Moza R9 mounting

[Stepy]

Can i mount a Moza R9 to this wheel stand out of the box ? or will I have to buy some sort of adapter / clamp ?

That isn't going to cut it for that base even if it can mount to it. I have a 10nm base and I think 9nm is going to be more than you expect, plus the base is going to wight a decent amount more than a Tm or Logitech making it top heavy with a bunch of force. I just picture the stand turning into a propeller with the wheel staying stationary in your hands lol. I built a rig out of ¾ mdf and 2x4s for like $150 and wrapped it in automotive vinyl I got from Amazon. It's sturdy as heck and looks good the vinyl is easier than you think to apply and has held up great for the last year.

My TGT II base weighs 8.4 kg, the wheel weighs about 1kg .The R9 base weighs 7kg plus 2.5kg for the CS wheel so their about the same weight. I don`t know what its going to be like with a lot of force though.

Go to the above link and download the manual for the wheel base.
Looks like 66x78.7mm 4 bolt bottom mount pattern.
As everyone else has said, that stand is not really stiff enough for a 9nm wheel base, there is going to be a considerable amount of flex with a 9nm wheel.

Your probably right, looks like Iwill have to fork out for a better wheel stand any recommendations ?

I have the 2.0 with a TGT-2 and zero flex at max (6.4nm). Rock solid even with lockable castor wheels attached. If possible tho I would go the extra and get a full rig such as the GT Omega Prime lite (I find it a pain moving the wheelstand and connecting every evening lol so full rig incoming once squared with the boss).

I have just mounted my R9 on a GT Omega Prime Lite and it’s solid as a rock. No need to upgrade anytime soon £350 though so not cheap.
Edit: added picture of it half finished during the build.

So R9 arrived, was able to mount it with the two holes in the front plate. Running 100 FFB in the Moza pit house and the ol wheel stand can handle it no problem solid as a rock

Nice, i'm thinking about doing the same, glad someone tried it and it works as intended. Going to be a problem lifting up the entire rig and carrying it around, i'll just pretend its a gym workout.
