    Hi Noorbest & Yobuddy

    I created a post on the Iracing Forum that describes how I'm getting on with the Rig from Fasetech, ​

    would you know why when using Yaw, the simulator only turns on certain bends?
    have I got this set up wrong?

    I also done two Videos that can be run side by side so you can see what I mean - http://members.iracing.com/jforum/posts/list/3619733.page

    Simulator -

    Screen –


    To watch them in Sync side by side,
    First pause the screen video at 10 seconds, when the Simulator video reaches 25 seconds, unpause the screen video.

    Personally I suspect yaw and what you expect are two different things.

    Yaw, as a force, is a rotation around a center point and the most common time a race car experiences sustained yaw is in a spin, not a turn.

    Traction loss, the rear breaking out around a pivot point located forward of your feet, is the more common force a race car is subjected to during a turn, and is configured in SimTool using Extra 1.

    Thanks for the explanation,
    I will try and turn up the traction loss to see if that helps replicate the turn. I’m not quite sure even if that’s right, it just seems that when I turn into a bend the rig should turn in aswell.
