Well, they're really bad at communications, but still it is a kickstarter product, obviously they had to get most r&d and production in place AFTER reciving the money, that's why you get a discount, otherwise you wait to see how it goes and get it it f price after kickstarter campaign.Long story short:
People was lied that DD wheel called Feel VR is made and need money to start production! Never mentioned that they need money and time to start development!!!
What was good price in 2017/2018 - will be dated product on not good price in 2020 if the wheel happens ofcourse!
Also postponing the release with 2 years they literaly eat the collected money, so I cant accept that people will receive better from promised wheel, ofcourse if they receive wheel at all!
Even at this point this is pure LIE! Dont like the word SCAM...
Do you see that we are year asfter promised delivery for the wheel and pedals? So, now they show pics with carton box with some parts in them !?!?! The progres they show is slower even for the people without kickstarter campaign...and its not only the taken money....that huge delay will lead even the miracle happens people to receive the wheel - that wheel will be obsolete unit for simracing museum! Well, that m ake sense for the backer - their money are invested in museum exhibit!Well, they're really bad at communications, but still it is a kickstarter product, obviously they had to get most r&d and production in place AFTER reciving the money, that's why you get a discount, otherwise you wait to see how it goes and get it it f price after kickstarter campaign.
That said hope the pedals are as good as they seem and that they manage to get some extra financing for producing all the wheels
I've had the g25 and the t300 both for 5+ years without becoming obsolete, i still don't see any 11nm dd wheeel+pedals at that price tag, so what will exactly get obsolete in only 2 years?Do you see that we are year asfter promised delivery for the wheel and pedals?

The worst thing in that semiscam - still not evolved to real scam - is the fact that nobody will be able to be funded for simracing product again! The trust is lost completely!
WHen you take money from people with specific time frame for product - that is a contract...the story for the students is good that did some mistakes is ok, but what about the money? If you did mistakes and wrong calculations - fair enough just ferund the money to the people....not to spent their hard gained money for a living and after 2 years to say "well maybe we did mistakes...."I've had the g25 and the t300 both for 5+ years without becoming obsolete, i still don't see any 11nm dd wheeel+pedals at that price tag, so what will exactly get obsolete in only 2 years?
And again, we're talking about some engineering students that got a running prototype and now have to certificate and produce 900+ items, they understimated the difficulty to find right contractors to produce the parts and had to move production from china to ukraine, it's not surprising it's takong long considering the really thight budget they have.

It seems like a dead in the water product.
As far as I can understand yes.But is that a new bottom plate that will remove the flex Barry was talking about?
Not sure if I understood it 100% but it seems a lead programmer/designer left the 'company' in January and since then no single response to Laurence's mails. Dead silence.That's a pity. Had good promise. What I was wondering and asked on his Youtube link was if maybe the Covid pandemic which is affecting all things worldwide may be holding them back with production.
