Direct Drive Life – Episode 3 – Ricmotech RealGear H20+H22

James High presents the third episode of his Sim Racing video series called Direct Drive Life.

In this episode of DDL, James reviews the new Real Gear H20+H22 Panel-Style Programmable button boxes by Ricmotech and ends the show with a compilation of the Rig of the Month entries.

Sadly enough, this will be the final episode of Direct Drive Life. James has sold most of his hardware but states he will return… one day.

The Ricmotech Realgear RacePro H20 and H22 products are inspired by the dashboards of real race cars, this horizontal button box will add authenticity to your sim racing rig. Everything starts with all-metal construction and race-car-correct buttons and toggle switches, the goal was to build a button box for your simulator that would be true to form to what you could cut out of an actual race car.

This switch panel offers up to 36 functions including the brake bias valve knob which incorporates a proprietary friction clutch to simulate the drag of a real bias valve. The Ricmotech button boxes allow you to map various functions in the game to any button, switch or knob on the panel.
