Also I bought the T300RS a month or so ago as an upgrade to my controller (and I became love racing/driving games, it just made sense) and I've been enjoying it so far on Assetto Corsa, BeamNG and Dirt Rally 2015.

You don't need 3rd party mods for the T3PA pedals, use the provided conical brake mod and calibrate them properly in your games and you CAN get more reliable braking and lower the chances of a lock up, yeah you lose pedal travel as a result but you DO get physical resistance underfoot making trailbraking achievable and braking far more consistent in general than without it. My biggest issue with the T300RS GT ed is that it costs waay too much new e.g. £354 on Amazon in the UK (or £379 from TM directly) vs say the CSL DD ready to race bundle with the added Loadcell pedal and desk clamp costing just £488.20. The 2nd biggest problem with the pedals is the same issue you get with the G series pedal sets, dust and dirt ingress into the base which invariable ends up trapped in the gearing mech connecting the pedal pivot to the potentiometer, potentially causing pedal flutter of 1-5% on the brakes or an inability to get max throttle if even a single hair gets caught in the mech, in the 6 years I had mine I went through 3 sets of T3PA pedals adding £240 to the overall cost, through either pots wearing out or dirt becoming trapped and being ridiculously hard to clean. True it's a great starter wheel and I used one for around 6 years but imo you're far better off getting it 2nd hand off Ebay for £150-200 and then getting the T-LCM pedals which can be found 2nd hand for £60. hell I'm seeing the non GTE versions for £100, meaning you can get them both for £160. The wheelbase itself is practically bombproof and afaik my old wheel is still working just fine 8 years after I bought it. Just don't buy it brand new. If you have the money to buy brand new? Then save an extra £130 and get the CSL DD with LC pedal set and get a much MUCH better product from day 1.

@OCRacing Ай бұрын

Honestly this is probably true. At the moment, neither Fanatec or Moza are targeting the VERY entry-level market. However, I wouldn't say the T300 is in that segment either, at it's current $450, I would say this is very much in contention against the R5 from Moza and CSL Wheelbase by Fanatec.

The cockpit mount for the pedals is not overkill because they do slide across the floor. I have them and before I mounted them they always moved. And if you use the conical mod or a DIY loadcell, you will definitely need to mount them.

I am between this and a DD bundle solution (not for cage). The problem is that I want it for both PC and PS4 , be able to put it at table and not to make noise like 923. Unfortunately, the cheapest I have found is Fanatec gran turismo gg pro but it costs 600+ euro :(

@pyy9316 Ай бұрын

I used to have two setups, G29 and T300, one for college and one for home. Back then, I felt like G29 was like a toy to me compared to T300, it felt so loose and I was about a second per lap slower on G29. Several months ago I bought DDpro to replace G29, and to my surprise I'm not significantly slower on T300. But after using load cell pedals, it's hard to find the same consistency on T3PA. So I think I'll be purchasing TLCM for the my next upgrade. But for those who are looking for a new setup, I would definitely not recommend T300. A T300 with TLCM is almost the same price as the cheapest Fanatec DD wheel with load cell or a pretty good Moza wheel bundle. Not to mention that T300 has cooling issue, the force feedback lost about 50% after playing for like 20 mins. I did some modifications to fix it and it's fine now, but you can just plug and play if you go for other better wheels.

@shawndixon4536 Ай бұрын

About 2-1/2 years ago, I bought a used T300RS GT with used T3PA-Pro pedals (these pedals are practically full metal and can be inverted, which mine are). I ditched the stock wheel rim and have a new Sparco P310, and added a new TH8A shifter and a new TSS handbrake. I am a massive Thrustmaster fan, as my first one was in the mid 99s with a Formula T1 (which I still have displayed on a shelf), and when I got back into sim racing after a 20ish year hiatus, got a Thrustmaster Ferrari Wireless GT Cockpit 430 Scuderia Edition for the portable convenience. For the amount of time I get to race, for the price I paid for the entire ecosystem, at the time I bought it all I would have paid the same amount for a entry DD base, basic wheel and a 2 pedal set. So I feel like this was the best choice for me overall, and I have no complaints using it with my triple screens, used VR (that I bought for $50 CND) and Logitech surround sound. I would like to do a future update, when one of our kids moves out, and be able to use one of the rooms for a full motion rig, large triples, and then a nice DD with load cell.pedals. I even know every brand I would buy for each item also. I just have to be patient!

I've been using the T300RS ~4 years, for about a year or two I have been dealing with the FFB shutting off due to overheating after about a hour of play in games like DiRT Rally 2.0 and doing rally/off-roading in Forza Horizon 5, and the cooling fan inside is pretty loud and doesn't do too great of a job at keeping the FFB motor cool, although the solution is to mod the wheelbase to use a Noctua NF-A6x25 FLX fan which is ~$20 USD, but requires soldering to install due to the fan using a 3-pin PWM connector if you don't have a 2-3 pin adaptor.

I used this exact wheelbase for many, many years. I switched over to Fanatec DD but gave this to my roomie who is still using it two years later. It's all but indestructible and works more than good enough, If you want well proven durability and simple and low cost upgradability, which includes the quick release (a cheap sleeve lock upgrade works wonders for it) this is still a great option. I'd honestly buy it again, no joke.

@robertcarr4172 Ай бұрын

Hmm this is probably the first time T300/TX and proven durability has been said in the same sentence. This base is notorious for overheating which leads to bad ffb fade and burnt out motors. You are obviously very lucky with the one you got

@@robertcarr4172 And YOU need to stop reading about/looking at reviews on stuff and actually try using it. No one I know, and I know more than a few, who use this wheelbase ever overheated.

