Am really surprised by the quality of the steering wheel and the functions.
Many buttons and switches on the hardware is always an advantage, because there are so many setting options in the games that you would like to operate the steering wheel.
The steering wheel feels good and I think from a quality standpoint, it will stay that way for longer.
With the force feedback you can positively implement a lot of things in the settings in the game in line with my feelings, everything becomes more realistic and the joy of playing all the greater.
Negative I find only the display lighting, which still burns even after shutting down the computer.
I wonder if this is just me, or a general software problem?Pro
- Many buttons and switches to program
- Good quality hardware
- Very precise steering
- Force feedback and settings
Contra
- The display illumination always burns
The current best steering wheel
Bought together with Playseat Evolution Alcantara and TH8A gearshift.
Apart from the plastic on the steering wheel instead of leather and the rather useless display, which always lights up (no off switch on the steering wheel) would be a better and more current game support for PS5 desired or at least a universal controller detection on the console.
The buttons, paddles, force feedback and precision in control is brilliant though and better than the competition for the same price. In conjunction with the Playseat, the USB connection cable to the console is kept relatively short.Pro
- Workmanship
- Good controls
- Well-placed buttons
- many settings
- Brake resistor adjustable (with spring)
- shifting and handbrake can be added
- good shift paddles
Contra
- Mounting of the pedal series on the Playseat difficult
- display is not supported by most games
- no illuminated buttons
- no off-switch (steering wheel is always on)
- short USB cable
- weak PS5 games support
- plastic steering wheel instead of leather
Excellent!
Pro
- Very good return of force
- Lcd
- Finish
- Springs on brake
- Modern design
Contra
- Noisy paddles
- Not many games compatible with the lcd for the moment
Hammer
Absolutely brilliant and only to recommend. Purchase decision much in favor of Thrustmaster T248 and against Logitech G923. Yes the paddle shifters are a little run and less good than those of Logitech, but the adjustable force feedback is the hammer.
Pro
- Gaming fun
- Price
Contra
- somewhat short cables
Good, but...
A great thing when it works.
It was a Christmas present for my husband. He set it up and went for a drive. Then he installed the drivers to get additional displays on the screen. Unfortunately, nothing worked anymore, not even after several restarts - the driver could not be deleted... after at least five (!) hours of trying and searching forums, he found a firmware update. Now it works again. Conclusion: huge anticipation, huge frustration, huge fun when it works.Pro
