I've had this wheel base for a few months now. My first direct drive product. It's proven to be an excellent product so far. I use it in all the major Sims and it does not disappoint!
Im shocked after PXN used mostly an old madcatz design for the V10 I wasnt all that impressed but bloody hell this is a huge step up for PXN and I welcome more options for direct drive as with prices now I think its time for gear drive and belt drive wheels to either get far cheaper or just go away for good. If they make a universal button box that can take any standard wheel simalar to what Fanatec offer I could see this being a fantastic option, I would love to try the non lite version to see what its like next to my current Logitech G Pro Wheel
I have been using this wheel for a few months now, I play Euro Truck Simulator 2 and rn, I am learning drifting. This is a great wheel and the pedals are freaking amazing. I only wish that the wheel was completely round instead of D shaped.
I literally just picked this up yesterday; wonderful timing! This thing is pretty good for what it is. The pedals feel a bit stronger than the Logitech ones, minus the rubber stopper in the 920. All in all, this is pretty aight. EDIT: I somehow did not put the OTHER spring on the brake and that makes it so much better than the G920 feel wise.
@@Rezamajedi not at this time. I think all of the Moza products (except for the upcoming R3 bundle) are PC only. The upcoming R3 will be Xbox compatible.
@@OverTake_ggI am also hoping that. Also, I have done extensive reviews on PXN v12 DDL and the DDS 10nm base. The wheels can be used with other wheel bases that use NRG style quick releases and plugging in a usb c cable to the wheel and PC. The button box will work independently from the base.
@@imposter4518 yes as long as you can connect it to the PC to get functionality for the button box.i also use my moza KS wheel with the Moza universal hub on the PXN v12 lite base. If you just want to steer I have a wheel with a NRG QR hub on it with no buttons. I use my keyboard to controls everything. Now on Xbox or PlayStation you are stuck, you need to use the supplied wheel.
Interesting that they are somehow skipping round Sony's licencing by adding a dongle, I'd be worried that Sony somehow find a way of nerfing this wheel with a patch to the PS. It's an interesting option for sure, also 10/10 for the shirt Michel, I wish I'd ordered one before they sold out!
As of April 2024, Microcenter has the DDS, 10 nm version, for $331.60 USD, $120 for the PXN wheel, and $200 for the pedals. For just over $550, that is a great price sans the non load cell pedals.
I think having the drivers to be signed is very important for the end-user. I've noticed this myself with a piece of software that I developed, a lot of users didn't want to use the application where only after the application was signed they started using it. It shouldn't be that much of a struggle in theory as it should only cost them roughly 300-400 USD a year.
to anyone owning a pxn v12 lite more than a year, how's the performance until now? currently thinking of buying one in how it's the cheapest bang for buck "quality" that's available in my country
Man I love how there's so so much competition now it's forcing fanatec and other big players to evolve and adjust prices I love it I started with a g29 then went to a 🤝 za R5 bundle then to a R12 with CRP pedals and CS wheel with Moza shifter and hand brake with NLR cockpit I'm currently very happy with the R12 it'll be a long time before I upgrade again
Melhor review do PXN V12 Lite que vi até agora! O mais completo! Passando por todos os jogos! Parabéns!!! Estou saindo do G29, você acha que o PXN v12 é um nível muito acima? Vale a pena sair do G29 para ele?
I have just purchased this wheel - waiting for it to arrive, but quite intrigued as the Moza R3 has just been released. Did you ever get the RGB shift light to work on PC? (And if so, how?)
For 550< or >550 you get Direct Drive System Fully metal base Leather stitching 3 pedal system 6nm torque feedback No shifter or handbrake sadly Quick release system Playstation/ Xbox/ PC compatibility Fully customizable Not bad but im a bit bummed about the shifter
No it also worked when I had it not on the pc before. But it's recommended to have the latest firmware. This might work with their app though, they have PXN for Android and iOS. -Michel
Thanks for reviewing the PXN! There isn't a lot about this wheel. I only found your review and an unboxing. I'm looking at this model, The Fanatec CSL DD Ready to race Bundle and The Moza R3 bundle when it comes out. The PXN seems to have the most bang for the buck but the software makes me nervous. I looked at the App and it looks like its all in Chinese. Anyone have an issues getting this to work with Xbox?
@@OverTake_gg Thanks, I will. Looking to upgrade from a G920 and the PXN, Moza and Fanatec are all under consideration but afraid to make an expensive mistake.
