    ​ @brandongardner404 Don't delete my comment when it is not in your favor. I'm saying this as someone that works or worked one to one with many FD and DMEC drivers and many more. Group coaching sessions will only help the extrovert people that like to talk in a group environment. The rest will not engage enough to benefit from it. This is already being done in every team or organization discord or even in the public server chats, people give tips and tricks to each other. As you guys know setups are very personal stuff based on cars, rig setups, wheel settings that people use and there is no "right" setup in general. If you guys were to say you will help people make a setup for themselves. Like if someone has an upcoming competition and need a setup that suits them the best. You could guide them based on their feedback in a one to one session -which is also being done by many people- but at least you guys could be one of them. So I am conflicted in this one when it comes to how it will benefit people other than interacting with people they follow and like the content of or the guests you guys might get in a call that may or may not want to talk to them in a friendly manner.

    To be clear, your previous comment had no base of context/fact. Therefore, I felt it was inappropriate and deleted it. You then post another comment which is negative and have not context to what I do, but I will let it stay posted because I feel you do have some points. First off though... DO NOT say "tHiS iS fOr ThE pEoPLe" when you have the same concept of business that I have. You too also sell service based items as well as digital asset based products, so DO NOT act like you're saying this "fOr ThE pEoPLe." You trying to undermine the general public and starting off in that way is extremely back handed and down right scummy. To your first point... group coaching sessions help everyone EVEN THE INTROVERTS. You see, people that will ask questions will ask questions, and the people who are more introverted can simply listen as their comments are more than likely the same. I AM AN INTROVERT. I prefer to be alone, and yet... when I am in a group call setting... Yes, I may not ask questions, but it is still extremely valuable information. Not to mention, if someone has a question they'd rather ask in private, I encourage it. Plus, you mentioning they don't want to talk in a friendly manner? What are you talking about? If any guest were to do that, I would not let them step over people and put them in line or kick them out immediately. The tips and tricks I am giving are from the top 1% of esports drivers, IRL drivers, and professionals who work in the automotive space. Yes, you can get tips and tricks from servers and other places, but you and I both know it can get very confusing as it can be contradicting to one another. So I'd rather have information DIRECTLY FROM THE SOURCE.... The courses within the group are on data (How to analyze your driving to improve your driving), social media (how to have the proper mindset, framing, and ideas of social media and start building a following), and how to get sponsors (I literally give away my pitch deck and email processes). All the 1-1 stuff you mentioned, is what's included in the private community... guidance & help. Thank you.

We offer help from a real life champion as a benefit for supporting the team. There is a massive difference there, we don't sell that as a product. You are trying to sell a product subscription that is built around giving setups, cars and basically access to a group voice chat with you guys and guests and do so while sounding like it is a new unifying community for everyone to join while it is a paid tutoring service. That titleing and description is what causes the issue and not what you guys are trying to sell. Drift community is more unified than ever and any other motorsports community out there which I'm proud of being a part of. Again, nothing against anyone here. I just stated my opinions and concerns about the concept is all.

    A very valuable input, even from a Moza user like myself. I bought Moza R12 + KS when Simagic hasn't come to my country. (thought it does now) I'm a circuit racer and I'm a happy sim racer with my current gear. But, after my own research prior to this video, I myself would recommend Simagic for anyone looking into mid-range DD wheels, and with your input, you're one of the big deciding factor now. :)

    What's worse is that moza repeatedly lies about it's product specs but most won't know or be able to tell because they are targeting relative newcomers to DD and those who haven't experienced better. Encoders are not 18 bit even on latest R16v2. Aviation grade aluminum? It's just all marketing BS. Yes it's cheap and affordable which is why the R5 is a recommended product but don't be fooled to think anything beyond that is better. And only Simagic and Simucube have 360hz FFB for iracing. That tells you how much better the hardware and software actually is...and for not much more in price.

    Thx for the honest review and comparison. One question about the R21 though: Did you activate the “hands off protection” function in Pit House? That should *in theory* prevent the oscillation without needing to dial down the raw output. Simagic is tempting, from the Alpha Mini and up, when comparing it with the R9/12 and up. Below that though, the R5 sits in a perfect space for more casual players, as you said.

Been posting on their forums about it and they mentioned they were going to implement it for 2 years now but nothing but crickets.... At least with AC is not bad because CSP ffb tweaks but other games sucks ass because hitting that lock is so satisfying.

    Sup Brandon, great vid, im sad i have a Moza now lmao. To remove oscillation, in Moza Pit House run the body bumps (10hz) in equalizer to 300%. Run in between 250% to 400% on some cars. When upping the bump it seems like it gives you "correct" data from the game in stead of "guessing" where the front wheels are when driving straight. It removes the oscillation on transition and entry when drifting aswell. It becomes a little more stiff and ffb becomes a little more sharp. I had the same journey that you had, i was sooo mad i bought a dd that did this. Moza software is still a little wonky so i aint praising Moza right now. But i hope this info can help some frustrated moza users out there. :) Cheers
