Any plans to stock Obutto or similar?

[Mr_Sukebe]

Just a question really. Has anyone at OCUK looked at Obutto or similar solutions, and if so, any plans to stock?

 

[Mr_Sukebe]

Thanks for confirming. Does't need to necessarily be that manufacturer, but just that type of setup.

 

[Mr_Sukebe]

Very interesting, any other makers of this kind of thing? For me it would be more for work rather than flight or racing sims. Just can't seem to find a good desk and chair combo that's comfortable to me. This looks like it would be ideal as you could configure it exactly the way you want.

There's several around, and I'm guessing they'll become more common. I'm thinking of giving my son my existing Ikea office chair (with gaming arms added) and JL table, and replacing them with an Obutto.
With the contacts that OCUK have, I'm wondering if they'll identify an even better manufacturer.

I was impressed with the price, I thought they were going to be much more expensive.

Was looking at my current setup this morning and I am not sure I could make the Obutto work for me as I need to be able to swivel around to reach stuff behind me. But I am sure a manufacturer would come up with a version that can move. Or easier to get in and out of.

Quite.
Personally, I'll be running whatever with a single monitor and a VR headset.
My wishes are for a good quality frame, capable of mounting:
- A single monitor
- Runners, that allow the use of aftermarket car seat, e.g. Cobra, Recaro or even a real car seat (I rather fancy using a BMW sports seat). This needs to be adjustable, such that my son could use it
- A built in foot rest for pedals
- Side support "arms" to mount joystick/throttle/gearbox
- Front mount for a keyboard

The Obutto seems to do "most" of that.

One idea that did spring to mind was whether OCUK could team up with a small group to produce not only the above, but say the Slav pedal unit, thus giving Slav a UK outlet and better production facilities.