@@sestenwhen Hey fam! I can talk a bit on the software. It is very clearly developed by PXN as it appears to be somewhat haphazardly translated to English, nonetheless it’s readable and generally makes sense and has tooltips for each setting. On Windows, if I recall correctly, the installer is unsigned so it does present the protection screen you have to “Run Anyway” on. Secondly, I run a separate antivirus that quarantines the application executable after it is installed. It claims it’s a potential keylogger, though I haven’t done an actual analysis myself. My assumption (remember what they say about those though) is that Kaspersky thinks it reading USB input is suspicious since the application is unrecognized. Windows Defender does not seem to identify it as a threat. The desktop software is really only used to update the base, pedals, and the wheel itself over USB to the latest firmware. For this reason, I ran the software in a Virtual Machine so I could isolate it if it was snooping around. The good news? PXN also has a smartphone app that connects to the wheelbase over USB. It lets you adjust all of the same settings on the wheel that are available in the software. This is the primary way I interact with the settings and only check for updates every so often.
@@j0rtsy Thnx for the reply. I'm on an xbox so I'm not sure if that matters. After careful consideration I think I'm settled on the Moza R3. Fanatec as a company is up in the air and PXN is not really popular in the US yet. Moza has the strongest possibility of being around in the future if I want accessories or upgrades etc.
Hey there, I have a few questions about this. Sorry if it’s too much, lol 1. Did the chip for the PS5 come with the wheel, or do I need to buy it separately? 2. How did you fix the clutch issue on GT7? Did you unbind the clutch or something like that? 3. Is this useable on F1 23/24 on PS5? 4. Would you recommend this over, let’s say, a T300 RS GT? 5. Can you update the firmware using a mobile app?
I just wanted to Add, its almost impossible to buy the better Gear from PXN currently. The Shop only lists the Entry Toy Style Wheel Sets and even the PS4 adapter is out of stock.
I think I mentioned that they are very linear and in general do the job. Its a decent set for beginners. If you are used to higher end pedal sets, this is not for you. The brake needs more force! :D -Michel
Would you be willing to either do a video or reply with assistance using the PXN on games like Dirt 2.0 or WRC Generations? Loving the wheel on ACC (pc) but I can't get it to work on WRC. I've grabbed the download "force feedback" file and attempted to follow their directions by going into "browse local files" from steam and locating the "devices" folder within the "input" folder but I can't find either the Input or devices folder. Even searched within the game for "device_defines" file and couldn't locate. Any help you can provide would be great as their customer service is not the best although I'm really enjoying the wheel
It's kinda sad that in my country cammus c5 2 pedal cost 600 bucks, csl dd starter pack 2 pedal at 970 bucks and r5 bundle 3 pedal at 750. 2nd hand market is virtually nonexistent.
I'm really like next year I'm aiming to save for a sim wheel too and I so happen to be a sim racing trainee just like those who are learn sim racing.❤🏁
Hi. Can you help me with my 2 questions? Can you test if this is compatible for the PS3? I'm planning to at least use it for GT5 but I don't want to waste money due to compatibility issues. Can its pedal be paired with the Logitech G29? Thanks
Hello, I'm Japanese and I always enjoy your video! I just wondered if it's better than Moza, Fanatec, or Cammus because I'm thinking about buying my first sim and trying to enjoy it with my dad. He plays GT7 mainly and I play Assetto Corsa. Both he and I use a gaming controller so I don't want to make mistakes when I choose our first one. Do you have any advice? I would like to hear anything from you! Thank you for the video!
Konnichiwa! I would not say it's better, the FFB is not the strongest and the PS5 support is not official. This PXN is a affordable entry level wheel! My favorite option right now is the Fanatec ClubSport DD+ to switch between PS5 and PC. Logitech G Pro is also great for PS5! Is it available in Japan? But if you don't want to spend so much money for the start, a Thrustmuster T500 could also work for you! -Michel
@@OverTake_gg Is 6nm enough or real for acc or gt racing? I have watched a lot of videos people playing acc and having 8nm ffb and I felt I need it to make it closer to real.
How good is this? Main reason I want this is because it can work with both PS5 and Xbox Series. I currently have a Thrustmaster T300 RSGT and I use a Drivehub so I can play Forza Horizon on Xbox. But I'd rather just have a single wheel without the Drivehub adaptor. How much better would you say it is, than the T300 RSGT?
Yes, I probably overtuned a bit here and there, because the forces felt to weak for my taste. You can also see some clipping in ACC and iRacing. -Michel
