Thanks a lot for your support! US: https://fanatec.com/us-en/cat/index/s... EU: https://fanatec.com/eu-en/cat/index/s... AU: https://fanatec.com/au-en/cat/index/s... JP: https://fanatec.com/ja-en/cat/index/s... Today we're very excited to be sharing with you our first detailed hands on look at the Fanatec CSL DD! There has been a massive amount of hype surrounding this product, and thanks to your support we have been selected to be one of the first to put it to the test and share our opinions. The aim today is to use this pre-production sample answer as many questions as we comfortably can, and arm you with as clear a picture as possible prior to reviewing the final production version. We’ll be taking a look at the experience with the standard 5NM rated power supply, as well as the upgraded Boost Kit 180 which unlocks the CSL DD’s full potential of 8NM. We’ll take a look at the driving experience when mounted on the same high end cockpit we use for all our other wheel base reviews, as well as some cheaper mounting options, along with the optional Table Clamp Accessory to determine if the CSL DD is worth it for those not ready to step up to a more expensive cockpit, and of course compare the driving experience based on our personal experience to that of some other common wheel bases including Fanatec’s CSL Elite, ClubSport WheelBase 2.5 and of course the Podium DD1 and DD2, as well as some other relevant wheelbases from other brands. We’ll also spend some time explaining some of the terms you’ve no doubt heard being referenced such as Direct Drive, Fidelity and Dynamic Range. By the end of this article, our hope is you’ll have a clearer picture of whether or not the CSL DD is right for you! -------------------------------- EXTRA INFO: -------------------------------- Written article available HERE: https://boostedmedia.net/sim-racing/h...
