   UPDATE: I added this to a list awhile ago and kept watching build videos and after flipping a coin, about a dozen times, I decided to give this cockpit a try! It went together really easy, no issues on any of the bolt hole lining up. The instructions were clear, but some of the pictures were a lil small but that’s my old eyes starting to fail!😂🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️ The seat is actually not that bad! I’m only 5’8”(68”s) tall and I’m down to a slim 155pounds and I’m swimming in this! Not a bad thing, I was worried it was gonna be tight or not as versatile for larger drivers. I honestly didn’t think I would use either of the pillows but I am, and they are almost perfect! The included shifter stand is solid and I don’t feel like I’m going to have any issues banging virtual gears! I put the included blue tooth receiver on the included type C charger and had zero issues connecting, and the sound is actually good! The adjustability is great! My four year old grandson needed a booster seat so he could see over the wheel but with the seat pushed forward, he could easily reach the pedals!

   The only thing I noticed on the frame that could use a lil attention is the paint. It’s pretty thin in a couple spot but none of them are visible once built! It took me approximately 1 and a half hours to completely build! The seat slider was pre installed, huge relief for that even though the build videos showed everyone struggling! Would I buy this again, absolutely! As far as the flex, I haven’t noticed anything but I only have a Logitech G29 and stick wheel and pedals. The material seems strong and the foot mount has multiple positions and this as well seems very durable!

   I wouldn’t be scared to purchase a strong DD wheel base but that isn’t in the budget at the moment!

   I am going to replace the leveling feet with caster wheels so it makes it easier to move!

   Update: I added 6 caster wheels I found on hedfpk.com with the 8m x 1.25 thread and it is amazing how easy it is to move around on my hardwood floors and even though my floors are terribly worn and need refinished, I have not made any new scuffs! Woo hoo!! I also replaced the Velcro straps with Yellow ones I found on hedfpk.com along with wire loom(1/2”) so I don’t worry about rolling over my cables!
   I did have to shave off some of the shifter mount so my middle caster could spin and roll freely but that might not be needed depending on where yours is located! I spent approximately 5 straight hours ripping, with an occasional restroom break, and the seat was never an issue.

   I would love to see GTPlayer offer a single monitor stand and maybe a butt kicker mount!

   After a couple months, I’ve had to use a seat cushion as after driving for a couple hours it does start to hurt my butt! Nothing to terrible and it’s not anything that would cause me to not purchase this or recommend this rig. I also noticed that after adding the caster wheels, a couple of them needed to be straighten as it seems the thin metal was weak. It might have been self inflicted as I had to retighten the caster wheels. The rig is still sturdy and I still don’t get any flex with the Logitech g923.
   Again, when they offer the $50 coupon, this is still worth $300!
   I’ll post an update after I log some more time in this!

   This is one of the better racing chairs you can get for the money. While installation isn’t 1 to 1 on this, it will go together. You will have to pull and move things a bit to get everything to bolt and line up properly. Do not use a rubber mallet. While the metals look strong, one tap from the lightest of mallets will dent it.

   I chose not to use the wheels. But it does have them and they are pretty nice. The seat is pretty comfortable and has a real car feel to it. Shifter access is full adjustable. You can flip it, reverse it, find what works for you.

   Overall, very satisfied.