Instead of listening to reviewers who use it for a few weeks at best, get one yourself and make up your own mind in the end.

After many years with various Logitech products )8 years with a G29) I found a T300 with the extra Sparco wheel used for $300AUD. The pedal set with the conical brake mod is excellent but remember to calibrate in game. It makes the G29 feel like a toy. I play AC with CM.

@LordVaderPOR Ай бұрын

Got mine for little over a year now (€270 brand new, got lucky with a discount) and have to say it's been wonderful except for the fact that the wheel rim as fewer buttons than the G29 I previously owned (got the SF1000 add-on and solved that part of the problem), and no leather also which was a shame. But overall i felt like that the T300 was sn improvement over the G29, better FF overall and no noisy gears (belt > gears). But the biggest issue with the T300 is that you'll probably have to upgrade the fan, I've had some issues with some kind of overheating and losing FF, and will defo upgrade the fan soon. But even though it's a great wheel, for the normal price that you can get this bundle is way to expensive comparing to some offerings with DD. Makes no sense that brands still practice these high prices on non-DD wheel bases...

I agree with the other comment but I already fell into the ecosystem trap: I was also thinking about Fanatec CSL because bundles start at 400€. But during a refurbished sale at the TM online shop I bought a T300 with Ferrari Alcantara wheel. That wheel is a step up compared to the regular T300, T150 etc. Some weeks later there was another refurbished sale at TM online shop and I added the 28cm leather wheel and LC pedals. That feels more like a real brake. I bought the additional steering wheel to not wear out that nice Alcantara wheel and in case I want to fiddle around with different rims. I just built a sim rig with wood. It needs some tweaking but is stiffer than I expected. And it was fun to think about how it could be done, see some things working and others needing improvements. I'm not good at working with wood but it was fun.

I went to a moza r12 and haven’t gone back. I wanted the option of higher end rims and the sf1000(which I had) didn’t quite do it for me. The creaky plastic just was not it imo

@Tyler_Evans0411 Ай бұрын

Imo If you’re just starting out get the g920 or g29. Yes it’s loud and the gears can be annoying but you won’t experience the slip that the t300 base is suspect to with its belts. G29’s are a lot easier to resell on the open market due to their inherent compatibility and there are less parts to lose. Then when touching on upgrading to another ecosystem you only have to spend ~$200 more than you bought the bundle Logitech for to get a dd kit from fanatec

I think the pedals are different. ne has a clutch pedals and afaik these pedals are better in general. Or you get the cheaper one and upgrade to the LC pedals.

Thrustmaster TX is an xbox compatible version of T300. I have it (using it with Series X) and I love it.

It’s so good I still go back to it from my Clubsport dd+ because of the ease of use across the board. Like goosiest says it’s literally the best plug and play wheel for PlayStation

@OCRacing Ай бұрын

Hmm, never thought I’d hear someone say they’ll go back from a DD+ to it. What exactly makes its ease of use “easier” compared to the DD+? Just wondering because I’ve used both on PlayStation and they both equally connect and function the same on that interface

@erikgonzalez2486 Ай бұрын

@@OCRacing goosiest said it perfectly, no complicated tuning needed to jump from game to game. playstation ACC is especially tricky to get realistic ffb on My DD without excessively messing with the settings. Also certain games like drive-club and other older games just plain suck on Dd drives because they aren’t as compatible software wise as a t300. It just works very well in terms of plug and play on almost all games new and old ps or pc.

Definitely not worth it, that base overheats badly. Unless you run wrong the FFB low and in that case use a G29 instead. If you are new to sim racing and want to start with a legit belt system base and playing on console. The best bet will be a T-GT II which is way better than the T300.

@fu102 Ай бұрын

Disagree (in general) and here's why: 1. While yes this is a sim channel, every channel like this forgets or neglects to mention games like Forza Horizon, The Crew, and NFS type racers (simcade), and for those, this wheel is perfect. As those don't need or use a lot of NMs to replicate real world civilian vehicles. 2. For some reason every channel like this loves to say that Fanatec and Moza offerings are comparable in price. That's flat out incorrect. To buy even the cheapest comparable setups from those boutique vendors it is 2x the price. Not to mention Fanatec having awful customer service and seems to be going out of business (rumors), what seems quite often. 3. Also, these channels never mention game compatibility, only platform compatibility. For the aforementioned games (Forza Horizon for example), The Thrustmaster and Logitec are an out of the box, plug and play experience. Meanwhile the Fanatac forums are littered with people trying to make their wheels function with these games. Bottom line, if you are a hardcore sim racer, yeah, go for the cheapest Fanatec (etc) DD, and build up your rig piecemeal. If you want to play full on as soon as you drive home from Microcenter or BestBuy, then the T300 is your best bet. I built a full rig with a T300, T8h shifter, cheap amazon handbrake, and an A Frame cockpit, all for under $800 AND was playing with no fuss no compatibility issues instantly. No one can even come close to doing that with a Moza etc.

@jochenkraus7016 Ай бұрын

Some remarks: 1. and 3. Thrustmaster and Logitech wheels have quite a long list of games they are compatible with. They also (most of their wheels) support one console or the other. Afaik the cheapest Fanatec base isn't PS compatible yet. 2. Not sure if it's really 2x. Cheapest Fanatec bundle is 400€, T300 is usually 3xx€. Ckeapest load cell pedals are around 200€ for both. But there's quite a rabbit hole at Fanatec because you can configure your own bundles. Add LC brake pedal and a wheel where rim and hub are seperate, 400€ turn into ca. 600€ But to be fair, T300 with interchangeable wheels is not that much better.
