Chicki Posted September 16, 2017 Posted September 16, 2017 Yes, he's trying to work with me but I don't think he has too much experience at this. Love to know if anyone else would have the same trouble.
Mr_sukebe Posted September 16, 2017 Posted September 16, 2017 Quick question on this. I see that the Jetseat has both USB and jackplug inputs. Would I be correct in assuming that the software will allow the seat to work with DCS with just the USB connection, but that for non-directly supported games (e.g. Elite) that it will need the jackplug connection? 7800x3d, 5080, 64GB, PCIE5 SSD - Oculus Pro - Moza (AB9), Virpil (Alpha, CM3, CM1 and CM2), WW (TOP and CP), TM (MFDs, Pendular Rudder), Tek Creations (F18 panel), Total Controls (Apache MFD), Jetseat

Pirimeister Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 (edited) Guys, Just a quick post to thank Andre for his work and to highlight how great his customer service is. I had the pleasure of doing business with him on two ocasions and he always delivered above and beyhond what he had to. That moto he has under his sig is not advertising. It's a statement of fact. I've just received my Gametrix JetSeat SE, built from what was previously a regular Gametrix JetSeat KW-908 AM. Andre offered to make the upgrade for the price diference and had everything ready on the date he said he would. Not only that, he checked with me about the (slight) delay with my package, after looking up the track number and seeing that it wasn't yet delivered. Cant's ask for more than that, as a customer. Given that the customs' fees involved in getting something from Russia are steep, Andre's atention to his customers goes a long way to reduce that inconvenience (I'm trying hard not to make a butt-pain reference here, but THAT would be a closer description to customs fees in this situation). Of course, good customer care only goes a certain way if you don't have a great product and I got to say, the Gametrix JetSeat SE really is top of the line. Less cumbersome than the regular JetSeat Version, more easily attached to the chair, a great fabric cover and - the reason I had it upgraded - the hole in the middle for the Warthog center mount (in a Viplil desk mount which is also a great product from a company with a great customer support team, if I may add). Great stuff, really. For those of you who might be thinking about it, you should really go for it, if you have the money. Can't recomend it enough! Cheers!

=Andre= Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 Pirimeister, thank you for the feedback and the complimentary remarks :) Just to be exact, I would say that the price for the upgrade has eventually come higher than just the the difference between the models, since that takes a lot of work and some time, but I'm trying to keep it reasonable. I'm not able to track every single item I ship, but I'm trying to do my best for my customers in case of a delay as well. That's right. Happy flying!

Mr_sukebe Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 Andres> Quick update. Seat has successfully arrived and has now been integrated into my rig. Haven't had long as yet, but most certainly made me smile whilst I was out in my Huey. As others have said, definitely adds to the immersion. 7800x3d, 5080, 64GB, PCIE5 SSD - Oculus Pro - Moza (AB9), Virpil (Alpha, CM3, CM1 and CM2), WW (TOP and CP), TM (MFDs, Pendular Rudder), Tek Creations (F18 panel), Total Controls (Apache MFD), Jetseat

streakeagle Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 I just got my Gametrix JetSeat SE (flight Sim Edition mod - Color : Dark Olive) today and had no problems getting it working with DCS World. I ordered the seat on September 18th, the seat was shipped on October 4th, and my mail man handed it over to me today, October 26th. Electrically and mechanically, it is very similar to the consumer Homedic massage cushions you can find in Walmart and Walgreens for very similar pricing. My only complaint is that it is not cushioned well enough. I know all too well that I am sitting on four motors. I had bought the AC plug adapter from Amazon in advance per a support email provided by Andre prior to delivery. I had no issues downloading and installing the necessary software. The seat motors all seemed to work correctly using the software to test them and in "massage" mode. I started up DCS World and the seat worked well without me needing to tweak any settings. I cannot comment much about the realism of the vibrations experienced, but it is pretty cool getting physical feedback. My favorite is firing guns. If you can spare 14 820 RUB, about $260, and you already have all of the other vital flight sim gear such as a HOTAS and rudder pedals, this might be good for you. Now I just need to see how well this holds up over time. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
=Andre= Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Thank you for the feedback, streakeagle. I think JetSeat SE design allows to easily add extra foam layer under its cover if it is not soft enough for you.

streakeagle Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 I think it needs somewhat more rigid foam that remains nearly as thick as the motors when compressed by my weight. The underlying seat cushion for my F-4 ejection seat has foam that is old, compressed, and not exactly soft, but still feels good because it was already molded into a comfortable shape by someone else's butt. But I don't want the foam to damp out the vibration effects of the motors, either. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
lefuneste01 Posted October 28, 2017 Posted October 28, 2017 Hello Andre, I am an happy buyer of the Jetseat, but I like too much the new "SE" layout. As I am not gifted in sewing, could it be possible for you to sell a kind of "conversion kit" allowing the conversion of the current jetseat version to the SE, by cutting the old one and putting all motors and wire into the SE layout ?

=Andre= Posted October 28, 2017 Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) Hi Pierre, do you mean I should provide you with the SE cover and directions what to cut and where to place the motors?

Buckeye Posted October 28, 2017 Posted October 28, 2017 Andre - Any plans to offer the SE in other colors (such as Black)? Also, any plans to offer it without the cutout for the stick? It seems a lot of guys are using normal computer chairs (without a cutout) so the cutout, although very cool, doesn't serve a purpose and will look a little odd. I've looked everywhere for a place to find a chair with a cutoff to go along with the current version to no avail. Let me know, not sure if your product line is constantly evolving or not?

drack Posted October 30, 2017 Posted October 30, 2017 Hi Folks, I was very excited today to get my JetSeat. It is all working but I'm getting confused about the sofware. Am I right that you MUST have the 'JetSeat control panel' installed? Then for DCS you need to have 'Sim shaker for aviators' installed? Is this all I need for DCS? I also use X plane 10, ROF and BOS, are these supported? I tried X plane 10 but the seat did nothing. Do I need to install 'Sim shaker wings'? I there a deeper explanation of what the sliders do anywhere? Thanks for any help. Graham.
=Andre= Posted October 30, 2017 Posted October 30, 2017 Hi Graham, wow! that was pretty fast for regular mail! Am I right that you MUST have the 'JetSeat control panel' installed?Yes Then for DCS you need to have 'Sim shaker for aviators' installed?Yes Is this all I need for DCS?Yes I also use X plane 10, ROF and BOS, are these supported? I tried X plane 10 but the seat did nothing.Xplane 11 is supported in SimShaker for Aviators, not 10. ROF and BOS are not supported. But I use JetSeat with ROF in its sound intercept mode, that's not half bad. About JetSeat mods: https://dreamsimteam.blogspot.ru/p/jetseat-ug.html Do I need to install 'Sim shaker wings'?It depends on the games you fly. SimShaker - Wings is currently for BMS and War Thunder aviation. I there a deeper explanation of what the sliders do anywhere?
