Hiya guys, there seems to be quite a few apps out there to help with setups and in race telemetry ect
What Apps are you guys using if any and what would you recommend?
I want a little more info to help with my setups but I don’t want a massive overload of info that will just confuse me, I can’t figure out what app would be best

I want a little more info to help with my setups but I don’t want a massive overload of info that will just confuse me, I can’t figure out what app would be best IMO you'll be better off searching for setups and then looking at what in particular you like and dislike about them. Once you have a couple of decent setups, it is easy to tweak the car for any other track. Start with downforce and then look at Toe, roll bars and springs. Avoid dampers unless you absolutely have to. The in game engineer is a useful tool to help make sense of most of it. There is a free suspension calculator spreadsheet if you Google it, also. A few around here use various apps for tuning though, I just don't remember which apps.

RS Dash is what many of us use. Live telemetry and a website you can log into to see more detail after your session. It works with PCars 1 & 2. All the recent F1 games, Forza 7 and most PC sims.

Yes rsDash and it's coming with a great telemetry analysis module soon. I'm helping with testing as we speak and hopefully it will be released in the not too distant future but even without that module its still a fantastic app.

I use Sim Dashboard but I don't really look at data or tune too much.
What really helps me is loading the SMS loose setup for each tune and making small adjustments here and there. I read the in-game text to see what everything does and go from there. Most of all of my setups are the default loose setup with small adjustments made for each track.
The main things to worry about in the setup is tyres, tyre pressure, and the engine page. I wouldn't worry about the suspension,damper, and differential pages until you fully understand the tyre and engine pages or if someone says that a specific adjustment really helps with a particular car/track.

Seems like most like Stable. You're the only other one I know that likes it Loose! (That's Not what he said) Agree on how to tweak setups. PCars 2 does the best job around for explaining everything. Here and there something seems backwards, like TCS.ha
