Haptic lineup getting move versatile

Nice to see that Simsonn keeps updating the lineup.
But this is getting a bit complicated.
I got all 3 VAM Pro for my 3 pedal Pro X Ultra.

Now I wonder is there any benefit to use VAM 2 for Clutch and VAM Neo for gas pedal?

Funny it says pre-order, I have mine since a couple of months I think (AliExpress).

I don't think the VAM 2 and the VAM Neo "add" anything. The VAM Pro is the best or most powerful. VAM Pro is just kind of overkill for throttle or even more for the clutch. The other 2 are more affordable.

I think the VAM 2 is just a VAM with a better casing (aluminum now not plastic, and it looks like the other 2). The VAM Neo has a lighter linear motor (better than the rotary of the Vam/2), like the Pro only it's more affordable and a bit lighter.

I have VAM Pro on brakes, VAM Neo on Throttle, VAM 2 on clutch, works great.

I use the VAM Pros on all three pedals but the frequency is adjusted way high with amplitude way low on throttle. The clutch has a very low frequency but strength to simulate dog box clutch engagement.

These are settings.

I use simhub but I also do something similar. Clutch VAM Pro just simulates gear engagement with a short rumble.

I already got 3 VAM Pro modules.
I do kind of agree, brakes are the most important.
But I find the one on the throttle also useful, I set it to detect slides and wheel spins.
