IASystems have developed the Worlds First Fully Functioning Motorbike Controller for PC and it is EPIC!
I have been given access to the HS2, the development model that precedes the HS2 Pro; the first official production model exclusively available from IASystems.
You won't be able to buy the model that I am reviewing here today but the HS2 Pro is basically the same device but more advanced and with twice as many button controls and it looks much, much nicer!
This controller takes motorbike Simulation to the next level and feels extremely authentic.
In this video review I asked my brother to come in and test out the HS2. He is a day-to-day biker but is not into Simulation. I wanted to see how a real biker feels about this device and see if he agreed with me that it delivers an extremely realistic and authentic biking experience.
For testing we used GPBikes and the HS2 together to ensure Ultimate Realism. We tested an recorded for an entire day and this is the results of that test...enjoy.
Review goes live at 5pm GMT on the 13th Feb 2017: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_Vh_vsRYWs

Thanks Hawk.
But I have a quick question,
DD, are you planing on doing a full bike simulator? Where you got a whole bike chassis and not only a steering bar and the foot paddles? Also an idea would be, that you do not only steer with the steering bar, but also with the whole chassis, to give the best experience? Of course I do not have any idea how this works, youst some ideas :D.

That is an interesting question that bring me to another... How do you manage manual lean with the hs2 ???

This is not possible, I think, you can see in the video, that auto lean is on.
1. Rider lean can be done with buttons for now but I used to have mini joystics instead of buttons but it is too much when needing the hands for levers and gas and buttons. I am working on using gyros and other methods at mo
MCF I do a full siton system but I need to keep costs down. As soon as you add any motion to a sit on system just add a $1000 to cost to make it safe!!!
I am building for most people not just rich people guys. I dont have any money and make little if any real profit as most goes into development and tooling.

Sure, just a little question from me :). I had no idea those things are so expensive ::). Maybe one day you will get an offer to do something like this... If so, please do a video about it :D

You are so right in this vision of things ;) ! But, I am pretty sure, no, I'm completly sure that a head tracker could be use to detect lean.
Thats right tchemi but I want to use ONLY my product if I can. I will test it with EdTracker and may ship it with my systems as an option for tider viewing but want to make my own rider movement controls

Allan you will be glad to know then that EDTRACKER have a free guide showing you how to build your own for less than £10.
Roll on 8DOF!!
Yes Mike but that is still THEIR product. I want to make body movement my own
I am a stubborn C lol
