Where can I buy a simulator seat?
- Specialist simracing equipment retailers: These stores offer a wide range of seats designed specifically for simracing, providing comfort and support for long gaming sessions.
- Car accessory stores: Some car seats can be adapted for use in a simulator. These stores can offer bucket seats or performance seats that can be mounted on simulation brackets.
- Online sales sites: Platforms such as Amazon and eBay, or specialized gaming and simracing sites such as GT Omega and Sparco, offer a wide choice of seats to suit all budgets.
- Office furniture stores: On a tighter budget, ergonomic office chairs can also be a viable option, especially if they offer good adjustability and adequate back support. However, you’ll need to remove the wheeled base and adapt the seat to the simulator.
- Used parts suppliers: For those looking for a more economical option, used car seats can be an excellent solution. They can often be found in car wrecks or via online ads. It’s also our favorite solution, because it’s the most environmentally friendly.
Is it possible to purchase simulator plans only?
We offer digital plans in PDF format for sale, along with an optional CNC extension for the simulator from the DIY kit.
How is the simulator produced?
All our simulators are made in France, in the workshops of an ESAT (Établissement et Service d’Aide par le Travail) located in the north of the country. This partnership with a local organization not only guarantees quality craftsmanship, but also supports the professional integration of disabled people. We attach great importance to the responsible and ethical manufacture of every component of our simulator, in order to offer you a durable, quality product, while contributing to the local economy.
Is a wooden simulator likely to make noise or crack over time? How does it age?
We use plywood, a material renowned for its strength and durability over time, thanks to its specific design. It won’t warp under the effect of humidity or heat, guaranteeing optimum longevity for your simulator. This phenomenon is also minimized by the use of glue rather than wood screws to assemble the boards, creating a solid bond over a large surface area. The addition of reinforcements at strategic points makes the framework particularly robust. These methods reinforce the structure as a whole, ensuring exceptional stability.
Can I customize the simulator?
Yes, you can customize your simulator to suit your needs! New designs and customization options will be regularly created and offered for sale, enabling you to make your simulator even more unique.
Is it possible to place an order from countries outside of France or Europe?
Yes, but only for our digital products.
PDF Plans (International): Our PDF assembly plans are available worldwide. They are available for immediate download after purchase and are offered in three languages: French, English, and German.
Physical Products (Europe only): Currently, the delivery of our physical products is exclusively reserved for countries located in Europe. We do not ship physical hardware outside of this zone due to logistics and shipping costs.
Will the options unlocked during the pre-order stages be available after this period?
