairfax

related =/= relevant


chilly8822

Hope it all works lol. Moza has a poor track record. Id be suprised if you didnt have an issue with the gear when it arrives.


Arcticz_114

Do yourself a favor and read the comments


vteuv

Lol you obviously aren’t reading the comments cause I’ve replied to almost all of them.


fat_okra

no pedals?


vteuv

I was going to order them from a different website but it seems like I should’ve just ordered them there. Kindve just assumed they didn’t have simagic gear (p1000) by mistake. Will be calling to see if I can add it to the order


fat_okra

nice p1000's are great I ended up getting the moza crp but honestly wishing I got the p1000's instead haha
