Think the three bars and the floating (not welded) looks bloody nice actually, assuming it is strong.

Good to hear the thrustmaster will fit, have you been in contact with Thrustmaster? Will you guarentee that it will fit? ;) Also will you definitely set up a safer payment system than Western Union/ Bank Transfer? I will buy one of these beauts the moment I can pay in a way that I feel comfortable with (Credit Card or at very least Pay Pal)
 
both solutions are stable, but the final solution is better (no welding...
for you (for the production cost)

..., no scratches,...
¿...?

... better feeling when you sit,...
why?.

... customer can paint the steel rods ...)
¬_¬

rinoseat will be able to perfectly handle the new Thrustmaster T500RS wheel and pedals

Sure?. The T500 RS pedals seems too wide to fit between the Rinoseat GTR bars used for the wheel/pedals support.

The bars for pedals can slide wider or closer I think. Because Clubsports are harder to get on than G25 pedals as they are wider.
 
...3 bar unit...

the aluminium tube is thin and can be tiny deformed by welding
by removing the tube in the tube it gets stuck and scratches
like i said, the 3 bar unit is expensive than welding (more machining)
better filling when you seat ... you see through + latter we will offer the neon light in the tube + option for the wires in the tube
better adjustments

Yes, the bars for pedals can slide wider or closer, like UK-Gamer said ... Thanks
We have option for the inverted pedals for the G25/G27 and the Fanatec CSP

Yes, you can buy a color spray and paint the steel rods in colors of your flag, or your team or anything else ... it can be very nice detail

Could you tell/show us more about inverted pedals? Espacially for CSP (the one I will have). Pretty curious how it works, and very interested.
 
Will you oneday offer a cheaper model, and sell in the USA?

I am sorry my American cousin - but I must say how typical. Look around, the thing is as bloody cheap as he can make it and still eat. If you want the best caviar in limited supply you must pay for it, otherwise go and buy some badly designed (or copied) crap metal made in China and live with it.

Best bet is to save your pennies - by the way it is sold in USA, pay and it is mailed to you.

Cheers

I love it. If i had the $$$ i'd buy it. But, Renato, Will you oneday offer a cheaper model, and sell in the USA?

I have to concur with CPA, it's actually one of the cheapest cockpits I've seen. Price isn't really the issue so much as actually getting them out to customers and getting more secure payment methods for those of us wanting one but observing what happens to those that have already paid up.

I talk about the total width of the arch:

In the video, the T500 RS pedals seems very wide, and this part on the Rino GTR looks a little close:

But it sure is an appreciation, and when you know the size of the pedals base there is no problem.


Lucky with sales, Renato, and congratulations to all buyers: it looks a great product.

I will consider to buy one after the T500 RS shifter´s release.

Happy new year for everybody.

It could be a problem but not for us. ;)

Happy New Year 2011.
 
Hi everybody on GTplanet!
Here are few pictures of my GTR seat.
First impressions are that it is solid, firm and compact.
Happy New Year!











 
👍 very nice rig Renato

hopefully insidesimracing guys will get to test it out. sure it will get a thumbs up and sales will take off, people have complained about the wait, but I foresee a longer delays due to increase in orders :banghead:

Okay. Ill look into it. Im 16 and dont have a job. AND i just bought a fanatec. I think by the time i do have enough money, Rhinoseat will be better in every way possible (not that they're not now).
 
still 300e = about 401$. which is alot of money. I'd love to own one but, i think PVC and scrapyard seat is cheaper by alot.
 
CPA
just to be clear I was being sarcastic. The Fanatec would be moving everywhere in a homebuilt PVC cockpit and be a waste of $. Suggust you mug 50 other teens for their Nike's, sell them on ebay and buy a Rinoseat GTR.
that's a top gear top tip right there 👍
 
Umm..... If you weight it down like Eddy's PVC then it is a great seat... Mug 50 other teens WTF, do you think that he's a criminal because he is 16 :rolleyes:
 
just an update:

Renato sent me a new tracking number but it is still not activated. He says this is because a transport company was used to send it to the central post office. He says it will be activated soon.

I will advise if tracking number not activated by 3 January..........

if you need help, please feel free to ask me (about seating position, cockpit dimensions or anything else). 👍


p.s. i think that we will later offer the cockpit without a seat (rinoseat gtr is compatible with standard seat slider) ... transport cost will be low (5kg) ... maybe it would be good for DIY

When I was looking for a cockpit and DIY options I found decent seats were quite expensive, even "scrap", and the seat on the rinoseat was the best option. (Especially if you double up like xjure and use it as a comfortable bed!)

do you think that he's a criminal because he is 16 :rolleyes:

no, I meant that for the best kit you would beg, borrow .......... Obviously the first options had not worked and yes it was a Top Gear comment. No offence was intended (pun intended).
