The one on the right is very clearly running at a higher fps. Pretty easy to test just run this video at 0.25 speed. The stutter is likely caused by the driver itself, or simhub not correctly able to render it. For 15 pounds that thing is really impressive

Just wanted to say huge thanks for your efforts and sharing.
Just set one of these up and it's fantastic.
No more drop outs from phone.
Thanks again👍

Cheers for the info, got a new wheel recently and i am now looking for this. Gonna order 1.
You gained a sub.

Ali also has a $22 7" IPS HDMI screen sans a case (takes a port on your video card). Not sure if that would be worth reviewing on the channel. If doesn't have free shipping but that is $11 USD to USA, so total is $33 USD after the normal new user coupon. You'd need to figure out a way to 3D print the case that fits it.

Thanks you a lot, I've been searching for a decently good cheap dash display for a custom steering wheel I'm planning to make and this is just perfect!

[jonferraez]

VoCore has a new 6.8" USB screen for pre-order. The new screen does not have the extra border on the one side of the screen like both the 5" and 4.3" models have, versus their original 4" that didn't have it. Worth noting, but this AX206 works great but it could have a better better color and refresh rate and mainly I would like a bit larger size. Wish they made a 5", 6" or 6.8" model! It would be sweet if you could get a review of the VoCore 6.8" no doubt. Hint, hint.

[SackyX]

Thanks for sharing, just bought one, though I use a tablet to do the same thing I'd rather have something a bit smaller.

[MrTimcakes]

It seems to me that the framerate is dependent on the amount of pixels changed from last frame.

[dronetics]

5" has not worked for me any help and also i don't know if there is anything else i have to do to once I ran the install wizard for the ax206 screen.

[Maskerano-zyru]

I bought this display through your recommendation and it doesn't work. I recorded soft simhub sees it but the screen has an uneven pixel image. I suspect a software problem. It is currently useless

[wayland]

Is this screen displaying video or is it rendering text sent to it?

[jonferraez]

Great review, snagged one as soon as I saw the price, as this is half the VoCore for the similar size plus comes in a case already. Total was $17 USD shipped after $2.50 new user coupon. Can you supply your custom SimHub dashboard, the original seen early in the video showing the lap timer, lap times and temps, and the other dashboard that shows the radar? Or at least point to the location to download those two. Licensed SimHub supports up to 60fps, unlicensed is limited to 30fps, but neither of these hardware wise can do more that 25fps. Maybe the differences in some dashboards speed is due the GPU or memory on the AX206 versus the VoCore for the frame rate differences? It could be their current driver. Thanks!

How do you find visual acuity on the smaller screen when racing? Glancing down for a quick look could require a longer glance?, or is this not an issue? Thank you for posting. Also, were those really your hands, or do you have a stunt double? I have heard a conspiracy theory about your existence….

[RudebwoyRacing]

Have you tried making one with a 10.3 lcd would be a much better budget option vs the grid gt3 DDU10

[Jnibbs]

My mph on screen is about 15mph off from in game. How do I fix this?

[massimocongedo]

Hy...Is possibil use the 5 inch monitor?i see with 3.5 use ax206 software.any solution for the 5inch?

[belgiumsimraceramateur]

First off, another great video. I also want to try to make a screen like this myself. But if you open the link from aliexpress there now is also a 5 inch screen. Do you think this method also applies to this large screen. Thank you very much

[jonferraez]

Can the orientation of the AX206 screen be flipped 180 degrees in SimHub? Since the power cable plugs in to the left side of the case I did not have enough clearance to side mount it, so I had to flip it around which displays the startup screen upside down. Does SH have a way to set the screen orientation for USB screens like the AX206, or if not can I edit a dashboard and flip it 180 degrees?

Now it'd be perfect if someone can design a simple 3D print support/case for it for Fanatec CSL DD wheelbase. ;-)

[santos-diegobispo]

Hi! can i use this screen (AX206) and rev light (ATmega328P) at same time with simhub?
