For the past month I've been testing the Fanatec DD1 and DD2 back to back against the Simucube 2 Sport and Pro, as well as asking the sim racing community for their questions, and drawing upon my extended experience with the DD2 and Simucube 2 Ultimate to put together a series of review videos on each product. Today we conclude the series with my experiences, observations and conclusions from testing all of these wheelbases. Still on the fence about which will best suit your needs? This video is for you. ___________________________________ Time Stamps: Intro: 0:00 Build Quality & Reliability: 4:05 Ease of Use & Setup: 9:36 The Ecosystems: 13:09 Force Feedback Quality: 15:13 Value For Money: 21:07 Final Conclusions: 21:50 ___________________________________ GRAB YOUR FANATEC GEAR HERE: US: https://boostedmedia.net/go/fanatec-webstore-u-s-a/ EU: https://boostedmedia.net/go/fanatec-webstore-europe-english/ AU: https://boostedmedia.net/go/fanatec-webstore-australia/ JAPAN: https://boostedmedia.net/go/fanatec-webstore-japan-english/ GRAB YOUR SIMUCUBE HERE: If you'd like to purchase a Simucube Wheelbase and help support Boosted Media in the process at no additional cost to yourself, purchasing from Digital Motorsports using the following link will send a small commission our way to help keep the channel running.

So today I have both models here in the studio to not only compare from a feature set perspective, but pull them apart to compare the hardware internally and go for a drive back to back to see exactly what the differences are, and which offers the better value for money.
