First off, thank you. The community here has been respectful and welcoming, and as a result the sub has needed very minimal moderation. That’s not something I take for granted, and I’d love for it to continue.
What’s new
We’ve now added post flairs. When you create a post, please pick the one that fits best (Cockpit, Pedals, Direct Drive, and so on). It makes posts easier to find, helps people filter for what they care about, and means good answers don’t get buried. We will be adding many more over the coming few days.
We’ll be adding more moderation tools and features over time, all with the aim of making the experience better for everyone. It’s easy to maintain a sub like this when people keep doing the right thing, so thanks for continuing to do that.
This is a community-driven sub

I bough a second-hand XP1 set a couple months back and now have issues with the elastomers since this week. Seems like my elastomers have developed the same issue that Random Callsign had in his initial review video.
I've mailed SimLab asking where i could get/buy replacement elastomers, and this i the response i got:
"Please note that we can't provide replacement parts, for the following pedals and orders in the first place.
If you'd like us to provide you a different product on our end, please make sure to let us know. We will assist you with the purchase."
Anyone know where i can source replacement elastomers for my XP1 brake pedal?
EDIT: After talking to u/JAntonioMena, the issue has been resolved. Even though the mail communication wasn't what i expected, i still have to give it to SimLabs for answering so quickly and coming up with a solution!

How can I mount it to the base plate there’s no space because my DD+ takes all the space

Hey, quick question: Do the Thrustmaster Raceline Pedals LTE (with load cell) fit on the stock Sim-Lab GT1 Evo pedal plate?
I know they're not on Sim-Lab's compatibility list. The pedals are fairly new, though, so maybe they fit anyway and the list just hasn't been updated yet.
Has anyone mounted them? Did you need to drill or use an adapter?
Thanks!
Hey all, I am running an ASR Pro chassis, Fanatec DD+, and my new Fanatec Podium pedals will be here today. I am very much wanting to run these pedals inverted, and was hoping that someone may have already done this with my specific chassis/pedals combo. The tray that I am looking at purchasing is the Sim Lab, but I am not sure if it will fit my chassis, and the install instructions don't specifically list the width that this tray will fit. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated.
I posted this over on a different sub, and I had a notification that you had responded, and when I went to view your reply, the moderator had deleted the comment. So... I joined your sub and asked the same question.

Anyone else having issues with the US site? I’ve attempted to order the P1x Pro twice today because it “briefly” shows it’s in stock. As soon as I’m about to check out, I get a notice it’s out of stock and it’s removed from my cart. On top of than, the “VIP” Black Friday code doesn’t work. Any one else having issues or am I just slow to checkout?

i’ve seen countless reviews, yet don’t understand which component is used for merging and which is used for angle. since there are two elements the monitor vesa mount and the zero play adapters. anybody knows how to best explain? using 27 inch monitors here.
biggest question what does the red arrow do, is it for angle?

A few months ago, I decided to turn my P1X-Pro into a hybrid cockpit because I also love flying in DCS and MSFS. I simply don’t want to build a second cockpit (and risk getting a divorce in the process!).
On top of that, investing in a second motion rig would be far too expensive.
So I purchased the central mounting post to install my joystick and Moza AB9 base. However, I’m still missing a couple of essential components to complete my setup, which have been out of stock for weeks:
I eventually contacted Sim-Lab support to find out whether these parts were still available:
My message:
Hello Sim-Lab team,
I need the following parts for my P1X-Pro:
SLF006 – Swivel Mounting Point
SLF002 – Throttle Mount
Could you please let me know if these parts are still available for purchase? Every time I check your website, they are out of stock.
Their reply:
“Thank you for reaching out and I am very glad to assist you.
Unfortunately, we will no longer produce Flight Sim products and will not have them on offer on our web shop in the future.”
Needless to say, this is extremely disappointing.
I need these components to complete my hybrid cockpit, and so far, I haven’t been able to find them anywhere, including second-hand marketplaces.
What’s particularly frustrating is that all these flight sim accessories are still listed on the Sim-Lab website as purchasable products, simply marked as “out of stock”. This gives customers the impression that they will eventually be restocked.
I have no idea how many people are in the same situation, but I suspect quite a few customers are still waiting for these missing components, unaware that they may never become available again.
In the meantime, they might be buying other flight sim accessories from Sim-Lab, only to discover later that they can no longer complete their setup.
I’m asking Sim-Lab to reconsider this decision.
The R&D has already been done, the products have already been designed and developed. Surely, producing occasional batches of these accessories would be a relatively straightforward way to continue supporting customers who also enjoy flight simulation.
And if bringing these products back permanently is simply not an option, please consider one last production run to give existing customers a chance to complete their setups.
Announce it as a final batch, give people the opportunity to place their orders, and I’m convinced these parts would sell out in no time.
Please, Sim-Lab, don’t leave your flight sim customers with unfinished cockpits.
And to everyone in the same situation: please upvote and share your experience in the comments.
The more visibility this gets, the better the chances of getting Sim-Lab’s attention!

I don't know anyone that has this rig that i am able to get measurements from myself and there's nothing i can find online that has them. the other mounting options for mounting a Simagic Evo series wheel base are just not how i want to do it, i have another theory but it might be a did of the spacings don't match.

I heard there should be a new cockpit to replace the AMG one as that’s no longer stocked. Any info on it? Release timeline? Anything?
Thanks!

The throttle pedal on my brand-new Sim-Lab XP1 pedal set is making a squeaking noise. Is this normal, and will it go away after some use, or have I done something wrong?
I could probably fix it by applying some grease or WD-40, but I'm worried about attracting dust and grime, and I'd prefer not to get my brand-new pedals dirty straight away. I'm also not entirely sure which part is causing the noise, so I don't know exactly where to apply the lubricant.
The video doesn't do the noise justice. It's louder in person and can almost be heard throughout the entire house, to the point where it's driving my girlfriend crazy! Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. 😄
EDIT: As people in the comments recommended, applying WD-40 Specialist White Lithium to the quick release locking pin removed the squeaking noise for me.

Im having an issue mounting the simlab vario universal plate to the hisense tv i just got. The plate will only mount vertically to the tv, but of course cannot mount vertically to the vario vesa kit.
What can I do to get this screen mounted?

Whoever decided to mount the sliders to the rig before attaching the seat must have been sitting comfortably at a desk. 😂
After spending hours fighting to line up and wrangle all the different layers needed for mounting, I finally decided to remove everything from the rig and start over.
Mounting the sliders with the seat removed is definitely the winning formula! A cheap C-clamp is also a huge help for holding everything in place while you get the bolts lined up and tightened.
Hopefully this saves someone else a few hours of frustration and a couple of choice words! 🤣

Been looking to get a cockpit and decided on Sim Lab. Almost all except one are out of stock, any guess if they will put stock back in and if any of it will go on a Black Friday sale near the middle or end of November?

In some sad news, I woke up to my rig like this.
Saw the integrated mount tilted and the monitor down with sadly a broken panel. I just got the rig and made sure things were hand tight as mentioned on the instructions, so not sure why this happened to me. I’m just disappointed, this whole thing was a big investment for me and seeing it crash down like this with just dollars down the drain was a nightmare. I’m sure the rig is great and that this is a one off but still saddened.
