Best Wind sim available? (DIY or to buy)

[scottinwales]

Not a lot of people know this but Symprojects also sell a fan controller, it's a fun little easy project. This is mine that I built, I used high powered fans that are used for bit coin mining and built with bits and pieces I found on amazon.

Hey @crooksy - thanks for that great headsup - I've bought one now but am struggling to work out how I should be setting up simhub. Would you mind sharing your fan settings with me so I can see where I'm going wrong?

(obviously I've enabled shakeit wind and then symproject fan control, I'm just a bit lost after that)

Any help would be appreciated!

It uses its own software, not SimHub.

Yeh that's completely false.
It works straight from simhub once you suss out what you're doing.
But

1) It's single channel only (so no left and right)
2) Even with top of the range Noctua fans it's pretty weak imo.

Gonna go down the bilge blower route I think.

No tube. But I think when I bought it over a year ago, that was not an option. Forgive the mess as I am mid rebuild.View attachment 602193

Yes. I wouldn’t race without. I also have the srs system, but there is no comparison, and that one sits unused.
