In my opinion, the best thing you can get for your money currently price / performance: outstanding

I'm a big fan of Assetto Corsa, the F1 GRID series and Co. and since my old steering wheel
a Logitech Driving Force Pro kicked the bucket after a long faithful service
I was looking for something new in recent months.

I've tried almost all its competitors from Fanatec Logitech and Co.
recommendation should me the Logitech G27 satisfy but did not this absolutely!
I really have to say for a price of around 250, this is an absolute disgrace and rip off
As for processing force feedback and the pedals, but anyway this this is not so.

After much study and testing of premium steering wheels I'm stopped in the end satisfied with the T500 RS.

I have this test including time now for about 3 months in use and really have to say price / performance = More than Very good,
the realism delivered in the correct setting is second to none in my opinion, as long-time season ticket holders and users of the Nordschleife.

Pro's:
- Processing (a dream nothing rattles all is fixed the touch feeling even when the steering wheel is not covered in leather, is perfect the same is true
for the pedals)

- Force Feedback (this is really more than very strong with maximum 3000 U / min and a force of 150 Nm and is bordered my
You reflect opinion of perfection, there are various modes and settings with which the ride Scary Realistic
can can can)

- Steering, blind spot (the steering wheel can be up to 1080 ° turn which corresponds to 3 full turns,
which accordingly can be adapted to the appropriate stop with a few clicks of course depending on the vehicle and match,
no matter what position out the precision is always 100% accurate, it can be depending on the modes of the game after feedback centering
as well as from themselves. Is it centrally, it is centrally! And the slightest movement in the desired direction
leads there, too. I could not tell the blind spot and no delay. This accuracy is also in the long run
received since the steering position via a belt motor is controlled, but It has been established through a non-contact magnetic sensor.

- Pedals (It is an absolutely Massive structures of metal, the weight is not what I though given with more than 7kg
but you have reweighed it detects Definitely when you lift it. The pedals are definitely walking through various possibilities
perfectly adaptable and also convinced the feedback from the pressure points. The brake is innately already a very good
Pressure point equipped to whom this is not sufficient can also screw in the traditional beige Realistic Brake Mod
and begin to train his muscle memory)

- Optional accessories (There is pretty much everything you can imagine of steering wheels, shift options to the pedals in which
can be mounted eg requirements of various Fahzeugherstellern and also so-called mod's third party.
For me, the associated H-circuit is still in use which also absolutely convinced. )

- Compatibility (Whether now PC, PS3 or PS4 everywhere it works perfectly without complaint ForceFeedback Availability
is also so give pretty much anywhere Thrustmaster lists under the products on your website all the games on
if any questions are open.)

- Screws (the screw heads of the pedal pad are through the supplied Allen wrench to various mix-ups
sometime around what, but is normal in such heads. A quick phone call or an email towards Thrustmaster,
but brings the positive surprise with the obtained within a few days once a sufficient set new.
For this reason alone of the support, it is a plus for me, making the vexing property of becoming round of
Allen Screws for me forget. Much Screwed socket screws use now times from that nobody can prevent
alternative with nuts is not possible and any other cross or slotted screw is even faster, "round".
However, I still recommend the long run to use your own hex key to longevity there to increase a little.
Who T500 RS in a Playseat or similar Mounted does not have this problem,
since it is only screw to adjust a couple of times and then this has done)

Cons:

- So far, I could not find anything what would I complain, should notice if something I will add it.

Every now and then one reads it the a handful of users from the fan
(It has an active cooling as industrial engines are installed) or the general noise steering feel disturbed,
I for my part can only say there are of this steering wheel a Rev 1 and Rev 2
I have the second version, and there is not the problem of easily audible fan.

Should you get the Rev 1 is this not a problem either sending her back there and let's get a new
and hopes for a Rev 2 or your simply Report to Thrustmaster order this issue and you'll receive a replacement kit
to dismantle with detailed instructions, in the you have to Tuen otherwise basically as the turntable itself
(As if you were another touched down) and after a few housing screws removed,
Remove hood swap fan and reassemble.

"The guarantee is not lost in this exchange itself on recommendation and instruction from Thrustmaster."

With regard to the aforementioned steering wheel volume:

I guess this would be a maybe disturbing if one speaker at "Steamed" Volume plays what but my überzegung after should not occur because either you play on normal speech and there supportive of the sound in my opinion even the acoustic driving experience as this in any way Plastic is used affects the headphones sound so completely eliminated.
No matter in which case, however, I could not be disturbing him.

On the subject of fixing:

The given options whether to clamp or screws for fixing are taken at the right table and optimally,
However, you should be aware that should be due to the weight and the force of the steering wheel of this massif you accordingly.
The mounting on keyboard drawers or on mobile tables are not recommended.

Should you much players are I recommend the long run a Playseat. At first I had a RaceRoom RR 3055
However, these have changed and now have a Playseat Evolution Alcantara in use.

The idea is definitely worth it, such to provide this feature with the steering wheel,
he suggests, depending on model with about 300-400 Euros to the longevity of this price, however, justified.

Now at the end of my design, the straight but seems to me like a little novel remains only to say,
I hope I could help you, and if there are any questions can you ask this like.
If the wish to photos for this is I submit this to you.

Cheers and have a nice Easter Sunday, Skyandsand
