![]() Finding the configuration has been tough but incredibly rewarding for the value of the wheel. iRacing is not easy to configure because has to manage a very wide range of peripherals, from gamepads to 4000 euro wheels. My main concern and where I’d expect more differences regarding to what I use. Only one parameter to configure, the strength: 100. Not the brightest, but effective and clear. 13 years has gone by since it was released and is still one of the genre references to test many peripherals. Kerbs, bumps and traction lost are clearly visible, even some weight transfer effect should allow you to race your car comfortably feeling the track. One of my main claims to the Kunos developers is its extremely excessive FFB effects on many little things which works very good with these kind of commercial wheels but awful with DD wheels. Probably the best results with the ingame default values. I didn’t played with the values on the profiler, racing by default. Just install Thrustmaster drivers for the wheel and you’re ready to go. Once in game, the wheel is easy to configure. My test was in a Windows pc with three simracing titles like Assetto Corsa, Live for Speed and iRacing. Steering wheel base also is quiet and didn’t go hot in any moment, so, no loud fans nor anything like that. Pedals has two holes ready to be attached to one of the standard platforms. It doesn’t matter because the clamp works wonderfully and it is very easy to mount. The base has not “standard” holes to be compatible with the most used seats and chairs. Anyway the wheel is compatible with the others pedals brand, like T3PA and its PRO version. Brake and throttle have adjustable inclination and the feeling is completely different as they should. They have tried to make them up a little at least, which I appreciated a lot. Pedals are usually the weakest point in the Thrustmaster wheels and this time it is not different. It is not a big deal or dramatic change and it doesn’t matter in terms of performance, not very much, I meant. The rim is attached to the base, so it is not interchangeable anymore. The motor has change its technology going from brushless to a mixed belt-pulley and gears. This is basically which a T300 racing wheel would offer but at lower level. Brake pedal with progressive resistance.12 bits resolution, a nice 4096 steps on the steering wheel axis.This steering wheel shares almost every features we’ve seen on T150 as: I’ll explain why after reviewing some technical features. I had the chance to test Thrustmaster TMX racing wheel these days and I think it is a very good alternative, maybe the only one, if you are starting now on simracing and taking your first steps. A similar steering wheel ready to run with Xbox One and PC. T150 was intended to work with PS3 and PS4, and PC as well, but not ready for Xbox One. It was another step on its strategy to offering something close to the higher model but at lower price, trying to catch that audience eager to buy a T300 steering wheel but scared by the difference in price. At the end of the last year, Thrustmaster released a new wheel, T150, opening a new front on the low cost steering wheel market.
