and now

the most important test, the test of wheel stability, made by sokko

copied here:

Last night I moved the monitor to our dining table. I even put white towel on the table with the wheel touching it to "amplify" wheel movement if there are any. I had to make the video with my Logitech webcam because handycam requires firewire which I dont have on my current setup. It would take another day to transfer it to computer.

The test was made with GTR2, NGT class - TVR 400 on Imola track. Forcefeedback settings are:
- effects: High
- strength: 90%

Video 1:

Video 2:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTeVO...er_profilepage

First video shows approx 2 laps around the track. I wasnt very gentle with the throttle to cause oversteering and wheel actions. Also, I tried to use curbs whenever I could to maximize vibrations. It is easier to look at the towel movements because whell seems rock solid.

Second video shows me shaking wheel stand with both my hands and all my strength. Yes, it moved but at that moment whole rig has moved because I moved my whole body.

here is the first review from France: www.rinoseats.com/pdf/Test01RinoseatGTR2011.pdf


i received many emails with questions regarding the bucket seat in rinoseat
so, here is the answer

- the seat in Rinoseat GTR is hardcore looking bucket seat with increased comfort and size with a little changed shape of this seat:
http://www.recaro.com/en/produ ... us-pole-position-fia.html
- strong support for the shoulder and a big decline seat back, release the power in back and pushing the driver hands on the steering wheel (both together eliminates back pain)
- it gives you a sense of security and balance, a sense of real car racing
- i spent many days in looking for properly position of C style seating
- experimenting, i got unique feeling of sitting: "feel the race"
- seat cover is made of a material that "breathes", so there is no sweating

Quote from Coxis :

renorino, do you guys have a north american distributor?

no, but we send by post (by plane) from Europe to US (7 days)

rinoseat is lightweight and packed into the small box 64cmx54x15cm/12kg, so the transport cost is not too high

Nadam se ce ce uskoro i nekakva prezentacija novog kokpita pa ako planiras dobro bi bilo da znas da ekipa CROtm-a ima okupljanje u Zagrebu pocetkom 3 mjeseca,u slucaju da si u mogucnosti organizirat prezentaciju samo javi (mozes i u ovom threadu jer ga konstantno pratim)

poslan PM

Quote from aimbottle :

@renato: Are you going to varnish the final version, or will it be just the raw materials like it is now?

If you'll paint it: which colors will you use and which color will have the seat itself?

:smileyrai

Initially
Frame ... black or gray - powder coating
Seat ... black or black with red

Special edition: frame=black with orange - seat=black (like Fanatec wheel GT3)

Later
Any color ... option

Quote from TIXX74 :

I assume the price is inclusive of the seat?

g25/g27/fanatec/frame + seat + g25/g27 shift holder = 299EUR + transport (EU...50EUR) = 349EUR

for all pre-orders up to 31.03.2010 ... discount = 30EUR ... 299EUR-30EUR = 269EUR + transport (EU...50EUR) = 319EUR


final seat will be such http://www.recaro.com/index.php?id=5810&region=3&L=2
you can now compare the shape of recaro seat and rinoseat (shape are the same)


rinoseat is not a small toy



seating position and feeling similar to this

Quote from aimbottle :

...Could you please explain "better sense of wheel FF vibration" a bit more? I tried the old seat a few times and really liked the feeling when the ffb kicked in...

steering wheel is directly connected to the tube (no wood, no rubber, no plastic - only metal)


tubes are large and hollow (echo effect as in a cave) and the merged firm compounds without clearance

rinoseat touches flooring in only two points - everything else is in the air and the vibrate



...better sense of wheel FF vibration...

easier: imagine rinoseat as one tube - hits one end of the tube - seat on the other side - you feel vibrations

Quote from aimbottle :

...Can't wait to see picures/videos of the final product...

we are adjusting to simrace this (increased comfort): http://www.recaro.com/index.php?id=5810&region=3&L=2
