ISR – Pagnian Next Level Motion Platform Review
Inside Sim Racing’s Darin Gangi present their review of the Next Level Racing motion platform distributed by Pagnian Imports.
Darin and John tested the motion platform with a variety of sim racing titles. (Assetto Corsa, Dirt Rally, F1 2014 and 15, GP Bikes, iRacing, Live For Speed and Project Cars.) Back in June Darin Gangi took a first look at the Pagnian Next Level motion platform, and now recorded their final review of the product.
With their excellent Next Level Racing motion platform, Pagnian Imports tries to fill the gap between the most expensive and budget motion simulators. Besides the attractive price, the product is compact, yet incredibly powerful and easy to assemble.
One of the somewhat negative side effects of a full-blown motion simulator can be the noise that the actuators tend to make. To give us an overall idea of the sound that the Pagnian Next Level Motion Platform produces, Darin and John dial out all the other room sounds and let us hear the sound while the platform is in action. In comparison to a selection of comparable products, the noise the Pagnian platform makes proved to be very acceptable.
Furthermore, the ISR team rates the overall performance of the platform and have a look at the included software interface that controls the unit. As usual they and the show with some Pros and Cons before sharing their Final thoughts.
The Next Level Racing motion platform is available for approximately £1,695.00 / €2342 / US$ 2,799 ( Check the official web page for the most updated and accurate price.) The product comes with a 2-year warranty. For more info, make sure to check out www.pagnian.com.
