    Hello everyone

    My brother is having birthday soon and I would like to gift him something unique and useful for his hobby - rally sim rig.

    A little bit of what he already has:
    • 3dof with linear actuators
    • Sim motion controller (I think Thanos)
    • Custom made handbrake
    • Custom made pedals
    • G29 logitech wheel with H-shifter
    • And then some wires connected to a USB box. I think he is trying to connect some Segment Displays etc
    I unfortunately cannot provide pictures but I would be very much appreciated if you could give me your suggestions.
    "What would you like to have, when you just started. It can be either a tool or out-of-the-box solution"

    Keep in mind, I am electrical/software engineer, so when it comes to building something, its not a problem at all.

    Best regards and thank you very much ;)

    Couldn't agree more, just added one to my rig (done of unneeded PC speakers) makes a lot of difference, great value for moneys...

    Also as far im big fan of G29 anything like Fanatec Clubstport will be massive upgrade...
